[ It's late enough that poor Peter was surely asleep, but when he picks up the phone he'll hear someone breathing harshly, as if they're struggling to keep calm. ]
[ You're lucky Peter has a thing for you, mister, and put you in his favorites list. His arm flops over the bed to grab his phone before it wakes anyone else up. ]
[ He's not hysterical, not crying yet, but he just heard Tomas be taken over the phone while he could do absolutely nothing and it's. Very upsetting, okay? ]
The kelpies, they're attacking. They took Tomas. He called me, running from them and I heard -- I -- we have to tell ADI, we're beyond reconnaissance, they're taking people.
[ There's a heavy exhale from Peter's end, because this is not the direction he wants. He sits back down on his bed, primed with adrenaline that has nowhere to go. ]

Where are you?
[ Wide awake now, Peter begins putting on jeans and a shirt, then his firearm. ]

[ Whoops, that might've woken someone in a nearby room. Marcus tempers himself, with effort. ]
You can't go outside. Tomas wouldn't even tell me where he was, they could be anywhere.

All right. What else did he tell you?
