"I am not happy with this," Zoren expressed, seated in the backseat of the car with Atlas. His mouth curved downward as he recalled how Penny had insisted he ride with Atlas while she traveled separately with her new hires. "I think they're going to be a hindrance to our happy ending."
Atlas, sitting beside Zoren, acted as if he hadn't heard a word. He simply stared out the window, watching the passing scenery, though there was nothing particularly interesting outside.
"First Brother." Zoren snapped his eyes toward Atlas's profile. "Should I make them go away?"
"I want you to go away," Atlas replied flatly, still gazing out the window.
"…" Zoren studied Atlas's face before looking away. "They'll screw up in the future. I'll make them go away then."
Atlas shook his head mildly, dismissing Zoren's dramatic words. He often wanted to make people disappear too, but instead, the world just kept getting more crowded.
Had he complained?
