Chapter 96: Ache

"Did you meet him?" An oddly familiar voice asked as Eclipse opened his eyes, staring at the vast emptiness that seems to extend further and further in front of him. 

"Well, hello to you too." Eclipse chuckled at the same cluster of white hair falling over the person's eyes. "How are you doing? Are you well?" 

The man suddenly paused before breaking out into a chuckle. "I apologise, my manners are lacking." 

"That's alright. You seem tensed." Eclipse said, walking to him and taking his hand in his. He stared at the muscles on his hands that are contracting, the nerves in his body also seem to be dead stiff. "No, you are very tense. Goodness. Are you alright?"

"I'm fine." He said, willing his body to relax. "Sorry. Are you alright?" 

"Of course I am." Eclipse said, pointing at him. "You are the one who is no-" 

"I sent someone to you, did you meet with him?"
