The Zone was quiet, way too quiet.
Calvin stood in the geometric blue void, dripping water onto nothing.
"Okay, before you say anything else...." Calvin said finally. "I've got questions."
"I'm sure you do." The Blue Reaper turned away from where the window had been.
"Starting with..... Why the hell didn't you just bring us here in the first place?" Calvin gestured around the space. "Before Phillip tried to drown us and we almost died."
The Blue Reaper was quiet for a moment.
"I didn't know I could."
Calvin blinked. "You... didn't know?"
"The Zone is complicated." The Blue Reaper started walking, and the geometry of the space shifted around him. "I can enter it alone easily. But bringing others is something I didn't even know was possible."
"So you just... decided to try it for the first time while we were this close to dying?" Calvin's voice was getting higher. "That was your plan?"
"I didn't have a plan." The Blue Reaper stopped walking. "That was just me improvising."
