M and Phoebe had. They took turns at the wheel for the drive to the Norvania frontier.
Meanwhile, M tried to call Nathan again and again, but there was no answer. After an all- night drive,
they were finally at the destination the next morning. Soldiers manning the checkpoint stopped them.

she knew that Nathan was still alive, she felt as if she wasing back to life as well. She clenched

She was dressed in a white shirt, a pair of jeans, and white shoes. Her hair was pulled back in a
ponytail, and she wore a mask that showed only her eyes, which met Nathan’s.
