Description

Panel One: Back in Cal and DJ's room. A medium shot of Cal from behind, facing his bed. He's changed out of his uniform and into cargo pants and a raglan-style t-shirt. His shirt has a white main body with dark red sleeves and collar. Cal is clearly in the middle of unpacking. There's an open crate in the foreground wiht bits of packing paper visible, and large open cardboard box on his bed. On his bed is a leather quiver with some decorative tooling, a bundle of arrows with dark red fletching, an unstrung reflex bow and a bowstring. In his hands, Cal has an wall clock with a octagon-shaped top for that face and a chevron bottom half for the pendulum. He's winding it up.

Panel Two: Peeking over Cal's shoulder, we can see the time on the clock face. It's 7:56. "It's almost time," he thinks.

Panel Three: DJ walking into the room, all smiles and with a rectangular white box in his hands. Cal is in the foreground, turned to face him. Cal is bent over slightly, as though he is putting the clock down on his bed. "Hey, Cal!" DJ says. "You're back!" says Cal.

Panel Four: Cartoony style panel of Cal looking annoyed as DJ shoves the box towards him. There's a fancy round design in gold on top of the box. "Here!" says DJ, "We need to hurry! Follow me!" "Wait, what?" says Cal, "No, we need to-"

Panel Five: Medium shot of the two of them, DJ on the left, and Cal on the right. DJ has one hand on his hip and the other on top of the box. He's smiling and interrupts, "You need to be careful with this box, okay?" Cal is holding the box, looking confused. There's clearly some sort of design on his t-shirt, but it can't be seen clearly.

Panel Six: Close shot of DJ looking at the viewer. The background is round with a light checkerboard pattern. "Don't tip it!" he says, "Just follow me and be quiet." DJ's winking and has a finger to his lips, which are curled into a slight smile.
