This is my first fic for Strange Days so forgive me if the characters don't exactly sound like themselves. I've really gotten into the show lately because it keeps running on Discovery Kids.

"Keep her safe, Noel. Please." His eyes went wide at the sound of the name. It had been so long since anyone called him that.

"Monica? Monica, where are you? What's going on?"

"Noel, keep her safe," the woman repeated again just before the line went dead. He listened to the silence for about a minute before dropping the phone on his bed.
