Lightning's house Bodhum:
Lightning was sitting on a sofa at her house waiting for Snow and Serah to come and visit and they will have dinner together. Lightning's house was plain simple just a simple design nothing special two bedrooms and 2 bathrooms. The furniture in her house is just simple the dining table is made out of wood and just a sofa and a television in the living room. Lightning was sitting on her sofa in front of the TV. She was thinking about Hope of what he could be doing and talking in her mind ''Hope what's happen to you is everything ok ''. She couldn't get the thought of hope out of her mind. Suddenly there was a knock on the door Lightning got up to open the door "hey sis how you doing". It was Snow lightning rolled her eyes and said "fine until you showed up". Snow just laughed it off. "Hi Claire nice to see you said Serah while giving her sister a big hug. Lightning just smiled and let the married couple step inside her house. They sat down and have a little chat before Serah going into the kitchen to make supper. This talk went on and Snow was telling something about his job and NORA of what they have been doing they had been helping around the city making sure no monster attacks. Lightning wasn't listening most of the time she was just dazing off half the time. Serah then suddenly spoke "Light is there something wrong you seem pretty down lately are you feeling sick?" "Oh nothing said Lightning I was just thinking about something." "What could that be said Serah" uhh …I...I...Was just thinking about Hope" said Lightning.
Suddenly the room was in silence then Snow breaks the silence by saying "hmm man that brings me back I was also wondering as well you know how is he doing. I also am worried about the kid." Serah then said "did you mean the boy that was with you guys when we reunited again. Yeah said Snow. How is he doing I never actually had a chance to thank him for what he did." Well that's the problem" said Lightning no one knows where he is he just disappeared nowhere to be found I tried to find out his whereabouts but no luck." "I wonder what he could be doing I hope he's fine said Snow."
