Sneak peek at the (nearly finished) rewritten version of chapter "Unknown"

This directly replaces the scene in the original chapter where Lisa, Samantha, and Timothy arrive at the old office building. In contrast to that chapter, where Twilight is playing the part of Lisa, this chapter instead has Lisa herself, free from any and all influence from Twilight. As such, her personality from before the simulation shines through for the very first time in the story.

Leave your thoughts on Lisa's new persona. I personally like to think that it's a toned-down, more playful version of Twilight's personality.

"Welp." Samantha chirped, cutting the engine. "We're here, Lis!"

"Looks a bit... old," Lisa commented, undoing her seatbelt. "I thought that by now, our company would've moved on to something bigger. Y'know?"

Samantha shrugged, opening the door as the keys dangled in her grasp. "Argall wanted to keep the place for you. Said something about keeping things the way you liked them." She stuffed her hands in her pockets, bumping the car door shut and wandering to the dusty glass doors of the building. "Anyways, the real HQ is just a bit further down the road. I could give you a tour if you'd like."

Lisa nodded, shutting the car door after her brother. "So," she trailed on with a comedic smirk, "what you're basically saying is that Argall's been obsessing over the fact that I liked this place."

"Well," Samantha snorted in return, "when you put it like that, you just make the guy seem like a creep. I'm sure he just kept things the way they are because he wanted you to be comfortable when you returned."

Lisa stretched, yawning in the midday sunlight before making her way to the doors of the office. "Anyways, now that we're here, we should probably get to work. Y'know?"

"Yup." Samantha agreed, unlocking the front doors with a turn of the key.

A wall of cool, musty air hit the trio as she pulled the door open.
