Italy? If you’re still taking to me, I kind of have a favour to as-

Huh?...Where’s -

Come on I thought this thing had dried out fine since the lake...

...Italy?

[There‘s the sound of creaking, as if Knuckles is holding the communicator to tight]

Damn it!

[There‘s a thud as Knuckles throws the communicator against the wall of his burrow.]

[Yup, Minato's checking the frequency, too.]

... Damnit. He's really gone, isn't he?

[wears_a_torc]

...He's better off there.

[foxtamer]

I know. But he's still gone.

... Will you be all right?

[wears_a_torc]

Yes.

[Is currently looking to an Iron Giant to beat into scrap]

I just need some time.

[foxtamer]

... Just take care of yourself.

[Muttered under his breath.]

... All I can seem to do now for people is ask for that.

[wears_a_torc]

I will. I don't want to end up with another chip.

I know that feeling.

[foxtamer]

Good.

I think we all know the feeling, sooner or later...

[wears_a_torc]

How's Zuko?

[foxtamer]

He uh... kinda ran off to hide for a while.

[wears_a_torc]

I suppose we all feel like that sometimes to.

[foxtamer]

Yes, but he's young enough that he actually does it.

[wears_a_torc]

He'll be back.

And if he isn't I'll help yo hunt him down if you want?

[foxtamer]

I know.

Thank you, Knuckles. If he's gone for too long, I will definitely need your help.
