Getting to the human settlement with the help of Lucille's teleportation, X walks towards Abigale's home. He opens the door to be met by a Bella, who's been doing reps of sit-ups, she stares back at his ripped and bloodied clothes. They both stare awkwardly at each other for several moments, till finally Bella breaks the silence.

"Why do you look like hell? Where's Abigale?" She says as she supports herself to stand up, standing on her tippy toes she also notices the two figures behind him.

"Better question; shouldn't you be resting? You had pretty nasty injuries." X raises an eyebrow, looking her up and down; scanning her bandages.

"Elven regeneration, all I needed was some good night sleep and some magic here and there now I'm as good as new." She explains as she starts to take the bandages off revealing her fair skin, scarless as if she just came from a beauty pageant. Her sports bra like top and her lower traditional elven trousers no longer hidden by the cloak she was wearing, really reveals her beauty in X's eyes.

With a very focused expression, X stares intently at Bella's body and face. Semi-entranced by her beauty, he catches himself as he stares into her eyes. "Ehm ehm ehm!!! Anyway! Let's go, we need to get on the move, our target blew up the clock tower in night city last night. Using some C4 and a wireless detonator, his plan mainly focused on shifting the blame to humans." He explains as he averts his eyes from eyes, which she raises a questioning eyebrow in return.

"Well then, that means there might be an attack heading on AR. This can lead to huge problems, humans won't survive what would come next." Bella responds, as she puts the rest of her gear back on. Standing in front of X, she nudges him forward.  "Well? Come on, let's go. We don't have tine on our hands, humans might be dying right now." Bella exclaims, frustration draws itself on her face as the thought of a bigger schemer angers her.

X steps back; allowing Bella to exist the house. Now that she's in the clear, she sees both ladies standing on each side of X. She looks at Lucille and gets the similar anxious feeling she felt when she first X, she does her best to hide it then turns her gaze towards Nisu, who's staring back intently with glowing green eyes. Both of them stare up and down each other, then nod.

"Let's get out of here, humans are starting to freak out. We don't need more causalities." They start walking to the pulley Farris cart, all of them squeeze in the cart which X starts to pull on the ropes to elevate the cart. Exiting at the top they all start walking towards the city, after a couple of hours they walk enter the city heading towards the clock tower. When the reach the tower, the sift through the rubble looking for any more details.

X taking perch over a broken down gargoyle that is towering over the wreckage, his even brighter golden eyes scan the wreckage. Moments later, Nisu leans next to the gargoyle. Her eyes emanates a grid like ray that follows her eyesight as it hovers over the wreckage. After several minutes Nisu looks up at X.

"Xenoel, I have constructed a hologram of said building we are investigating. I am able to recreate the structure if requested." Nisu announces, Bella tilts her head at the name, X cocks an eyebrow and Lucille cracks a smile.

"I'm sorry what? Xenoel? The hell is that?" X looks down at Nisu, confused by the name bestowed upon him.

"Negative, access to this information is prohibited by- error! Ee-error! Error e-error!!" Nisu grabs her head is it rattles about. "Overload system! Error! Error!" Her chest Hums louder, eyes glow brighter and steam starts to emanate from synthetic skin.

X rushes down to Nisu and hold her head. "Kid! Kid calm down! Stop trying to access the info!" The humming from Nisu's chest dies down a bit and goes back to its low frequency.
