Jigen walked down the hallway that led to the living space of the hideout. As he walked to his chair he noticed someone else was in the room. "Amado" he said grabbing the attention of the man who was sitting. Amado looked up from his tablet. "Jigen. You looked disappointed" he said standing up.

"Hm" Jigen replied. "Though I don't know what could be disappointing you. With all that vessel searching and testing you've finally have one. And it only took countless lives to get it" he said earning a stare from his leader. Amado made his way out of the room with jigen following. They shared a conversation discussing kara and the vessel until they ended up in the room where all Kara's inners get treated and their maintenance. 

As Amado started preparing tea jigen's mind went back to Solana and his conversation. Minutes later Amado handed jigen a small white cup halfway filled with tea then took a sip of his own. "I don't know when kawaki's gonna wake up. Do you need to work him so hard?" Amado asked. Jigen sipped his drink. "If he can't master that he is of no use to me" he replied.

"He's just a kid. Keep roughing him up like this and he'll just keep on passing out". Jigen closed his eyes. "I don't recall asking what you thought about this amado. The way I handle the vessel is a choice for me to make". Amado side glared him. "I'm sure you'd do the same if you were in my place. But you aren't so your opinion is irrelevant to the matter" he said and finished what was left of his drink.

"You bastard"  amado thought. "Good grief. That's so mean of you to say jigen" he said. "The tea was good. You should make it again for me some day" jigen said as he got up and walked away. "Sure thing" amado replied as he watched him leave the room. When he was no longer in sight amado sighed then walked away. 

Jigen made his way back to the living room. He sat in his chair crossing his legs and placing his hands together resting them on his lap. Isshiki honestly could care less of what anyone thought of him, especially the words of any human.

Minutes passed of quietness when suddenly the room went into a familiar state. "This again?". Reacting calmly he looked behind him. His eyes lingered at the spot Solana was supposed to be. "Shes not here?" He thought as he stood up. He then looked around him to not find her anywhere. Seconds later his vision went back to normal. "What's going on?" He thought making his way to his room only to find an empty bed.
