Holstering her handgun, Nikita held a weary look while staring at Theodore after he introduced himself.

Lila's about to introduce herself before Nikita stopped her, informing her that nobody knows their names, nothing more.

So, she's referred to as the Doctor's companion.

"I don't think they're security," V commented that she doesn't think they have much to worry about, neither Theodore or Lila looked like undercover guards trying to weed out people like Nikita.

Shaking her head, Nikita wouldn't budge.

She then asked them, "Why're you here, then?"

There are others who come to the zone, that weren't trespassing, amateur explorers, or scavenging, Nikita rarely encountered them, and it was a reason that led to many fights with Peter.

Shrugging his wide shoulders, Theodore replied that they happened to make their rounds and found their way here.

"Has the radiation seeped into your brain?" Nikita insulted him as she crossed her arms, the way he answered her question, it was like he and his companion decided to briskly take a stroll in a dangerous area.

Shaking her head, Lila answered for him, saying, "No, his brother hadn't called him, yet."

She saw the annoyance in those blue eyes before changing her answer, saying they happened to gotten lost, and managed to find their way here. They don't even know where they ended up.

Confused as she's looking at the two, V abruptly responded with, "You don't know where you are?"

Seeing the confusion in their faces, she realized it as Nikita did, neither knew where they were, it's almost a miracle they hadn't died!

"You're in the quarantine zone," Nikita tells them as she's baffled the two didn't know this, "bless her, she would've killed you two without mercy!"

The zone gives, but she takes, for now she shows mercy to the two traveling fools.

Baffled, Theodore inquired, "Quarantine zone?"

Sharing looks with Nikita, V couldn't hide her befuddlement before exclaiming, "Did you live under a rock for the last forty years?"

Their looks weren't helping and it led Nikita to inform them on the history on the zone, from when the nuclear accident happened, to another incident thereafter, and the series of events leading up to the zone's formation.

It led her to muse to herself that they're not just tourists, but clueless ones!

Seeing how clueless the two were, it put Nikita in a bind, because she knew they wouldn't have money to pay for her services, they didn't look the types to carry rubles, at the same time, she couldn't leave them to wander the zone on their own, else there's a chance the zone might change her mind about them.

Some showed more sympathy than others who're caught unprepared in the zone, but some grew callous with age, and blamed the unprepared fools for their failures.

Nikita felt compelled to help them, at least until they're safely out of the zone, though they'll have to go with them until the completion of the tour, as she feared it's too dangerous trying to escort them to safely and then continuing the tour.

V understood her reasoning, even she didn't want them getting killed by something in the zone, also she found it adds excitement to her tour with additional people on the tour.

"As I told her, you follow my instructions. When I tell you to do something, you do it, understand?" Nikita gave Theodore and Lila the rundown on how her tours worked.
