"I'd like that." Professor tells him.

"Let's do it like this than shall we. An exchange of sort. A business transaction. You get to ask me a question and I will answer completely honestly no lies no twisted truths. In exchange I get to ask you questions of equal value and importance and you do the same. If one answers their question the other isn't allowed to refuse to answer theirs. How does that sound?" Zeek drinks his coffee calmly.

"It sounds like a game." Professor says flatly.

"I guess." Zeek hummed.

"How about we start it over dinner. I know a great place." Zeek smiles at him. "Besides... far too many ears and eyes here." Zeek explained.

"Alright." Professor nodded.

Zeek takes Professor to a fancy restaurant and they get the most private seats in the restaurant. They order their food and it's delivered to him. Professor notices Zeek only ordered sweet things and refuses any ice in his drinks.

"Do you find everything to your liking Professor?" Zeek hummed eating a strawberry cheesecake.

"Everything is delicious." Professor tells him honestly.

"That's good. I'm glad. Now I'll ask my first question. Why did you try to get me in trouble?" Zeek asked.

Professor shifts a bit uncomfortably, "Trouble with whom might I ask you're referring to." Professor asked.

Zeek glared at him making Professor nervously drink his drink. Zeek taps the table thinking for a second.

"Very well then. I will give that one to you for free. Your tracker would cause me much distress and problems among the people of this society. Not that I can't handle such problems, but it would become rather bothersome to clean up." Zeek explained and gives Professor a smug look.

"It doesn't answer the question of why it would get you in trouble." Professor pointed out and Zeek made a strange inhuman clicking noise from his mouth.

It was a weird sound. Like teeth clicking together maybe?

"Haha." Zeek laughed, "You're a sly one Professor. I'll give you that one." He seems to be enjoying himself though.

"Let's just say... for now... I've got big plans for everyone here. And people like you and others might not like those plans and try to stop me." Zeek hummed.

"Is that so?" Professor asked with a bit of fire in his eyes.

Zeek laughed feeling way too giddy about all this, "There's not many who can compete on me on a mental level Professor. I can't tell you how much it deeply satisfies me to met someone like you that can to a degree." Zeek hummed.

"But you do not have the courage to stop me. Your will is weak." Zeek tells him, "You hide many things well, but fear not so much." Zeek hummed.

"So... perhaps instead I can offer a compromise... Surrender... don't even bother trying to stop me. Your lives will be spared. Only those who get in the way will... well... You know. They'll be taken care of as seen fit." Zeek hummed.

"This doesn't have to end in a slaughter or a war Professor. I'm not out here to just mindless go on some murdering spree if that's what you're thinking. My plans involve keeping the people of this society alive so long as they don't resist what will come. So... just surrender. You and you family. Don't fight us. And you'll all won't have be... dealt with accordingly." Zeek explained calmly.

"Dealt with how?" Professor demanded.

Zeek laughed as he drinks some wine, "Dispose of. Killed. Punished. Tortured. Broken. Beaten. Whatever needs to be done to either make those that resist comply or to simply remove them from being an issue by taking them out of the equation all together by ending their lives." Zeek explained coldly and cruelty yet his voice was soft.
