After she had finished showering and getting dressed, a fist banged against Adelaine's bedroom door. Her head looked up from the boot she was lacing up with curiosity before she stood and walked over to the door.
Opening the door she was met with a distraught looking Diego who's hand was shaking nervously at his side. "Hey, you okay?" the girl asked beginning to feel anxious herself as she had not seen Diego this way in a long time.
He didn't seem to hear her as he continued to stare down the empty hallway "Diego!" she raised her voice at him and it seemed to do the trick as Diego's head turned to look at her. Adelaine was shocked to see it looked as though Diego had been crying "What happened?"
"You need to see for yourself" Diego told her moving to walk down the hall prompting Adelaine to close her door behind her and follow closely. "How are you feeling?" he asked referring to the attack the nigh before,
Adelaine of course was fine and told Diego so just as she had the night before. Little did she know that was all about to change as they rounded the next corner and she saw the thing Diego had obviosuly needed to show her.
There in the place she went every night to charge as she looked at the paintings that decorated the wall in front of her sat Grace. Except she wasn't awake or moving, she was slumped forward and Adelaine gasped when she noticed what had happened.
Where Grace's wrist was it had been cut open and all the wires theres had been pulled out. The girl sighed shakily as she traced her fingers along the edge of the robots open hardware.
She turned back to Diego from her crouched position noticing how he couldn't bear to look at their mother who now sat motionless. "Was it those psychos from last night?" She asked her voice coming out as a whisper.
Diego simply nodded and Adelaine felt her eyes swell with tears threatening to spill. They had coming looking for Five and possibly her but now Grace was dead.
Without even thinking she was quick back up yo her feet and moving over to Diego, wrapping her arms around him. Adelaine's head rested softly just below Diego's shoulder as she let a small tears fall.
She felt the older man rub her back softly as he held her close. They stood like that for a moment before Adelaine stepped back and Diego looked down to her.
He didn't want to ask the question right after she saw Grace was dead but this was serious "Addie why were they looking for Five? And how did they know you?"
Adelaine inhaled shakily as she fiddled with her fingers. She knew she could trust Diego and that he'd help her to find Five so she told him about what happened.
"They attacked the department store when me and Five were there" she told Diego whose eyes widened slightly. He'd seen that crime scan and couldn't believe she was apart of it "Five never told me why they were looking for him though so we need to find him"
