"Guess it's a no again. Let's go home." Elektra informed with disappointment and stood up from the wet ground.

It had been the third night where there were no zombies emerging from the graveyard and even from the forest. It was out of the norm, really. Well, none of the things she does is normal anyway since she's the Protector. It was still odd though. It had been three days yet still no sign of them. First they emerged somewhere else than their graves, then they carry weapons with them and now, they won't even show themselves.

Something was definitely up.

And Elektra had to be lying if she said she wasn't worried.

"We have got to put an end on this." She emitted, frustration evident in her tone.

"And the only way is to find the source of it." Henry replied with a knowing look.

"We don't know who we're fighting but we know who's working for him or her. We have to find Vlad." She urged.

"I doubt we can find him tonight since we wasted two hours here in this creepy graveyard." Henry acknowledged as he looked around. "Let's go back to the lair. I'll contact the others and ask for Vlad's roundabouts."

"Alright...I have things to work on as well." She rejoined as they both walked out of the graveyard and headed back to the lair.

Back in the lair, they were not able to get much information on Vlad. However, Luke informed them that one of his pack members had seen him somewhere in the east forest but he soon disappeared, making them unable to track him. They tried to follow his scent, but it wasn't that strong.

"The elves said they haven't seen him so far...but they would keep in touch if he appears." Henry informed as he made his way to her who was sitting on a chair with her hands full. Her left hand was holding a screwdriver while her right was holding a black glove in its place on the microscope's stage.

"What are you doing?" He asked, bending his body down to look at her creation.

"Oh, it's a new thing I've been working on." Elektra replied as she put her screwdriver down and lifted her head from the microscope.

She turned to him with a smile on her face, proud of her work. "I'm not going to complicate things for you...I'm not going to make your head spin by explaining how it works...So, in a 'human' language, it's a glove with electromagnet that attracts the sword's grip."

"Okay, Einstein. Its purpose?" He asked.

"Well, if the sword falls off too far from me, I could just 'call' it." She grinned.

Henry raised his eyebrow. "Like Iron Man?"

"Precisely but I'm powering the glove with the energy transferred to the glove. It's coded to the metal grip of the sword. The concept of it is the same as Iron Man but I'm not putting it in my body or anything." She answered as she stood up and went to the middle of the room. "Let me show you."
