Claire looked at Six as she giggled a little. "Oh he's... around... Just getting a little something for you. In fact he actually had to go back to his old apartment to pick it up. You just missed him as well." Claire said as she sat back down on her bed. "So why don't we wait for Chris?"

Zero had remained in Nitori's room. He had been unconscious for a good while now. All because of that one female Maverick... Fortunately after some time Zero's systems had came to a full reboot, and as such Zero woke up from his unconscious state. The red robotic warrior looked around the room, confused at first but upon closer inspection he saw he was Nitori's room back at the Kappa Village.
"Goddammit... freaking Mavericks... I can't believe I let myself get surrounded like that." Zero said as he sat up...
John was a little surprised to hear Koishi say that she was the owner of The Inventory, especially considering how she used to be free of responsibilities four months ago.
"Well to be honest, I still see you as that curious girl from the underground city, so of course I would care. I know you are not exactly a kid, considering you're at least five times older than I am, but you're a good kid. You don't deserve to be stressed out.", John calmly said to Koishi.
Koishi's behavior was very different from what John was used to, especially considering she used to be a very care-free individual, seemingly in an almost euphoric, yet emotionless haze. Just then, John realized something, something he couldn't believe he didn't notice until now. Koishi was no longer acting that way. She was showing other emotions. All of a sudden, John looked down to Koishi's third eye and saw that it was open.
"I honestly didn't notice that your third eye was open until now. What happened?", John asked in slight surprise.

Six was a little surprised that Chris got him something, especially considering that Chris said he didn't get Six anything. Perhaps it was simply Chris trying to set up a surprise gift, trying to catch him off guard. After Claire sat on her bed and spoke, Six followed suit and walked over to the bed.
"Sounds good to me.", Six said as he was about to sit down, but quickly stopped when he realized his armor was still a mess.
Six was still wearing his battle-damaged armor, and had holes, cracks, and scratches on it. His helmet was not on at the moment, which meant that his energy shields were not active. He would end up making the bed messy, so instead Six grabbed a nearby chair and brought it next to the bed.
"While we wait, I should probably give you your gifts. Do you want them now, or when Chris gets here?", Six asked Claire as he sat down.
Kawashiro House - Kappa Village - Gensokyo EVE whirred about, Nitori's room covered with her surveillance system. As soon as Zero woke up, the mechanized female's voice bleeped: "Subject Number 001 - Zero, awakened. Overriding automated system."
Silence for 20 seconds.
"Hello, princess. How are you feeling?" EVE's voice asked, her mechanized voice less machine-like and more... human-like.

"I feel like crap that's what. Fortunately my internal damage isn't severe." He said as he stood up. "By the way where is Nitori? I need to see her. More importantly why did she bring me here instead of sent me back to the Maverick Hunters?"
Kawashiro House - Kappa Village - Gensokyo "Hold still, sweetie, let me fix you up a little bit." EVE assured Zero as little tendrils began sprouting from the walls. EVE was the strangest out of all five of Nitori's nanometal drones, being able to infest any surrounding areas and mechanizing them. It was as if she was also biological. The tendrils began their work, zapping any dents on Zero's armor away, scanning for any malfunction, and the likes.
"Nitori is out. A guest of ours went and fell so she had to carry him off to Eientei. She'll be back soon, she took ADAM."
"I am pleased to meet you both. I am known as The Dovahkiin.", the Dovahkiin calmly said to Kris and the Bombinomicon.
After speaking, the Dovahkiin turned his attention over to Max and spoke.
"I've gathered as much as I could from the chest, but I cannot carry any more. What should we do with the rest?", the Dovahkiin asked Max.
After a moment, Max looked over to the large chest, then over to Kris and the Bombinomicon. To be honest, Max still didn't completely trust Kris and the Bombinomicon, but then again, he was always slow to trust people. At least he trusted them enough to know they would protect him. After a moment, Max spoke.
"I'm going to carry the chest, but if we get attacked by anything, I'm going to rely on you guys to protect me.", Max said to the Dovahkiin, Kris, and the Bombinomicon as he walked over to the chest.
After making his way to the chest, Max then began to lift a corner of the chest off the ground, testing to see how heavy it was. The chest had to be at least 200 pounds (91 kg), making it too heavy for a normal person to lift. Luckily for Max, he was wearing power armor, boosting his strength beyond what a normal human could carry.

The Inventory "A lot of things happened at the end of that whole Devourer thing." Koishi said, sitting down on a crate. "After me, Isaac, and I believe a Hank Wimbleton and his friends escaped from the Consumer, me and Isaac talked for a while. He actually showed feelings of friendship towards me. That's when it happened. My third eye opened, and I almost died because of it. Satori saved me, but after it fully opened she simply came up to me and kicked me out of Chereiden for some pointless reason. Isaac was the only one there to help me, and later, he left too. Winslow died a month later of poisoning and he let me in the will as the new owner of this place." Koishi had tears forming at her eyes.
"I hate it, I hate all of it. I just want things to go back to normal, where I wasn't rejected by my big sister, where I don't have to put up with the responsibilities of running this gargantuan place. I just want it to go away."
Sometimes when you're driving down a road, a bug hits your windshield. It's ugly and unpleasant, but you just activate the wipers / cleaning fluid and it's gone in a few seconds. It's just part of driving down the road. You don't dwell on it, because that'd be silly. Bugs aren't worth the time.

Claire looked at Six and smirked a bit. "Let's just wait for Chris. I think it would be better if you do." She replied as she almost began to fall asleep... She was a bit tired. After all she had been up the night before and hadn't gotten much sleep. The reason as to why was because Chris had kept her up... not on purpose though... Chris had been getting angered when he sleeps. Something that's... not common for him or anyone she knew. She didn't think nothing of it though. After all it is Christmas, and none of Chris's other friends have been found. So of course he will be upset.

"Very well." Zero said as EVE began repairing his damaged armor. After his armor was fully repaired Zero turned to EVE and nodded. A basic and somewhat thank you, but it is Zero's preferred way of saying "Thanks"
"Listen I have to get going back to my HQ and report everything that happened personally. If I don't I'll be in some serious trouble with the higher ups EVE. Know where the nearest teleporter is?"
As Max was injected with the shot it didn't seem to do much to him though. However his body seemed to calm down a bit.
Max's Dream
Meanwhile the chains in Max's dream seemed to break as Max was slowly coming to consciousness. Things around him began to form once more as everything returned to normal. The field of flowers, and his mother. After everything returned to "normal" Max was set free of the chains near his mother who had embraced him warmly with a soft and warm hug. "It's okay... Just wake up... please wake up for me..." His mother said as everything seemed to become blurry
Eientei - Gensokyo
In the real world Max slowly came to consciousness as he sat up and yawned. Almost like he woke up from a perfectly normal nap. However there was a few tears in his eyes, which are remnants from his dream... from remember his mother... He simply looked around the room, obviously a bit confused as to where he is. "W-Where am I...?" He asked, sounding obviously groggy.
Eientei - Gensokyo "Oh, so you've awakened." Eirin commented from her desk. The bed and the desk was separated by a curtain, so Max could not see who this voice was from. "How are you feeling? Nauseated? Hypothermia?"
