Science Tower, Nevada


After a few minute's wait, a helicopter showed up, hovering near the window.

"You go. I have business to attend to." Jesus said.

Hank sighed. "Fine. But don't get yourself killed, Jeebs."

Jesus looked up at Hank and shook his large red hand. "I can't guarantee that."

Sanford and Deimos hopped onto the helicopter, Hank reluctantly following along, and made a gesture for the Doomguy to grab his hand and leap on.

The Huntress finished her resting, regaining her stamina and strength, and went on her way, inadvertently heading towards the direction of Isaac's House.


Bamboo Forest of the Lost


Koishi stepped out of the Inventory's door, leading her to the vast expanse of the Bamboo Forest of the Lost. She navigated through the forest, easily knowing the path as she had gone this way many times over.

The wind felt nice on her pale skin, as her third eye blinked as the wind passed. She'd been training with it for a while, trying to gain control over it once more, occasionally turning off the special device Isaac made for her to try and focus her power. For the most part, it was a failure, but on a few occasions, she had been able to pick out voices out of the swarm of voices that had once overwhelmed her.

She concentrated on the path ahead, sunlight trickling through the bamboo. She had considered going to visit the Scarlet Devil Mansion, but her mind was constantly changing. It was far harder to focus on things with her conscious mind. Hard to get used to, she'd guess. Things were so simple back before Isaac inadvertently trigger the opening of her third eye, and also inadvertently caused Satori to disown her. She was fine with what Isaac did, but Satori, she now loathed. She had gotten some sweet payback in the form of several pranks, one accidently destroying a wing of the Palace of the Earth Spirits. The sound of that wing crumbling was music to her ears. She made a smile to herself at that. And no one even knew it was her, not even Satori.




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.

You just discard their guts and keep on driving.

"Yea, yea, I'm back," Ocelot said. "But you can't be greeting people like that. It's childish, and you're a grown woman now... for the most part, anyways. I swear, it's like the others aren't teaching you anything... speaking of which, where are they?"

Aya smiled. "I know where they are! Dio is waiting for Alicia to return from the town. She's studying for me to find out how a grown woman should act in America."

"Hope her eyes stay put. Don't want what happened last time to occur again..." Ocelot commented. Aya continued.

"Borris is preparing dinner, and Lora and Collina are at the memorial..."

That's when remembered. We set up a memoria for Maya. She was killed by Alfred.

"... We can go altogether after dinner, how's that sound?" I said, trying to cheer her up.

"Okay!" She said. "Then Jack is helpin Borris with cooking, and Coron is playing with the birds!"

"Well, I guess that's good. We should find Alicia and the others and bring them inside."

That's when Coron walked in with the others. "Way ahead of you." She said. By the way, ntice anything different with Aya?"

That's when it caught his eye. "Aya, you got your haircut?"

"Yea! Coron helped me out." She said.

"I see... well, I guess it's almost time. Hey Borris! How's the food?"

Borris came out. "It's finished. I recommend everyone to sit down."

And that everyone did.

Isaac's House - Santa Cruz - California | Night

Isaac was a little surprised by Lujuria suddenly dragging him outside, but he knew it was nothing bad. Perhaps she was just eager to get to the dinner.

"Do you know where it is?", Lujuria asked Isaac.

"Yea. It's Apartment is 104 at the Ocean Breeze Apartment Complex.", Isaac said to Lujuria.

"Care for a fly over there?", Isaac asked Lujuria as he held out his hand as his helmet assembled over his head.

Rooftops


The Huntress kept going until she reached Isaac's House as she scanned. She saw both Isaac and Lujuria outside and looked down at them from the roof above. She knew of Isaac, as she had seen him before during her many patrols, though the woman was unknown to her. Her patrol wwas pretty much over, so she simpyl watched, the only thing visible to the two being her glowing turqoise eyespots.

Isaac's House - Santa Cruz - California | Night

Just as Isaac held his hand out to offer Lujuria a ride, he noticed something in the corner of his vision that completely stood out from the rest of the scenery. Up on one of the buildings were two large, turquoise dots of some kind. Isaac shot his gaze over to the unidentified dots of light with his own turquoise, multi-slit visor. It was obvious that Isaac was looking directly at The Huntress, wary of what the unknown, barely visible person would do. Was this unidentified person going to attack? Isaac didn't know, but just in case, he set his Stasis and Kenesis Modules on stand-by, ready to be used at a moment's notice. Isaac had been attacked too many times today to be careless now.

"Hold on a sec.", Isaac slowly said as he lowered his hand away from Lujuria and waited to see what the mystery person would do next.

The lights then turned off, as the Huntress realized that she had been a bit careless. Her stealthy approached sadly stalled, she simply watchd and hoped that he would think that she was gone.

Isaac saw that the two turquoise dots suddenly disappeared, but he was still a little on edge. Isaac honestly didn't know if the mystery figure was gone or not, so he decided that it was best to leave.

"So, do you want to fly?", Isaac asked Lujuria as he held out his hand, but slightly held his peripheral gaze towards where the strange turquoise dots were last seen.

Lujuria could tell something was there... But...

"... Oh, no. We're not going to have any interruptions."

The giant snake came up from the ground, swallowed the two up and dug back underground, the tail shaking the ground enough to cover the hole.

"What?", Isaac asked Lujuria in a confused tone.

Before Isaac even knew what Lujuria was talking about, her giant snake swallowed them both up and dug underground.

The Huntress had already launched a tracking beacon onto the snake before it entered the ground, implanting into the snake's skin, and allowing her to track them. They now had property damage on a list of offenses.
