"I'm sorry, but I have no clue as to who she is or where she could be. Perhaps it's best if you went to him for help." Mariette commented apologetically. "I understand that you just had a fight with him, but if this woman is someone who you really need to meet again, then your acquaintances are obliged to help you. If it helps, I can go with you."
In one of the rooms, a huge hulking man of grand stature was lifting weights. His room was designed like a health gym, with dumbbells, yoga mats, bikes, treadmills, and other gym equipment neatly organized. There were towels to wipe off the sweat and water dispenser stationed adjacent to the walls, with a simple mattress and blanket next to them.
The man had wild, brown hair, unkempt and falling down to his neck. He wasn't wearing a shirt, revealing his impressive upper torso muscles, lean and rock-hard but not disgustingly bulging. The man wasn't breaking a sweat, even though the weight was easily 300 pounds, but his repetitions were halted when Corona walked in.
"Gigante we have a problem!" Corona burst through the door with such panic in her voice that Gigante stopped his exercise to acknowledge her.
"What's wrong?" Gigante asked, his voice both annoyed and worried, as he sat up.
"Well, Mariette found some people that needed help getting away from Project Candice so we rescued them and brought them in, and now one of them is in a huge fight with another guest of the onsen and he is like glowing and stuff and it's so scary-" Corona blabbed about, her words coming out way too fast for anyone to comprehend. Instead of trying to calm Corona down by word, Gigante instead rose from where he was sitting and left the room with only a single command to Corona.
"Wait here."
Gigante instinctively knew something was bad. As soon as he stepped out of his room and looked to the right, he could see a sort of chaos going on down the aisle. There was a guest, glowing in blue light that grew more and more intense as the time went on, trying to stand up. Based on his location, he was looking towards the public ladies' onsen, with a foot, presumably Ari's, sticking out from the doorway. Gigante sighed in realization: Corona accidentally brought the guest to the ladies' onsen instead of men's as Ari opened the door. The poor man was probably treated to Ari's figures, with or without something to cover them... then again that would make him a lucky man rather than poor...
Gigante was about to shrug this event off of his thought until he took a second glance. The blue light emanating from the guest was revealed to be an electric energy, almost as if it was overflowing from the host. If left alone, the electrical energy will literally burst from the man, possibly causing the entire building to go down. Gigante wasn't about that at all, so he took action, leaping towards the guest in one, two, three quick sprint as his arm began to... somehow expand into a large kite shield.
