"You should have just listened to me all along..."she said as she helped him up with the injured hand.

Alan laughed a bit. "Yeah, I'll remember that." He said to her, taking her hand. "Anyway, we need to keep an eye out for that door. Whatever that thing is, I think it'll be back." He said to her.

Her hand still massaging her forehead, Cassandra sat down against the wall. "What's this all about? What's going on here?" she implored.
Meanwhile, in her home at Rabat, a gardener was tending the violets that lined the walkway. Seeing a shadow pass by, he covered his eyes from the sun's harsh glare. A lone crow was circling overhead ominously. He stretched out his leather-coated arm as the crow swooped down to perch upon it. The gardener carefully lifted the crow's wing and removed a small message. "Hmm, who sent you, fella? This scroll looks familiar, but I can't place it. I suppose it's best that the missus hears about this, eh?" He headed inside with the crow and paper, preparing his usual tasks.

Siegfried stepped off the boat after a long journey. He told the lizardmen to get their things, and prepare for a long walk. While walking down the street, Siegfried noticed the crow he had sent was taking shelter near the house. He asssumed this is where Cassandra was going to be.

The gardener sat down on a bench as he heard the villain approach. His glossy eyes glimmered as a smile stretched lazily across his face. Having let the crow rest and feed for a little while, his chores for the day were half-over. A shadow danced across the cataracts coating his eyes; he figured it was the person whom the scouts had seen approaching from the north.
"Hello there. You seem a bit new in town. Looking for Madam Violet, are ye?"

Seeing Hitake wince, Alan jerked his hand back. "You all right?' He asked her, looking at her bandaged hand.

Cassandra inched over to the couple. Seeing the wounded hand, she put her hand over her mouth and looked closer. "That doesn't look too good..."
((Aack, bad timing. ><))

She saw the couple headed toward the elevator and quickly cried, "Excuse me..." She almost tripped as she rushed to catch up with them.

Siegfried looked at the gardener like she was crazy. "Well, yes. Ca you tell her Nightmare has come for her?" He asked him, getting his face colse to his.
Alan heard someone coming, and got his rifle ready to fire. "Someone's here." He said to Hitake, getting in front of her.

"You're right someone's here. You gave my head a good thump when you charged out of that service area." Cassandra put her hands on her hips but didn't look especially cross.
The gardener nodded knowingly. "Ah, Nitemare. It's been ages since the missus has heard from you. I'm afraid she's not in right now; she's busy in Sacramento. I hear there's a big ol' commotion goin' on over there. She seemed pretty interested in it herself. Had somethin' to do with the Saviors an' all that. Anyway, you'll find her there. Your message is already being relayed to her." He smiled a bit, leaning back on the bench and lifting his head to the sky.

Her expression twisted a bit, obviously puzzled. "Where are... what, my dear?"

Alan then realized it was HER that he tried to shoot. He blushed in embarasment. "OH MY GOD, I'M SORRY!" he said, looking at her head. "I didn't hurt you too bad, did i?" He asked her, looking for any bullet wounds.
Siegfried looked ast the gardener, and then nodded to his men. "I see. But there's one more thing I need to know. What the hell is this? I thought this place would have been devoid of life." He said to the person.
