"I know, I know, you're right, greater good and all that," Chris steeled herself, "I'm not scared just.....uncertain. Obviously I've never done anything like this before, it's also kinda exciting," she let out a nervous chuckle, "I can only hope Aurora will see the light as it were. But Herbert, there are some other things I think you should know and they're not gonna be easy for you to hear," Chris felt incredibly pained for what she was about to tell him and let out a heavy sigh, "I know you've become friends with that Margarita girl but.....you can't trust her Herbert. She's pledged allegiance to the Redeemer. I was present for one of their meetings as Reaper, I can't quite remember what kinda of deal she made with him or what they discussed but she's joined him,2 Chris let this information sink into Herbert fora moment.

Herbert didn't make any expression. "Why did she do that?"

"I don't know," Chris sighed, "look, it's not that big a deal at the moment. Right now we need to concentrate on Olem," Chris focused herself, "he's top of the priority list. I.m pretty sure he's responsible for that shoot up at Snuff."

Herbert felt like he'd been hit by a hammer. Why had Margarita done that... "Don't tell anyone about Margarita, Chris," he said, feeling defensive. "For me. I need to work this out."
"Yeah, he is. We need to get ready. Wait for him go go out hunting and catch him in the act. To be sure. Let's get back to Campus for now. I've got some people I need to talk to." He smiled at Chris, though, even if it looked sad.
"Thanks for having my back again. I'm glad you're back."

Chris nodded at Herbert's request concerning Margarita. This was his problem and he should decide how it ought to be solved.
"No worries there mate," Chris smiled back at him, "it's good to be back," her smiled widened, "okay let's head back but I'll have to be careful, I can't afford to be seen by the others," she said as she placed her hat back on her head, "we'll split up when we reach the campus, here's my number by the way," Chris took out her phone and exchanged details with Herbert, "contact me when you're ready to move on Olem. I'll try and keep an eye on him, I know his energy signature," she informed him.
Chris unlocked the door and checked to make sure no one was there. When she was satisfied the coast was clear, she emerged near the sinks. Turning around she gave Herbert an annoyed look and threw a pulled punch into his jaw.
"That's for trying to throw yourself off of a roof!" she snapped at him, concern had replaced any anger or annoyance she had previously felt. That was going to be a weird one for Herbert to interpret.

"Why not?" Herbert asked. "They've seen you before. They know you're alive." He moved next to her, checking the way was clear.
He nodded with appreciation at the number and the promise to check on Olem.
Herbert laughed. "I didn't try; I succeeded. It worked, and Nathan saved me, by the way," he added pointedly.
They made way back to the platform waiting for a train.

Chris just grumbled at Herbert's response to him jumping off a roof. She was thankful he was alright but still, she'd grown a little too fond of Herbert to see him killed even after only knowing him for ten days.
"I've technically died and come back twice. I'm getting like Lucio," she chuckled, "but in all seriousness, if we're going to do this, I don't think it'd be wise for me to see the others, especially Aurora," Chris was greatly saddened by her own resolution, Aurora had been a good friend to her.
She just let out a heavy sigh and continued to wait for the train.

Herbert started to feel sad as Chris' emotions pushed against his. "Are you sure, Chris? What are you going to do? You're going to stay on campus, right? But not see your friends?"

"Hmmm...." Chris just looked at the floor, "yeh I guess. What else can I do?" she looked up at Herbert as she posed her question to him.

"Ignore it. We can't let anyone in on what we're planning. Go to lectures, spend time with us. After Signes death, and Alex and Ed never being around, it's starting to seem a long time since that picnic we had. It might be a while till we get Olem or it may be tomorrow. Just don't separate from everyone. It'll be like you're dead again," he said.

"Maybe...." Chris was hesitant to reply, "for now I think I'll play it by ear."

Herbert nodded. Their train finally arrived and they climbed on board, on track to head off to campus.

Herbert shot over London. He focused, reaching inside him, and tapped into his uncle's enhanced vision. It was weird, like trying to squint, but as he did so, everything became clearer. He kept losing it though; he'd have to practice. His eyes iris turned gold and scanned the area for the Waterloo entrance. He shook his head as he lost it and tuned in again. Everything was so zoomed in, so detailed it was unreal. He gasped as he saw everything below.
His eyes finally saw the sign, and Herbert grinned, swooping down. He was having so much fun it was easy to recall Nathan's ability, to empathise with his outlook. His body turned invisible, so no-one saw him as he swooped down, decreasing his speed. Diving as the greatest rush he decided. Hovering down into the entrance he dropped to the ground. He kept invisibility on until he reached the right spot where no-one could see him. He reappeared and walked down to where he was supposed to meet Chris.

Herbert stood at Waterloo underground, waiting.
