Chris was stood round the corner, leant against the wall, hat tilted forward. When she spotted Herbert, she went over to him.
"Follow me," she ordered as she walked across him, not giving him any time to respond. She just kept right on walking, heading towards a maintenance access door.

Herbert thought she looked like a weird detective, but he was willing to play game. He walked after her, glancing over his shoulder as he did. He tapped his uncle's vision, trying to determine anything suspicious. It made him feel better but he wasn't experienced with the power and he doubt he saw anything even if it had been there.

Powering up slightly, Chris jolted the door and ushered Herbert through it, checking to make sure no one saw them. The tunnel they had now entered was dimmly lit, the lights rapidly flickered. Chris continued to walk down it, stepping over and ducking under and pipes and tubes.
Eventually they came to another door and Chris did her thing again to open it. Stepping out, they were now walking along an old abandoned train track. Following it down, they then came to a large room, most likely part of an old station.
Chris placed her bag down against one of the pillars before throwing her hat and coat on top of it. She let her hair down and began to toss it a bit.
"Not exactly what you had in mind is it?" She smiled softly at him.

Herbert looked around at the dank train station. "No, my dream showed a forest... though they have been kinda allegorical. Doesn't exactly have the gentle, clean vibe of the woods, with the lake," he noted. "But I understand why you can't go there. Why we can't go there."
He turned back to her, spreading his arms. "Where have you been, Chris? Why have you been hiding?"

Chris looked down at the ground and rubbed her face with her left hand as she let out a heavy sigh.
"I've just had a lot on mind recently," she confessed, trying hard not to let too many emotions out (OOC confusion, being torn, uncertainty and a little bit of fear) "but don't worry, I'll be ready for when you need me," she raised her head to look at him and smiled wryly.

Herbert felt himself get saddened by the emotions she projected, and moved closer. "Thank you. But don't be uncertain. And don't be afraid!" He smiled. "You have friends and you can tell me anything. Please, tell me what's wrong?" He leaned in even though they were alone. "is it Olem? I'm sure we'll get him in easily enough," he said, sure of their chances.

Chris just grimaced slightly and shook her head. She didn't like showing any kind of weakness.
"No no I'm fine. Let's just get on with training," she said impatiently as she quickly strode into the middle of the room.

Herbert frowned. He'd get to that later. "Right, so, how do you do it? What's up coach?" He nudged her shoulder, smiling. "Cheer up. You were only mostly dead."

"How do I do what exactly?" Chris asked with a puzzled look.

"You're training," Herbert clarified. "What are we going to do? Spat?"

"You wanna spar?" Chris' puzzled expression remained.

Herbert shook his head. "No, I just-" he looked curiously at Chris. She seemed off. "No, you said we'd start training. So what do we do first?"

"Well....first off I usually warm up and get loose but I already did that this morning," Chris began to explain, "then I guess I just practice my moves and techniques and then combine them with my powers. Though a lot of the time i just spend it meditating hahaha," she sheepishly giggled as a smile returned to her face.

Herbert nodded. "I was meditating in my dream actually. But, I don't know, last time I fought someone I didn't come off so well. Would you mind sparring with me actually? Then maybe I could show you some of the powers I've been learning? Guess we should know what we can do if we want to take on Olem."

"Erm okay....are you sure? We don't wanna end up injuring each other," Chris hesitated to support the idea, "then again we're gonna be fighting so we'd best be prepared," her fire for combat was reignited.
