Estavius left A.C.A.U's chambers and continued on his way deeper into the palace, on his way down the hall he started hearing something, footsteps, something metallic moving through the air, and humming. Out of the shadows walked out a masked figure wearing a white hooded cloak and tossing a dagger dart up and down in the air, it was Zevio, the Scientific Assassin of the Queen's Court. "Hmmm hmmm hm hm-oh if it isn't Estavius, making your rounds around the palace?" "Just checking in everyone Zevio" "Ah I see I see, hope you aren't-GETTING RUSTY!" Zevio suddenly threw the dart he was playing with at Estavius who quickly caught before it hit his face, "...was that necessary?" Zevio, who was suddenly right beside Estavius, put his arm over Estavius's shoulder and then plucked the dart out of his hand with his other hand and put it back on his belt, "oh just having a little bit fun testing your reflexes and all, I knew you'd catch it easily and if you didn't well...I'd just have to stitch you back up myself then." "Uh huh?..." "Anyways I was just off to check on our little mechanical princess then head back to the lab for some corruption research." "I already checked up on A.C.A.U, she's fine and her repairs are complete," Zevio lets go of Estavius and spreads his arms out in joy "Splendid to hear! I only hope she isn't too upset at her defeat." "By the way Zevio, how goes that corruption research, I've heard the...screams." "Honestly surprised that corrupted reapers still do scream! Their minds are soo wasted away and broken I'd thought pain wouldn't even bother them, anyway progress is still slow but I'll be sure to keep the queen in touch with the progress...speaking of, aren't you off to meet her?" "Hmph, good dedcution," "Then I'll leave you to then, hmm hmm hmm," Zevio then walks off, disappearing into the shadows.
