Macuna adjusted to the order quickly. He walked about with his hood up, ate alone, talked bluntly if at all. Allen and Kanda had left on a mission to find the ghost of Martel, Lenalee was tending to her duties as assistant while Komui was working on some project.

"Macuna, would you like some coffee?" Lenalee asked as she walked by with a collection of mugs on a tray.

Macuna shook his head, "I do not like coffee," with that Lenalee went on past him towards the science division. A short while later Komui came past with a humongous 8-legged robot as Macuna was walking about, "Komui, what is that thing?"

Komui slid down the robots arm and pranced over to him, "This is the savior of the science group! Komrin II!" he said while spinning around, "He's me 100 percent! An innocence-made omnipotent robot. He can decrypt files and care for anti-akuma weapons too~! Life will be so much better!"

Macuna uncovered his ears, "I get it, though I am wary of any robot based off of you in particular," with that last comment Macuna left while he continued exploring.

Jeryy peeked out from the kitchen as he entered the cafeteria, "Macuna!" he said happily, "What's my favorite little bad boy doing up so late? Something I should know about hmm?" he asked with a dainty gesture.

Macuna stood bipedal and turned to Jeryy, "I do not appreciate being called little, nor am I a bad boy. I am trying to acquire the scent of each area. I will move on in a short while."

After Macuna memorized the scent and began to leave Jeryy called him back, "Macuna. I have some questions about you," he said as he took a seat at the table. Macuna sat across from him, "Can you move the hood?"

Macuna sighed and let down the perpetual accessory, "What do you want to know? It is nearly midnight."

"I know, I know. Hear me out okay. Why do you always walk like that, like you're trying to hide?" he asked.

Macuna's tail tucked around his body, "I like the cloak," he said. Jeryy gave him a look and he continued, "I look like a monster; and when you are always called a demon you have an irresistible urge to play the part."

Jeryy shook his head, "I highly doubt you're a monster by any means. Where are you from?"

He looked away, "That is a story I do not like telling."

"You don't have to say anything then. I just wanted to know a bit about you"

Macuna paused before continuing on, "I used to be what is called a feral child. I mostly remember being in the rainforest by myself, hunting tapirs, fighting jaguars over territory, sleeping in trees. Whenever I came across humans..." Macuna paused tensely, "I will not elaborate."

Jeryy listened attentively, "How are you still alive?"

"I think it is because my innocence. I always had it and I think it's responsible for my body. I was not born this way. I learned to hunt from the jaguars. Actually jaguars and I are quite similar."

Jeryy tilted his head, "What exactly did your innocence do?"

"You see my eyes; they're gold like the jaguars. My teeth are large and sharp to cut into meat. My hands are clawed to bring down prey," Macuna slipped his tail from his cloak and placed it across the table in front of him, "This is my most unnatural part. I was always chased away when humans saw my tail and a tail such as this is not on any other animal. My innocence isn't even activated, this is its passive state."

Jerry looked at the appendage with curiosity but refrained from touching it, "This is you're innocence? No wonder you eat so much," he said with a smile, "So your innocence essentially made you a human jaguar."

Macuna growled, "I am not a jaguar. I am a human," he said sharply before calming down.

"Sorry. So how did you get here? You said you were feral, so how did you manage to find us?"

"While I was patrolling my territory I ran into General Nine. I'm not usually active during the day, but I saw Lau Jimin and tried to eat him. When I saw a human in my territory I attacked her and-" suddenly Macuna heard heavy thudding in the distance as both he and Jeryy both looked towards the entrance, "Jerry. I want you to run. I will make an opening if possible. Do not argue with me."

Suddenly Komurin violently crashed into the cafeteria, destroying the entryway before pausing, "Macuna. One exorcist located."

Macuna assessed the situation and activated his innocence before running about on all fours, using his speed to avoid capture. Macuna moved in a blur around the giant machine, trying to damage him with his claws, I still smell Jeryy in here, he thought. Macuna sank his claws into Komurin and scaled it until he was on his back. From there he ran to Komarin's face to obscure his vision, "Jeryy! Retreat while he is blinded!"

Jeryy popped from his hiding place from under the table and ran off. With Jeryy safe Macuna flipped back to Komurin's head and fled, Damn you Komui. You must know how to shut this thing down. Macuna heard the massive machine stomping behind him First I must shake him off.

Macuna sped out of the hallway into the main room which seemed to be nothing more that railings and rooms centred on a huge circular drop. Macuna kept running without stopping and leaped over the rail trying to get to the other side. The gap was too large however and Macuna was falling, and he was falling quickly.

Suddenly the back of his coat was grabbed, "Macuna: Captured," Komrin's robotic voice said.

Death by Komrin or death by falling? Maybe Hevlaska can catch me if I jump. Macuna noticed his tail around Komrin's finger and came up with a risky plan I hope this works. Macuna undid the fastening of his cloak and gripped the fabric while wrapping his tail around Komrin's finger. He then used his tail as a pendulum to crawl to Komarin's arm and jump down to the levels below one at a time until he was able to shake off the out-of-control robot.

He made it down to the waterway where Allen and Kanda were approaching from their mission in Martel. He didn't stop though, instead he continued his search for Komui and headed towards the science division, careful not to alert Komrin to his presence.

Macuna found Komui in the foyer facing away from him, "Komui, your robot is out of control! We need to destroy it!" Suddenly Komui turned with a blowgun and shot at him. Macuna caught it out the air, "Are you crazy?"

Komui put the blowgun down, "Did you only see one shot?"

Macuna looked over his body and saw three darts in his torso, "Stupid…Komui."

Macuna's body fell from the paralyzing drug and Komui began prancing around, "You can't get my Komrin~! But you'll distract him from Lenalee!" he said as he began dragging his adversary's limp body through the hall, "Komrin!" he said to get the robot, "Macuna's anti-akuma weapon desperately needs repaired. Fix it for him."

Komrin turned around to him, "Order placed. Due to damage Macuna is placed first priority." A hand extended from the door Komrin had in place of his chest and grabbed Macuna by the leg and began to drag him in. Macuna was helpless as he watched several miniature Komui's armed with surgical tools in the entrance. The door closed with a final thud as the last of his tail disappeared, "The capture of Macuna is complete. Primary objective reset to strengthening Lenalee Lee."

"No! Not Macho!"
