Manhattan, New York
Mohinder Suresh, Matt Parkman, Molly Walker, & Noah Bennet
The four individuals were seated around the dining room table. A world atlas was placed in the center along with one tack. That was all they needed because Molly was only asked to find one person and one person only: Haji. Molly took a good look at the picture of Haji which was provided by Joel Goldschmidt the 6th. But, this wasn't an individual picture of Haji. Right next to Haji was his queen and master, Saya Otonashi. Saya was currently in her long state of hibernation.
"Are you ready?" Matt asked. He wanted to double check with Molly to see if she wanted to do this. Both Matt and Mohinder wanted to avoid the fiasco when Molly was in a mind trap when confronting the "Nightmare Man," Maury Parkman. Looking to Matt, Molly gave a nod of assurance.
Mohinder turned to face Matt, "I think she's ready." He would face Molly, "you sure about this?"
"He's not like the nightmare man," Molly answered.
"If you get scared, pull out, I can do the rest," Noah instructed. He didn't want anything bad happening to Molly. It was Noah's paternal instinct. "This Haji might not be the nightmare man, but nothing is certain."
Molly nodded.
"I'm ready," Molly said as she closed her eyes. That was when she started to look for Haji's whereabouts. Red Shield didn't know where Haji was in the first place. The next best thing would be to use Molly Walker. It was a fascinating thing about the Company, they were self-reliant and depended merely on evolved humans.
Before Linderman's death, Molly Walker was used. She was deemed to be the Walker Tracking System. Noah came close to killing her. However, Matt intervened and said that nobody was going to hurt Molly. And from there, Molly Walker would be in the custody of both Matt Parkman and Mohinder Suresh.
Holding the pin in her hand, she would move it around on the world atlas.
"He's on the other side," Molly said.
Mentally, she was being drawn to Haji's location. She was getting brought into Japan. But, Molly's hand didn't touch in Japan.
"I can see him," Molly explained. She then placed a pin on the small island of Okinawa. "He's in Okinawa..."
"You did good," Noah assured.
"Wait," Molly replied.
"What's going on?" Mohinder asked.
"Haji's at this place. The Miya-Miyag-goo-soo-koo... Miya..miya..goo...soo...koo...," Molly said trying to pronounce Japanese. She had failed miserably in pronouncing it.
"Miyagusuku?" Noah asked.
Molly nodded.
Noah Bennet happened to know a great deal of Japanese.
"Miyagusuku Family Grave... Haji's playing a big violent... As big as he is," Molly explained with her eyes still closed.
"A cello?" Mohinder asked.
Molly nodded. "He's playing the cello in front of the grave..."
The girl kept her eyes closed as she watched Haji play the cello in front of the grave.
"He's playing it for someone," Molly explained. While her eyes were closed, Molly could watch Haji play a very melodic tune in front of the grave.
"He looks sad," Molly added.
"Sad?"

Haji
Haji immediately stopped playing as if he had sensed something not normal. He could sense that someone was watching him. But, he didn't know who it was. Casually, Haji would stand to his feet and look around. The Chevalier could sense that Molly was watching him by some means. However, Haji didn't know it was a little girl named Molly walker watching over him. Not taking any chances, Haji was on guard.
"Who are you?"
The man turned towards his right and his left. He hadn't sensed an actual physical presence. But, Haji knew that someone has been watching over him. When Haji asked, nobody had responded.
"Again, who are you?"
With that, Haji removed the bandages from his right hand. His right hand was inhuman and it had sharp claws at the tips of the fingers.
Haji didn't have any telepathic powers and neither did Molly. There would be no definite way that the two of them could telepathically communicate with each other. But it was interesting as Haji paced around a few steps trying to find the person that was watching him.
Molly wanted to communicate with him. But, she lacked the ability to communicate with him.
"Why are you watching over me?"
There was only silence.
"Whoever you are, I won't let you get Saya," Haji warned.

"Molly, what's going on?" Matt asked. He was very concerned with the amount of time that Molly was spending on the search for Haji.
"Haji knows I'm watching," Molly answered. "He's asking me who I am."
"What else?" Matt asked.
"He said he's not letting anybody take Saya," Molly answered.
"You can watch me all you want, but I will not allow you to disturb Saya's sleep..."
"He said that he's not letting me disturb Saya's sleep."
"This can be problematic. From what Joel said, we need Saya," Noah explained. "This Haji will let us take Saya easily."
"We shouldn't take Saya from him like that," Molly protested.
"As Saya's Chevalier, I must protect her at all costs..."
"He said he's Saya's Chevalier," Molly answered.
"What's a Chevalier?" Matt asked.
"Chevalier is French for knight," Mohinder explained.
"Joel said that this Haji person was Saya's knight and protector," Noah explained.
"I can't talk to him," Molly explained. "Matt," she called out. "Only you can talk to Haji," Molly explained. She was right, only Matt would be able to talk to Haji due to his ability.
"Matt, we need you to enter Molly's mind and use that to communicate with Haji," Noah directed at Matt. He turned to face Matt, "you're the only one who will be able to talk to Haji."
"Haji's not a bad person. He just wants to protect Saya," Molly pleaded.
Matt took a deep sigh, "here goes..." He would place his hands on Molly's shoulders. Using his telepathic abilities, Matt would dive into Molly's mind. Matt too would have his eyes closed. He would hope that this would turn out much better than taking a good look at those Chiropterans.
As he dived into Molly's mind, Matt would be seeing what she would. But it would be a stronger extent as Matt would use Molly's mind and get into Haji's mind. Matt too would be in a temporary trance while he would try and communicate with Haji.

Haji
Haji had stopped in his tracks as he turned around to see Matt Parkman standing in front of him. The Chevalier had looked Matt up and down as he was sizing him up. Matt didn't seem to pose a threat as Haji lowered his guard a bit. But, he was unsure what to expect when Matt Parkman had miraculously appeared in front of him.
"Are the the one that has been watching me?" Haji asked.
With their minds linked, Molly came out of hiding behind Matt. She walked forward towards Haji and offered him a handshake.
"Are you Haji?" Molly asked politely.
Haji looked down to Molly, he would kneel down and shake her hand. "Were you the one that was watching over me?"
Molly nodded.
"Why were you watching me?" Haji asked out of curiosity. Since it was a little girl that was watching over him, Haji had started to get very curious about the matter at hand. But, he was suspicious on why a little girl like Molly Walker was looking for him. However, Haji would continue to go along.
"I'm Molly," Molly introduced herself.
A gentle smile came across Haji's face, "Yes, I am Haji. It is nice to meet you, Molly." He then looked up to Matt, "and you are?"
"Matt, Matt Parkman," Matt answered introducing himself.
"I'll remember that name," Haji replied with a calm and casual tone of voice. He knew that this was by no means a casual visit. These people had come to great lengths to find Haji. "Matt Parkman, why were you looking for me?"
"We need the help of you and Saya," Matt answered.
Haji rose to his feet. He would look at Molly and then at Matt, "why send a child to find me? That is very cowardly."
"It's okay, Haji, I told them I wanted to," Molly explained. "I'm the only one who can find you. My power is finding people. Matt's power is reading minds."
Haji looked at both Molly and Matt. It just came to him, those two were also evolved humans. "You two are just like Kai." He would look back at Matt, "why do you request my help?"
"Chiropterans," Matt answered in a disturbed tone of voice.
Haji could sense the concern in Matt's voice.
"There numbers should have dwindled," Haji responded a bit interested.
"It sure as hell doesn't look it," Matt replied.
"We can't disturb Saya's sleep," Haji explained. He had remembered what had happened with Red Shield forced Saya out of her hibernation back in Vietnam during the Vietnam War. "Never again..."
"I know about Vietnam," Matt explained. "But it's a chance we have to take. There are others like me. We can wake Saya up and she will got go berserk."
"Too great of a risk," Haji said.
"You can come with us, Haji. Let us take Saya back to New York. We can wake Saya up," Matt pleaded. He was very concerned with what's been going on. The NYPD detective knew that Saya needed to be awakened in order to fight off these Chiropterans. Matt himself wasn't going to take them on all by himself.
"Meet me at this location," Haji instructed. "I'll be here, guarding Saya. When you arrive, show me how you intend to stop Saya from going berserk and mercilessly slaughtering people."
"We will," Matt responded. "Kai is already in New York."
"If Kai trusts you..."
"We will meet you here at the family grave," Matt said.
A second later, Matt and Molly had vanished from Haji's sight. At the same time Haji blinked as if he had snapped out of some strong trance.
"Was I dreaming?" Haji asked himself. For a moment, he had seen a man and a little girl before him explaining that the needed his help and Saya's help. But, Haji would wait at this very location and wait for those people.
But he would remember the names of Matt Parkman and Molly.

Mohinder Suresh, Matt Parkman, Molly Walker, and Noah Bennet
Both Matt and Molly had snapped out of their trances. Mohinder and Noah turned to face the two of them anxious to know the results. Matt was breathing hard as it was a major test of his telepathic abilities.
"Are you all right?" Mohinder asked.
Matt nodded, "yeah…"
"What did that Haji say?" Noah asked. He was anxious to know what Haji was saying in regards to bringing back Saya.
"He said he'll be waiting for you at the Miyagusuku Family Grave," Matt answered. He then added, "You have to leave now."
Noah nodded. He then turned to face Molly, "thank you, Molly. You've helped us a whole lot." Then he turned to face Mohinder, "I'm going to leave now. We will bring back both Haji and Saya."
"What about Claire?" Mohinder asked.
"I'll ask those Red Shield people," Noah answered. He quickly went to the door and opened it where the Haitian was outside standing guard. The Haitian turned to face Noah. "We have to leave now," Noah said to the Haitian.
Mohinder turned to face Matt, "we'll visit Bob and then take Molly to the babysitter's." He then added, "When you see Kai, do not be surprised if he can read minds."
Matt nodded, "I know. If he's like Peter, he can absorb just about any ability."
