"Aren't you back a bit early?" Elle said as X darted in and quickly slammed the door. "So, how was your second day with Agent U?"

"Don't mention that name!" X moaned. "I'm trying to avoid him!"

"You ditched your partner?" Elle said with a chuckle. "Zed is not going to be happy about that!"

"You would ditch him too," X grumbled. "So, why are you still here? Surely your body's feeling better. Shouldn't you be getting back into it?"

"Believe me, I would if I could," Elle murmered as she dropped down onto the couch, suddenly depressed at the thought of her injuries. "So, have you been to see me today?"

"When do you think I had time?! I just spent the last four hours fleeing U! He tried to make me dress up in this stupid costume and entertain a batch of alien children!!" X cried as Elle chuckled at the thought. "Besides, what good would it do to go and visit your body? If I wanted to see you, which I don't but for some reason I am anyway, I can just come home and there you are!"

"True," Elle murmered. "You know, X, it's boring in here."

"Well, if you're so bored, you can just leave! I want my bed back!!" X grumbled as he glared at her. "Maybe you can go and stay with Agent Jay or Agent Kay." His voice quickly took on a coaxing tone. "I think they're doing something interesting."

"It wouldn't matter if they were, since they can't see me. Believe me, I'm no happer about being here than you. So, do you have any movies?"

"You mean movies about humans, I suppose? Why would I have anything with them? I don't like horror!"

"Well, I suppose you'll just have to make a run to the video store, now won't you?" Elle said with a smile. "Better go and get a pencil. I have a very long list for you!"

A little while later, X came staggering down the hall loaded down with a pile of tapes, several large bags of popcorn and a gallon of ice cream. Jay spotted him just as X reached his rooms and hurried over.

"Agent U's looking for you," he said as he followed X into his rooms. "What are you doing with all of that stuff?"

"Agent Elle was bored," X grumbled as he deposited the videos on his coffee table and then started to put some of the ice cream in a bowl.

"Yeah. Right." Jay murmered as he started edging towards the door. The alien had seriously lost it. He had to go and get Kay fast.
