Once Christel had finally fully recovered from the injury she had on her arm, she made her way to the Control Room where the Gilman was. "Christel, good to see your back and ready to get to the battlefield. I have been using the intel you got from that EXALT Cell you were in and managed to narrow possibilities around this world where the base could be at. Thankfully, you aren't needing to go to another EXALT Cell to get more intel yet" The Gillman says as it made Christel feel a small sigh of relief but at the same time, just still feels the same as having to go out fighting. "Hey, can I ask something that concerns me Gillman?" She says hoping that it will hear out what is concerning her. "What is that Christel? Is it something to do with EXALT?" It says as she just wanted to tell it. "Well it is about the possibility of getting XCOM to get onto our side to stopping this EXALT Group" Christel then responded wondering how the Gillman was going to respond with what she had said. "Here is the thing, XCOM was made against our kind because of what the Ethereal had done to wipe out your race entirely. I pity all the brave humans that lost their lives in the original war, and that is including your father as the armour and weapon of yours belonged to him during his time with XCOM" The Gillman says as she feels a little down by the response given to her. But she knew the Gillman was right, that XCOM aren't just going to side with the aliens to help save the world.

"Look Christel, I want XCOM to accept us as beings that can bring the peace and friendly relationship that this world desperately needs, in a way that the alien war can be forgotten for good and we can live in harmony together. Deep down, I think your father would want it to Christel" The Gillman says as she looked down thinking about what Gunther would have really wanted. Would he have wanted peace between the humans and aliens? Or would he have have them wiped out of Earth altogether. "Is it possible you can get me to my home? I feel like I should take a look at what he had left me with after he brought down the Temple UFO" Christel asked feeling like it is something she really needs to know about what Gunther would have truly wanted. "Well then. Can you show me where it is you live in this world here. So we can get you there without humans discovering us which would alert XCOM" The Gillman says as Christel nodded her head making her way to a screen displaying the map of Earth. She founded her home city of Hamburg in Germany and managed to put the coordinates in where her house was located thanks to the alien implant letting her be able to read the alien writing as if it was written in German. "OK, I got the coordinates there for you. But how should we be able to get there then?" She asked wondering about the UFO the Sectoid Commander flies in. "Not to be concerned, me and the Sectoid Commander can sort that out. While I communicate with the Sectoid, you should wait for me to tell you the plan cause there is always a risk XCOM will find that UFO. If they do, I can only hope you, the Sectoid and whoever on board will be OK" The Gillman says as Christel could feel a chill about the reality of the risks that could not just cost her life, but the aliens and their chance to not only save Earth, but bring peace to humans and aliens.

Christel left the Control Room that the Gillman was in and wondered around T'Leth to kill time by exploring around this underwater City. As she looked around, she could see there were many aliens out and about, even some kinds she hadn't seen before, that was also not in his father's notebook about aliens. There was one kind that looked like a giant lobster, it looked really scary towards Christel with it's large claws and giant eyes. Another kind of alien that was around looked like reptiles that had webbed hands with claws and a lot of teeth. It made Christel feel like those kinds can tear her to shreds if she wasn't on their side of this fight. This third type of alien she has noticed in T'Leth appeared to be some kind of weird hybrid of a human and alien with a visor with bright red eyes. It also had a tube appear to run down it's face making it look unnerving to look at, to go with the red eyes. While she was thinking about those types of aliens that were in this City along with The Gillman, The Aquatoid, The Chrysalid, The Viper and Christel Heinsch herself. The Chrysalid and The Viper appeared with the Chrysalid still wearing her Psi Armour, they were holding Christel's Plasma Sniper Rifle and the Magnetic Ion Armour that she was given when she first set foot in T'Leth. "Christel, I'm really glad that you have recovered now! We were afraid that we lost you from the wound you suffered from. At one point it looked like you were going to bleed out and leave us!" The Chrysalid said before it immediately dropped the weapon and grabbed Christel rather tightly in a hug. It caught her off guard from getting hugged by the Chrysalid but she eventually did return the hug. "I am not going that easily. Anyway, we are going to be going somewhere, though it is not an EXALT Cell or anything like that. There's something I need to find out" Christel says thinking they both should know about what she is going to be doing. "Oh? Is there something that got uncovered, another scheme that Ethereal has created?" The Viper says sounding like there was chance of it being the case. "It's more about knowing something that has troubled me deeply, that is what my father would've truly wanted being a XCOM soldier and all that. "Oh? You thinking that this person would have wanted to kill us all despite what the Ethereal did to cause the initial war?" The Chryssalid says sounding surprised to Christel. "It's not like that. It's something deep down inside that I just wanted to know what he really wanted because of The Gillman hitting me with the possibility of you guys being able to end XCOM from coming to find you guys when they need to stop EXALT" She said as both aliens looked at Christel in surprise.

"Christel, we got the USO ready for you to depart, the Sectoid Commander is waiting for your arrival now" Christel heard the Gillman say coming out of the Control Room. She nodded her head and made her way to the USO with her Plasma Sniper Rifle in her hands. She could see inside the USO it was the Aquatoid Engineer. "Alright human, let's just get you there" It says as she just nodded her head. She could see outside the USO leaving T'Leth heading up towards the surface of the ocean. "Look human, I know your an important asset for the future of our kind. But I am still on your side till the end, even if your friends try to go cry to The Gillman over my attitude towards you. All I wanna see is this war be done once and for all, I mean surely that is not too much to want right?" The Aquatoid said as Christel felt like the alien doesn't really understand the seriousness or how much of an uphill struggle it would be. "Maybe not but ending a war is a lot more difficult, especially when its a war with XCOM and aliens. With the damage done on Earth from the original war the Ethereals caused, it is going to be impossible to bring the peace we desperately need" Christel says as she saw that the USO had surfaced and was nearby the location of where the large UFO was. "So this is supposed to be some place called Port Eads human, get going before humans finds the UFO" The Aquatoid says as Christel ran out of the alien craft and made her way inside the UFO where she could see the Sectoid Commander was.

"Alright Christel, we are ready to get there. Just as well you got your weapon, there is a nearby EXALT Cell in the area you want to go to. We might be able to get nearby the destination but it will mean handling the Cell" The Commander says as Christel felt unsettled knowing there was a Cell in Hamburg. "Right. Where am I going to be able to hack into the system where we can narrow down where their base is?" She asks wondering if there was a possibly that it would be the case. "Actually Christel, you alone is a risk we cannot afford to have. So what your gonna need is a computer to download the data. Protect the computer until reinforcements arrive to get you and the computer out of the Cell, the reinforcements will take the Cell down so you'll be just fine" The Sectoid Commander says as for Christel it came across as being a struggle to have to defend information in a computer from EXALT. "Alright. Just be quick when you get help since there'll be many of them, and only just one of me" She says as the UFO landed on the ground pretty quickly. Christel walked out of the ship seeing she was back in her home city of Hamburg. "Well, we are here. But where is the EXALT Cell?" She asked as there didn't seem to be anything out of the ordinary. It was almost nothing happened to it at all.

She began walking in the direction that this EXALT Base happened to be. Ahead of her also was her home. The same place she encountered the aliens in the first place, giving her flashbacks about it. She reached her house and walked inside it. She could see the house hasn't been touched, like no one had been inside since her abduction from the aliens. Christel shook her head to regain focus about why she was in the house. To find out about her father's thoughts and grab her laptop to hack into EXALT's data. She ran upstairs to her room and grabbed her laptop that was on her desk. She then looked out the window in front of the desk seeing ahead the building that looked like it could be the location of the EXALT Cell. She stood there for a few moments wondering if she really is right in thinking of it being the EXALT Cell. If its so, where is the citizens of Hamburg? Has it just been deserted now Christel is back on Earth. What exactly has happened?
