"Since he's callin the boss, I'll just go see Akito. Maybe he's got some info or somethin." Naomi muttered as she walked downstairs to start her search for Akito.
After finding Akito talking to the housekeeper, Naomi stood queitly, her back against the wall. Naomi and Nori both hated the housekeeper. Once, the housekeeper insisted that Naomi wear pigtails and a red dress instead of her usual pants and shirt with her ponytail. Both Naomi and Nori looked at her as if they heard she comitted a major crime. Naomi told her she'd wear a big pigtail at the back of her head, but that was that. The housekeeper agreed, not knowing Naomi meant a ponytail. Naomi and Nori kept making jokes and laughing about that the rest of the day.
"Is something the matter?" Akito questioned.
Naomi shook her head.
"I was just wondering if you've had prior job experience. I'm trying to look for optimal careers." Naomi lied.
"I worked with the Sumeragi for four years, I'm considering going back." Akito answered.
"Why did you leave if you don't mind my asking." Naomi questioned.
"I wanted to expand my horizons." Akito responded.
"What's it like working for the Sumeragi?" Naomi asked.
'Either she's lost her memory or is trying to get some intel. It's best to just play along for now.' Akito thought.
"The work conditions were above standard. The lounge room was expansive with a couch and flat screen television. The chairs were of top quality and made with the best materials." Akito replied.
"That sounds like a dream." Naomi commented.
"It seems like a distant memory now." Akito added.
"Thank you for answering my questions." Naomi thanked before walking into the room, closed the door and teleported to QUILL.
"It's Akito! He's at the sanatorium!" Naomi announced.
"Huh? Why's he there?" Zeno pondered.
"He tried ta track me with those dang nanobot shots. Maybe he wanted ta see what happened ta me after he died. I almost went too, thank goodness I didn't." Naomi sighed.
"But why are they all back?" Zeno wondered.
"I've got an idea, I'll be back." Naomi spoke before teleporting to Jeremy's dorm.
'If he pulls any funny business, what I'm gonna do won't be so funny.' Naomi thought angrily.
Naomi noticed though it was lights out, Jeremy's computer was on and there was a shadow in front of it.
"Hey Einstein." Naomi greeted cheerfully.
Jeremy jumped and yelped in fear.
"N-Naomi? What are you doing here? Do you even know what time it is?" Jeremy questioned.
"It's nine at night an I came ta see if ya knew anythin bout Akito bein revived. Not ta mention I've got a theory after I got that Adept sickness he wanted ta see if I died." Naomi responded.
"I have no idea, it's strange though how that happened." Jeremy sighed.
"I heard a theory about the Sumeragi having ressurection tech." Naomi informed.
"You do realize you can get help from someone with inside experience, even more than you, and you're refusing to ask for help?" Jeremy interrogated.
"I don't need his help, he probably thinks I'm a monster anyway. If you wanna stop seein me just stop contactin me and get the French QUILL division ta help." Naomi snarled before teleporting back to the sanatorium.
'Hol up, I killed Arson and Tami too. Uh oh, does that mean? That ain't good.' Naomi mentally panicked.
"My one and only tried to kill me, isn't that something?" A mysterious voice commented.
Naomi turned around and saw Arson.
"Haha, very funny Arson, you're gonna need a better prank though. Uh, aren't you supposed to have both feet in the grave and not here in my room?" Naomi squeaked.
"Elise was kind enough to resurrect me. And while she gets revenge on your brother, I'll get revenge on you." Arson announced.
Naomi activated her Azure Striker Septima so she could run faster and sped out of her room to the basement in hopes Copen was there. Unfortunately, he wasn't. Naomi ran back into her room, used her Flashfield to make sure Arson couldn't damage her, opened the window and used her Gravity Septima to throw Arson out the open window.
"There's no way he coulda survived that fall." Naomi muttered as she activated Lola.
"Is something the matter boss?" Lola worried.
"The tracker I put in the Megante Leon jacket, it still works right?" Naomi hoped.
"Sure does!" Lola confirmed.
"I need you to activate it and see where Copen is." Naomi demanded.
"On it! Let's see, he's at the Stratacombs, weird. I wonder why." Lola commented.
Naomi was wide eyed as her knees buckled and she fell on the floor.
"B-boss! Are you okay!?" Lola panicked.
"The one thing I needed to do, I couldn't even accomplish." Naomi sniffled.
Lola set up communications with Copen.
"Lola? What are you doing contacting me right now?" Copen questioned.
"Naomi's scaring me, she asked me to see if you were alright." Lola answered.
'That's strange, she never asks if I'm alright, something must be wrong. I'd better hurry back and see what's happening.' Copen pondered.
