[ The waiting prolonged as time grew more & more stagnant, leaving a certain eeriness in every corner of the room that served as a hideout after the girlās very absence. Itās a fling of discomfiture that seizes her by the throat, chokes her violently & bereaves her of all the soft strokes of air she needs to breathe for a relatively long moment. Funny, because she easily recalls the feelingā the fear of being alone again, left behind or shut away from reality. The spy knows that itās in fact absolutely nonsensical & especially unprofitable to ruminate such nugatory, minor things at this inconvenient time & place but she just canāt help it somehow. Itās almost as if her headache throngs her to behave this way, to reminisce the sceneries from her past life, the memories that partially had been erased from her cranium like dispensable letters. Oh how often has she tried to stick those pieces together againā all for naught. Unfortunately. Sheās a new person now & her old self ā¦ a lost cause. A dream that distances itself more & more with each tolling hour. Itās her life, though it seems as if sheās never really had the upper hand of anything concerning her choices.
The air of melancholy { & desperation moreso } lingers about for a little while longer, envelopes her pale, statuesque figure like a veil thatās trying to hide her from exterior harm. Sheās been living in isolation for years so this instance surely wouldnāt bring her fall. Well, not all too soon. Come to think of it; She & the girl, the young lamb, sort of suffered the same fate. Theyāve both been trapped, shut off from the outside world for a great amount of time, waiting for someone, just a n y o n e to help them flee from their capturing misery. She remembers that itās been her sister aiding her years back so that theyād both be able to escape from the underground facilities. & now, itās H E R being the rescuer, the knight in shining armor, freeing the bird, rescuing the princess from her tower, albeit with egoistic intentions. The whole thing has a rather ironical taste about it. Almost hysterically comical. Before sheās able to drift further into a dream-like state, however, a faint cadence of faint, knocking sounds made itself present, loud enough to alarm her immediately. Nadheliya raises gracefully from the seat to peek over the fryed, outworn backrest, pallish & weakened limbs immediately stiffening in caution. Theyāve settled on performing a certain knocking sign when seperated & the one sheād heard just now seemed right if her sense of hearing didnāt decide to fail on her, too āhowever, you could never be sure enough. They couldāve also taken her hostage, using her knowledge to detect the spy & trick her. Sheād be nothing but a sitting duck to them. A speck in the heated pan.
Thankfully, her fears were for naught; the clattering sound of boots reverberated through the room only moments after the knocking & the wood she walked on sighed exasperated. It was the girl, in the flesh, with no one else in company. The little excursion mustāve therefore been prolific & a full success as Nadheliya presumed. Well, at least something that worked as planned today. ]
Ā Ā Ā Ā ā Thank goodness. For a moment, I believed youād bring me some unwanted company. Shouldnāt have queried your abilities, hm? ā
[ Sarcasm swings with her unusually flat voice as she sit regally in the chair. Though, the way her features twitch & contort only elucidated without a waste of words how aggravated her condition had gotten in the meanwhile. This headache clearly was no ordinary happenstance. Evoked through the weather or the stressā it didnāt matter. If she wouldnāt do something about it soon enough, sheād remain a slave to the pain & perhaps even hamper the mission. Sheās clearly N O T in the stance to afford such failure. Itād have a very nefarious effect on her reputation as a spy & agent for sure.
Her veins pump with uncontrollable magic thatās not sprouted from plasmids or other kinds of altering chemicals they sell around Columbia like a bottle of good, expensive red wine but something far more demonic. Her true origin lies beyond the girlās imagination & anticipation. All to her sole benefit. Itās in times of need like these where sheās desirous of the free, unlimited usage of her powers to acquire information & advantage in front of Cumstockās little stooges. Itād surely buy them some time. & she could cool off her own, attritional blood heat with a mere snap of her fingers. She remembers why sheās always hated escort missions such as these. Being a longer sometimes comprises its benefits. ]
Ā Ā Ā Ā ā So, how did you fare during your little trip to the wonderful outside world? Anything useful you could snatch for us? ā

Thank god, no one had found their hideout yet and the blonde was, more or less, safe and sound. She may could be a little more healthy but itās nothing that canāt be fixed somehow. And itās still better than suffering from blood loss or bad injuries. Theyād both sustained none of these things yet, though who knows whatās gonna happen in the near future. Theyāre still in the enemyās turf after all. God how she hated this floating piece of an island. She couldnāt await the day sheād finally be free -- hopefully forever this time. Seeing Paris... and the rest of the world.
Ā Ā Ā Ā āIt... couldāve worked better, a little smoother if you ask me but at least no one has noticed my presence.ā, she explained calmly, tension still sticking to her words and composure, though the closer she inched and the more time she could spend behind closed walls where no one could see them, the sooner did she relax from all the stress again. Still holding the package of painkillers, Elizabeth handed them over after a momentās hesitation, eyes seemingly relieved to see that sheād gotten the right ones after checking them once again, just to be sure. Once again, reading all these books and therefore educating herself out of boredom has proven to be quite beneficial. āHere. Thatās all I could find. They should work just fine on you, though. From what I know, the active ingredient will be strong enough to ease the pain without necessarily knocking you out.ā Or so she hoped.
