"No one it's just I know you by now and I know how I am," Nox replies, "You had a team and then went solo I was the same way."

"I went solo because my team was killed and, for all my skill, I can't bring back the dead." Zero told her.

"I know," Nox quietly speaks, "Come on we shoul get out of here."

Zero nodded and kept walking. "...I'd be open to permanant partnership." He said after a minute.

Nox looks at Zero in suprise, "Are you sure?"

"Yes." Zero replied, not allowing himself a chance to hesitate or second guess himself. It was funny what a bit of acting could do for one's self-esteem. "Yes. I'm sure."

Nox smiles happily, "Thank you." She didn't care if Zero was acting or not at this point she was just happy she could stay. She didn't admit it out loud but she was secretly tarified of being alone.

Zero gave a shallow nod in response. "...You're welcome." He replied, offering a ghost of a smile himself. No going back now, He reflected.

Nox looks around quickly, "I hope that the police stop them."

(Should we go to the police department that Nox threw the note in? I just want to see the reaction of the basically paper throwing star in the desk.)

(Sure.)

Zero blinked. "You know what? So do I."

A german shepherd strode into the police office, ears flattened. "Alright, I got the latte. Now we're even." He told his partner, setting the foam cup down on the desk.
