[RL with Zechs, Tyki and Rufus]

Hakuba shivered, the weather wasn't any better now than when he left Gaia a few days ago. He nearly killed himself driving the iced road, he still needs more driving lessons. The detective couldn't use the flying broom, he gave it to that demon woman, Trish, anticipating that Elphaba would not mind. He imagined that the witch would symphatize with another woman who was being hunted like her, and, after all, the broom will fly back to it's original owner if something goes wrong. If not, he would just have to deal with another psychopathic friend.

The boy realy hoped that all was going well on the Ark...Tyki was really alive, and he remembered Zechs and the community. Such a relief. Hakuba was still worried and a bit scared, but damn him if he was going to left that kind of emotions to take control. Hakuba was in front of Zechs's door now, he had the keys of the apartmen, but he hesitated. Zechs was less than joyful when he prevented him to go to his lover's side for the second time. Knowing that trying to trying to delay the inevitable was useless, he opened the door carefully.

"Zechs?"

Hakuba's voice was calm, "I wasn't aware about all the capacity of the ZERO system, when I discovered it I decided to stop it." Hakuba paused, thinking of the 27 bones that composed the hand, the carpals, metacarpal,the phalanges. His hand was swell and bruised, but not bleeding...much. The skin was scratched and Hakuba wondered about if he was going to need a tetanus shot. To reduce swelling, he moved the injured hand above the level of his heart. The tense silence held until the boy continued.

"I don't work for you, I'm not from your world, and I don't live here. I don't need to justify my acts or decisions." He looked at Zechs for a moment. Now the other man was thinking that Hakuba did all this only because Tyki told him to watch over him, and that annoyed the detective. He looked back at Rufus.

"Not to no one except myself."Hakuba said very quietly. "How long you been there anyway?"
