She smiled back and continued to devour her food. 

Ria watched, clearly satisfied by Five’s excitement. “You guys wanna go to a mall, maybe? And buy some stuff?”

Five tilted her head, confused.

“Two minutes,” he yelled. “You can see it up ahead.”

Cadewyn peered ahead to see if there was anyone else in the clearing.

“Mine,” Beosta demanded. “It was my boots he destroyed. Plus I want a cool weapon. Uh. Please.” 

Tam just grinned and fixed her boots.

She turned to the others.

"To Entoturis?"

Nobody was. There was, however, a notably sized hole in the small raised platform of marble. stairs led downward  

Ferron landed.

"To Entoturis?"

They all said yes. 

Bat looked nervous. Very nervous. 

“We should reason with her first,” he said. “In case Regression doesn’t make her connections die completely…” 

Beosta snorted. “Nah. Choose violence.”

Elliot looked up from his drums. “Oh, and some cat told me to tell you to stab her, not just wave it at her.”

“I’m taking you, then,” she declared, standing up. “I’ll find you both a change of clothes— we have stuff in your sizes, I think— and then we’ll go.”

”…it sounds scary,” Five hedged.

"Reason sounds good . . ."

Has she ever attacked you before? Shoe asked.

"Not . . . technically, no."

Then we should try talking first.

Shoe grinned and pulled her into a side hug.

"What would we even say to her? 'Ruia, don't destroy the Thread, you live here.'"

A weird look came over her face.

". . . That's . . . actually not terrible. We just need a couple other things to say, probably."

“What do we know about her besides that she destroys stuff? What would convince her?” Bat frowned. “She didn’t destroy my people the second she could…”

"True, but she just . . . infected them, for some reason. Changed them. Why? Do you think she would answer truthfully if we asked her?"

She and Five followed. 

Ria led them through a nice hallway to an elevator. Five tried not to be amazed by everything they passed.

But it was hard.
