Elizabeth, Minako, and K' were introduced to each other in mere seconds. In fact, it could have been less than that since they only nodded to the other as a signal to go. Formal introductions could wait and so much time had already been lost. Nill could already be--best not to think that way, who knew what would happen if that turned out to be the case, better to leave it as the undealt with question that loomed larger than life in the tense silence between them.
They arrived in front of the imposing church (Elizabeth had seemed to know by instinct, and Minako nor K' were going to ask how) alert and ready to strike at a moment's notice. She had said her caretaker--Bishop, that was his name--was gone. Only a cat greeted them at the door by sitting down and nonchalantly licking its paw. Better to leave the affairs of humans to humans was his motto and he had managed to stick to it for several years. A tan man, a blonde girl, and a white-haired woman were not going to change his mind.
Another unspoken question as they looked at one another. Who was going to find Nill and who was going to make sure Zero was kept at bay if he had decided to stick around?
