They both appeared before sunni's apartment as they stood opposite each other. Sunni was nervous and more guilty at the moment. She didn't know how to start the conversation.
Why would she even be nervous around a monster?
"Well...Thanks for saving me" She had to start somewhere at least.
"No need. It's my job"
"And..... Sorry"
"Sorry for what?"
"well last time ...The way I...." She felt awkward apologizing but she had to do it" It's just the way I reacted and talked to you back in the hospital....I don't think it was nice so...Well...I....
just feel that I .. didn't...i said something wrong.....well...well don't make it more complicated for me.... just... Sorry for the way I reacted last time."
He sighed looking at her" I don't think you did anything wrong"
"But why did you leave the hospital that dad looking annoyed....It means what I said hurt you..."
He was looking clueless as he said" No...I had something important to attend to....so I left"
She felt a bit stupid. And here she was thinking she had offended him...He was actually ignorant of her harsh words. She wondered if it was a good thing to not but she felt stupid with her apology.
"Well then.... Thanks...for saving me" He said as he slowly brought his hands up. She Stiffened watching his hand come to rest on her head and then Pat her like a puppy.
She found her heart racing again.
"You're welcome"
Still feeling awkward, she slipped from his Pat "Well then..." She scratched her head "You saved me twice....So I'm grateful. So rest assured, I'll keep your secret"
"Secret?" He asked.
"Sure...your secret" She looked around cautiously" Your secret powers"
"oh...I see" He said. He wasn't that dump to understand basic things at least.
She didn't want to ask him further about his powers or identity. Perhaps it was best not pocking her nose into his business to avoid trouble.
"Well... then... I'll be leaving then" She said
"Okey let's go in" He turned to enter the house but she held him back alarmed.
"What??"
"Let's...go in"
"No no no no....You can't go in there" She couldn't let him in! Hana was already back.
"Why?"
"Nothing....just...Find somewhere to stay tonight or for the year.... alright?"
He hesitated before nodding.
"Okey...bye" She said as he suddenly vanished. She blinked, "I still have to get used to the puffing off" She said as she entered the building .

It was another beautiful morning in the city with the news of the strange event from the previous night flowing through the place. But there was no video because it was kept confidential.
Many had their theories, Some called it a miracle, Some magic and some evil invasion. It was just roaming about.
Some could trace it was from the killer of the night comet. But something they found surprising was the fact that no one was killed. but rather the bus was brought down safely.
It was even going viral on the news with interview of the surviving people from the bus. They could only tell what they experienced with no much information.
Dave Lin sat in his office with the computer before him. He was watching a video clip on his computer. The video was from last night, Sunni's conversation with an invisible person right before her apartment.
He had his eyes fixed on the familiar girl who was actually speaking to someone that wasn't seen. And afterwards had entered the apartment. It was obvious that was her house.
Dave Lin was certain he knew her. He took a minute or two recall the brief memories he had with her. Beginning from their first meeting where she had called him a jerk and rude to the moment she had come to the agency expressing her desire to be a detective and join the team but he had turned him down.
Now, looking at the video on replay he could only think of a suitable idea. capturing her and keeping a close eye on her while questioning her didn't seem to be a smooth plan. He seemed to have had a perfect idea.
Just then, a knock came on the door as he said " Come in"
As the door opened, Lara walked in with a file in her hand. Approaching his table, he placed the file on his desk "This is the result from the video clip"
Taking the file, Lin went through it briefly and then took the flash drive from the file and inserted it in her computer. After a while of clicking, he played the video.
It was the same video from yesterday but effect were seen. Like a the invisible man who had turned Sunni to face him seemed to have been represented by a Shaky magnetic force.
"It has been proven real and there was actually someone who had pulled the girl and from the look of the force surrounding the invisible man, his hand was stretched out, bringing down the bus. This likely means he saved her and didn't kill anyone last night. This is to say this girl is very important to this Alien"
Looking at it, Dave Lin thought for a while "It seems so. So we already have a point to begin"
"So what step do you suggest we take on this girl? Do we find her and take her into questioning until she spits the truth?"
Lin slightly shocked his head "That would be a silly and messy move to take. As we know she's important to this Alien, taking her would rather be provoking this beast and calling him to attack us....we certainly can't handle the extraordinary, now can we?"
She thought about it and found sense in it " that's right. So what do you suggest we do then?"
He hesitated before he tapped the pause button on the keyboard to pause the playing video clip. " Get the van ready, we're going to welcome our new teammate"
