¿ªÔÆÌåÓý(Kat) ? ?Stood off to the side as Gen had gathered his clothes. He stripped off what he was wearing. Folded them neatly, not caring he was naked in front of her. Kat could understand what Kite liked about Gen. Physically anyway. She listened as he spoke his peace and dressed in what be had come with. ? ?"I know where the lighthouse is. I will come and visit you. I will also tell Kite where you are as well. Just do me a favor. Don't write this off yet ok. You know as well as I do, there are others like us that do not hold our feelings about helping others. Along with the general crime in the city its self. If someone contacts you, from here again. Please consider it."? ? ?When Gen was dressed and ready to go. He came over and gave her a hug. When they parted Kat gave Gen a warm smile. "It was nice to meet you as well. We will get to know each other. I won't let that not happen." She grinned.? (Gen) "I hope so," Gen said, smiling back, though not as brightly as Kat was doing. "Good luck with everything.? I hope it works out for you.? And... and I'll see you around, okay?" With that, the androgyne hurried off, not trusting himself to not be overcome with emotion.? He'd never realized until he'd escaped the lab just how power emotions could be.? He'd never had friends before. Or people that he might think of as friends anyway.? It was all very confusing and overwhelming. When he reached the roof, Gen paused to will his wings to grow out, extending through the slits he'd made in his shirt and jacket.? While he was at it, he shifted back into his default mode, neither male nor female and yet both at the same time. She didn't want to be male just now. It reminded her of too many things she'd experienced.? Too many things she didn't want to think about at the moment. Securing the backpack to his waist, the bat-winged youth took to the sky. She was barely off the roof when she spotted Kites and some man she didn't recognize standing on a different part of the roof. A pang hit her in the chest at the sight of the bird-winged boy and she hovered awkwardly for a bit. She wanted to do something... say something...? In the end she just gave a mini-shriek of frustration, blasting the gravel from a nearby section of the roof, and then turned and fly away, out towards the harbor, not looking back. Gen reached the lighthouse in record time, circling it twice to make sure it was still unoccupied before landing on the balcony surrounding the light room.? The window panel was unlocked, just as she'd left it, and she quickly let herself inside. It was so _quiet_, Gen thought as she headed down the stairs to the living quarters.? She could hear the wind outside, of course, and the sea waves washing up against the island's rocky base.? But there was nothing living here.? It was the first thing she noticed.? At Chord's facility, even in the quiet moments, she could sense the others being nearby.? Here, it was just her. "Sucks to be you," the androgyne muttered, tossing her backpack off and throwing herself face-down on the bed.? Emotionally exhausted, she was out like the lighthouse light. ?
