Xavier sighed, "Look, we knew too, alright? We helped Cain figure it out. You happy?"
"Not entirely, Blue. There's still sommat you're not tellin' me, and so help me..."
"Look Arabelle, intimidating me isn't going to work. It never has."

"What about what Cain told us? You think she's even ready for that?"
Arabelle blinked, folding her arms and shifting her weight, "Ready for what?"
Zero rolled his eyes and X, "Ready for the fact that Cain specifically recruited you to deal with Kaiser, because of your chaotic nature."
"...Wait. What?"
X pinched the bridge of his nose. Oh no.
