(Tatsu comes upon Alessandra as she is lying on the ground with swirls in her eyes. Tatsu jumps in surprise and shakes Alessandra.)

Alessandra-sensei! Who did this to you?!

(Tatsu gasps in fear as she comes to this conclusion.)

They must have been the craftiest of assassins to be able to sneak past the lounge and take you down! We need to do a full scale search of the area! These fiends will not lay a hand on another member of the lounge!

[fermionprincess]

Dearest Tatsu? Is it you who suddenly appears before me?

[Alessandra shakes her head rapidly to regain standard eye pupils.]

Do not be afraid, for the immediate danger was already handled by yours truly.

[mad_copycat]

Tatsu see. So you were able to defeat the invading enemy single handedly but were exhausted afterwards. That is Alessandra-sensei for you!

(Tatsu looks around, looking ready to pounce on something.)

Show Tatsu where you laid their defeated forms! Tatsu wants to show them that no one messes with the lounge!

[fermionprincess]

Oh, they have dissolved into nothingness, except for bitter memories.

[Surely Alessandra cannot tell the truth now...]

[mad_copycat]

(Tatsu looks at Alessandra for a beat before nodding in thought.)

Tatsu suppose that could be possible. They could have had a suicide procedure which caused them to dissolve or have been made of energy like the summons that Yui uses thus were dispelled upon defeat. Much more probable than the other theory that you were just clumsy and hit your head. But that theory is just silly.

[fermionprincess]

B... but of course! That would be so ridiculous. O ho ho ho ho!

[mad_copycat]

Of course. Still, that does leave a problem. Taking into account the possible theories, someone has sent assassins who are able to slip past the others and get this far into the Chalice. Even Lucas didn't get this far undetected, and he had teleports. And without the men that were sent, we can't get any clues. It is unsettling.

[fermionprincess]

I assure you, as mysterious and unsettling the circumstances may have been, this was but a singular event. Its repetition is extremely unlikely.

[mad_copycat]

Maybe. But there is still a possibility that they may try again. Tatsu thinks it would be good to create a security system to make things safer.

(Either Alessandra's Bluff is too good to be safely used or Tatsu's Sense Motive is terrifyingly bad.)
