Liz and Chaze walked into the Briefing room and the woman started running around the room getting the weapons and communication supplies into a backpack. Every now and then she'd stop her frantic movements and glance back at her lover, worry and love in her eyes. Finally she shoved the bag in his arms and walked over to a closet from which she removed a uniform. She brought it over to him and set it on top of the bag, "It ist made vith Adamantium fibers. It should protect you. Use it vell."
That was about all Chaze could stand. He dropped the bag and brought Liz into a near bonecrushing hug, "I love you Elizabeth van Sickle. I'll be back soon and when I return, I'll save you from Nur. I promise." Liz brought her arms up and she squeezed him back and kissed his neck, "I love you too Chaze und I vill hold you to zat." Chaze let go of her and bent down to kiss her one last time. When they broke apart after what felt like an eternity for both of them, Liz smiled, "Ze keys for Jeep are hanging in ze garage. You know vhere zat is." He nodded and kissed her check, "See you soon Liz." With that, he leaned down, picked up the bag and uniform and left.
Liz stood there until she felt his presence leave the main part of the mansion and then left the mansion grounds. She could just hope that that wasn't the last time she had seen the man that she loved.

Liz walked back into the briefing room and fired up with computer that was built into the table. She sat down and gestured for Liam to sit beside her. She rotated her chair so that she could face the thin man, "I am just going to ask you some simple questions. Zere ist no need to be nervous."

"That's a good thing to know" Liam replied as he sat down in the chair, eyes drifting around the room.
"I'd 'ate for our first real chat to be tense. So, go ahead. What do you need to know?"

Ok, let me see... My name is Liam Detrix, I was born in Edenburgh, Scotland, and I can 'eal myself throughly. Except not limbs. My affiliates are none, having made the last leg of the journey here alone. My only real groupings have with other bands of the downtrodden" Liam thought for a moment and began to add a few more notes
"I've been 'omeless since I was 5 and me father died. He 'ad lung cancer. Me mum left me in a train yard when I was 13. I migrated around the midwest for a while, staying where I could. I spent a fair amount of time in a closed down power plant with a colony of other lost folk. That's where I heard about here, and began to make my way. Does that 'elp?"

Liz finished typing Liam's story into his file and she gave her head a shake. She clicked save and sighed heavily before turning to Liam, "Just fine. You und I are indeed more alike zat I first zought. I zink zat you vill fit in perfect vith ze rest of ze group vone zey return."

Liam didn't know how to take comment one, so instead focused on comment two "Great to 'ear that. I can't wait to meet everyone else... once they get out of that pickle that we were just informed about..."
He opened his mouth, as if wanting to add something, but then shut his mouth just as fast, realizing nothing he could say would help about now

Liz nodded, "My team is used to dealing vith zis sort of zing. I hate to say it, but it happens a lot to us. Sometimes ve are enemy to both sides. Ve stand in ze vay of mutants trying to rule over humans und visa versa. Ve have to be strong." She reached out a hand and smiled, "Take my hand und I vill show you my true form."

The words true form lingered in Liam's mind for a moment before placing a bony hand in her outstretched hand. He returned her smile as he added
"I do hope you're as kind as you are in your 'true form' as you are now"

Liz nodded, "I just hope that you are as kind to my true form as you are to this one..." She closed her eyes and her hair shrunk up to shoulder length and turned jet black, ten fingers became six, skin turned indigo and became covered in a light coat of fur, and a three and a half foot tail with a spade-like end sprouted from her lower back. She opened her eyes to reveal they had turned blood red with no visible pupil. She swallowed hard, "Zis is it..."

Liam couldn't hide a visible twitch or reaction of shock, which he instantly hated himself for. So much that of every other emotion, he looked sad. He smiled, still keeping hold of the hand, though it now was of a different shape
"We are who we are, no matter what we look like. Thank you for showing me."

Liz's slightly pointed ears seemed to go back at the look of shock, but was comforted by the face he didn't shrink away, "Danke... I do not like to show mien true form because it scares people. I try not to show it to new people because I do not vant to scare zem."

His eyes drifted downwards toward the floor as he apologized for looking shocked, no matter how infinitisimally small the moment. It was rude of him.
"Regardless, you're a great person, like this or as a 'ume. It is our actions that matter" He looked up back at her face with an uneasy smile before moving a massive amount of hair out of his face, having forgotten to tie it back after the bath

Liz smiled and nodded. She closed out of the computer with just as much ease with six fingers as she had with ten. She looked up, the smile extending to her blood red eyes, "Danke. Come on. Ve need to go check on Tiffany."

Liam gave a nod and looked at the computer for a moment. Unlike the elevator, he had seen those before, if only briefly. He hoped to possibly getting around to looking into one later.
"Right. Let's go"
