Jake just shook his head.

"It's not that." he said.

"Well... I don't think so?" he mumbled.

"Whatever." he muttered.

"I just know that... well... she's had dealings with a certain dark elf." he told her further.

"However, it looks like that may be a remnant of the past now." he went on, briefly glancing back at her.

"I... something tells me that I shouldn't bring her up around the girl." he then added with a sigh.

Anya just laughed lightly.

"Should you really bring that bitch up with anyone?" She asked honestly.

"Because, honestly? I think she's a headache for most, if not all, people in their right mind." She added before sighing lightly.

"It's just... a matter of waiting for her to wake. Maybe she'll be able to give any sort of information regarding what the hell happened to her. I ... doubt that swim was intentional."

Again, Jake sighed.

"Fair point." he said.

"And I doubt it was, either." he told her.

"....poor girl." he mumbled.

"Well, too bad this day turned out to be a bust." he then said.

"We'll have to try again someday."

"It happens." Anya said for a soft smile.

"It's something that happens." She paused a moment before sighing.

"I'm honestly more worried about her, anyway."

Jake nodded.

"Yeah, we need to get her to the Unit ASAP." he reasoned.

The drive went fairly quickly, and they pulled into the parking lot of the 'office building' that was the Unit. Once there, they stepped out of the vehicle.

"All right, then." he said, before pausing.

"Need to make sure we're expected." he reasoned.

With that, he dug his phone out of his pocket, and dialed Angela, the head medic.

In the end, the call with Angela had gone smoothly, and they made their way through the building - Jake carrying the elf while Anya headed off to find some clothing.

Angela, meanwhile, kindly kicked Jake out so she could tend to the unknown elf, and requested that he made his way to give Hal the information about there being someone new there. She was completely unaware of how Anya was already on the way there after getting dressed though.

The demon knocked on his office door, and waited.

"Enter!" she heard from behind the door.

When she did, Hal raised his eyebrow when he saw her.

"Anya?" he asked.

"Surprised to see YOU here." he commented.

"Thought you and Jake were having a 'date-day'..." he went on.

"Did something happen?" he asked, concern in his tone.

Anya nodded.

"We were at the beach, and I found an elf in one of the underwater caverns." She told him honestly.

"Brought her here to Angela, as we weren't sure that taking her to the standard hospital here would be such a good idea." She paused a moment before sighing.

"I think she's a wood elf, if her ears and hair are anything to go by. She was almost dead when I Found her, as well."

Hal was silent as he heard that.

"I... I see." he said.

"Well, that's certainly... eventful, to say the least." he commented. "Certainly concerning and downright horrifying, to be honest." he admitted further.

"I can understand why that day got just short." he went on.

"Thank you for bringing her here. We don't want one of the few elves that are left alive in this world to perish." he went on, before pausing. "Well... aside from one or two exceptions..." he then muttered with venom in his tone.

"Regardless, thank you for telling me this." he continued.

"I'll try and schedule Jake a day off in the near future so you can try the date-day again." he finished.

Anya just sighed. She realised that what he said was true, that there were a few choice elves that would be better off eradicated, but also that the overall eleven population should be saved.

"exceptions aside, of course." She commented before smiling softly.

"If you can, that'd be grand. I realise that he's. Rather key part of the operation here, so it's perfectly all right if you can't. We won't be too pissed about it."

Hal just raised a hand.

"BECAUSE he's such a key part here, I am willing to find a way to give him the day off." he told her.

"He's earned it. He deserves it." he went on.

"Simple as that." he finished with a light chuckle.

"Regardless, while you're here..." he then said, remembering something.

"When can you come in next for... web extraction?" he asked her.

"R&D wants some samples to experiment on in the next month or so."

Anya just laughed lightly.

"Any idea if anyone is available now?" She asked.

"I mean... I'm here now." She added.

"I can easily pop down there now if there's someone who is available for it for the moment." She paused a moment.

"Or I can send some in with Jake when he comes in tomrorow."

Hal thought for a moment.

"Yeah, there should be someone down there." he told her.

"Kiah and Illias, most certainly." he reasoned.

"If you want to head on down, go ahead." he continued. "I'll call them to let you know you're on your way." he went on.

He then paused for a moment, and sighed.

"And try not to fluster and taunt the younger interns." he told her.

"Too much hormonal stimulation, and they're useless for hours afterwards." he lamented.

Anya just laughed.

"I make no promises! Although the fact that I have to have the glamour off for that, I don't think it'll be much of an issue." She commented.

"Hormones tend to fade... quickly at that... when they see the spider features." She added with a light shrug.

"anyway, I'm going to head down there. If you happen to see Jake before I do, let him know where I am please."

"Of course." Hal replied, before buzzing the R&D department.

"Hello, Kiah." he greeted the one that answered.

"Anya is on her way down." he told her.

"For the web extraction. She was here anyway, and volunteered." he continued.

"So be ready for her to arrive."

"Oh? Perfect timing." Kiah commented with a laugh.

"See you soon, Kiah!" Anya called before heading off once Hal told her that there wasn't anything else that he needed to speak with her regarding.

---

About an hour later, there was a knock on Hal's office door. Once he beckoned them to enter, Angela made her way in.

"Hey,. about that elf..." She started before sighing.

"She's undergone serious trauma. I don't know what happened, but she's covered in scars, some very faded, others that are still healing." She told him honestly.

"And no, she hasn't woken yet. She was barely alive by the time I got her. I don't know what kind of mana was used on her, but whatever it was, it's working to kill her and I'm not entirely convinced she'll make it through." She paused a moment before finishing.

"I've done all I can."

Hal was silent as Angela said all she did.

"....well... I see..." he said.

"All I can say is... damn..." he mumbled.

"It's THAT bad?" he asked.

Angela nodded.

"Well, all I ask is you do all you can." he assured her.

"If she doesn't make it... then she doesn't make it." he continued.

"From what Anya's told me, it's a miracle that there's even a chance she'll make it." he then added.

"It's rather shocking that she has the chance, yeah." Angela agreed with a light sigh.

"I'll keep you posted, without a doubt." She added.

"But, while I'm here, is there anything I should know, or anything you want to ask or whatever?"

"Hmmm." Hal mumbled.

"The mana." he said.

"That seems to actively be trying to kill her." he went on.

"What is it doing?" he asked.

"Specifically, what's it doing to kill her?"

'Not letting me properly use any mana to help." Angela answered.

"It's... purely via mortal means. Has to be." She continued.

"I've never come across mana that interfered so soluidly before, and I'm not entirely sure how to handle it, either."
