Now this was something Nathan could do. He wasn't too good at subtly, but rescuing a hostage didn't sound like it would require much. Even if they tried to threaten to kill her, he could bluff his way out. It might mean reviling himself as a Dragonite, but Meria's life was worth more then that. People tended to have a hard time dealing with what they thought was a blood thirsty Dragonite. 

Not caring if Fenrir was behind him, Nathan rushed out of the room and to the nearest elevator. After a brief wait, he got in and went to the seventeenth floor. Once he reached it, he ran to the door at the end of the hall and ripped the door off of it's hinges. However to his surprise, he saw that Meria was in there alone "wow, this is convenient...too convenient." He walked over to her and broke her bindings and removed her gag "but I don't really care if this is a trap, I can't just leave her like this." After he helped her to her feet, he said "you okay? We think some duke guy is trying to take the throne or something like that. Also, I think they have a bomb, but this guy I've never seen said he has someone jamming it, or something. Anyway, we need to get you downstairs fast"

"No...I'm fine" Mithos answered just barely hanging on to his composure "I'm just fine by myself, you needn't bother yourself with me" he tried to subtly tell her to get lost. 'Gah! Just leave me alone you foul women!'
