They weren't having much luck and Xan felt defeated.

Lucien on the other hand managed to remain optimistic. He felt a lot better after having a soda and some chips. The summoner looked around, left, right, left, right. However, he couldn't see anyone familiar. They continued looking and he decided to help boost their group's morale. "Hey, hey, guys, wanna hear a joke?" He grinned brightly at Thunderhawk and Aria, snickering even before he had said anything.

Xan sighed but decided to humor him. "Go for it."

"I used to be addicted to soap." He exhaled sadly as if it were a deep, dark, and horrid secret. At the lost moment he brightened up with a chuckle. "I'm [i]clean[/i] now." He gave a little clap, and readied himself for another joke.

The metallurgist let out a soft chuckle. It was so bad...it was actually kind of funny. "Oh, I see--what on earth?" the ground began to shake and Xan slid into a defensive stance. Was someone out to get them? Lucien and Thunderhawk were tackled to the ground and before she knew it she rushed up to the attacker, grabbed onto the collar of his shirt and yanked him back. "What are you doing?" She hissed angrily before realizing that he most likely wasn't a threat. He probably wasn't trying to attack her teammates either, but their run in with the paparazzi and the weird way they had all woken up make her feel tense and on edge.

Lucien was sprawled out on the ground, dazed and feeling awkward. Why was this man bawling? "E-Emergency?" He sputtered before awkwardly patting Clive on the back. He tried to get the man to calm down before dusting himself off. "What's the matter? You can tell us, yeah? But who are you?" Was he one of Don's many bros? He didn't recall seeing this particular person but if he was going all bro, then he had to be connected to Don. Oh! Don! Lucien brightened up and gave Clive another tap on the back. "Ey, by any chance do you know where Don is at or where the others are? If you could help us out it'd be grand."

Xan offered Thunderhawk a helping hand before turning to Clive. "Please calm down, it'll be fine. We're here to help. By any chance have you seen Aria or any of the other guilders?" Xan began describing her friend then the others. They needed to regroup.
