"Henry, I thought you were supposed to be in the hospital for six weeks. It hasn't even been a full week yet." Raphael stated.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Turns out I only bruised one of my ribs. I wasn't even in my right mind when you and Denella showed up. You're right, I'm still supposed to be in the hospital, but I kind of convinced the nurse to let me go earlier than when they were going to release me. By the way, how are you and Denella?" Henry asked.

"Well, let's just say she's kind of mad at me, but other than that, I think we're fine. Honestly, I hope we're fine. Anyways, how did you convince the nurse to allow you to leave?" Raphael questioned.

"Long story short, she's going to be real mad when she's conscious again." Henry explained.

"Henry, you knocked her out?"

"No, of course not. She knocked herself out. Kind of. Yeah, it's a long story."

"How did you know I was here?"

"I was going up to find you, but I realized the elevators weren't working, so I figured I could be of assistance and come on down to the basement to try and fix them. And that's how I found you. You were almost dead! What happened down here?"

"Celcus told me Judy Walker was down here. I came to find her, and I got knocked out because I was distracted. I heard this voice coming from my pocket. It was the device that I had Denella hook up to her shirt. She told me to stay out of her way, but she must have forgotten to take it off."

"Is she okay?" Henry asked, concerned.

"I don't know." Raphael answered as he took the earpiece out of his pocket and held it out so he and Henry could listen.

"Stop!" They heard her say. "Leave them alone!"

"She's in trouble. I already told T.E.R.S.E., but we have to go help her. Let's get Judy and get-- Wait, Where's Judy?"

Watching Celcus getting away with whatever he had planned was not something was going to do. She didn't have a plan, not yet, but she always did come up with something in the end. Celcus was the last person she wanted to see right now, even if he wasn't really the one behind any of this.

Following along on the theory she had, she tried putting the pieces of the puzzle together like how they always fit perfectly in the end. All the clues somehow made sense when you put them together.
