When Kanno woke up, she was greeted by the sight of a maid standing at her bed. Sighing, she got up and let the maid help her get dressed. So , her father did still insist on living the life of the rich man he was. A doctor walked in with two technicians wheeling in some equipment and her replacement arm. After a hour of painful attachment and adjustments the doctor was satisfied and wordless left the room. The maid dutifully cleaned up the mess that the reattachment had made ,and wiped blood off of Kanno's arm. "Are you alright Mistress?"

" Hm? Oh, yes. Thank you. " Kanno absently responded. This round of cybernetics had hurt a lot more, but the arm also felt lighter, yet stronger. After acclimating to the new arm, Kanno got up and walked downstairs. Unsurprisingly, beside the servants, she was the only one in the mansion. Waiting on the dining table was a nondescript large envelope. Opening it up, Kanno was disappointed by its contents. It would seem her break was over. Kanno left a maid to burn the envelope as she geared up to take out the trash of Academy City.

Her task lasted her most of the day, with only a few hours before the party was due to start. This time it had taken her much longer, a clear indicator to her that she was losing focus, or had grown complacent. She didn't know why either, but her reaction time was longer, her movements more sluggish. The new cybernetic arm did compensate for part of it, but not enough. After wiping blood of her armor, Kanno dissolved her blade made of light. Now there were no traces as to what had killed them beyond an unidentifiable blade. After walking alone for a while, a car pulled up and she got in. After pulling off bloodied pieces of equipment, Kanno decided to relax for a bit until she realized the dress was in front of her. She gave a sigh of exasperation; her father wanted her to attend to the social function early, right after finishing a job. It took a while to dawn on her that she had gotten into a limo instead of a normal car, and that there were yet more maids sitting with her to help her get ready. Her reactions and perception really were becoming dull. Surrendering to her attendants, Kanno inwardly groaned as they started cleaning her up and applying makeup.


By the time the limo pulled into the large estate set aside for such occasions, Kanno felt like a very different person. Her hair had been tied back, and the blue highlights had been brought forward to accentuate them. She had also been scrubbed clean as best as one could be on a limo ride, and a liberal application of makeup had been applied. The dress was also very different from what she normally worse, and it felt very uncomfortable. Her attendants had insisted she looked gorgeous, but Kanno just grumbled. Dresses like these were constrictive, and would definitely hinder any combat movements. Thankfully, she had been allowed to strap a small handgun to her thigh in case of emergencies, so it wasn't a total loss. That combined with her own esper abilities should suffice to overcome any trouble that could come from such an event. Kanno pulled on the elbow length gloves that went with the dress and was pleasantly surprised that it would hide her new cybernetics, for she hadn't had time to allow for clone-flesh to be applied over it. She met her father as she walked and he smiled at her, introducing Kanno to some big-shot researchers. They walked away together and he asked her, " So how's the new arm."

Kanno responded by crushing a valuable sculpture to the chagrin of her father. " Now now, I know you don't want to be here, especially so soon after work, but think of it this way : at least your boyfriend will be here."
Her face turned red and she stammered, " H-e's..w--we're not like that ok. You and the servants."
" Mmm yes, young love. Good to see your birthday wish is working out for you. Now, while I do hope you will be able to enjoy this party with that friend of yours, something may happen tonight. One of the new hybrid cults has been very active lately so make sure you're prepared. After you're done, come back to me so I can show you off to others." With that, he walked off.

Rolling her eyes, Kanno walked off to check the hidden stashes of weapon and the panic rooms dotted throughout the estate. Sometimes she felt like the only reason she had been rescued and adopted was so the Director could pay less people for security. Satsified with the security, Kanno walked back towards the the general party goers that were starting to stream in when she noticed something very strange on top. At first she thought it was a threat and she was about to activate her powers, but then she remembered the conversation last night with Jackson. Something about not looking up. It took her a while of negotiating her way through the growing crowd of guests, some of whom insisted on talking to her and getting pictures with her, but she finally made it to where she assumed Jackson was. He was sitting around, looking a little out of place with the multitude of guests standing around and chatting, or bragging. She walked up to him and curtsied, " Hello good sir. You do seem in dire need of help this fine night.
