Lionel's hands were full as he stood at his regular work station when Vesper suddenly looked out through the window in surprise. "What is it, Vesper?" he asks.

"I think mom and dad are about to fight again." She sighed as she just watched the streak of fire go away. She didn't like knowing when they fought. Mom was always able to heal pretty effectively, and she just assumed that dad could use his plants to make remedies and such to heal himself. She was just worried they'd go too far one day.

Lionel rushes over to the window and sees the Sun Forger outside. He then steps away from the window. "If I wanna be sure to keep everyone around me safe, I'd better stay away from her and her little sun. I'm not sure, but it might trigger the beast inside me. I can't know for certain of course but I'd rather not risk it." He then returns to his work station. "But Vesper, how do you know your father is here in the city? Last I heard he was in Inglewood."

"She wouldn't come here in costume unless she thought he was here." She moved away from the window abd pulled our her phone to make a call to her mother. Unfortunately, what she forgot, it was fried the other night when Uther kidnapped her. She started looking at some of what he was working on

"You can borrow my phone if you want to make a call, Vesper," Lionel offers.

"Thanks Dr. Zoller." Vesper borrowed the phone and dialed her Mother's number, waiting for her to pick up.
"Hey Mom. Yeah I'm fine. I saw on the news,that you flew in to Avalon Falls. Everything alright? Oh. Interesting. Oh my phone broke. Dr. Zoller. He's a professor here. Uh... sure." Vesper got off the phone and handed it back. "She wants to talk to you."

"What? To me?" Lionel asks in surprise. He had certainly not expected this. He takes the phone and clears his throat before putting the phone to his ear. "Hello? This is Dr. Zoller speaking."

"Look I'm not sure exactly who you are, but I know you're not a professor at the school Vesper is supposed to be in. I'll have to figure out where she went instead Unless you can tell me. That's not the point though. The point is, keep her safe. And don't try ablnything funny. Got it?"

"Oh you have absolutely nothing to worry about, ma'am," Lionel ensures her. "Vesper is completely safe. You have my word. If you'd feel safer knowing more about me, you can always google 'Doctor Lionel Zoller' to read some about me and my work on nuclear fusion among other things."

Lionel puts his phone away after the call. "I hope I didn't give anything away, Vesper," he says. "I'm sorry if I told her something I shouldn't have."

"No it's alright." As Vesper is looking out the window, she sees a car attempt to hit a pedestrian abd then people coming out of the car. Then she sees her mom fly in. "Dr. Zoller!" She said quickly. "We need to leave. Mom's here"

Very efficiently Lionel puts his entire sun protective outfit on. "Now, how do you suppose we get out of here safely?" he asks. "If we just walk out of here right now we might risk running into her outside."

"Uh... I haven't thought of that yet." She watched as one of the ones her mom was fighting did something to get behind her and strike with their spear. The spear just clanged against her Mother's armor but armor isn't always invincible. "What exit is in the opposite direction?"

"There is one exit we can take that is in the opposite direction," Lionel says, "but to get to it we have to walk right past the exit that's facing that battle." He opens the lab door and steps out into the corridor. "Come on, I'll lead the way."

Vesper follows behind him, feeling nervous and scared. She didn't see her father around which was stranfe, really. But these other people seemed pretty serious as well.

They run through the school corridors but then Lionel halts them right before they have to run past the glass doors that lead straight out into the current battlefield.
"We have to be careful here," Lionel says cautiously. "Luckily for me there's no sun right now, but we need to walk past this door hoping that nothing, or no-one, is flung at us through the doors. I can't really tell if the coast is clear or not..."

Siddenly, a loud boom and the sound of breaking glass can be heard as a lamp post bursts through the doorway. They had stopped just in time, it had seemed. "What the fuck! Sorry sir." She was apologizing to Zoller about her cursing. "They didn't check the school to make sure people were gone before fighting?" Vesper had no idea her mom had thrown the lamp post. Her nerves turned into worry and fear, something that the combatants might be able to feel soon.

As the glass doors were scattered by the lamppost, one of the glass shards gave Lionel a cut in his shoulder. It cut through his coat and left him a bit wounded but not too much. Lionel also started feeling afraid, and very worried (both for himself and for Vesper). "This is really bad," Lionel says very seriously. He peaks around the corner and sees Sun Forger fighting out there along with many individuals he didn't know of. He then turns back to Vesper. "Your mother is right outside," he tells her. "At this point I honestly don't know if our best course of action is to try getting past this or to just walk out right here."

A little sun was coming towards their direction. Remembering what Zoller had said about his powers, she tugged on his sleeve a bit. "We need to get back to your lab. Immediately."

"Oh shit, you're right!" Lionel exclaims and starts running back with Vesper the way they came.
