Elyse let the tears fall, trying her best to hold them in when she was on the phone. She sat back on her bed as the call ended and really cried then. She knew this day was coming, but hadn't expected it so soon.
Elyse had also expected to be alone when this day came, and now that things have changed, she was glad she wasn't. She was glad to have Nox. Nox promised protection, and even though she could take care of herself, she was glad to hear him say that.
Elyse wiped the tears from her eyes and went to the closet, pulling out her bug out bag. It had everything she would need in case she had to go into hiding. There was some food and a few changes of clothing as well as bottled water and cash. Compartments held spare ammunition and toiletries. Elyse grabbed a few more supplies such as contacts and some contact solution, and stuffed a few more items of clothing into.
Elyse smiled slightly when she saw the box of condoms she had purchased that day and put that in too. As she did her hand brushed by a picture on her dresser of her parents outside of Kronberg Castle. That started the tears again. Her parents didn't know what she was, and even though they would probably turn her in if they found out, she still loved them. Elyse kissed the picture and set it down before grabbing what else she needed.
Elyse sent Nox a text as she left her apartment for the last time.
Elyse knew she didn't have to say who they were.
She received a response soon enough.
Before leaving, she obeyed getting the address off of it first, not only going through the wiping process on the wallet, she destroyed it with a hammer. The pieces she kept for now. She would dispose of them later.
On the way to the train station, she got rid of the pieces in a local trash bin and kept walking. Boarding the train she was thankful to find a spot that was secluded. She had calmed down, but her eyes still showed that she had been crying.
Elyse got off the train and headed towards the house Nox had indicated. She thought it would be better to complete this leg on foot rather than a taxi. The less people that saw her, the better. The neighborhood was a rich neighborhood. Whoever Nox's employer was well off.
Elyse found the right house and walked up to the door, thankful that this had gone off without a hitch. Elyse rang the doorbell. A gentleman answered the door.
"I need to talk to Nox. I'm Elyse."
"I'll have to verify it with him. One moment please." he said as Elyse waited.

I'm on my way. I'm going to need a new wallet - I don't want them finding me.
