Zoe's Office - November 27

Zoe had enjoyed the long weekend (there were some parts she'd enjoyed very, very much), but she was also glad to be back in the office. There were a number of ongoing affairs that needed to be settled before she could really put her mind at ease.

Zoe glanced up, giving El a soft smile. "Hi. Come in, please," she said. "How are you?"

"I've been worse," El replied as he entered. His face was a bit bruised. "Much worse."

"I suppose that's reassuring," she said, frowning lightly when she noticed the bruises. "Do you want to tell me what happened with Nadia?"

"She was kidnapped by agents of a Mexican drug cartel. They planned on using her to lure me out so they could kill me."

"I'm glad to see it didn't work," Zoe replied. "Are these agents going to come back for you, or for her?"

"Not very likely. All of them are dead. Well, I know that almost all of them are dead. One I think is dead. I do't think they are likely to try again, though. Too costly."
