Lora sighed, scratching the head of one of several wolf pups sleeping on her lap and around her on the ground. She stared off into the night sky with a blank, remorseful look on her face before shaking her head, muttering something to herself below hearing level. She laid her chin on her chest, closing her eyes as she continued to mutter something.
Meanwhile, X held out a hand for Kisara to stop, muttering,
"We're here. Stay out of sight."
With that, he 'touched down' onto the ground, walking towards Lora, of whom could not see him yet.
"Her will requires bolstering, something I may have damaged..." X added.

Kisara nodded solemnly, clenching her hands. She understood that there was a tender situation going on here, and heeded the Zoanoids words, remaining out of sight.
Onyste shivered, managing not to make any noise, so as not to disturb the wolf pups. She mentally growled softly, looking at the young animals.

X finally stopped about five feet from Lora, of which had caused the wolf pups to grow nervous, all raising their heads and glancing around, whimpering. Lora took notice, and slowly tensed her muscles, ready to jump to her feet if neccesary.
"What is it, little guys?" She whispered to the pups.
X finally revealed himself to Lora, who did a doubl-etake at the spectral Zoanoid. She paled extremely quickly, edging away from him and shouting,
"Where the hell'd you-"
She paused, eyes widening upon discovering who it was.
"...X...?"
The specter nodded, arms folded. She blinked, mouth agape before she asked,
"But you... you're... how?"
"I'm just here to finish some earthly business of mine, Lora, so that I may pass on to the next life... as much as I detest the idea..." He replied, muttering at the end.
Lora could not respond, choked by her sudden surprise and sorrow. Knowing she could not, and would not speak at the moment, X merely smirked, kneeling down before her.
"Lora... I think you know what I have to finish here."
Her eyes clouded over as he continued,
"As you well know, ever since that Christmas party Solranous had, you began to grow... 'affectionate' towards me. You yourself said so after the Aparoid attack."
His eyes softened, and he looked away, shoulders sagging.
"To tell you the truth, I began to like you back. We had a lot in common, and I know it would've helped us both greatly, but unfortuneatly, we never did find out..."
"X..." She muttered sadly.
He looked back up at her, continuing,
"That's why you wanted to end your life a few months back, isn't it? You were heartbroken. But someone talked you out of it."
She solemnly nodded, muttering,
"Yeah, O'Malley did."
X nodded back, continuing,
"Before I go, I want to say this, Lora... I don't mourn for me. I'll be in a better place soon. You're still alive, and I hope you will be for quite some time now. Spend it not in sorrow, but enjoy it. You have friends here, despite what you seem to think sometimes."
He placed an ephemeral hand to her cheek, smiling.
"Find someone else to love... I know you can. And I know you'll find him soon..."
With that, he stood up, hands back in his pockets.
"Goodbye, Lora. May we meet in the afterlife."
He slowly turned around and walked off, slowly dissapating from the lycanthrope's view.
"G...goodbye..." She muttered in a hoarse tone.
X re-appeared by Kisara, sighing.
"To the Abandonded District, I suppose." He stated in a low tone.
((And so, the question has been answered!))

Kisara nodded, moving Onyste away from Lora and the wolf pups so that they wouldn't get startled, and then Onyste thundered away for the Abandonned District.
