Arron bade the ringmaster a farewell. He hopped on his board with the slave & sped off to Durem.

The slave looked around curiously as they went. He didn't recall ever being in Durem before, so everything looked so new to him and exciting. He coughed a few times due to the smoke in the air, not used to being in such a big city.
"The person lives in an apartment building with the number 17500955." he told Arron, reading off the card. If this person had wanted to meet with him, he wondered what the reason was. His nerves started to be tested the more he thought of it.

It took awhile to find the apartment. Arron stopped & checked the nameplates to see if the woman was on there.

There was a name-plate for each apartment, but most people named theirs something strange like "Nekochan185's Neko-pad" or "Isengard". Luckily, one of the name plates said "Alexis's Home of Champions", so it was likely they'd found the right place.
"That's what the card says her name is. I'm... worried though." the slave uttered.
"What if it turns out I'd hurt her in the past?" he questioned.

(PFFT. Isengard. Are there gonna be Hobbits there? *badumtish!*)
The mechanic hit the buzzer. "...If th-that's the case we sh-should ex-explain that is-is not y-you anymore & ap-apologize..." he said quietly waiting for a response. Arron hoped the woman was kind.

The slave nodded, then took a deep breath and tried uselessly to adjust his shirt properly on his shoulder. He waited nervously as the buzzer was hit, and looked at the door with his nerves bouncing all over the place.The door opened, and a woman was standing there. She had long dark brown hair that fell messily over her shoulders, and soft green eyes that peeked out from under her shaggy bangs. She wasn't very tall, and looked even shorter in comparison to Arron, but she was likely in her mid-twenties. A smile came to her face as she saw the slave, and she opened the door wide.
"You came! Quick, come inside, I've got so much I'd like to talk with you about!" she said with excitement, gesturing for the two to come inside.

(Tc?)
Arron blinked at the woman's enthusiasm, but took it as a good sign. He nodded & would follow the slave. The young woman looked like she did have answers, at least that is what Arron hoped.

The women led them into a room and sat down in a recliner chair across from a large sectional sofa.
"Please, have a seat. It's been such a long time." she smiled, crossing her legs. She wore a short white dress with thin straps, and a pair of mismatched socks.
"Ah... thank you ma'am..." the slave sat down on the sofa by the edge, awkwardly shifting his position a few times before sitting up straight."Ma'am?" Alexis raised an eyebrow, surprised by the formal way he spoke with her. She didn't seem to understand why he'd said that, and by the way she sudden began to study his appearance, she didn't understand why he was dressed that way either.

"...Ms. Al-Alexis... he-he lost his me-memory." said Arron quietly. He hoped she would understand what had happened & would possibly shed some light on the slave's past. He sat down beside the slave.

Alexi's eyes widened when she was told of the young man's amnesia, and she became speechless for a short time.
"You really lost your memory? For how long back? And... what've you been doing all this time?" she asked, rapid-fire. Her expression was one of worry.The slave frowned, unsure if he would be able to tell her about what he'd become if she knew of his past. He merely shook his head, and looked at the floor."I'd... rather not say, but I can only remember as far back as three or four years ago." he explained simply, hoping she wouldn't ask him to elaborate."Woah... well I met you about five years ago, so I can tell you what I remember back then, if it'll help." she responded, thoughtfully tapping her chin with her index finger.

The young man did not have much to say on the matter because this was actually between the slave & his friend from his past. "Th-That would be great... Y-You could start with his n-name..." he suggested.

"You even forgot your name? Woah... I bet you had to re-learn how to do everything then." she scratched her head awkwardly before nodding.
"To be honest, it was a pretty long name, so I only really remember the first name. I'm sorry." she said, a small frown creasing her face.
"Anyway, you name's Talbot." "Ah... Talbot?" the slave uttered, letting the name really sink in. Somehow, it felt familiar to him, so he didn't doubt it was his name. He nodded, smiling softly.
"Thank you. It... means so much to me to know my real name." he said.

The mechanic smiled & nodded, happy to hear his friend's actual name. He would be calling the slave by his actual name from then on. "So... wh-what else do y-you know about him?" he asked politely.

"Well he didn't tell me much. He was very mysterious about most of his past, I think because he was on his way to doing something important with his lion friend." Alexis explained thoughtfully, staring at the ceiling and looking around the room as she fished for information.
"He didn't have his ears pierced though, and he had long enough hair to put in a ponytail. Oh! And he never wore anything black. His clothes were usually bright colours, or white." she added.
"Er... I don't know if any of this is helpful so far." she wondered out loud."No no, this is all very helpful, thank you." Talbot interjected, shaking his head. He'd known he likely didn't have his ears pierced in his past, since his Mistress had done it to him herself, but the long hair was something he wasn't aware of.

Frowning, Arron pulled out his notebook & was writing all of this down. After a few minutes, he had sketched a rough sketch of what his friend may have looked like with long hair. "...L-Like this..?" he asked, "...Wh-what happened to the lion?" Arron wondered if the lion was still around then they would find more clues to Talbot's past.
