His question gives her pause, in the events that occurred after. What had they learned? Had it been all for nothing? She bites down on her lip, resting her head back against the back of the chair and lifts her now healed legs up beneath her to sit upon them despite the shuttering that happens within her systems at the movement because of her ribs.

I think they wanted them and were ready to take them out if given the shot.” A shudder courses through her body at the terrible vibrations. And she hopes she never has to feel those very same uncertainties that she had before. “’Your items for your lives.’” She reiterates the monster, having only but hearing to guide her from there, blue eyes shifting to black and disappearing.
“I summoned a Luxere to help Remi, since Sam and I were invisible. And he told me to go ahead on the hoverboard, to ride it straight forward and I’d reach the Luxere and Remi.

She spends another few moments, unaware of Zuriel’s discomfort, the wary looks, only the sounds that come from the unicorn as Deimos starts the fire. “They told us we were marked.”
Though if it’s any connection to the events occurring, she does not know.
