Xerxes was still quite perplexed by what Armorius had said before disappearing. [b]Armorius wants me to look for WHO? Some guy named Zachery? How am I supposed to find him?[/b] he thought to himself.
He wandered along the dark streets of the city, making sure he wasn't attracting attention, but with his designer shirt and all, he figured it wouldn't take long to get noticed. He was right.

Two thugs appeared out of a dark alley as Xerxes walked by. One was holding a dagger; the other, a baseball bat.
"Hold it right there, fancy pants!" Xerxes mentally facepalmed at this statement. "Give us all your money!"
Xerxes obviously had no time for such nonsense, so he held out his hand, his palm facing towards the two thugs. "How about I say no and you two leave me alone? It's much better than the alternative I have for you," he calmly said.
"You little snot nose brat!" yelled the thugs as they charged Xerxes. In a bright flash, Xerxes summoned from his hand a blazing silver vortex of fire that illuminated the entire street as if it were day. The two thugs screamed in terror, and as quickly as the vortex was summoned, it disappeared; the two thugs that were once there no longer remained. A bit of ash flew across the street. "Burn," Xerxes said, almost chuckling a bit at the pun. Lights came on in nearby buildings. [b]Shoot, I should get out of here before anyone finds out what just happened here.[/b] he thought to himself with a bit of worry. And with that, Xerxes ran down the street as fast and as quiet as he possibly could, while at the same time seeking out the one called Zachery.
