Anneyah went back to her earth-sheltered home. Waiting at her door, she met an evil African doctor named Dragonfly dressed in a cloak.
Dragonfly: So Miss Neeyah, It's about time you returned home.
Aneeyah: How do you know my name? Who are you?
DF: I'm Dragonfly and oh! Everyone knows who you are. You're on the wanted list from escaping prison. You're wanted by the FBI with a 10,000 FBI reward for information leading to your capture.
Aneeyah: You come to have me locked up?
DF: Not if you can tell me where Bombylias is.
Aneeyah: The last time I saw him, he was on the urban side of Diverse City. I haven't seen him since then. Now if you would excuse me.
Aneeyah tried to walk past Dragonfly to get to her door. He grabbed her by the arm.
DF: If you can bring him to me, I will not report to the FBI where you are.
Aneeyah looked down at Dragonfly's hand holding her arm. Then Dragonfly took his hand away.
Anneyah: Why? What do you want with Bombylias?
Dragonfly began to lie through his teeth.
DF: He's a very sick man, and what he has is contagious. I am his doctor, and the only one that can help him. I know you know where he is. You have a week to find him and to bring him to me.
Aneeyah turned from Dragonfly to unlock & open her door. When she turned to face him, he had disappeared.
