Pain then remembered that Emerald wasn't home, so he used a portal to get to Kaido's house. And to the only motherly figure he had.

Pain: (knocks) Hey, Kaido? You home?

The teal octohog opens the door then flinches.

Kaido: Abyss?! Why are you red?!

Pain: Oh, we haven't met, have we? I'm Pain, Abyss'...."darker" side.

Kaido: You're not gonna hurt anyone, right?

Pain: Nah. That's boring anyways.

Kaido: ...

Pain: It was a joke- Anyways! Is Grace home?

Kaido: Y-Yup, C'mon..

Kaido leads Pain inside and straight to Grace, and then Pain taps her to get her attention. She turns slightly to see the 2 standing behind her.
