Wax and TenSoon found themselves chased from the Homeland by the sudden appearance of [[Hemalurgic chimera|Hemalurgic chimeras]], deformed humans under Bleeder’s control, but not before Wax came to realize the full scope of her plan. She didn't want to simply kill the governor, she wanted to incite a city-wide riot.{{book ref|mb5|21}} Wax immediately returned to Innate’s mansion, intent on saving his life once and for all. After entering the governor’s study, Wax noticed a carefully placed gumball, which he recognized to be a sign of trouble, left for him by Wayne. Immediately realizing the truth, that Bleeder had been secretly impersonating the governor the entire time, Wax pulled out his gun. Bleeder opened fire first, killing Innate's guards as she escaped out the window.{{book ref|mb5|22}}

====Confronting a Memory====

Steel-pushing through the night after Bleeder, Wax easily found her, changing bodies again just before she moved to escape. Finally confronting her on the [[Eastbridge]], Wax saw that Bleeder had pointed her gun at him, but she did not fire. With tears in her eyes, she pleaded with Wax to forsake Harmony and be free. Wax ignored the pain he felt, seeing that Bleeder was now wearing the face of his dead wife, Lessie. He did his best not to listen to how well Bleeder could mimic Lessie’s voice and mannerisms.
