Mako was taken aback by the sudden shift of topic in her question. He didn't exactly know what she meant by it. Was she asking if he was going to leak their info or if they were going to see some Unknowns on the way there. He asked, "What about the Unknowns?"

Vex really seemed to have a fondness for nature. Mako was also fond of it, having grown up in a rural area. He replied to her, "I think we'll get to have a look."
Mako lapsed into thought, thinking of an answer to her question, before replying. "Your standard forest-dwelling animals, with the addition of a few giant crabs by the river." The crabs were a particularly unusual aspect even by his standards.
Mako noticed her struggling to come up with an answer. Normally, he didn't really talk to other people that much. Though he noticed that he's become quite a bit more talkative around her. He wondered if he was losing his edge and going soft for a bit before dismissing the notion. "Don't be surprised if you haven't heard of it, it's an obscure location. Only the locals really know about it."
Mako looked at her, and noticed how she had behaved regarding her sister. He thought that perhaps there was a traumatic event that she experienced. His first thought was betrayal, after all, he was no stranger to it himself. He didn't really know how to comfort her, he wasn't very good at talking to people unless it was about business or threatening them. "It's in Emwhich Forest."
He paused for a moment as he thought about his plan before replying, "After we get off our stop, we're going to have to walk to my place, then we can track down the lich from there. I should probably tell you that it's deep inside a forest, so take care not to get lost."
"Good." Mako plooked out the window as well, and eyed the pair of Hunters. He did notice that the Hunter that threatened Vex was behaving oddly, almost as if he was locked into a trance when her sister was mentioned. His eyes also changed color as he snapped out of the trance. Before long, the train started moving, and the outline of the pair began to shrink until vanishing a few seconds later.
"I see." Mako would keep that in mind. Though he felt nothing when he first met with Bella, but he couldn't be completely sure that she didn't use the full extent of her magic to charm him. "Keep your emotions in check next time. I will not always be capable of saving you." He wanted to keep a low profile, and having Vex lash out at every nearby Hunter under her sister's control wasn't the best way to sneak around.
Mako glared at the Hunter through his visor, a silent warning telling him not to interfere again. After purchasing tickets, he led Vex to the train, looking around to see if any others might be watching them. Once the coast was clear, he removed the cuffs and asked her: "Are you alright?"
Vex's acting was surprisingly good, Mako honestly didn't expect her to play along that well. He sighed in relief as the Hunter seemed to have believed him. The entire ruse fell apart however, when Vex took it a little too far and incurred the wrath of the Hunter. Mako's instincts kicked in, attempting to grab and pull the Hunter away from Vex before ejecting a pair of steel blades from his forearm gauntlet and holding it up to the Hunter's throat. "I need her alive to complete my mission."
