"All I have to do is find him..I will deal with it."
There was a finality to what he said even quiet.
"Come near her again, And you will both wake up wondering what on this miserable little blue speck had just hit you, do I make myself clear? "

"Unlike Brooklyn we don't go searching for trouble to pass the time. We keep our distance as long as she does.
And that distance includes the Pentecostal.
If she goes after Bishop or Belle outside of the ring again you'll need more than salt.
And that is my civil, we will gladly stay out of your way if you stay out of ours."

"I can make no promises, Brooklyn is Brooklyn and I'm not supposed to interfere..But I'll make sure it is more bussiness , less personal is that ...fair?"

"As fair as you can get while dealing with Brooklyn..." I paused a moment, ready to walk away, but I was curious.
"You don't strike me as a... whatever you are, looking for a profit. Why Brooklyn? Surely that little voice in her head isn't that important. I've seen more valuable beings than that."

A head tilt and a small gentle smile even as the mask goes on.
"How would the Middle Raine put it? Ah yes..."
A slow nod.

Of course that was his response. He slipped on the mask and that was the cue to leave while civil was still a factor.
Hopefully everyone could avoid each other... yeah...
Out the door and to the car. Nothing was said, we sat in silence, the radio wasn't even on.... This was going to be hell later.

I stood at the window in my room, watching the rain fall.... watching her leave as one. No shotgun went off so I could assume they kept it... civil.
I didn't see his bike leave, come to think of it, I didn't even hear the bike arrive, perhaps he had a car? Does it even matter? A boom of thunder echoed through the valley, shaking the house as a streak of lightening lit the night sky. The small lamp beside my bed flickered before everything returned to normal.
I rested my hands on the window sill as my breath fogged up the window. I nearly drew a face in the fog... nearly.
"Stupid bastard..." A soft spot? Perhaps... but that was nearly hardened, I think.

"We don't need too many enemies, do we? Piece by piece Winters"
A nod and a smirk.
"I Assume you heard enough?"

"We?" I turned to face him, that mask still on. I leaned my ass against the sill as I crossed my arms. "You knew I would, what happened that made Remmi risk Nero? Becoming whole means you hurt Nero, not Remmi."
Was that really that important? Or was I avoiding the topic of Jack. I dug my nails into my arms as I thought about it... I had an assumption, but to assume and know are different things. Apparently Nero isn't the only one with a rage issue.

"I doubt Remmi is much like a soul, who knows maybe you'd free Remmi."
I stopped, needing to not think about that theory. Somehow stop the wheels from turning... I heard the final threats, I would love to test the theory but I would really like to not piss off V in the process. If I wanted him gone I should probably let him finish his first job.
I sighed, knowing the best way to distract myself from Nero and Remmi... "So unless you plan to track down Cross I guess I'm the next one for you to question." It wasn't a question, more of a statement.

I was staring at him but I wasn't there. I was in the past and I was considering how much to tell him. Could I get away with the highlights? No, he would want details, details I wasn't sure I wanted to share.
"Jack betrayed me."
How wasn't that important.
"Eventually he was sloppy, the effects of Bathory's infection. It made it easier to follow him when he was trying to follow her... Cross needed... something and I needed help getting Remmi awake.
Cross had a past with Nero so it was an easy in, especially with her and Louis separated. And well... Jack had to pay for more than just his sins." That last part was layered with sarcasm as I was finally back in the room with V.
"So I let Cross kill him, as long as Nero helped. After that I cut ties with Cross... until he fucked up the opprotunity I handed him on a golden fucking platter... but Cross is not what you're caring about.
Jack is dead, Cross killed him. Sebastian was his brother and never believed the fact I had nothing to do with his dissapearance.
It's a shame you had to kill him, my father needed more men like that. I remember when people actually feared consequences and held respect. But Sebastian was a soldier, whispering in the right ear.
Jack is the reason they're both dead... As I said... consequences." |

V listened intently to the whole thing even as he sat down mentally picking it all apart even as he nodded with a grim smirk.
"I see.."
V stood up slowly.
" Worry not, Brooklyn I -will- end this charade. I know what I must do. "

"Some Days you sound like a soldier, Other days you sound like you run the show."
I couldn't read him, I think a part of me stopped trying... or caring.
I wasn't fond of the Guardian idea... but at the same time if he told me we were leaving I know I would grab my stuff.
Something just clicked, I think I could trust him. That would probably explain why I wanted him to finish his mission, little soldier...
"Do what you must, not like I can stop you.."
I'm just Human after all...
"Send my regards to Remmi though. Nero stole that nifty little phone you left me. Something tells me you'll bump into her eventually."
