- The Broker -
His eyes were fuzzy, the painkillers were strong, the sugery was painful, and he was finally awake. The two others were beside him getting treated, but he was free to leave, but only in crutches or a wheelchair. He close the wheelchair and sat comfortably as he could get. "Sir, Mr Thompson has suffered only minor injuries, and the preservation of his finger will make it easy for it to be stitched back on. It's a strange sensation, but he should be fine" said the doctor of the Citadel. "Thanks, what about Claudia?" The doctor pulled only a grim face. "The damage she has sustained is remarkable. We tried what we can but the structure of her left arm has been completely destroyed. We cannot reattach it." The Broker simply looked down as he tried desperately to hide the tears, before looking up to something...something worth trying. He grabbed Cooper's arm and asked the doctor "Can you attach this?" The doctor was confused. "We can try, but this will require overnight surgery, and the success rate then is still slim--" "Then try it, and send Cooper's belongings back to The Tower." said Broker is a slightly seething voice. "I trust you doctor...just bring back my sister." He wheeled himself out of the room and into the hallway of the base of operations. He was Lilly approaching, and simply sighed deeply.

"What on earth is your problem?" Lilly cried, trying her best to sustain her voice at a normal level but wasn't able to. As she saw the ajar door, she knew The Broker was in and she had slammed the door open as she addressed The Broker. Her face was vicious, she was glaring at The Broker and simply stood at the end of his hospital-like bed. - Hunter -
Luke felt slightly faint, and decided to lay down on their bed as he looked up wondering what Lilly was going to do. He wanted to get up, but lacking the energy he fell into a deep sleep.

Something had distracted her, her light black boody was only flowthing on the wind. She had taking her way out of the chity for the last day, been around the animals she still feelt a big conection to even if she was trying to find her way back to the human word. WHit a soft turn she let her boody ride the wind on the way for the ground, where si more or les whitout even looking if someone was around changed to her human self in the middle of the street. - Fear -
Sitting on a random bench in the middle of the chity somewhere just thinging even thou she had been taking the last day to think about her comeback to the city .
- Charm -
Half drunk she stumbeld out the door whit the guard behind her whit a stern face. She did not care for a fuss now, even if she did not know why they whanted her to leave the bar, it might had been some fuss that all the gay men was constantly buying her drinks while she half way was having sex whit a lovely bond chick. Whit a "humpf" she only started to stretch her arms as she walked down the street, not realy knowing what fun to do know. She had kinda had a kick start in the free again, know she probably needed someone to get to know before having more fun wrecking stuff.

- The Broker -
The Broker wheeled down the corridor alongside Lilly. "This was never meant to happen" he said to both Lilly and himself softly and repeatedly. "It was suppose to be an in and out job, simple, right?" he gibbered on, boarding on insanity. "Just in and out, no harm, but then Snowflake got free and sic'd her Ravagers on us, no one should die, no one should die, no one should die..." He blinked twice before his voice could be more coherent. "And then the stadium, simple hostage exchange, Felix guaranteed safety, then Coop- COOPER...he arrived, and it went to hell." He stopped by a member of staff who grabbed him some water. He drank it and nodded in thanks. "They wanted Felix and my reputation, we saved both, but the chaos of The Tower, Ravagers, Cooper." He nearly broke down and took a deep breath. "We're lucky to be alive."

"I know what happened, and do you think this was successful?" Lilly whispered, still glaring down at The Broker. "My brother was almost killed by a fucking chopper! He was shot! And not only that but what is going to happen to me? What if Ragno hears of this? I told you not to go on this mission, and you didn't listen. I trusted you, and look what happened!" Lilly looked away, holding her head in her hands as she paced before looking back at The Broker. "And what the fuck was your sister doing? Convincing my brother to come back to you, because of what you fucking did to some useless bitch and her brother! You torturing them, for whatever fucking reason and ending up with my brother risking his life, to saved yours! How did this happen?" Lilly was still glaring at The Broker, waiting for an answer.

- The Broker -
The Broker wheeled himself round to look at Lilly with a somber tone, and answered "I'm asking the same questions myself, and there are a few things. One, the mission was successful, we got Argent off the record, the Pursuer will be discharged, and we can repair the city despite the setback. Two, I don't know why Claudia tried to save Snowflake, for whatever reason I would like to know myself, there has to be something, but she's lost an arm so neither you nor I can ask." The Broker pulled out his phone. "And three, Snowflake left with Crimson, not the Ravagers, and I know where they will go to just to recover of they separated from the rest." The Broker wheeled up to Lilly and looked at her in the eye. "I know this is...." he tried to muster some words before he sighed. "Point is, would you do what you can if you thought your younger brother was in danger?"

Lilly looked at The Broker, listening for a moment and for the first time began trying to calm herself down. The Broker had good points, despite the fact that Claudia was still enough to make Lilly's blood boil for what she had done, but she lowered herself, looking directly at The Broker whispering; still angry. "He was in danger because of you and your stupid fucking plan. Nothing will stop me from saving him," Lilly looked at The Broker, still glaring but still waiting for another response. Her anger was still there, but she was holding back as much as she could.

"Don't trust him, Lilly." A cold voice rang out as a silhouette slipped through the wall like a shadow come to life. "He's manipulative and cold and all that matters were his objectives. This happened because he tortured Snow and held her brother. But you won't see him an accepting that because it's easier to appeal to your love for your brother." Shade crossed the room and sat down, tilting her head. "Please. Continue your lies, Broker."

"Who are you?" Lilly said through gritted teeth as she simply opened the water bottle in hand, resting a hand above the opening, ready to strike in the case that this was another enemy. Lilly knew The Broker was right but her anger was clouding her judgement and wondered if The Broker was manipulating her. Nonetheless she couldn't trust the woman who had appeared from the wall. Right now, Lilly felt like she couldn't trust anyone.

"I'm speaking as a younger brother myself Shade." Broker said softly, before refocusing his attention back to Lilly. "I should've anticipated it, and I am aware that the root of everything that just happened was down to a horrible lapse of judgement." He paused for a little. "And...yes I am manipulative, that is my trade, but I wouldn't put the city at stake for that." He turned his wheelchair around and headed towards the door to his room, before turning back and saying "I think we can discuss this with clearer heads in the morning, we are all tired and incredibly worried for our family, but we need to rest." He made an attempted to reach for the door knob, but couldn't make it. He cursed himself and, oddly enough, turned to Shade. "Can you please open the door?" he asked softly, as to not put on a hostile tone.

Lilly strided over to the door and held it open for The Broker, as she screwed the cap back onto her water bottle. I really need a satchel or something. Lilly thought as she glared at The Broker, and the newly appearing woman named Shade as she kept the door open.

"My dear, I am Shade." The voice would have accompanied a smile, had her featureless face been caperble of that. "I am a recent... Friend of the Broker. And a more recent foe." She ignored the man to focus on Lilly. "He tricked me. When I was lost and alone and losing myself he pretended to be better. He acted as if he knew a better way. He lied about caring to gain my faith." Her tone was hard now, showing her pain. "And then he revealed himself. He tortured a captive, and drew a gun in a child. I saw him for who he was and it almost broke me once more. He is callous and vicious and a man no one should trust... And his arrogance got your brother, and Jason, and his own sister wounded today. Snow wouldn't have hunted him if he had shown restraint but a day ago." She shook her head and sighed, opening the door. "There you go, Jonathan. I, unlike you, have not yet become cruel."

"I don't care who you are. This situation is behind me and The Broker right now," Lilly growled, too angry at the world to care about her manners or making impressions, and even she could tell that the woman who presented herself as, Shade, simply wanted to manipulate her feelings about The Broker and already despised this woman for even attempting it.

"Hate she who tells the truth." Shade stood back, as if slapped. "As you wish. I will find another who will be more receptive to my warnings." She looked at them both. "I wont let him hurt another. Even if it means the end of this Citadel." And then, she was gone.

The Broker looked at Shade and said "And I think you and I know that 'cruel' people can change...and thanks, for the door. We'll talk in the morning, settle things if we can." He wheeled through to the dark room and closed the door. To the left was Alex, slouched against the wall fast asleep, Broker couldn't help but smile. And onto the right was Mira, sleeping on one side of the king sized bed. The Broker hummed in surprise as the adorable girl, even if he was about to talk the other side. As much as he'd like to sleep on the floor, doctor demanded he stay on a soft surface when resting. He struggled to climb under the covers without waking the little one, and starred at the roof before closing his eyes, realising that this was the first time in 3 days that he was able to sleep on a proper surface. He smiled, and he drifted away.
