"I always thought VSC was a reasonably decent multinational, well decent for as far multinationals go anyway. It's strange that they want to deal with Genocide and Red Witch. I guess they're not as clean as I thought," Karen shrugs, "What did they tell you?"
“Well VSC isn’t a bad company I guess, I don’t know some seem to think they are really bad, while others think that only certain elements are bad. I don’t really care, if they are involved with Red Witch and Genocide, then they are going down. But, we need to talk to the informant,” she leans forward and crafts a message and then sends it.
“I have never met him, so I am worried, it just seems convenient, but then again, Kal and I are strangers here. We can use any break we can get, you know,” Aris replies. She turns to Karen, “As far as what VSC has been into, nothing can be pinned down, but they have been suspected of funding several military dictatorships across the globe, providing illegal technology, and well just about anything else you can think of. But for all the times they have been in court, nothing has come of it.”
Cassie
Jun Min nods, “Alright, well I don’t think you need to worry about not saying the right thing. Your young, no one has it all together, I can promise you that. The students here are just as confused as you are, even if they don’t show it. But more importantly I would not worry about Legacy, I was no on the committee for selection, but I do know that the UNJE does not explain itself for why it does what it does. Those not selected may never know why, but you can’t let that get to you.”
She leans back in her chair, “Your views, are your views. I don’t think played much a factor in the selection Cassie. But it is pointless to worry about them, now. I don’t think you should leave, the world is dangerous for someone like you, and the UNJE wants to help you. You are just a very special case, and as I said earlier, information about you, is not exactly easy to come by. You will have to be patient, I know we will figure this out. But I need you to do one thing for me. I need you to forget about why your not on Legacy, I know it may seem like a huge deal but it isn’t, what is important is finding out who you are, and why you are here. Okay?”
Kelly
The bolts slam into Neuro and he arches his back in pain, spitting out more blood. He laughs laying there as the world turns dark, “Interesting…” he coughs, “is their hope for me, after all is said and done?” he looks, “All the spoils of a wasted life, all of this for you…”
“The destiny I have chose, is all becoming clear… the currents have their say, the time is drawing near, it washes me away… makes me disappear… and I descend from grace… I will take my place in the great below…” he coughs, finally looking to Kelly, “I can still feel you, even so far away…” he lifts his hand in her direction.
“I can still feel you even so far away, I can still feel you Kelly. This phantom before you is dying,” he coughs blood, “but for all my evil, I always did love you, you were so special to me. I had to break you, bring you to my level so that you could one day, learn to love me,” his eyes start to glaze, “but I see that I am truly weaker then I could ever believe. I am but a ghost, an errant memory, and now I am nothing. You are free of me, but I shall linger in your memories, and you will be free of me, until you learn life’s ultimate lesson. That life…” he rasps, “Is pain…”
Then everything goes white.
Kelly sees the portly woman sink into her chair, in a feint. And sweat beads up on her forehead. Her hand tightly grips Tommy’s hand, and his squeezes back, as Mr. Smith tends to the mentalist.
Mr. Smith speaks, “She is alive, but in shock, Mr. McKain, I shall escort her to the medical wing.”
Tommy nods, “Good,” he turns to Kelly, “are you alright? You were under for about four hours…”
Bangkok
Yoshi shrugs, “Dude, we can plan till we get tired, Mark make a command decision and lets act. Chances are Strength is at this club as we speak. I suggest we keep the couples broken up, no need to have someone do something stupid,” he winks to Anika.
Star looks to the monitor, “It may be prudent to set up multiple evacuation points, this could become a running fight. If we don’t contain him quickly, things could get ugly fast. Evacuating the area will only alert him as well, whatever we do, citizens will be in danger.”
