[center][h1][color=gray]Blaque[/color], [color=0076a3]Darric[/color] and [color=39b54a]Willard[/color] at the base [/h1][/center] Not too long after leaving the Orphanage, Blaque was still carrying along the box he took from Caretaker's office with intent on discovering just what the hell was in it. With the children heading another route, Blaque trusted in the people that he sent them to to take care of the rest. Now he could focus on this situation with Father Francis. He had not heard back from Darric since he left the orphanage but trusted he was okay. It was already a risk sending Paige in and both he and Paige knew the risks but went along with it anyway. He already knew Darric was not thrilled and whatever happened, Blaque said he would take responsibility for it as he had the say so whether or not she should have gone or not. Coming into the building with the box in hand, Blaque went pass the bar to check if Darric and Paige were back. Down the hall he caught a glimpse of the light that was on in the medical room and walked towards there, turning into the door frame to notice Paige laying down, while Mike and Darric were present. [color=gray] What happened to her?..[/color] Walking in to get closer with a concerned expression on his face, noticing the bandages on her. Darric glanced up and saw Blaque. He stood up and pulled the door shut behind him as he moved forwards backing Blaque out of the room.[color=0076a3] "How is she? They damn near killed her that's how she is. That monster knocked her up. She had to have an abortion. She is a mess that is how she is. They flogged her with a knotted rope with glass embedded in it!"[/color] Darric's fist clenched and he looked like he was going to kill someone and soon. After hearing what all happened, a long deep huff came from Blaque as even though the shades he wore, covered his eyes, regret was on his face for what he had her go through. His face turned away for a moment with shame [color=gray] Dammit...[/color] he said softly. [color=gray] It's my fault this happened...I know the dangers and I still let her handle it. ...if she can't forgive me for this, I understand. Darric, I should owe you an apology for this as well.[/color] Blaque said in an upset tone. [color=gray] I won't send her on anything like that again but...I know right about now, you want to head back and seek vengeance...for every bit of pain she suffered..[/color] Coming down the hallway, the distinct thuds of metallic boots resonated against the walls as NERON approached the medical room, Jinx dangling from the machine's outstretched arms, Willard tagging along behind. [color=f9ad81]"Is the medical room occupied, then?"[/color] the automation turned its head in a nearly human fashion from Blaque to Darric, the quizzical phrase breaking the tense air that was hanging in the hall. Willard peered around the leg of the robot, his bright green eyes staring up to Blaque in a confused daze, before he saw Mr. Darric. Smiling, Willard greeted the man with a wave, but stopped as he took note of the intense colors his master and Mr. Darric both had. Clearly something bad had happened, and the boy shuffled back a bit to make sure he didn't get in the way. Darric was seething and barely holding back his rage. [color=0076a3]"Yes, you should have pulled her out sooner. No she won't be doing this again. She already promised me that and yes, I intend to kill that bastard but I'm going to make him suffer first."[/color] Hearing Willard come into the room Darric clenched his jaw and kept it together. The kid looked up to him so he needed to appear calm or at least in control of himself. He turned to Willard, [color=0076a3]"Hey buddy, I heard you did good in there. I had to take off early. I had to go get Paige. She got really hurt on her mission. We did get two of the kids in there out. I wasn't even looking for them but we brought them here. The boy and girl are in the game room over there."[/color] Darric pointed to the other medical rooms and told NERON [color=0076a3]"Those are still open."[/color] Blaque couldn't blame Darric for his anger and hell, Blaque was angry as well. More at himself for what happened but he wanted to bring that cult down. He stared at Darric, not answering as there was no need. There's but so much he can say to calm Darric down but he ultimately needed to apologize to Paige. He felt he owed her for all of this. When Willard spoke, Blaque took a deep breath to try and change his demeanor for the young one to not worry the kid since he's more than likely seeing their intense colors. Blaque let's Darric speak to WIllard and waited for the young one and NERON to head to the medical room before he would speak again. They were going need a hell of a counter attack on the cathedral. With the point of Darric's finger, NERON silently nodded in response as the machine trudged off, entering one of the free rooms and laying the unconscious girl upon the medical table before closing the door to work, leaving Willard in the hallway with the two men. Glancing from one face to the other, the boy silently nodded to Darric's reference to the other children and sent another gaze to Blaque - his signal that he knew something was up, and was worried about Ms. Paige. Finally, the boy turned and ran off to the game room, joining the two other children in the board game they had sprawled out on the floor.
