It took some more time afterward but the group managed to dodge the cops, and the police long enough to get to The Stray Sheep. The boys up front opened the door, and ordered everyone out. Having them out of it they informed them they were taking Zion's, and Aya's body to a local morgue run by Black Hand's hired doctors. The bodies would be taken care of by them. As East walked outside he saw Skull, and the two immediately locked eyes, Skull laughed, [color=fff200]"Hey pretty boy you don't look so good. How's it feelin' to be working with the guy who killed your partner all those years ago?"[/color] Skull openly mocked East who looked ready to destroy the whole truck. However he noticed Verd's leg, and looked at Skull was disgust, [color=fff79a]"What the fuck did you do?"[/color] East demanded of him as Skull cackled. [color=fff200]"My job you fucking tool. Now get back to attempting your pathetic meandering that's amounting to getting yourself killed. If you ever actually want to go all the way you know where to find me."[/color] Skull said before driving away once his men funneled back into the truck, and drove away. [color=fff79a]"What the hell? He let you get shot? Whatever get inside I'll call in the doctors upstairs they can get you fixed up. May need a cybernetic prosthetic."[/color] commented East as he picked Verd up with one arm, and forced him in doors. 

As they entered the bar Shade Walker was talking on the phone with someone. He still had his mask on but something was different. Other than his usual crass tone he was a bit gentler. [color=8882be]"-I'll see you later then. Have the other kids make sure they keep their manners for Tatsumi. And make sure there's no more fighting. I'll see you all later."[/color] Shade said before he hung up, and turned his attention to the group. He looked at them and sighed. [color=8882be]"So then your teammates failed whatever assignment they got assigned to? I don't know what happened but I apologize that I couldn't tell you. Other than that congratulations with your skill you managed to prove yourself capable of staying within the organization. Let this be the standard that shows The Black Hand expects success, and failure is paid for in due time. I recommend getting some rest we're off the job for the next few days. Another group is on the hot seat at the moment before we can properly get assigned jobs. However due to the lack of numbers I may need to assign East to your group. He is your sub-commander but he is not above the low-man jobs we're assigned to."[/color]
