Ray and his people are dead. So are two members of my staff and a 21 year old guy who came to the club for a drink. I...I don't know what to think. What to say. What to do. It's my club. I'm responsible for keeping people safe there. I have weapons there. Those weapons didn't do us any good. Because 15 demons with guns and 30 or so hostages? The

*crawls onto the bed beside Rhia and curls himself carefully around her*

Hey evil Lady.

[xxrhiannonxx]

*leans her head against his*

Hey.

[dingosatemybaby]

How much duct tape should I bring you?

*touches her face*

You feel kind of broken.

[xxrhiannonxx]

I'll be all right. Talked to Connor and he's going to check on Destiny after he talks to Dylan.

*leans in to his touch*

I could feel you through the bond. That's what kept me sane because things were so out of control in there. It kept spiralling further and further out...

*looks down*

Do you think he chose to come after Connor and Destiny because he knew me?

[dingosatemybaby]

Nope.

Think he would have gone after them anyway. You were just there. He would have done it some other way if your club wasn't there.

He would have killed everyone inside if he got the seer. No one could have lied to him, you know.

See, he had to answer questions if they were asked. Part of his um deal with his powers was this clause that he must answer questions truthfully. Thing is, the flip side, he knows when he's being lied too.

I...I couldn't protect my people, Oz, and I grieve for them. I grieve for the three who died, but I'm so fucking relieved it was the kids. I know it sounds wrong, but it's like, the kids survived so everything else just falls into place.

[dingosatemybaby]

That's normal.

You're happy people survive, and it makes you feel bad because others didn't. But it's ok to be happy they're alive. It's ok to be glad you're alive too.

*finally looks up at him*

You know what he wanted me to do, right? You know the choice he tried to force on me?

[dingosatemybaby]

He wanted you to give her up or get Dylan hurt or killed.

Evil Lady, he made the choice to hurt people. Not you.

He already had all his plans for them, he was just playing with you. You did good, kept him busy till we got there.
