Everyone was trickling in. The world was getting more and more chaotic as the moments passed. The protest could turn violent. But Dorian did not think even Ivan's own talent would win him any battles. What truly did the Sergeant know about killing a god? Granted he was far better equipped than any Atharim ever, except perhaps an Atharim god. And Dorian knew one precisely - so did Ivan.
When Ivan left, Dorian followed him out the door, when they were sufficiently far enough away Dorian called out "Ivan."
Ivan turned. "Look, what you did in there....I know what that meant for you to do. I'd like to stay and help but I can't. Something's gonna happen."
Dorian nodded. "I won't take much of your time. We do what we have to do in this job. You remember the boy we met after Volodin met his end?"
Ivan frowned as if surprised. "Yeah....Nox. We went hunting in the tunnels. He helped me."
"I never caught his name. If I look him up in our system or the Atharim system they will know I've spoken to him and anyone with whom I speak will be put to question. There is no doubt in my mind about what will happen to me. I need allies. He is like my son. He is like me. I need his contact information."
Dorian couldn't believe what he was going to do. "I need to strike a bargain to insure the safety of my son."
Ivan looked at him for a moment and then nodded. He pulled out his wallet and brought the info up for the sync. "You're a good man, Dorian."
Dorian laughed. "That is not what you were saying a few hours ago."
Ivan laughed and shrugged. "Hey, I can admit I was wrong."
Dorian smiled. "Stay safe, Ivan. You don't know the extent of what awaits you out there."
Dorian couldn't go with him. He had other things to worry about - his son being the top priority but that was for a later time.
Dorian took a look at the contact and changed the name that was sent over via the sync. "CI". Dorian sent Nox a text - "We need to speak, I have a secret to share with you. --Dorian Vega"
Personal stuff aside now. Dorian stepped back into the meeting room and waited for their illustrious leader to make an appearance. The doc was staring at the names. "Dorian, we don't want to know what this cost us do we?"
Dorian smiled. "No, Doctor, you do not."
