Regrouping
As soon as arrangements had been made, Robert and Morgaine hopped on the first plane out of Greece to Star City. Morgaine had slept most of the way, wanting to save her strength.

When they arrived in Star City, they got a car under a fake name and Morgaine drove them to Lian's apartment building.

"I should warn you," she said when they arrived, "She will most likely not be happy to see me. I will try and talk to her, but she might resort to attack."

The pair quietly made their way to Lian's apartment, and Morgaine quickly picked the lock on the door.

She couldn't believe who she saw when her and Robert entered the room.

"I thought...I thought..."

In something she rarely did, Morgaine ran to her brother, embracing him.

	"Then we must find her," Morgaine said matter-of-factly. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"What leads do you have?" Robert asks, fighting back the urge to put an arrow in Damien's face right now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"We're getting information as we speak." Slade says, lowering his weapon. He nods curtly at Morgan and somewhat slighter at Robert.

The fact that he'd walked in with /her/ of all people was a warning bell in Slade's head. Considering that Slade himself had been the one to hire Merlyn for Robert's test, which led to Merlyn's death, he found it odd that they were in each other's company.

He wasn't sure that he liked where this was going.

"We should have something soon."

	Having been informed that Robert and Morgaine were in Star City, Rose hopped on her bike and made her way over to Lian's apartment. She went upstairs and opened the door, letting herself in. "I came as soon as I c-" She was cut-off in mid-sentence when she saw who else was in the room with them. "Oh you have got to be fucking kidding me." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Damien blinks as his elder sister enters the room. "Rose...it is good to finally meet you in person." Damien says. "We could use all the help we can get." he says. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Rose, before you go storming out of here, this isn't about /me/. This is about your unborn niece and nephew and that girl you used to watch when you were younger." Slade says. "We need the back-up, Rose. If it makes it easier, I'll leave." Slade offers. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Robert had managed to forget that Damien was also, technically, Rose's brother. He was now standing between two of Damien's sisters and his father. This family was screwed up. "Rose, I didn't know he'd be here." Robert says. "But let's cut to the chase. Damien, how much are you paying us for this?" Robert asks. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'm going to make something very clear," Rose said, staring daggers at her father and Damien. "I'm doing this for Robert, and for Lian and her kids. I am not doing this for you or him." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"We need to figure out where Ra's would be holding her," Morgaine said. "He would have banked on you going after him, Damien." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Your dislike for me is saddening, Rose. We barely know each other." Damien says.

He turns to Morgaine.

"He was always find of South America, but then again, he also loved the desert. Lian hasn't been able to get a message out...and I don't like that." Damien says.

Finally, he looks at Robert.

"I'll pay you and Rose two million American dollars to aid us in this, if money is what you need." Damien says.

	"She wouldn't have been able to get a message out, as he is probably keeping her under lock and key...and finding other ways to break her spirit as well." Morgaine said. It made her feel sorry for Lian. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Rose didn't need the money....but she wasn't going to turn it down. "Works for me," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"Fine. I'm going to call the rest of our team to help us out with this. They should be able to get here inside of twenty-four hours.

As soon as you know where Lian is, we put together a plan and move out." Robert says.

He looks at Rose.

"Hey, thanks for coming. I'm going to call the boss lady." he says, before looking to Morgan.

"Hey, will you be all right?" Robert asks.

	Morgaine turned to him, nodding. "I'll be fine," she said. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Rose looked back at Robert, then at Morgaine, then at Robert again. And then, her face broke into a grin as she began to laugh hysterically. "Oh my God," she said in-between laughs, "You guys totally screwed." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Slade was about to say something when Rose spoke. He looked from Robert to Morgan, and back again...and he couldn't believe he hadn't seen it the moment they walked in. It was practically written on their faces. This was not good. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Damien is musing over the situation, trying to determine where his grandfather had taken Lian and how they would rescue her when his sister's words cut into his reverie. He also looks from Morgaine to Robert, from Robert to Morgaine and back again. His hand slowly drifts toward the hilt of his sword. He takes one breath. "Morgaine. Is this true?" Damien asks.

	"There's a saying, where I'm from, about situations like this. 'Do not ask questions for which you will regret knowing the answers.'" Robert says. "In English, it means "That's none of your god-damned business, so leave it alone. That goes for everyone." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Morgaine's eyes went to Damien's sword. "We have more important matters on our hands than who I sleep with, Damien." She said coolly. "Like getting back Lian and your children." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Rose had to momentarily excuse herself, as she was laughing too hard. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Damien was annoyed, but he left off for now. The safety of his wife and children was paramount. He did give Morgaine a look that informed her they would be discussing this later. He simply narrows his eyes at Robert and goes back to working out his idea. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	hunters_moon 2011-04-01 12:28 am UTC (link)
	"Yeah, going to make that phone call." Robert says, and walks toward the bedroom in the back, excusing himself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"This family is so fucked up." Slade says, going to sit down at the kitchen table. He pulls out one of his guns and starts cleaning it. (Reply to this)(Parent)
