<em>"If you don't want to do it because of what SpECTRe is doing to supers, I get it. However, the girls who got raped... That was about powers, they didn't do anything. Just being what they were, made them less human to SpECTRe. I may not be human now, but the little boy, Eric, he was..."</em>He sighed and looked away a moment.<br/><br/><em>"None of that is your problem. That's why I told you that I'd make you disappear if that's all you want, Sami. I want to help you, and them... I'm a lost cause, and I understand that... You can disappear, use your power only to stop them from finding you. I just don't want them to find you. For your sake, and for the sake of all the supers they'll make you find,"</em>the sadness that might have been in his voice before was slowly turning into anger. It wasn't at her, but it was definitely there, and it would probably be hard not to feel like the target.<br/><br/><em>"If they find you, just hope it's one of the ones who would shoot you and make it quick. They've tortured, raped, twisted, and humiliated plenty of their targets, and if you refuse to help... I just hope they choose to kill you, if that ever happens..."</em>He looked into her eyes, the first time he had done that so far. His golden eyes were very intriguing, and no matter what color or what was in them, there was human in there. He cared, and he was afraid, and not just for himself.<br/><br/><em>"I won't lie, this isn't fun, and it's underhanded. I have to steal and kill, and sometimes I blur the lines... If I had thought you were in danger, I'd have shot that cop back there... Remember, Sami, I can walk through walls... I wasn't in any danger except for helping you. Maybe that doesn't tell you that you can trust me, but it certainly narrows things down. I clearly don't work for SpECTRe, why would I play you if I did?"</em><br/><br/><em>"I'm not forcing you."</em>He walked to his briefcase and popped the little compartment and placed a large sum and a card on the table,<em>"take the money if you want to go. Don't make large transactions, and don't use any credit cards, bank accounts, or IDs. Hide the money and the gun, and try to have someplace you can always go back to, safely. I already changed your records, and that's a fake ID. Watch for cameras, they know your face, and they can use programs to track you. More than that, you have to find a way to use your powers to get what you need."</em><br/><br/>He looked at her,<em>"you don't even have to leave. You can stay with me for an hour, two, the whole night, to make your decision. You can even ask me to leave. If you stay, I'll wait until you're ready, but I need to hit a hospital and stock up on some adrenaline for my system and get bandaged up a bit. Then, I need to see an old friend."</em>
