And with that her intentions were revealed. Or so he would have thought under the sitution, she was indeed looking for "Unfettered" but once more what could Gabrielhimself do with that information. Certainly nothing of any use considering he aswell was in search of the mentor. Gabriel gave a nonchalant shrug as he continued walking.
"Quite honestly, I've been looking for him since I've gotte here." He gave a glinting smile thinking over his next choice of words considering the fact that the woman would annalyze it as she always had. It was the gift of having someone loose trust in you, still as victimized as they would have been prior, all it really took was a bit of knowledge. As it was however Gabriel was unconcerned in the matters of the Militia, or Emily for that matter he had bigger fish to fry at the moment.
"He needs to be informed of the current situation...unless tha is he's been consulted prior to my arrival." The nearly taunting grin never faded as he waited eagerly for a reaction, but once again would she give it...

lol, Dynamic Entry
I hope you don't mind me joining in. Been reading through this for some time and have been debating it until now. The school was rather small now that everyone had left. In fact, there wasn't very many people left, as far as Cody knew, it was him and "Winters" which he only knew by. The past few months had been full of many different aspects towards the school, rebuilding, and other things with nice touches towards it. Heck, by now.. Even students still there were given a list of students left over in the school. Cody kept it on him just in case, some of the students had been listed missing after all. .. But it had been quite a while since he'd last heard from "Winters". So he'd considered the facts since that last push. He could have gone missing as well, or hell, Cody could be the only student left in the school that was actually active in anything. Still, just beinga student didn't mean anything special. he was still human. He still trained people at his gym. He still worked hard.. But he wondered about all the students that had gone missing after all. And being human, means you gotta eat. So there he was, off in the other corner, picking out some sandwich meat for himself later on, holding his backpack to his left side. It was important to eat healthy after all. But it seemed that there were more interesting things on the mind. As Cody had spotted someone earlier, looked familiar to what he'd seen in the missing student reports.. Really, really familiar.. Almost like that kid he'd fought in the pharmacy. Almost identical. But Cody couldn't put his finger on it, he needed to be sure. And the only way to be one hundred percent sure, was to compare one of the old photos from earlier on in the year. With that he slowly set his bookbag down, as it looked like he was having a conversation with another girl. And by the sound of their tones, neither of them was pleasant with it. Inside his bookbag, he had a list of students with phots of whom were missing. Both of the teens looked oddly familiar, almost like it was some sort of omen. As they continued bantering about reasons why they were here Cody flipped through a few pages of missing and transfter students. Matrim Ghallagher..Sara Quinn..Addie Balfour..He stopped for a minute on this one. Before laughing to himself. .. This one's ugly, no wonder she's missing. She looks like a clingy whore with attitude. Nobody would want to find her.With that, he tore the page out of the book, chuckling to himself more, openly crumpling up the paper, and throwing it behind his back shaking his head in amusement. As he glanced up at the pair, back to his book as he flipped pages every so often to see if anyone matched. That's when he got his first match. Delos Santos, Emily.He knew that girl looked familiar.. The facial expression was the exact same in the photo. And then the other.. Seran, Gabriel.He KNEW this guy looked familiar, he was there when the students bombarded the Correctional Facility.. And that WAS the same guy that he'd fought with at the pharmacy. .. Frenchie.. A smirk dawned on his face, it was a chance to get his revenge, but for now, he'd listen in.. it seemed that the pair knew each other.. But the important question.. Was that what were a pair of students, considered to be transfers, doing here? There was talk, and what Cody could hear out of bits and peices.. Talk of burning the school down, coming from Frenchie, seemed to be part of a joking matter.. But Cody didn't like jokes. Right now, he didn't like what he was hearing either. And yet, he continued to listen.. While staring a nice big slice of roast beef.. Mmm, that'd look good on a sandwich. Sudden, but shortly, the girl was offered to go.. And as they left, Cody considered it none of his business.. Until he heard words come from that lighthearted voice asking a question. A trivial question.. Just before the door would close. "Have you heard anything from Winters yet?"Cody's brow arched.. What would they want with Winters..? Especially Frenchie.. This piqued his interest, as he proceeded to grab his bag, and without any interest in anything else, proceeded to follow them out of the store without making a scene.. .. Stepping on that crumpled ball of paper he'd thrown on the floor earlier, while doing so.. Slowly following behind them as they walked, Cody would wait for Frenchie to make his response. Perhaps he could find out more, otherwise.. "Quite honestly, I've been looking for him since I got here."So, he's been looking.. A concerned look peered upon his face, he would wonder why people who'd left the man they once followed would want to see him again.. It didn't make sense. "He needs to be informed of the current situation...unless that is he's been consulted prior to my arrival."Oh?.. That phrase made everything even more distraught to Cody as of now. Nobody could really consult Winters to do.. Well.. Anything, really. So now, he had to know. ".. If I were Winters, I wouldn't want to see your face right now, Frenchie. You might be looking for him.." He called out to the walking pair. If anyone knew anything about the so called "Current situation." ".. But he's not looking for you."It was Cody. Considering he'd watched it all fall through. "Long time, no see. Prick." A wry smile on his face. He glanced toward the lady.. It was harmful to be rude to someone that you didn't know all that well, after all. But she looked.. So awfully familiar.. It was her face. Huh.. He'd remember perhaps later.

Gabriel turned about revealing one side of his face to the new comer. It was the same boy from the pharmacy. The one who had obviouly needed some medication for the things that were coming out of his mouth. Gabriel cocked a brow silently studying the figure with utmost curiousity. Setting aside his first thought of 'Oh it's just some paranoid drug addicted teen spouting trash to pick a fight' Gabriel thought upon second views. What did the boy know about "Unfettered" any way? His glance narrowed, thats right he went in with the Militia to free the students from the correctional facility.
"Hmmm, Greetings to you as well... I'd suppose you know where he may be then considering your blatent words." Gabriel mouthed back in calm retalition as the edge of his voice prepared threatening heat.
If things came down to a fight Gabriel would not faulter, but then again he was sure Emily would not side with him. And was he ready to take her on anyway? Did he want to? Emerald hues narrowed as he loosened up a tad stll sizing the boy up. They caught the papers in his hand but didn't bring an attention to them he was curious however. They looked riffled through as if he'd been looking through them quite a while. Thus drawing more interest.
"I'm curious though... have you been doing a bit of searching yourself?" Gabriel gave a cocky grin, it was merely a bluff but then again most of his tactics were based on deception.

"Quite honestly, I've been looking for him since I got here." So he had been looking for him too, huh? Why, though? Emily hadn't really seen Gabriel in action working for Winters, so she more or less had some reservations about him.
Well, not some - but rather, a lot. A whole lot in fact.
"He needs to be informed of the current situation...unless that is he's been consulted prior to my arrival."
Emily's eyebrow twitched, as she tried her very best to maintain that smile of hers. What situation was he talking about? About what happened on 42? Her bizarre, and albeit shocking revelation that day about her own mental monsters - or at least a part of them?
".. If I were Winters, I wouldn't want to see your face right now, Frenchie. You might be looking for him... But he's not looking for you." Emily stopped walking and looked towards the direction of the voice to see a familiar person whom she couldn't name at the moment. In truth, the two have already previously met at a coffee shop - and it wasn't fortunate that Emily was stricken with a manic attack, so one can't really expect her to remember much about Cody at all. But he was, for the record, familiar. "Long time, no see. Prick."
"Hmmm, Greetings to you as well... I'd suppose you know where he may be then considering your blatent words."
Ah, more tension.
"I'm curious though... have you been doing a bit of searching yourself?"
Emily folded her arms above her chest, her eyes of garnet focusing on the scene before her - watching and keeping herself alert for anything that may cause a fight.
Right now, she wasn't in the mood, really.

(Apologies for the slowness, I'm typing with one hand so.. Yeah.)
"Hmmm, Greetings to you as well... I'd suppose you know where he may be then considering your blatent words."
Charming, as always. But that really didn't phase him. He dealt with people who were moreso slime than anything else really. That annoyed him, but.. He wasn't ready to show it. Besides, what reason would he have to go after Winters? None, whatsoever.. At least, for the time being. But the fact of the matter was.. Well.. That would be saved for a different day.
"I'm curious though... have you been doing a bit of searching yourself?"
Cody let the left side of his mouth curl upwards, in what seemed to be a lengthy laugh. With that, he looked over to the left slightly, and with both of his hands, lifted them up in a bit of a shrug. Looking as if he was weighing the options.
"Maybe I have.. And maybe I haven't."
People were always looking for something to push across. And in Cody's history.. It was there, haunting him.. It was always there, and always would be there.
With that his eyes would turn towards Frenchie again, putting his hands back down, but curling them into fists in the meatime. That heavy coat on him as heavy as ever, but there was a difference.
"That all depends on your attitude there, Frenchie. You certainly aren't anything special, so why should I tell you anything. Hm?"
He'd put his foot backwards a step. More in a relaxed position. Those handcuffs jingling in the front of his pockets. He'd almost laugh.
"Besides, if I remember correctly.. You're one of the people who either buggered off, or went missing voluntarily.. Now.. I'm sure there's a few people that he'll forgive. But as far as I know.."
He'd let him figure the rest out.
=D

Gabriel stared at him quite confidantly recieving the answer he'd required from him. In that same moment all hostilities from Gabriel ceased as his body frame reverted to it's calm stance. Confident and sure of how the rest would turn out.
"You've given me the answer I needed then." Gabriel returned a smile quite assured.
"You don't know where he is either, seems we're all in the same boat." Gabriel said turning away and beginning to walk once more down the very road he began that day half expecting them to follow but not dependant on them.

Beep, Beep, Beep... Text Message To Cody Travers:

...
Emily, for the record - remembered herself telling "Unfettered" of the need for her to move, albeit unsure at that time if she would be gone temporarily or otherwise. But still, informed him. She knew nothing more about "Unfettered"'s whereabouts after she left to the point where it scared her so much when she learned about 259 having gone through an earthquake and all.
There were just many, many things she wanted to ask him.
And even now, that Emily had someone whom she knew she loved with all her heart - there was still a part of her that hasn't moved on from Mr. Winters. Even if she knew that at this point there was absolutely no turning back - or at least, she hoped there was no turning back.
She wasn't even sure if she was prepared to face "Jon" at this point, considering the things that had happened over the past few months. There was slight uneasiness at the mention of him, as she looked up to the young man as a leader, and at times, even something more. There was still much confusion on her part, but it is only now that she had been able to remember these things due to her preoccupation with the young Hikari.
Then she heard a beep. Emily quickly traced where the sound came from, and figured it was the blonde's.
"... Yours?" She said, much rather not talking about "Unfettered" for the time being, at least for her own sake.

"You've given me the answer I needed then."
"You don't know where he is either, seems we're all in the same boat."
And with that, he watched the Frenchie take off down the street, turning his back on both Cody.. And the black haired girl.
.. Pompous prick.
With that, he could only look at the girl who was before him. For only a few moments it would last though, before a sudden beeping noise would interrupt his thought process, he'd look down towards his jeans pocket.
.. It was his cellphone.
"... Yours?"
He nodded slowly, as he slipped the phone out of his pocket, opening it to slowly scroll down the message.
He chuckled to himself, as he closed his phone back up.
"Speak of the devil.." He laughed quietly. ".. Too bad. Maybe if Frenchie had stuck around a little while longer, he would have found out as well."
Slipping the phone back into his pocket, he looked back at the girl.
".. You said you were looking for Winters too.. Yes?"
He paused for a moment.
".. He's not around, right now. Taken a bit of a leave, as it were.. However. He's still around.."
He.. Wasn't really sure if he should be saying some of this but..
".. If.. You want me to give a message to him.. Or something.. Or set up a meeting.. Or.."
He didn't know what to suggest at the moment, nor did he know how to handle the situation. All he knew now was that he had a job to do.. And he needed to get it done.

Gabriel strode off heavy footing to his steps as if the weight of the world was bearing down. Dispite how over the years things had changed so much he was still the vulnerable little boy left in front of the growing pyre of his family's murder. The were gone and as a result Gabriel had lived his life, living up to what they would have expected of him standing up, stepping out into the fray defending the weak and helpless leaving himself vulnerable to the controversy's.
Jonathan Winters knew that. The real Jonathan Winters, no mask of a leader "Unfettered" but the man behind it all. In the heart there lie a single path, redemption for our sins. Gabriel had done horrible things and as he'd expected he'd yet to pay for them, even in the best intentions he had to suffer or an eternity before the hammer was to fall.
Death once. In those cells, behind the burden and heavy falls of the whip at his back. Two. At the hands of Michael Cypren. Three. Beneath the influence of Reven, torn apart by the beast Deta. Four. Saving her life, saving his, and then a blast. Gabriel's nine lives were growing short and there was still much to be done. A world to be changed.

Emily glanced at Gabriel as he left. Nah, might as well not follow him. I mean, what's the point? Not like he had any idea where "Unfettered" was, nor were they on good terms with each other.
"Speak of the devil.." Emily's eyes opened wide, her heart skipping a beat. Speak of the devil? Was that "Unfettered"? ".. Too bad. Maybe if Frenchie had stuck around a little while longer, he would have found out as well."
"Um!?" She said, "Speak of the devil? Are you talking about "Unfettered"? You have contact with him?" Emily then caught herself about to grab the taller man's shoulders - only to realize, she was being too eager.
".. You said you were looking for Winters too.. Yes?"
There was only one answer. "Yes."
".. He's not around, right now. Taken a bit of a leave, as it were.. However. He's still around.."
Emily heaved a heavy sigh as she slumped to the floor, her hand clutching on her heart. All these months she had been worrying about the teenage German.
".. If.. You want me to give a message to him.. Or something.. Or set up a meeting.. Or.."
"... I'd... just like to know how he is, that would be good enough for me." She said, "Damn that guy, getting me all worried like this..."

He sighed, there was much to be done, and things to be organized. Not much to discuss on that matter. Thing is, Cody had better things to be doing, other than chaparoning these followers to Winters' doorstep.. But, whatever he asked.. It was all for a good cause anyway.
.. Disregard that last statement.. Nothing really better to do.
Still, the girl before him.. She had.. An interesting way to show her interest in this particular case. An eager look about her eye.
"Speak of the devil? Are you talking about "Unfettered"? You have contact with him?"
He looked in her eyes, they were ones of far eager.. Something that goes there. Not too sure what that is yet. However, he would nod yes. In acceptance to her question anyway.
"... I'd... just like to know how he is, that would be good enough for me."
...
"Damn that guy, getting me all worried like this..."
Cody watched as she slumped to the floor. He rolled is eyes as he looked off to the side of the road.. Thinking to himself. He felt bad for her, the young lady. Winters' probably had near given her a heart attack in the past.. But this..
He sighed, Cody wished he had someone worry about him like that.
Regardless, he shrugged.. Maybe it was for the best that nobody cared..
.. Save more money that way.
".. Yeah, he's okay. As far as I know, anyway." To give her a small answer.
With that, he put his hands into his jeans pockets, and breathed for a moment.
"Alright, listen. I don't really like Frenchie, there.. S' why I didn't say anything in the first place.. But, he's usually around his joint if you want to visit." With that, he took out his cell phone, looking at the time..
.. It was getting late..
"Uh, look.. I.. Gotta get going.. He's calling me right now.."
D'OH!

".. Yeah, he's okay. As far as I know, anyway." Emily looked up at the young boy, a honest smile plastered onto her face. That was the best news she'd heard about the german the past few months, and she was happy for that. Nothing else could make her this at peace, not even Ryuu. Which is ironic, considering that he's her actual boyfriend.
It seemed as if Emily had not moved on despite her greatest efforts.
"Alright, listen. I don't really like Frenchie, there.. S' why I didn't say anything in the first place.. But, he's usually around his joint if you want to visit."
"He's... at the restaurant?"
The question is, would "Unfettered" want to see her? Would he still consider her an ally if not a comrade? His first loyal member? His Elite Guard?
There was this uncertainty in Emily's heart that she wasn't sure how to deal with.
"Uh, look.. I.. Gotta get going.. He's calling me right now.."
Before He would even move, Emily's warm hands would grab this man's arm, looking up to him. "... If... it is something I could help him with, ...can I come with you?" She pleaded.
She wanted to see him.
Though, she could understand if he had business to attend to.

What was Cody roping himself into? Or was he just so dense that he can't read any girl's signals for any pickled reason whatsoever. It was tiem for him to get going.. But, this was obviously holding him up, big time.
It really wasn't his place to judge other people right now.. Well, he wasn't up for judging anyone at all. He was cool with just being himself.
Albeit, being himsel had it's faults.. But whatever..
"He's... at the restaurant?"
He sighed, once more nodding with her question. Giving her that answer. But it wasn't entirely true.. He wasn't there at the moment. So it was a bit of a lie, if we were getting technical.
But he really had to leave..
He didn't want to be late.
But as he went to leave, a sudden warm touch ran up his arm.
"... If... it is something I could help him with, ...can I come with you?"
He looked back at the girl, giving her a once over. Scanning her up and down. She had a hopefuly glimmer in her eye..
How could he say no?
He sighed.
".. Alright. There's something you can do, I suppose. If not.. Well then, I guess I'll just have to find something." He mentioned, looking back ahead.
"I'm sure he won't mind an extra visitor."

".. Alright. There's something you can do, I suppose. If not.. Well then, I guess I'll just have to find something. I'm sure he won't mind an extra visitor."
Emily was elated deep in her heart but preferred much rather to not let her emotions seep through completely for fear of overreacting. This was actually a very interesting reaction from someone who already had a "significant other", especially someone who considered herself a very loyal young lady.
It could be supposed that her loyalty and love never really faded, no matter how much she had tried.
Emily stood up and nodded, and decided to follow the boy to wherever he led her to. Sure he was likely to pull her towards the restaurant, but since this guy had contact with Unfettered it would be best to let him lead.
After all, she was all but an unexpected guest.
