Drake stepped forward for the first since WR had known them looking more Leader than punk.
"First of all, I get your frustration and anger but if you want to work with me, then fucking know the time and place to use it. I wasn't asking to insult you, I was asking because with or without you I will be tearing down that organization. I've got people I know for certain I will be recruiting. And originally, you weren't one of them. Not because I don't trust you nor think you aren't useful but because I didn't feel it was right to include you into my fight. So, if you don't want to be involved you don't have to be. But the more I tell the more risk you are in. So, if you're going to stand by and live your life, now is the time to jump ship. But if you are staying and you are helping then know RIGHT now. Your attitude has no business in this room. Got it?"
He would say as he walked to the door and opened it.
"Thats the arrangement take it, or leave your choice."

WR opened their mouth to contest, but stopped any words from coming out. They crossed their arms over their chest and took a deep breath, tapping their fingers. It was very difficult for WR to set aside their pride, but it was something they were willing to do to for the greater good.
This battle was quickly turning into a war, and it was theirs to fight, no matter the risk, no matter the consequence.
"Fine. Sorry. Please continue."

Drake nodded and closed the door.
"I gave Rebel my fathers mask to hide her identity, and I've given a new name to go by so that she can attempt to recruit and find answers for us."
He would look at WR.
"Also, this goes without saying. Gidget doesn't hear word one about this. We aren't involving her."

WR nodded.
"Right."
The last thing they wanted to do was pull Gremlin into this mess. She was already in enough danger as it was.
"So, who's this Rebel character?"

"The Blue Eyed Ghost as Iskeria called her. She is an orphan from our world that grew up here. She was part of a rival gang that the Droogs Leader, Codename Snake, killed her gang and her family. She is now on a quest for vengeance against the Droogs. I aim to help her destroy them and save those trapped by snake, including Izzy."
He would explain.

WR nodded thoughtfully.
"So, I got a race to go to in a few days. Dog -- er, Izzy, told me I might make friends there. Dunno what that means, but she's either trying to help me or set me up. What do you think?"

"Trust her. I think she has some sort of foresight. She knew how the fight between myself and her companion was going to go, and despite his hold over her she has been helping us form a resistance. My primary goal is to free her from his contract. Rebel assures me that by doing so she could single handedly bring down the entire Droog organization."
He would nod.

"Hmm," WR nodded. Izzy trying to set them up with someone that could help take down the Droogs made... a sort of sense, at least more so now that Drake had explained it some.
"Far as Rebel goes, I need a word with her?"
They tilted their head at him.

"Uh, not that I know of, but if you want to meet her I'll arrange a meeting."
He would offer.

They nodded.
"Sure. I'd like to know who I'm getting involved with."

Drake would nod pulling out his phone and messaging Rebel.
"Alright, meet her at midnight at the coordinates I will send to your phone. Fair warning, she can be a bit moody."
He chuckled to himseld. At that comment!

"Heh. I don't think you have to warn me about moody."
They chuckled.

Drake chuckled.
"Yeah, shes... much more like me from two years ago. And you and I have knocked heads before, just... remember, your both hurting for similar reasons. But she... she hasn't lost her light yet. I've seen it."

“Yeah. I’ll play nice, promise.” They winked at him before walking to the door.
“Hit me if you need anything, yeah? I’ll tell you how the race goes.”
They opened the door and walked outside before holding a finger up and turning around.
“Next time I’ll make sure to come announced. I don’t wanna see your pink fucking undies again.”

"Next time you come over unannounced you'll be lucky if I'm wearing anything."
Good luck with your race.
