Drake would pull out his phone and text the weird number that Iskiera had messaged him from to meet Rebel, hopefully this was how he could get a hold of her... He would ask her to meet him out at an old abandoned building had saw when he was with DJ.

It was a while before he got a response... and all he managed to get was the letter "K."
When he got to building, he'd see a little handwritten note, saying "Roof."
Once he got up there, he would finally find Izzy, just sitting there and staring out over the city, puffing on a cigarette. Her eyes glowed almost as strongly as the cherry of her cigarette, but she didn't turn to look at him. She just sighed.
"You know he's got eyes and ears everywhere, right?"

Drake would go to the roof and shrug.
"Yeah well, you didn't really give me any way to reach you. So, does he have eyes and ears here?"

She gave a shrug of her shoulders, reaching up to tap the side of her head.
"Not unless he's paying attention."

Drake would sigh. Why anyone would agree to that bullshit...
"Right, well, then I guess let's get this done with on the hopes he ain't paying attention right now. Hell, if we're lucky maybe he is dealing with that dumb bitch from the rooftop."
He would say rolling his eyes.
"Alright, I'm gonna just come right out with it."
He looked her in the eyes.
"What deal did you make with him?"

Dog rolled her eyes then. Did he really think it would be that easy?
"He offered me the one thing I couldn't get back. No matter how hard I tried. Thats how he works with people he can't initially con... He figures out that one thing you want, more than anything, and comes up with some fucked off way to prove to you that he can give it to you."
She snickered, giving a shake of her head. There was sadness all across her features, in that moment. It was dumb, and she hated herself for it... that much was obvious. But there was a part of her that still desperately wanted whatever he had offered her.

He sighed.
"Listen. I'm sorry, I know what I'm asking of you is a lot, and possible or not is the only clue I have to save you."
He did know that what he was asking her for was more than most would offer up... but if they were going to have a chance, any kind of real chance... then they needed to know everything.

Dog sighed softly, giving a shake of her head. She stared down at the city just beyond the rooftop, her red eyes shining as she contemplated what he said.
"What is the one thing you would be willing to trade your soul for, Drake?" she asked softly. "I'm sure its not money, or wealth, or fame... or even power. Its something else, right? Something that you can't quite accept that you don't have, anymore."
She obviously didn't expect him to actually answer, as she flicked her still lit cigarette through the air, watching as it fell.
"You aren't going to be able to guess. And I can't exactly tell you outright. You came here to ask questions about me, but we are just going to keep going around, mostly because my cryptic answers won't make much sense to you until... something happens. Instead of wasting what precious time we have here trying to talk about me... why don't we talk about someone else? Someone you are going to find, basically once you walk out of this building."
She turned to look him dead in the eye, then, that same feeling of power nearly overwhelming as she caught his gaze.
"Its easier for us to talk about each other than it is for us to talk about ourselves."

Drake folded his arms and sighed.
"A flower."
He would say with a shrug.
"A flower that means more to me than the world I lost... unfortunately that's where it is, still lost on that world."
He would unfold his arms and step over the ledge which he would lean up against.
"Alright, then what can you tell me about Rat."

"He is looking for his sister."
Dog gave a slight shrug. She let Drake create a bit of distance between them, keeping her attention focused outward.

Drake would pat the ledge next to him as if to invite her over. He wasn't trying to get away from her but he was a creature of comfort and he liked to be as comfortable as he could.
"Alright, and where is she?"

"She was young when they showed up here. She was kidnapped."
Dog took a second before she stood and made her way over to the ledge, standing near Drake. She stared out over the city and sighed.
"We know she hasn't left the city. But he won't let us find her."

Drake would shrug.
"I bet its because he has her stashed somewhere."

"I'm honestly hoping that is whats up. There's another group stealing Meta children, too. Rat has made it his driving goal to figure out which group has his sister."
Dog shrugged slightly and sighed.

"My uncle said he is also working a case for the TSI, something about Meta children being taken... what can you tell me about his sister, I'll have him look for her specifically during his operations."
