“Easy there, tiger!” Gab said in a calm voice, “I'm not blaming him. He could've been harder on Estelle, but he held back—I saw it. And let's face it, there were things | could've done better back in the day. He's got every right to be mad at me!” Xavier's eyes darkened further. From the moment he set foot in Citadel, he had been retracing Raiden’s steps, piecing together his whereabouts. Before even arriving in Zion, he was almost certain that Raiden was Wolf. After all, they had fought side by side for seven years—Xavier knew him better than Gab did. He had been furious when he left, unable to fathom why Wolf would side with the Triceratops and stand against Gab. Especially after reaching the rooftop and witnessing Wolf about to take Estelle down, he had nearly lost his mind! Thinking back, if he hadn't been so hot-headed, perhaps their reunion after seven years wouldn't have been so rushed and confrontational. Maybe Wolf wouldn't have died. After everything he'd been through to survive, it shouldn't have ended this way. “Maybe it was Wolf's fate. Don’t dwell on it,” Gab said, “You need to heal up and head back home.” “What about you?” Xavier asked. “No missions for now. | might just head back with you guys,” Gab replied. He had spent so few days at hover the years, and it had been such a long tsince he last checked in with his grandfather. It was tto pay the old man a visit. “Good!” Xavier nodded firmly, “Letknow when Estelle wakes up.” “Will do.” Cnoon, Estelle still hadn't woken up. Jonathan, who hadn’t eaten or rested, kept vigil by her bedside, but something felt off. He stood up to get a doctor. As he opened the door, he found Lambert standing outside. Looking into the room at Estelle, Lambert said gravely, “You might try waking her up. She needs someone to call her back.” Jonathan's expression shifted slightly and asked, “What do you mean?” With a furrowed brow and a face full of regret, Lambert confessed, “I did something really stupid before.” He recounted how he had betrayed Estelle, and how Raiden had taken her for experimentation. Before he could finish, Jonathan punched him hard in the face. Lambert staggered back but made no move to retaliate or dodge. Wiping the blood from his lip, he looked up at the furious man and said, “I know | messed up. Hitif it makes you feel better.” Jonathan's second punch cswiftly. Lambert was sent tumbling onto the living room sofa with a loud crash, knocking over the coffee table in the process. Everyone stood up in shock. As Jonathan's anger blazed, they rushed to restrain him. “Jonah, what's going on?” Josiah tried to grab his arm. Jonathan shook off Josiah with a swift motion and pulled out his gun, aiming it squarely at Lambert. His eyes were filled with a dark fury as he glared at Lambert and pulled the trigger. “Jonathan!” Visit Dramasto read full content.
