Flesh of My Blood-Chp177

[a few hours later, Terry n Grimm showed up]

Grimm: [knocked the door, whispered] Brad? Wander? U guys in there?

Wander: (nod) We are.

Grimm: [enters quietly with Terry n some food]

Hater: [smells the food n groaned, feeling sick]

Wander: (rubbed Hater's back)

Terry: Is he still not doing so good? :(

Brad: The usual morning sickness n all tht. He also had a scuffle with ur dad

Grimm: Huh? W-Wat did my dad do?

Wander: Asked about...his mother...

Terry: :O

Grimm: Oh no... :(

Hater: It's OK [turned n let them see his face] It's my bad... I shouldn't hv asked...

Wander: :(

Grimm: Oh Hater... [comes to him n sat next to him, caressing his hurt face]

Terry: ;(

[everyone was silent, feeling Hater's pain n sadness]

Wander: ... (got up and headed for the room he and Brad were hiding in)

Brad: [sees him leave] W-Wander... [followed behind him]

Hater: [sees him leave n buried his face in the pillows, sobbing] ;(

Wander: (stepped into the other room) ... What, Brad? (sensed the other man followed him)

Brad: Wander, I know ur upset, bt pls don't try to do anything brash... [reached over to put his hand on his shoulder bt got smacked away]

Wander: He needs to be taken down...for good.. Hater's been through enough as it is... (makes his hands fists) You're suggesting that we just do nothing, is THAT it??

Brad: Yes! Atm we CAN'T do anything! Hv u heard wat Grimm has told us? Fury has the manpower, the influence, the authority. We're just two ppl! U wanna get urself killed before u can do anything? U go out like this n we r all doomed to fail, n Hater will be a prisoner here forever. Do u want that?!

Wander: You'd be feeling the same way if it was ME in his position, you wouldn't just sit around!

Brad: Which is why I'm here to keep ur head level instead of barging into this without a plan. I know ur upset, I feel terrible too seeing Boney like this. U think I want him to suffer like this as well? Wat we need is a plan! The tablet I want from Grimm is the plan!

Wander: ... (turns away) Just let me be for a bit...

Brad: [sighed n gently patted Wander's shoulder without saying a word before returning to Hater's room]

Hater: [had his head on Grimm's lap, with Grimm stroking his head to comfort him]

Terry: (sees Brad) Is everything okay...?

Brad: Yeah, he just needs to cool off a little. So, uh, how long does ur species' pregnancy last anyways?

Terry: (think) About 4 to 6 months at least... :(

Brad: Oi vey... So wat do u wanna do? We're definitely taking dwn Fury, no doubt abt it. Bt once we do, wat do u wanna do with the baby? Do u want to let him keep it or get rid of it?

Grimm: It's up to u, Terry. It's mainly ur child. N up to u, Hater, since ur carrying it

Terry: ... (turns to Grimm) How would you feel if I'd rather adopt?

Grimm: I'm good either way, however u want to hv a child. Bt r u sure u want Hater to get rid of the child? It's still urs, ur blood n all...

Terry: From what I can tell, he doesn't want the child. I don't want it being a burden on both him and me.

Hater: I... I don't... Bt... I can't bring myself to kill a child either... It's not the baby's fault...

Terry: ...This is just a thought, but... once the child is born, we can...have someone else adopt that child?

Grimm: R u sure? But it's ur child. I'd accept it either way. R u willing to let someone else take ur child tht u've always wanted to give me?

Terry: ...I'm fine with this, really...

Grimm: Then I'll adopt it. I'll take it as my own n I'll accept it. Bcoz the child belongs to u.

Hater: R u sure ur OK with tht, Grimm?

Grimm: The child may not be of my direct blood, bt it's from u, n ur my brother, my blood. I wouldn't hv it any other way

Terry: ... (hugs Grimm) :)

Hater: :) [nuzzled his lap]

Grimm: [hugged Terry with one arm n stroke Hater's head with his free hand]

Terry: Love you, Grimmy... (heart)

Grimm: Love u too [kissed Terry]

Brad: [cleared his throat] Not to break up this happy atmosphere bt... Uh... Hv u gotten me the tablet I request?

Grimm: Oh, right. Here it is [release Terry n dug into his robe to take out the tablet n handed it to the knight]

Terry: You've got a plan?

Brad: Yeah. It involves calling a few third parties

Grimm: The tablet is on a secure extraweb line, so u don't hv to worry abt my dad finding out abt it

Brad: Cool

Terry: Third parties? Like who?

Hater: :) I think I know who u mean

Brad: Yup. Hold up, lemme go get that furball [goes to the nxt room]

Wander: (had been pacing around muttering to himself)

Brad: [peeked in] Psst! I got the tablet. Come n help me out

Wander: (looked up and came to him) We've got a plan?

Brad: Yup, n I need ur help, coz I need access to ur computer. U know, security password n stuff

Wander: (nod)
