HERRERA BUILDING Manhattan
FOR EVERY LIE THERE'S A TRUTH, IT'S PART OF THE YIN AND YANG OF LIFE, AN INEVITABLE CYCLE.
A cycle that can also be destructive, when foundations are built on lies, the downfall is always cataclysmic. Empires have fallen, governments have turned corrupt, betrayed nations point their cannons at each other generating unnecessary warfare and the weight of the dead is something that cannot be fixed with simple forgiveness. And all for a lie, no matter how insignificant it may be, a lie is a lie and always brings consequences. After a white lie, they always follow more and that is where everything built can be snatched with only the truth.
And the saddest part is that this is how a family was formed, based on a lie.
"Are you sure about this?" Alora Stark asked Christian, Kalum leaned against the Jeep Cherokee as the trio glanced up. "I'm sure this could wait, it doesn't have to be now."
Towering over them was the 20-story high Herrera Building, at the very top of the building resided the Prime's loft, home to Christian and Teagan. Alora felt a familiar tug on her heart, a part of her wish to go with Christian just to get the chance to see Teagan again. But she held back, now wasn't the time for visits, everything they did needed to be fast for they didn't know how much time they had to aid Tony on this battle against the Mandarin.
"No, it has to be now. I need to know why." Chris blinked and averted his gaze toward the blonde Stark, he turned to face her while simultaneously fetching out the keys to his car and handing it to her. "Here. Take the car and go to the Avengers Tower, find a computer and plug the USB. Code: 25-28. JARVIS will know what to do."
Kalum frowned, he pushed himself off the car and stood beside Alora, and observed over her shoulder the USB. "What's in it?"
