Someone is not happy

A day later, in the lab beneath the castle, Badcop is destroying one of labs. On the floor lie 2 dead scientists with their throats slit "USELESS. USELESS ALL OF YOU! What is the point of hiring the smartest minds if they can't do shit?!?" He yells angrily as throws a computer against the wall.
A tall man with black what looks to be greasy hair, bags under his eyes, and exotic earrings walks in with a lab coat "Gali. You have an event later tonight. A meeting with the prime minister in England" He says holding out a clipboard.
"What is it this time? Is he asking for more money?" Badcop/Gali says when he eventually calms down, flipping through the papers.
"It seems so. More money for infrastructure for the recently destroyed buildings in London. After the.. horrible horrible earthquake..." He grins.
"Good to know the machine worked" Implying he may have had something to do with the earthquake "Anything else Alister?"
"Lux. Is calling for a meeting. Says it's... urgent" Alister says in a rather bored tone.
"Well then. You and I both know he hates our guts. Let's see what he has to say" Gali passes the clipboard back to Alister and they leave the destroyed room.
"Clean this up" Gali calls out to the other scientists as others rush in to clean and rebuild the room.. and burn the bodies.
Upstairs, past the main hall to the left is a large library with many tables. On one of them sits a man, with black unruly hair and dark chocolate brown eyes. He sits with his head in his hands as he scours over the many papers that fill the table and 2 laptops sat upon it. Gali and Alister walk into the room.
"Lux. You better not be wasting my time" He says taking a seat across from him, as Alister stays standing leaning on one of the other tables
"According to you I always waste your time Gali" He responds in a dry voice, typing away at one of the laptops
"I am your father. This is my household. Treat me with respect or get out" Gali demands. Looking like he wants to kill someone.
Lux sighs and turns one of the laptops around. It shows a simple house with a nice garden of Tulips "We found her" He says seriously.
He was about to respond until he notices the Tulips "..When?"
"3 days ago. The satellite finally caught something. Gabriel has been sent there, watching the house for her movements and he confirms that she's there. I will go out myself and join Gabriel to bring her home-"
"No" Gali says rubbing his chin "I will go with you. Make it.. A family reunion. After all it has been quite some time since I have seen your mother. If all of us are there, it will be easier to convince her to take her home"
"Gabriel and I can do it just fine-"
"And I already stated that I will be coming with you. Prep the plane" He says to one of the guards.
"Already done. Just thought to come here and tell you, just so you don't think another family member ran away. We're leaving now" He says shutting the laptops and shoving them into his bags, leaving the papers scattered on the table. He leaves without waiting for a comment.
"I can see why you chose Gabriel as the heir. Not him" Alister makes a comment as he walks back behind Gali.
"Lux, while the eldest, doesn't have the family business in mind. He only cares about keeping us safe, even if it means tearing up or killing everyone. Gabriel on the other hand. While more soft-hearted has the leadership needed to rule over the world... and the passion to finish what I have started" He says as he takes a picture off the table. Staring at it. It shows a family of 4, 2 boys, one with blue eyes, one with brown eyes, and the mother and father smiling at the camera.
"Soon the Queen will return home. Which will raise much morale among the men to hunt down Clelia further. After all... She is the biggest threat to your family"
"I will kill her. Her and her dogs who think they can take my territories and my world" He says standing as he makes his play to the plane "Keep track of Clelia. I should be home before the week ends" He states.
"Yes My Lord" Alister says with a small bow.
On the plane, Lux has a laptop out and seems to be face-timing Gabriel "How is she..?"
"She seems well. Though she's working at a shitty diner. 12-9 shift, 5 days a week. Disgusting" Gabriel hisses out "I can't wait to bring her home"
"Yes.. Also to get an explanation as to why she left us in the first place" Lux says angrily as Gali gets on the plane sitting across from him. Lux just stares at him and looks away.
"What if she doesn't want to come home? We can't exactly force her to come"
"And who says we can't" Gali chimes in with a glass of Scotch "It looks like she hasn't been caring for herself, and working herself to the bone it is our job as her family to take care of her. Even if she refuses. I'm sure she won't say no when she sees her two sons that she abandoned" He swirls his glass.
"Right... Well. Does it look like she does babysitting in the mornings? Not too sure, but she's seen with a little girl, looks to be 6? That or... She is a sibling that was hidden from us." Gabriel responds.
"Or adopted to forget about us" He mumbles angrily "Really why do you have to think of terrible things all the time Lux?" Gabriel sighs.
"It's been 8 years since we've seen her! She's been evading all of our men, all the cameras! She's getting help from somewhere and it's not us!" Lux hisses out.
"Calm down. We will talk more about this when we meet. Where is she located?" Gali asks taking a sip from his drink.
"New Zealand. Home of the Maori culture and their manuka honey.. and earthquakes" Gabriel says "Hell of a place to stay"
"We'll meet you at your location. Sit tight and stay out of sight" Gali then places his glass on the table and looks through some papers.
"Yes, Father" And the call is disconnected.
"I can feel you glaring at me. What is it?" Gali looks up to Lux.
"You never gave us a reason as to why she would leave"
"I have. You just won't accept it. Maybe you will once you hear it from your mother's mouth"
Lux stays quiet and doesn't attempt to engage in small talk for the rest of the flyover
"Get some rest. We'll be there at their night" Gali says as he stands and walks to the cockpit.
Lux only sighs as he looks out the window.. He can't wait to see his mother.
