You wake up back at your office.

Lucy:"you're awake!"

You stand up and grab your things.

Lucy:"are you okay?"

You:"I'm fine."

You put on your jacket and holster your revolver. You walk over to Weiss and began to pet her on the head.

You:"sorry I've neglected you for a while. It seems Lucy kept you fed."

Weiss: she began to bark out of excitement. She seems happy that you're alive.

You start walking to the door and Lucy grabs your shoulder as you got closer to the door.

Lucy:"what's going on? You're acting different."

You:"I'm not. I'm acting like I should've been."

You open the door and walk to your car. Lucy began to follow you.

Lucy:"where are you going?!"

You:"paying a visit to an old friend."

You get into your car and drive off.

Volition: where are you going?

You: I'm going to see Marcus. He was the guy that tried to kill me. Maybe he can tell me where my journal is being taken to.

Volition: you don't need your journal for the case.

You: this is more than just the case. I'm going to leak this. I'm going to show this city what their corporate overlords are doing to us.

Volition: it seems that actually fixed you.

You: thanks for the wakeup call.

Volition: being a paragon for justice does feel good.

You: it does. I want to help this city. Even if I die trying. Right my personal wrongs.

You stop at an apartment complex and step out of your car. You walk inside and make your way to the third floor of the building. You stop at a door and knock on it.

Door: You could hear a voice on the other side. "Password!"

You:"you guys never had a password before."

Door: they went silent for a moment. "smart ass." You can hear the sound of the door opening.

You: let's do this.

You reach for your revolver as the door opens. Everyone inside immediately began to freak out as they saw you.

Perception: there's 5 people. 4 men and 1 woman. The girl looks like she won't be a threat.

Half-light: draw your gun.

You draw your revolver and point it at the people sitting at a poker table. You walk inside and sit down in an empty chair.

You(savior faire):"hello Marcus."

Marcus: he's looking at you in pure shock. "I thought you were dead? Double dead. Smasher killed you."

You:"I always seem to stay alive huh?"

Marcus: you can see fear on his face and he struggled to talk.

You:"I don't want revenge. I just wanted to talk."

Marcus:"you don't need a gun to do that."

You(half-light):"I don't trust you all enough to let that happen. And I know you don't have the balls to try and kill me."
