 Penny sat on a medical bed inside pietro's bad, she sits down in silence with a saddened expression planted on her face. Strand stood with his arms crossed in the corner as he looked at penny with a disappointed expression, it was probably the first time he ever saw the carrot top sad. He walked up to her and sat next to placing a hand on her shoulder as he sighed to himself. The chaos of the night before had ironwood setting up curfew for mantle citizens trying to avoid another disaster that could damage the reputation of atlas even further, the people of mantle weren't taking it well especially Robyn hill and her huntress team. In recent events, the team had set up a heists to take a supply transports from the mantle streets which worked flawlessly much to ironwood's displeasure, which he expressed to the huntsman present in his office

Ironwood: This is the WORST case scenario! More people are dead! Penny's been framed and somehow JACQUES SCHNEE is sitting on the COUNCIL!

Clover steps up in front of everyone

Clover: This is the second shipment for amity that they've hit today... Seems like election night was the last straw for robyn into going from hometown hero to full on vigilante.

Strand leans on the wall with his usual smug expression, although for once he was serious, a lot of what transpired on election night were on things strand took personally, specifically the part where an innocent girl was framed.

Strand: Could you blame her... We're not doing much to help, and when we appear to be trying to get along, shit hits the fan and our people are the face of it...

Ironwood: Who's side are you on!? You didn't do much to prevent the attack, your here to recognize who Salem has working for her!

Strand: Well I'm sorry "Sir" but I'm not exactly updated in what salem was supposed to be doing! From what I had heard before turning into a meat skewer was that their next target was vacuo... Now it seems like we're uncharted territory...

Ironwood: Things couldn't possibly be worse... Robyn had our suppliers in mantle halt their distribution... Nigel is backing Jacques in his ventures completely cutting us off from their supplies too... This means that the amity project is completely at a halt

Keith: There's gotta be someone way we could finish the tower...

Ruby: Yeah isn't their any other ways to get supplies?

Alaska looks around the room, he knew what was going through ironwood's head and it wasn't pretty, martial law was the next step in terms of stopping their roadblocks and actually getting things moving, he didn't even what the words to be thrown around. He thought about his conversation with his father and what he was hiding in terms of his sudden absence at the fall of beacon, he knew one thing it wasn't good and it certainly wasn't legal. He put his arms behind his back and he stepped forward to speak.

Alaska: Sir if I may speak...

Ironwood pinches the bridge of his nose at the current situation unfolding around him, he slowly shakes his head as he puts both his hands on his desk and bows his head.

Alaska: I did some investigating on my father, more specifically his withdraw from vale when it was attacked... He's hiding something and it's safe to assume that it isn't anything legal... If I can gather evidence against them and make a case, we can have him arrested and I'll have full control of the company and we'll have nearly unlimited resources and it allows us to put some even more serious dirt on jacque schnee's name possibly having his position revoked from the council

Ironwood: That is a good plan but it isn't certain, we have to focus on actually getting everything under control...

Keith: You'd be a dictator...
