...

After the whole mission gone to sh*t. Ghost returned to the Safehouse, while being accompanied by the Girl "Anna". In the Safehouse, Ange reprimands Ghost for his actions with actions.

Ange :Ghost...

Ghost :(looks away innocently)...

Ange :Ghooosst...

Ghost :What?

Ange :Don't "what" me, Ghost. You know what you've did.

Ghost :Come on. The situation wasn't that bad.

Ange :"That bad"? You clearly realized, you almost destroyed the whole buiding, while causing chaos around half of the town, not to mention with the police arriving at the scene. (sigh) Luckily for you, Miss Gilda Ulrich was kind for her to cover up, as a gas leak or something else.

Ghost :Hehe... The Pity Side of me got the best of me, okay? I'm not that emotionless like a machine, alright? (to the Dolls) No offence.

Renate :I wouldn't mind.

Ange (disappointed) :(sigh)... I thought your assignment would have gone smoothly, but I expected something else. Not to mention... You brought a little girl into our Safehouse?!

Ghost :Hey, I can't just leave a little girl there, alone. They might come back for her and take her back. Which is no good at all.

Ange :Even so. It would also be a problem for us, if they ever decided to look for her, and might follow her back to this Safehouse's location.

Ghost :Yeah. But any traces of us are gone, mostly...

Ange :(sighs again)...

Ghost :And, Ange. It's not just the Target I was dealing with. There were Kids back there, and they used them as a human shield against me.

Ange :Oh no. That's gonna be an issue.

Ghost :But don't worry. I'll find a way to get the Target and the Kids. Without a doubt.

Ange :I am doubting you already.

Ghost :Oh please. Don't be so negative with me, Ange. You know what i'm capable of.

Ange :(staring)...

Ghost :(stares back)... So what do we do with her?

Ange :"What do we do with her?" It's your responsibility, you should take care of her.

Ghost :What? Oh...come on, I'm not gonna babysit another kid again.

Ange :Then deal with it. (thinks) Hm... Or...we could send her to an Orphanage, not the previous one we visited, since they transferred all the children there to a different orphanage. So she might fit with the kids there.

Ghost :Hm... (looks at Anna, back to Ange) That could be a good idea...

Anna :Mister. (Tugs on Ghost's Shirt)

Ghost :Hm?

Anna :My...My Sister.

Ghost :Your Sister? (remembers) Oh your Sister, what's your Sister's name?

Anna :Lina. Yes, she was in the van. Please, can you help me find her?

Ghost :Oh, uh... (thinks of an idea) Wait! Ange, I might still be able to get my Target back.
