Luka gasped, filling his lungs with air. He rose as his vision blurred and caught a glimpse of the hole in the wall.
"What the h..." Luka started, cutting himself off.
He got up, shaking his head and continued to the weapons room. He entered cautiously, not knowing what or who he would find.
"Blaster or sword?" Reagan asked. Luka didn't know who she was talking too. He crept across the wall so he wouldn't be noticed. Paying no attention to the box sitting in front of him, he listened in on the conversation.
"Uhh I'm going to use my powers but blaster, duh." stated a familiar voice. Luka squinted, straining his eyes to zoom in on whoever she was talking too. He didn't see the box and tripped over it, causing a ruckus.
"Luka?" Reagan asked. Luka jumped up, making his presence clear.
"Yes?" Luka asked- walking over to her.
The mysterious figure turned around.
"Grainger!" Luka shouted giving a disgusted look to his dear brother.
"Yes?" Grainger wondered.
"What are you still doing here? I thought I told you to leave!" Luka continued.
"Luka, he has fixed his mistakes and we are going to find a way to bring Sofia back. We are preparing for the war threat currently, then we are going to the hospital to get Mackenzie and mother." Reagan lied.
"Him? Grainger? Bring back the dead? Hahahah, very funny. He couldn't possible do that, only such powers are granted to gods and he isn't even a demigod." Luka taunted. Grainger crossed his arms.
"If I can do it once, I can do it again!" Grainger fired back.
"No, you got lucky." Luka tormented.
"There is no such thing." Grainger argued.
"Maybe not for you, I mean look at your life. Abandoned at the age of six because mother didn't love you. She left you to take over the galaxy, I wonder how it feels to be forgotten. Not to mention murdering your wife because you can't control your emotions. Heck, you even blew up Rouge. Go to Hell!" Luka scolded.
"Do not... bring up my past." Grainger threatened in a deep voice.
"Oh and what are you going to do? Your just a liar." Luka sneered.
"Everyone is a liar, sometimes a lie is the best truth." Grainger confessed.
"Now you are going to be an inspiration? Give up Grainger, you are nothing more than a failed assassin that turned to the darkness because you are unstable." Luka yelled.
"Boys! Stop! Look what you are doing! We just got the family back together and you are going to destroy it again. This is how we got here the first time. Luka, you need to cool it. I understand that you might not be as forgiving as me or the others but that doesn't give you the right to hit Grainger and yell at everyone all the time." Reagan interrupted.
"Why are you protecting him? Get you head out of the clouds and realize that we are housing a criminal and you are going to abide by this crap!" Luka growled.
"He is my brother! How dare you question my intentions and ethics!" Reagan barked.
"I am your brother too!" Luka mentioned.
"A real brother would put aside his petty opinion and look at the bigger picture, the greater good. He would also be supportive of his brother no matter what he believes because they are family and someday, they will only have each other." Reagan scoffed.
