"So what the hell went down?" Nathan asked.
Izzy shifted in her seat, "We talked about Jaiden mostly, how she escaped and how he and his people didn't really like that. He also offered that we work together and try and find the people that escaped from his compound."
"He tried to get me to work with him too," I stated.
"He tried to get you to get Izzy to work with them?" Eric asked.
"Your words are very confusing," I stated. "But, yes."
"That dude just won't give up," Zaire mumbled.
"You didn't say yes did you?" I asked Izzy.
"Of course not, that pissed him off though, said a bunch of stuff like he was gonna kill us one by one, but I really don't think he will be able to do that." She stated.
"So what are we gonna do then?" Sara asked.
I glanced at her, "We wait and see what happens."
"Or, we can just attack them and get it over with," Nathan stated.
"What if we actually try and work with them?" Eric offered.
Everyone in the room looked at him like he was crazy, "What the fuck?" Dylan asked.
"I'm just saying, do you really think we can handle them if we get into a war?" Eric asked.
"We can handle anyone," I stated, "All we need to do is use the right technique."
Eric laughed, "Bullshit! They would crush us."
"Who's fucking side are you on?" I questioned.
"This one," He stated.
Nathan pushed off the wall, "Doesn't seem like it."
"Guys, I swear to god if you do not stop bickering with each other I will cut all of you from hearing about any more of this stuff!" Izzy yelled.
The room fell into silence as everyone glared at Eric, I would say that I felt bad for the guy, but he said what he said, knowing what our views on the whole situation were.
"So, what's the decided plan?" Zaire asked breaking the silence.
"We wait like Jaiden said," Izzy held up her hands before Nathan could speak. "I know that you think that will not work, but I need to wait and see what they do with the whole situation too."
"maybe send out a scout to watch what they're doing," Sara offered.
"I could go out tomorrow morning, maybe I'll see something," Eric stated.
Izzy stood up and clapped her hands together, "That's the plan then." She turned to us, "Now, get out!"
Dylan, Nathan, Zaire, and I walked towards the door, leaving Eric and Sara back in Izzy's office to discuss whatever the heck.
Probably trying to get us to work with them, but I know Izzy won't crack.
"To be honest," I said, "I would have totally sided with you Nate, but Izzy would have just thought I was being irrational."
"Good to know," Nathan said.
