The doors open and Clark walks in. Looking stunning in her light pink dress

Welcome Clark, Join us please" Russell says Simone hands her a glass. Probably with wine in it.

"Thank you" she says

"You must be starving" says Russell as we sit down. Me next to Clark, and Russell and Simone across form is.

"I'm fine actually. Delilahs family has been taking good care of us. Thank you for that" Clark says as me, Simone, and Russell strat to eat. I give a piece of chicken to Picasso. My mother glares at me but Clark and Russell laugh a bit.

"It's rude not to eat when your a guest at someone's home Clark" says Simone referring to Clark not eating any of the food.

"Alright" says Clark. She grabs a piece of food and eats it. "Oh my god. It's really good" she says and I laugh. She smiles at me a warm smile like she knows me already.

"We like are simple pleasures her" I say

"We don't like finding strangers in our home" says Simone getting right down to business.

"Oh I'm sorry about that but we were running from a swarm trust me it's not the way that we wanted to be introduced like your founders on ELIGIUS III were looking to start over do better-" she stays but Simone interrupts her.

"Yes I would hope" Simone says "Conseidering you destroid the planet of your birth"

"Actually I was born in Space. But I take your point. Look, here's the truth, without your help we won't survive out there. You know it. I know it. Are ancestors did destroy the Earth. But there your ancestors too." Says Clark trying to prove a point. Simone and Russell look at each other.

"How many people have you killed Clark. Or should we call you Wanheda?" Says Simone. Clark looks taken aback and worried at what she says.

My friend Jordan likes to talk. What else did he say" she asks Simone

"He says you went to the Protected Compound not unlike this one, and murdered everyone inside" I say answering her question instead of Simone. She looks at me disappointed in her self and sad that I know this about her.

"Innocent men,woman and children" says Russell adding onto what I said

"That was different. The mountain men were going to kill everyone that I love. My friends, my mother. I did what I had to do to save my people." She says trying to back herself up.

"Would you do it again" asks Simone.

"We were at war-" Clark tries to answer but Simone interrupts yet again.
