Bernard watched intently as the the mayor watched the video. A deep frown fell upon his face followed by a deep sigh as he picked up the phone. Apperently the red headed Sensitive had made his point. He wasn’t overly fond of the notion he could still expecting addition baggage but the wheels were in motion to get to Rycroft on his terms.
The Mayor began dialing the number and a heated conversation soon followed as he pushed his request. A strange look crossed his face before he revealed stumbling across some video. The long silence that followed was unnerving.
After a brief Thank you that ended the silence the Mayor finally hung up the phone. "The secretary was giving me a hard time and Rycroft didn't want to make the trip, but he will be on his way. I hope you know what you're doing..."
"So do I. " Bernard thought reflecting on the fact that the Executive was just as likely to take their lives for interfering. After all the man DID already want him dead. He could only assume Rycroft was desperate enough at this point to accept his help. What was the alternative?
”Thank you.” Bernard responded with a gratuity of his own.”” You made the tough choice. I can only offer my help. Hopefully Rycroft will come clean and fill in some of the blanks. Maybe if we work together we can still save this city.”
It was at this point Bernard realized something bizzare; despite what he became, he was beginning to sound a lot like a hero.
