Epilogue
"So Bernard is going back to where he belongs," The Official said as he listened to Bobby's report on arresting Bernard.
"Yes sir. He will be facing Blackmailing and Kidnapping charges," replied Bobby.
"I see. And what about Cristelle?" asked The Official.
"She's been charged as an accessory. She'll have to serve time in the women's pen," Bobby said.
"Right. Where's Fawkes?" asked The Official.
"He went to see the Keeper," replied Bobby following his boss out the door and down to the lab.
"How is he?" Bobby asked Claire.
"He's fine. There was no allergic reaction between the tranquilliser and the quicksilver," replied Claire.
"That's not what I meant," Bobby said.
Claire sighed. "Well he's...the usual after an episode. He feels guilty, remorse..." replied Claire.
"Where is he now?" asked Bobby.
"He went to see Alex," replied Claire.
Darien stopped outside Alex's door. He knew he had to apologise to her. He felt ashamed and embarrassed. He was about to knock on the door when the door opened. Alex nearly ran into him. She was wearing a neck brace. The two looked at each other but Darien looked away first dropping his head to the floor.
"Alex. I came to apologise," he said lifting his head. He couldn't look her in the eye.
"It's fine, Darien," she said subconsciously feeling the neck brace.
"God. Did I do that?" he asked.
"I pulled a ligament," she replied.
"Alex..." Darien started to say but Alex was already walking down the hallway. He stared after her unhappily. He turned to see Bobby standing behind him.
"How long were you standing there for?" Darien asked.
"Not long," replied Bobby.
Darien was silent for a few minutes as he looked for something to say.
"You should have put a bullet in me," he said eventually.
Bobby shook his head. "I couldn't, man." Darien looked at his partner for several minutes.
"I'm going home," Darien said turning around. Bobby watched as Darien walked down the hallway.
"Hey you think you need an escort. In case you get kidnapped or somethin'?" Bobby called after him.
Darien laughed.
"In a fairy tale, don't ask me which one, the princess, I think, is granted three wishes. She had to choose wisely for her three wishes or they would be wasted. Well if I had three wishes they would be (1) to get the gland out of my head, (2) to get the gland out of my head and well... wish number three would be the same as well. That way I can choose wisely and not have any regrets"
