Epilogue 2

Wilde forced himself to keep moving until he was out of Nash's sight before he let his body betray any sign of pain. Then, Wilde found a quiet little ally, pressed his back against flat against the side of a building, and winced his eyes close in pain. His whole body ached from the movement, despite the medical wonders the Paragon hospital had performed. Even got him a new gold tshirt. Wrong shade though. The energy inside him was messing with his body, begging for a release. It took several deep breaths to get the dizziness to subside.

Wilde's eyes suddenly popped open. Someone was watching him.

Jennifer: I hear you're going to King's Row. You're gonna need some backup. Fortunatly, you've got some. . .

Wilde's eyes met hers. She had that skull mask on again. . . . and she had company . . for the first time in weeks, Wilde cracked a genuine smile as she planted an intense kiss on him in lieu of a greeting.
