Gambi was in the Sanctum one night, but he was surprised when he got an alert that someone was upstairs. When he came up, he was shocked to find Lady Eve sitting upstairs and it looked like she'd been shot.

"What are you doing here Evelyn?" Gambi asked.

"You were right about Tobias." Eve said as she spat out some blood.

"Really, how so?" Gambi asked, though he had an idea.

"He's wiping out the Shadow Board. I'm the last one and I barely managed to escape. This was the only place I could think of going, since Tobias has all my other locations under surveillance." Eve said and Gambi sighed.

"You know he'll come here eventually. You've put myself and those I care about in jeopardy." Gambi said.

"I can make it worth your while." Eve said quickly.

"Go on." Gambi said.

"If you patch me up and get me out of Freeland, I will give you all the information I have about Tobias's operation." Eve said and Gambi nodded.

"Fine. I'll get you patched up for the intel on Tobias, but getting you out of Freeland, that'll cost you extra." Gambi said.

"What else do you want that I could offer?" Eve asked.

"We both know that the ASA runs the Shadow Board. If you want out of Freeland, I want all the information you have on the ASA. Do we have a deal?" Gambi asked.

"Odell will kill me if I squeal on him." Eve said.

"No he won't. I'm already working on an operation to bring down the ASA. We've gotten a secure briefcase outside the city and we're working on bringing them down. Any additional information you can give will help us bring him down." Gambi said and Eve knew that was the best offer she'd get.

"Fine, deal." Eve said, somewhat grudgingly.


"Okay Gambi, what is so urgent we had to get here right away in the middle of the night?" Jefferson asked as he, Lynn, Anissa, Grace (since she'd been spending the night with Anissa when they'd gotten the call and since she had her memories of the old earth, there was no reason for her to not join the team) and Jen all stood in the Sanctum, some of them still in their pajamas due to the time Gambi had called them at.

"Lady Eve showed up here earlier tonight." Gambi said.

"Wait what?" Jefferson asked.

"Don't worry, this time it's beneficial for us." Gambi said.

"What do you mean?" Anissa asked.

"Tobias wiped out the Shadow Board." Gambi said.

"And what is, or was, the Shadow Board?" Jen asked.

"A subsidiary of the ASA, using the cartels of Freeland to help them gain funding." Jefferson said.

"So why do we care?" Grace asked.

"Tobias used his claim of killing me to get the Shadow Board's attention and now that Black Lightning is back, his position in it likely was threatened, so he wiped them out." Jefferson explained and Gambi nodded.

"Lady Eve and I made a deal. In exchange for patching up her injuries and getting her out of Freeland, she's agreed to give us all the information she has on both Tobias and the ASA. Seems like a mutually beneficial arrangement." Gambi said.

"Agreed, especially since Kara seems to be taking her sweet time with that article." Jen said.

"I actually called her about that and she's working on it as hard and as fast as she can, but she's got her own issues to deal with, so we can't expect her to put our needs before her own goals." Jefferson said and Jen nodded.

"So, what assurance do we have that Lady Eve will uphold her end of the bargain?" Anissa asked, getting them back on topic.

"After I patched her up, Eve gave me the location on where she keeps her dirt against Tobias. She said once she's out of Freeland, she'll give us the location on the dirt against ASA, since she kept both in different locations." Gambi said.

"Anissa, Grace, I want you two to go confirm and retrieve the information. Once we have it, then we'll start working on a plan to get Lady Eve out of the city. Where is she?" Jefferson asked.

"Upstairs. She has no idea about the Sanctum's location or any of you. It's why I told you guys to take the secret entrance here." Gambi said and they nodded.

"We'll head out in the morning, it's too late now." Anissa said as she yawned and Grace nodded her agreement.

"Sounds like a plan." Jefferson agreed as they all headed out.
