*We fade into a dimly lit hallway in a hospital. An unidentified patient's room is being guarded by Agent 0 and Agent 1 of Genji Security. Nearby, UBL Sergeant Drake Yoshida and OG-Joshi Coach Jean Carter nervously pace back and forth while two members of Gauntlet Security stand no more then twenty feet away. After a few seconds, the door to the room opens.
Terry Butcher walks out.
FPCPP Commissioner and AMBITION Owner, Terry Butcher. The man also known as WholenothaLevel. He has a stoic, 'poker face' expression which Drake and MJC try desperately to read but can't. Level smirks at their failed attempts and simply walks down the hall. He muscles past and easily knocks down the two Gauntlet Security goons who weren't smart enough to respect his space and get out of his way.*
[Drake:] "This doesn't look good, Jean."
[MJC:] "It doesn't look anything. Ok, maybe a little weird, but don't jump to conclusions."
*A few minutes pass until the door opens again. This time, it is Sir Arthur Wingate who walks out. He respectfully bows to Jean and makes a showy display of dusting Drake off before readjusting his collar and then patting him on the back.*
[Arthur:] "All done and entirely painless. In fact, some dynamics remain unchanged. Contact me once you get the entirety of the details."
*Arthur walks away as Drake turns somewhat pale. Jean does as well.*
[MJC:] "Uh...Mr. Wingate?"
[Arthur:] "Yes, my dear. How can I be of service?"
[MJC:] "Is she still in there?"
*Arthur chuckles.*
[Arthur:] "If you are suggesting that one has discarded the other through the window like a piece of refuse, the answer is most fortunately no. But as she had considerably more business to discuss with him then I did, they remain in earnest discussion."
*Arthur nods his head in consideration of the topic.*
[Arthur:] "I do suppose it's been surprisingly non-volatile given their past though. Either she is a true master of her own emotions or some one has frightened her sufficiently to make her finally behave as a proper lady such as yourself, Miss Carter."
*Jean smiles and nods as Arthur walks away. Then she goes back to tending to Drake who looks nauseous as he leans against the wall.*
[MJC:] "I don't know what's happening either, but that feeling in the air is definitely new. It's almost like the recent tension has been broken and I can breathe easier as a result. You said it yourself though, he's been acting like a new man. So let's give him the benefit of the doubt."
*A nurse stops by and administers some oxygen to Drake as they all continue to stand outside the room. About thirty minutes later, the door opens up again to the unmarked hospital room. OG-Joshi World Champion and DESTINY representative, Ruby Moreno saunters out. She laughs at Drake's pallor and looks Jean straight in the eye with as patronizing a smile as one can give.*
[Ruby:] "We're no longer in conflict so command Rose not to breathe a word about my life. You both accomplished what you wanted for the next show: I'll defend my OG-Joshi World Title against whomever you choose. But after that, Miss Carter, it's destiny is now decisively known."
*Ruby laughs and walks off, escorted by her Gauntlet detail who she begins to scold for having dust on the backside of their suits from when they got knocked down before. Jean and Drake walk slowly to the door and we hear someone confidently clearing their throat.*
[Drake:] "...Geese? Sir?"
[Geese:] "Come in, my friends. A bright future awaits us all."
*MJC and Drake tentatively enter the room as the scene fades.*
