Timothy - we hired "special" contractors that Nick trusted and had them sign a contract to not report this and they got to work then got paid handsomely so now we have this
Joey - you really are a genius
Timothy - i made it for us for when we got back together and I'm glad we did
Dontae - me too, he showed me this earlier and I was blown away so this is where we meet when their gone because this is where we discuss the heavy stuff
(dontae turned to look at aphrodite)
Dontae - I promised him you wouldn't betray us if we let you in, prove me right
Aphrodite - thank you
Dontae - there's something important I need discuss with you all
*PERSPECTIVE SWITCH*
(upstairs were euphoria and jacob after dontae dismissed them and euphoria came out the kitchen and was on the couch when jacob called out to her)
Jacob - hey
(she looked up)
Jacob - don't you want to see what they're discussing? They keep shutting us out
Euphoria - i trust timothy if there's anything important he'll tell me, do you not trust dontae?
(jacob was shocked and had a revelation about whether he truly trusted dontae or not)
Jacob - i think so
Jacob - i mean i want to but i feel he's hiding something
(euphoria got up and walked past him and went to the training room and saw they were missing and she walked back up)
Euphoria - well they're gone so I'm guessing they went somewhere else to have their secret discussion
(she walked over to the couch and sat down and jacob sat on the other end)
Jacob - so what's your.. Um… like
Euphoria - can you please stop?
(his head snapped towards her)
Jacob - stop what? I didn't do anything
Euphoria - trying to talk to me, we're not friends we just happen to work together so the whole backstory thing doesn't need to happen
Jacob - I just think that if we work together then we should atleast have a little knowledge of each other. How can you trust someone without even knowing them?
(euphoria was finally looking at him and noticed a soft side and not the usually ignorant version)
Euphoria - timothy saved my life, i feel like i owe everything to him and he took me in without hesitation so this place has been the only place I've felt comfortable calling home
Jacob - what did he save you from?
(she winced and got silent for a while)
Euphoria - my father…
Jacob - what did he do to you?
Euphoria - he abused me and my mother me but he also trained me so I don't know if I should blame or thank him then one day me and my mom were coming home from the store he saw us and he was drunk so he slapped my mom to the floor and he grabbed me and started choking me and just when I thought I was going to die timothy appeared and grabbed his arm and he pushed him away and picked me up and we came here
Euphoria - but by the time he made sure I was ok he went back to get my mom she was already… gone, my father had killed her and he didn't make it back in time so my father is currently serving life in prison and I know timothy regrets that night for not saving her but he should be proud and i'm forever grateful for him
Jacob - that was pretty rough, i sorry you ever had to go through that because losing a parent is the worst feeling in the world and until you experience it for yourself nobody could ever sympathize with you
(he got up and went upstairs)
(before he went upstairs)
Jacob - i'm sorry you had to join the club, it isn't one anyone wants to be part of
(he left the room with euphoria seeing him in a new light)
*PERSPECTIVE SWITCH*
Narration - back to the siblings in the secret bunker discussing something
Aj - what do you mean they're coming to meet up?
Aphrodite - don't you listen? like i said before they're coming to meet with my father wherever he is in the city and the group is called the 'Exterminators'
(joey flinched)
Joey - it's what he told us the E means on the elevator that day
Dontae - oh yeah, when we snuck down there when we were kids
Aphrodite - so he didn't tell you guys about that?
Timothy - when he came to switch us to his side that's when he told us or at least tried to
Dontae - so when he was talking about having two kids
Aj - he meant the oldest two
(aj slammed his hand on the table)
Aj - that bastard was trying to give us some damn family history bullshit
Joey - so I remember he said there were six others
(she nodded her head yes)
Joey - do you know their powers?
Aphrodite - he only brought number four who's the regulator
(dontae looked at her with a glare but let it go)
Aphrodite - and number six
Dontae - that's the other guy you turned into
Aphrodite - yeah they call him Tremor and he can manipulate the earth around him and I heard from my father that he can go berserk which means he becomes an unstoppable force but i don't know for how long
Joey - so can you use their abilities?
Aphrodite - it's not that simple, I have to train hard to use anyone's and even then depending on who it is I have trouble controlling it
Timothy - you used father's good enough
Aj - you think so?
(everyone looked at him)
Aj - i mean she did decent but he still beat us three effortlessly so she wasn't as good as she thought
