Isamu steps into the garage as the lights come back on, He looks around and touches his bandadio, "I am in the garage, I know what happened. Just reset the circuit. Jason has left the building. See if there is any way to track him." He approaches Deci, "You left your room. I went to speak with you. How are you doing? Our home, and our odd relationships can be hard to understand. I'm sorry if things happened quickly down in the cells I did want to explain."

Deci hears Isamu's voice and realizes she is still angry at him as well and unintentionally takes the offensive. "How am I doing. Well since joining this team I have had my abilities and capabilities questioned not only by Sara but your girlfriend as well as you. When all I was doing in the basement was trying to give him an outlet to release his anger, and had I finished I was going to be safe. The floor would have been iced and the cold hopefully would of helped sober the individual. Instead of some latitude I get rudely grabbed by my waist which hurt by the way and thrown out of the room. That was twice you personally did not show faith in me or what I can do." She breathes deeply just for the sole purpose of continuing this release of anger.
"The kicker of this all is I am betting you have no idea what I am able to do. I mean god's the only person here that showed any interest to find out something about me was Sierra. I tried to show interest in who you are and what you can do, I even asked questions to find out about all of you. Hell the alcoholic individual right now has given me more faith in myself then all of you!"
Deci is focusing on keeping the cold in check and not losing control with any of her abilities.

Isamu steps forward again, reaches up and turns his band-aid-io is off, and places his arms behind his back, "I am sorry that I performed in a manner that upset you. Please understand I meant you no harm and I apologize for hurting you. You are correct I do not know what you can do. I also was not very forth coming with what I can do. I cannot change the past, but I can work to correct it now, if you would like."
"Allow me to explain my actions first. I do not know what you can do, but I do know what Jason can do. I also know how bad his temper is. In addition I know that if I allowed him to continue his banter towards Ashley, her reaction would have been very bad. I thought the best solution was to let Jason time to vent alone in a cell while I calmed Ashley. I am responsible not just for myself, but for everyone in this home when Alice is not present. I did what I thought best for all involved. I did plan to meet with you and talk, explain things better, but I had to prioritize the different circumstances."
Isamu sighs, and paces a few steps, "I have been given great responsibility, none that I asked for, but was thrust upon me none the less. I sometimes make decisions I feel are correct for the situation, sometimes I act correctly, sometimes I do not. This does not excuse what happened, however I hope this helps you understand things slightly better."
He isn't really trying to defend himself, just explain things, he hasn't had someone he can just speak to, except for Ashley.

Her anger has not receeded yet when Isamu speaks. "So let me get this straight you method of correction is to patronize me by going through some sort of speech that almost reminiscently sounds like it should of come right out of a movie and not even addressing my concerns. I know you are the leader and you are to be concerned or responsible for everyone under you command but with the mantle of leadership comes a modicum of faith at least with my understanding. I AM NOT A CHILD and yet for some reason you have treated me like nothing but. I have not seen you do the same with Sara who as far as I know is just as new here as I am. I have a degree, finished early through hard work. I have just spent a year in the antarctic, so apparently the US scientific teams deemed that I was a capable person. Then I come here and get treated like I do not know what I am doing. Maybe next time you should take a moment to learn your team. I mean we were at the bar in a nice relaxed atmosphere and only reason I left the table is because no one was interacting."
She is still fuming at this time and has to decide between flying off and doing what she decided or staying here and seeing what Isamu does. Surprisingly she goes with the latter. "So mighty leader what is it you want me to do?"

"I am not mighty, and I fear I am not a good leader. All I can do is continue to strive to do my best. I can continue to stand here and apologize, but we both know that it would solve nothing. I am not sure what it is that you want to hear. I do not want to tickle your nose as the saying goes," Isamu continues not realizes he messed up the saying, "I understand your not a child. Sara, has field experience that much MacCoulter told us. I do not know what experience you have. Regardless of the amount of faith I have in someone it will not out way my concern. I do not mean to offend you. Whether I have faith in someone or not, I will always act out of concern first. Always. The reason I acted the way I did at the club was because I was concerned you were in danger. The reason I acted the way I did in the cells, was because I was concerned for all involved. I did not just remove you from the cells, but I removed Ashley as well."
"I do wish I had taken more time at the outset to learn more about you, and for not, I do apologize. I never meant to imply you were not smart or capable. I am sure you are both, and your time in the Antarctic sounds very intriguing. You are right I need to learn the team. Circumstances today did not allow for that unfortunately. I wish time had been more readily available. At the moment it seems we have to try and find out where Jason has gone, not to mention be prepared to go and help Sierra and the others should the need arise. The question though is what would you like to do now?"
Isamu shoulders slump as he poses the questions, his face passive although his eyes are sharp and watching her every move. His stoic expression almost looking pained as he mentions what he considers his failings.

'alright. you pace the hall, get us an estimated guess. i'll check the side doors not leading into apartments .. you get the shots for final approval' *she knows that by actively breaking up the 'group' Vance will have to emerge to see what's going on. with Kristian doing the hall pacing and Sara using the cell phone to get images of the hall, she could check out possible escape routes inside. she assumes that Sara will take the clue or hint to get shots of the outside and cover the window in case of 'easy escape that way. *will her plan work? .. time will tell. sadly, time does don speak to her directly anymore, so who really knows ....

Deci finally hearing what she wanted softens immideiately. "Look I am sorry I am being so difficult. You are right we both could learn from this experience, and you know what those same lines of movies also said that the greatest leaders were the ones that had leadership pushed upon them. So you can not use that, at least you can take it as an improvement. I mean you learned to understand your mistakes and that is a good start. But to answer what we do now, well seeing he was drinking water up here and probably burning out all the alcohol in his system, I am pretty sure Jason is safe. If Sierra calls we can respond, and you should now go hang with you sweetie pie while me, I am not sure what I can do!"

Kristian and Sara take the hints and go about what Sierra suggested. Behind her, Sierra hears the creak of a door, followed by a man's voice," What the hell's all the racket out there?" Vance asked.
* * * * *
" Are you two done with the sappyness?" Ashley said as she entered the room. " So what caused the circuit to trip, and where's Jason?"

Deci points the finger in the general direction that Jason headed, "He went that way, but do not worry, that is water in that there bottle so maybe he is sobering up. Well at least I hope he is."

"Jason ran the treadmill till it shorted out. That caused the circuit to fail. I have asked Janie to track Jason if possible. Otherwise there is not much for us to do. Since we have some time, perhaps we should find a place more comfortable where we can all get to know each other better. Since we will be living together and working together."

" Fake liquor, a circuit interruptor and this power surge trick." Ashley scowled. " He set us up so he could get out of here. I bet starting on me was because he knew you'd haul me out of harms way so I wouldn't try to stop him. what the heck is he up to, Isamu?"

"There is no way to know unfortunately. He knows this city too well. Knowing what we do about his spine, he may be going after the doctors or perhaps after Wraith directly. Let us head up stairs to the war room and see if we cannot piece together why he did what he did. He could have just left when Dimitri and Janie were here with him alone."

" Janie said he was writing something down before he escaped his cell." Ashley said. " but I didn't see a note left behind when I looked in there."

"Well judging by how fast he took off I do not think there is any chance I would be able to catch him. Had I of known he was that fast I might of actually made him stay here. Oh well what can one do." She looks at the two in hopes of an answer.
