(S9/Flame?) Thomas heads off into the direction that he believes his family to be. Unanswered questions roil in the back of his mind, like the sound of distant thunder. He tried his best to ignore them. Sometimes there were no answers, only choices, and he decided that the best choice right now would be to limit his family's exposure to a very dangerous man who was holding a grudge against him.

Eventually, he finds Regina and Tirush, and the group of girls that surround them. Regina smiles broadly at seeing him, but her smile quickly fades as she sees his expression.

"Gather all the girls," he says unceremoniously as he approaches. "We're leaving."

Regina's mouth opens and closes in surprise. "Thomas? What---"

"Just do it," he says, more firmly this time. "Jorge is here, and he's looking for a fight. For some reason, he picked me."

Regina's eyes widen in horror. "Fight you?? But...why?"

"I don't know, Regina!" Thomas barks, throwing his hands up suddenly, making his daughters jump. "Let's just gather everyone and let's get out of here. I don't want us to spend any more time here that would give him any reason to start anything."

"I would kill him if he tried," Tirush says matter-of-factly.

"No, you won't, either," Thomas says, authority in his voice. "I'm not going to put us in a situation where anyone could get hurt or property could be damaged. This is Baku's territory and we're going to respect him."

At that moment, Ferra walks up with Gemmi. Thomas begins herding all of them away from the headquarters so they can teleport away safely.
