Break Out
Keith sat in his cell with restraints and a device on his neck that prevented him from using his sonic scream. They took all of his equipment and locked it away in a safe. His dad was on his way to visit him, which wasn't something Keith looked forward to. Killing the Artist quickly became Keith's biggest regret. He had screwed over not only himself, but his entire family. How was he supposed to make this up to them? He didn't know, and he was just about ready to give up on everything.

	"So you admit he wanted Robert!" Keith exclaimed, having heard 'to take my son' above all else. It upset him that she was trying to make his dad out to be some sort of horrible person. "Dad would never just abandon his son. He didn't abandon Connor, so why would Robert be any different?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"No. He wanted to /possess/ Robert. He wanted yet another chance to mold himself a spoiled little American prince that he could indoctrinate with his ideals." Shado says.

"Your father doesn't get along very well with people who don't espouse his code. I wanted Robert to think for himself and make his own decisions." Shado says.

"Answer me something, Keith. Robert is twenty-three years old. Your father is one of the richest men in the world, possessed of contacts all over the globe. We know he's hunted down men who commit crimes the world over.

Why, in two decades, could he not find his son? I allow that I didn't make it easy, but even after Robert left my care, Oliver still knew of him.

How did you come to meet Robert, Keith? Did Oliver tell you to seek him out?" Shado asks.

"Connor doesn't think like Dad," Keith retorted. "Neither did Mia."

"Maybe he didn't look for him because you did something to make it so he couldn't. It could be the fact that you let Deathstroke The Terminator be a father figure to your son, and then let him join the League of Assassins."

He was clearly not happy with Shado. And her last question... sort of threw him. It made his tone take a step back.

"We, uh... ran into each other the other day..." When Keith killed the Artist.

"Yet they both follow his code and his ideals, as does Roy Harper. As do you, Keith. And I knew that Robert would be forced down that path if Oliver had his way, because Oliver Queen only believes in The World According to Oliver Queen." Shado says.

"Robert did not join the League. That was one of my few conditions in allow Slade to teach him. I did not want Robert molded down that path any more than I wanted him to follow his father's. Robert's path is different from that of other men, Keith.

Just as yours is." she says, watching him closely.

When Keith's answer comes out haltingly, Shado smiles somewhat.

"Interesting. You ran into him the other day and now the two of you are running from the League of Assassins. How did you anger them?" she asks.

	"Yeah, okay, whatever," Keith replied, pretty much dismissing everything Shado said to him. "I didn't do anything wrong. They just up and attacked Robert. He just got me there for help and then we left when that crazy psycho bitch got hostile." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

"He was obviously desperate to help you if he would turn to the League of Assassins. Damien Wilson does nothing without asking for something in return, Keith.

What kind of trouble would you be in to warrant Robert beseeching the League? I wonder." Shado says, looking the young man over cautiously.

"I know my son well, Keith. He would not seek aid from others for something he felt he was capable of doing himself.

Does Oliver know where you are?" she asks.

	"It's none of your business," Keith replied. It pretty clearly outlined that Ollie didn't know where Keith was, and the kid didn't trust or like Shado enough to talk about it. (Reply to this)(Parent)
