Hello My Lover (Lian)
Morgaine, to put it simply, was going to kill him. So would James.

His only advantage would be that his doppelganger would quite likely die first, when they realized that Damien had slipped away from them at some point.

For the first time in his life, Damien Wilson flew on a /commercial/ plane in /coach/. His mother would have a fit over that alone, but this mission was of the utmost importance. He did rented a car under an assumed name at Star City International airport and then drove through the streets to his destination. Damn, he hated American traffic laws. Passing by Outsiders HQ was surreal, knowing that any of them could be on the streets at any time. If they found him, they would probably see fit to kill him for the wounds he'd inflicted months ago.

In a way, today's trip is an attempt to begin the healing of those wounds.

He parks the car six blocks from the apartment address James gave him and uses the time to meditate and center himself. He's going to need to be fast at this to keep from being seen. He must be ready for any opposition between himself and his target.

And he must be ready for his wife's anger, and even her hate.

When night fell, Damien made his way across the rooftops to Lian's apartment building and scouted the area. The lights were off. He couldn't be certain if she was home or not, so he had to risk it.

Minutes later, after successfully getting a window open, Damien sneaks into Lian's home, much the same as she did to his months ago when this entire thing began. Now they were even.
He waits inside for her to return, hoping that she is still well.

"The frying pan can be a very dangerous weapon, if used wisely," Lian said, smirking.

"But you saved yourself from a frying pan beating."

She finished cooking and got down two plates, dividing it evenly between the two of them. She found a gallon of milk in the refrigerator and poured two glasses. She brought it over to where Damien was sitting,and placed their meals down,sitting down herself.

Damien takes a hearty bite of the food and does a surprised double-take.

"This...this is really good, Lian. Are you /certain/ this is boxed food?" he asks, eating more.

Lian grinned from ear-to-ear.

"What can I say? I have a gift."

"Yes, she does, Little Ones. Your mother has /several/ gifts." Damien grins, continuing to eat.

"No scarring them before they're born," Lian said, as she started to eat.

"Oh, no. I would not." Damien says, his expression growing sad.

"They will never even know of today, or how much I love them and their mother. If the world has it's way, my children will never even know that I exist." Damien says quietly.

Lian's smile fell from her face.

"You have no idea how much I wish I could change that, Damien."

"If, after today, I am dead or...if I cannot be near you and our children again, I am begging you for one favor." Damien says.

"Even if they are told how terrible I am by everyone you know...please tell our children that I have loved them from the moment I knew of them, and that I will /always, always, always/ love them, no matter who they choose to be in their futures.

Even if that means we stand on opposite sides. Will you this for me?" Damien asks.

Lian reached across the table, taking a hold of his hand.

"I promise, Damien," she said.

Damien turns his hand palm-up to hold Lian's hand.

"Thank you, Beloved. I can rest easier knowing that you will tell them something good about me, at least once." he says.

"I will, Damien," she said. "I promise."

"Have you saved room for dessert?"

Lian took his hand, standing up from the table.

"Then dessert is served."

She led him back to the bedroom.

Damien stands, better able to support his weight on his ankle now, and makes his way to bedroom with Lian for dessert.

A little while later, Lian was resting with her head on Damien's chest again.

"We...we should probably call my father."

"You are right." Damien says, playing with Lian's fingers.

"I am ready to face your father. He will not find a coward in me." Damien says.

Lian kissed him.

"With any luck, he won't want to kill you. Hopefully."

She rolled over in the bed, looking for the spare phone that her father kept lying around. When she found it, she dialed her father.

Only a few people have the location of Roy's safehouses in Star City, and they all know to call within a certain time period if they're using one.

When the number comes up on his phone, Roy answers.

"Harper." he says simply.

"Sweetheart, is everything okay?" Roy asks, concern coloring his voice.

"Why are you at the safehouse, Lian?" Roy questions, pushing himself to his feet to start grabbing some gear.

"I'm fine, Dad." Lian inhaled.

"I was attacked, Dad. By Cerdian. And Ra's al Ghul.

And I'm not alone, Dad.

Damien's here. With me.

Roy is silent for barely a moment.

"Sweetheart, Cerdian is dead and so is Ra's al Ghul, last I heard. I confirmed it with your Uncle Dick and Tim Drake. Are you sure that's what you saw?

Can Damien vouch for that?" Roy asks, trying to remember which shelf his Desert Eagle is in.

"Dad it was Cerdian. I know it was. He...he knew everything about me. Like Cerdian always did. And I'm pretty sure it was Ra's al Ghul, Dad. They were still dead...I think. But something was different about them.

And yes, he can."
