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.

"Being shot is a bitch." Damien says, before he realizes what he said.

"Pardon my expression. You and the babies should not be exposed to that kind of language." he apologizes. "But it is not fun. I always believe I'm used to it until it happens, and then I realize how much it /itches/." he chuckles, then coughs violently.

He spits the metallic slug out onto the floor, as well as a nice helping of blood.

"I think I'm starting to understand what pneumonia feels like." he jests. He doesn't want to scare her.

"We can't stay here, Lian. Not when Cerdian knows where we are." he says.

Lian managed a chuckle. "You've heard me when I'm angry...and at other occasions."

She nodded. "But first, we need to patch you up. And don't you dare tell me no." She narrowed her eyes at him.

Damien holds her gaze for a moment, debating how much effort it will take to reconsider her position. In the end, he decides to give Lian her way for the time being.

"Very well, Beloved. You may patch me up first, then I am carrying you out of here." he says.

Lian went into the bedroom to get the first aid kit. She brought it back out, motioning for Damien to make his way to the couch.

"You might want to bite down on something," she said as she removed his shirt. "I don't have anything to numb stitches."

"Do it, Lian. Ra's used to make me heal without any manner of numbing or pain dampening. He said the pain would burn away my weakness." Damien says quietly.

Usually, all it did was make him wish he was dead.

Lian nodded, mopping up the blood and making sure that there were no bullet fragments in Damien's wound before she began to stitch it up.

Damien does not grunt in pain. He simply closes his eyes and focuses on his breathing, Lian's scent, and how to keep her safe.

"If I had known that we would be repaid for our amazing sex by nearly being murdered...I still would have done it. I would have just asked Morgaine and James to stand guard." Damien jokes.

"Are you certain you're well, Beloved?" he asks. "You just watched your father die."

"I'll be fine," Lian replied, working on stitching up Damien's wounds carefully.

It wasn't the first time she had watched someone close to her die, after all.

"Kiss me. Right now." Damien says.

Damien kisses Lian, feeling his pains evaporate in that moment and his courage renew.

When the kiss breaks, he rises from his chair and takes her hand.

"Grab anything you feel we need, Beloved. You have two minutes and then we must leave. I do not want to be here if Cerdian or any of those things chooses to return." Damien says.

"But we will need to contact others about this. It is too surreal to not be a part of something larger." Damien tells her.

Lian nodded.

"I agree, Damien...or do you think it would be better for us to separate?"

Damien considers her words for a long moment. He wanted to stay with her and the babies more than anything, but he would only bring her grief from her family and friends if he did. Her teammates would be more interested in attacking him than anything they had to say.

And whatever had happened with Cerdian and Roy was a least keeping her and the children safe for the time being. Meanwhile, his grandfather and his mother were both still out there and would come for him, regardless of Lian's condition.

"For now, you should go to Outsiders' HQ and inform your team of what is coming. Tell any others you can as well and find out if this is occurring anywhere else.

I will contact my sister and mobilize the League. Morgaine needs to be aware of the situation regarding Ra's al Ghul and our mother." Damien says.

"But I /will/ come back for your and our children and then we shall find that place no one can find us and be together." Damien says.

"I will," she said. "I'll inform the other teams as well. I don't think it's just us being attacked by zombies.

Please Damien, please be careful."

She kissed him again.

"I love you." She had to tell him, before she had to back pretending to hate him.

Damien returns the kiss, then pulls her into a hug as close as her belly will allow.

"I love you, too, Lian. Remember this time we have together, please, in case the worst should happen before I see you again." he says.

"But I will do anything I have to to anyone I have to in order to come back to you." he says.

Lian leaned into Damien, closing her eyes for a moment.

"Even if the worst doesn't happen...and we can't be together again, I will. Even if I have to spend the rest of my life pretending to hate you...I love you. Please don't forget that again."

"I promise that I will never forget again, Beloved, no matter what." Damien says.

"Now, come with me and I will make sure you get to the Outsiders before I leave." Damien says.

Lian nodded. "Yes," she took his hand. "Though maybe you should only take me most of the way...we don't want you being seen."

"You are right, Beloved, as usual. I do not want to do anything to cause you issues. We'll go now." he says.
