Welcome to Gaia! ::

Bane was quiet during all this. Since Callum knew this man since they were kids, he wasn't going to interfere. When Autumn hugged him and left, Bane sighed. This was the first time he had been exposed to the darker side of the gang. Callum told Bane to leave and he listened, going up to his room. Walking in, he saw Autumn on the bed and Bane sat on the edge before leaning forward. "...Are you alright?" Stupid. Stupid question. Bane wanted to hit himself, but he didn't.

Bane sighed. "It's not easy for him either. He hides it, but when conditions like this are met and he has to execute one of his men, especially someone from his childhood....Autumn, you understand he can't spare him because he'd lose the respect of others, right? Greg wasn't exagggerating when he said respect was one of the few things keeping Callum alive." Bane turned and took Autumn's hand softly, kissing it. "You at least understand why he has to do this, don't you?"

How did they kill? Bane sighed. "It depends on the situation. In this case, I'm sure Callum will make it painless. If I were him, I'd give Greg an overdose of sleeping pills. But....I don't know what he's going to do." Bane moved back and hugged Autumn, kissing his head. "Yes. It'll stress him. Are you worried?"

Bane gave a soft smile. Autumn was smart, and sweet. "...I would hope it would be hard for him. He's not heartless, as you know." Laying down, he held Autumn close before reaching over to pet Kasei. "I can't say. No one knows for sure. Whenever someone asks, he changes his answer. I like to think for the same reason I joined. A place to belong. But, I don't know for certain. Maybe he was visited by a demon in his dreams or something. Who knows?"

Bane was flattered that all Autumn needed was him and Callum. "What about Kasei? He's important, too~." Bane lifted the puppy and laid it between the two, petting his head softly. He then kissed Autumn and closed his eyes. "Let's get some rest. When we wake up, we'll go see how Callum's doing. Okay?"

One shot. It only took one shot. Callum ended it quickly and as painlessly as he could. Afterwards, he didn't say anything to anyone and instead left the distillery to pay a visit to Greg's wife. It wasn't a pleasant visit. He didn't lie about how he died. Didn't say something like he died while helping rescue Autumn. He told the truth.

A traitor had been eliminated.

He suffered hits, threats, and a lamp before she went upstairs to cry. Callum left and returned to the distillery to clean up and send the body to the coroner to be prepped for burial. Afterwards, he retreated to his bedroom to mourn. And, drink. He drank a lot and ended up passing out from mental exhaustion and being drunk. He had never actually drank so much before, but it had been tempting and he just wanted the escape for awhile.

Autumn slept soundly until Bane shook his shoulder. Opening his eyes he rubbed the sleep from them and looked at his puppy nodding and getting the leash. "Will you come with me? After earlier i don't want to go out alone." Of course he was probably safe now that everyone was aware what had happened and the end result. He had a good idea that everyone was going to keep an eye on him for awhile.

Putting the leash on Kasei Autumn opened the door and started to walk outside. He had brought a bag with him to clean anything up if Kasei did anything more then lift his leg.

Autumn held the leash firmly in both hands and he went outside with Bane. "I am, I hope Callum is doing alright. How are you?" He asked looking to his lover hoping this day wasnt too hard on him. "I know today wasnt the best, but at least it can only go uphill from here right?"
