KANE
I watch as Pop's ride pulls up and he hops out, cool and calm. He walks toward me. His eyes already firing questions at me. I shake my head and shrug. His shoulders deflate a little. He stands in front of me and looks me square in the eye.
"Are you okay, Mijo?"
I barely shake my head.
He pulls me to him. "Me either mijo."
"I should have been faster..." I say against his shoulder.
He pulls me closer. "Don't you dare blame yourself. You know he would kick your a** if he heard you say that."
I chuckle. "Yeah..."
"Everything will turn out alright. No matter what. We Santiagos are fighters, we stick together. Right."
I nod. "Right."
He lets go of me. "Come." He smiles at me and pats my back.
I chuckle because I know pops is about to get some sh** done.
OUTSIDE POV
A figure shrouded in darkness watches a helpless Bruce struggle to get free of his restraints. He smiles. "We finally meet Bruce. I have a few bones to pick with you. Shall we begin?" He says with a sinister smirk.

NOW...
Dorian walks into the hospital calmly adjusting his collar, Kane following after him like a wolf ready to strike. Dorian smiles at the receptionist at the desk. "Good evening Ma'am. I would like an update on my son Daniel Silva."
She types in a few thanks and looks at the screen for a brief moment. She looks up at Dorian's kind face. "I apologize sir. But, Mr Silva is still in surgery. I will page one of the nurses to see if there are any updates. I will let you know as soon as I can. I apologize for the wait sir."
He smiles kindly at her. "Thank you Nurse..."
She smiles. "Neil sir. Rebecca Neil."
He nods. "Thank you Nurse Neil." He turns and faces an awestruck Kane.
Kane looks at him confused. "I don't smell charring flesh Pop."
