Phoenix nodded and pulled out the picture and handed it to the Viper.
"Last I saw of him he was moving to Vegas," Wilton said. "Moving there from New York with his wife, who was in term at the time. Last I ever saw or heard from him."
~~~~~~
"She was delirious from an infection from what I was told," Rodgers said. "Woke up in a strange place and reacted what would be expected of her."

Ebony took the picture in her antenna-grip and studied it for a moment as she listened to Wilton, the white Trans Am woman in the photo looking like she was in term. She turned the photo over and read two names on the back: Chase and Chloe.
"Mr. StreamLiner," she said, holding out the picture, "Would the two cars in the photo be them? Also, turn it over and read the names on the back. I'm not sure, but this might confirm something."

"Verant said at the trial that she had been brought in with punctural wounds." Egill said. He raised his tire slightly so Rodgers would not speak. A moment later, the Focus appeared, ready to take down the order. Egill gave her mind a slight 'push', letting her feel a slight apprehension and fright, but not enough to raise alarms, but enough so that she would keep out of their business except for when to bring their meals and then the check. She quickly took down the orders, then went to the kitchen.
"How did she get them?" Egill asked in continuance.

"That would be them," Wilton said. "I'd recognize those scars he had anywhere. He did always say they were a pain to get rid of."
~~~~~
Rodgers blinked as the Focus left and turned back to 'Renolds'. "She got them from a Tuner that stopped her from attacking another human."

"Scars?" asked Ebony, "What happened to him, if I may ask?"

"Sanders." Egill said almost if bored. While there were few gaps to fill, they were still few and would have been easy to fill in with a bit of thought. "Humans have been very clear that we are lethal to them. And given her wounds and disorientation, she may have not used any speed we think as damaging." Egill was silent for a moment. Rodgers had known that Aron had been sore after the attack. Either that meant his contact was human, then nothing much to the attack other than ask about the contact. But if the contact was a car or auto, that meant two things. If the contact was made shortly after the attack, the attack would have done a something more than leaving sore for it to be detectable by autos. Or if the contact was done later, that meant there was more information to know about the humans, as the contact would have had time to study them further to know Aron was sore.
"Do you know how long time passed from the attack and until you were contacted with the information?"

"Abused," Wilton said. "By his own father when he and his mother shared custody of him."
Phoenix blinked as she listened, her antenna tracing over her own scars.
~~~~~~
"A month or two," Rodgers said. "When I found out where my ex-employer was."

Egill gave a slight smile. There was most likely more information. "It is a long time. Surely you were told more than about the attack." He picked up a thin folder from his side compartment and kept it by him, out of Rodgers' reach. An incentive.

Ebony began to put two and two together. "His own father wouldn't happen to be Bart Grayston, would it?" She looked at Phoenix, "Because he had done the same to his own granddaughter."

"Thats the only Bart thats cold enough to do that to his own son," Wilton said looking at Phoenix.
~~~~~
"She told me about a couple of humans she spent a lot of time around," Rodgers said eying the folder. "Along with a few other incidents involving her."

"Don't worry, it is a part of your payment." Egill said. The Focus arrived with their orders, gave her generic smile she was taught to bear all the time, then went away after getting confirmation that she had the right orders. "Continue." Egill said to Rodgers.

Ebony closed her eyes and gave a ragged sigh. She could still remember her own encounter with Bart Grayston.
"Yeah, I met him too," she said, "and I have to agree with you about how cold he was. Glad he's dead now. But I'm so sorry about hearing about Chase. I think he may have been Phoenix's father. But what happened to Chloe?"

"Died I think," Wilton said. "I was told after giving birth to their child... A daughter..."
~~~~~
"She said one of the humans was a user," Rodgers said. "My former employer was teaching her before she found out she was carrying."

"A daughter..." Ebony looked back at Phoenix, "who happens to be Phoenix... Does that mean...?"

"I believe so," Wilton nodded his front. "She's niece."
Phoenix had started to back up shaking her front. She had family.
