Waves in the crowd
#36
As quickly as it had come, the storm in Damien's eyes faded into a genuine smile. He was glad that the Ascendancy had not filled his ranks with fools. Indeed, the Sigma might have even purposely been sent to test him. The Ascendancy liked his games, so he was told. An unfortunate difference in them. Damien had played others' games all of his life. Now that he had been set free by the Light, there were no games.

The Sigma hated him, of that he was certain. He made no show to hide it. Many men and women had hated him; many of those were now dead. However, it was quite something else with the Sigma. He had power and confidence unlike the Mockingbird, and some authority, unlike the cartel shills.

Another unfortunate difference. Damien held no hatred for the man, nor did he care to kill him.

Damien smiled, however. He smiled, for the Sigma's quick response bode well for the capabilities of the Ascendancy himself. He nodded, and the men backed away, lowering their weapons.

"Much better,"
he said lightly. "I thought I would be disappointed, but you have not been."


He bowed his head slightly. "It seems you are as intelligent as they say."


At the intended barb about hiding, he laughed. "A man so famous as myself, as you have just described, finds that anonymity is very useful."
he cocked his head. "The Ascendancy has used it very well himself. He has hidden himself perhaps the best of us all."


"But that is all about to end, hmm?"


He shifted his gaze from the Sigma back to the audience. "You are right, of course. I could cause a storm, the likes of which has never been seen,"
Damien did not brag, he stated fact.

"But I won't,"
he finished with a smile. "The world is changing. It is full of corruption and chaos. I did not destroy the cartels for fun, Sigma. Why would I throw that away by causing a moments chaos this day?"


He felt the other man approach and speak to the Sigma. Another one in Ascendancy's employ, by the sound of it. Brave, too.

"A good day to you, Officer,"
Damien said. "The good Sigma is simply doing his job. We have a fine spot for viewing the Ascendancy's speech."


He glanced at the Sigma - he never gave his name, it occurred to him. No matter. "The Sigma here will take good care of me."
