The Coterie gathers on the ground and looks for anyone they recognise, unsuccessfully. Oxford chats to someone and comes back to advise they gather at the “muster” point, which belongs to the Anarchs. Anton suggests that we have been attacked and getting ourselves off the radar would be a better idea, and a quick search on his phone brings up a small bed and breakfast not too distant that would seem to suit.
As the wounded group make their way along the street and check to see they are not being followed, they notice a figure following them. Anton hangs back to see who it is and discovers it is Mikaila and she is severely wounded. He phones Larissa and asks her to come back to tend to the injury, and calls Fat Larry and tells him they need a pickup and medic urgently. Larry says a car will be there in about 20 minutes, but Larissa does not believe Mikaila will last the distance.
Malady suggests that “turning” Mikaila might be the best solution, but Anton immediately rejects that idea. The others first gently and then more aggressively try to argue with Anton that it is the only way to save Mikaila, but Anton remains adamant. After proposing amongst themselves that they simply do it anyway, despite Anton’s objections, Oxford makes a move towards Mikaila and Anton immediately reacts - Larissa attempts to knock him over, but he brushes it off and manages to successfully Compel Oxford to “stay away from Mikaila”.
Anton continues to urge Mikaila to hold on until help arrives, despites Larissa’s protestations, but she passes just before the car arrives. The driver advises that he will take care of the body and arrangements. Anton asks him to try and get information on Morty.
He then proceeds wordlessly on to the bed and breakfast and checks the group in, before retiring for the rest of the night.

The following evening, Anton goes out without checking what any of the others are doing.
