There was a time where he was his brother's shadow, watching him from afar to make sure he was taken care of, but that was not the time anymore. Abel had a daughter to take care of now, so he didn't have much time to pop in on his brother and see how he was doing.
It was a quick teleport to where he knew his brother was at, but he wasn't there. Another quick teleport to where he worked showed he wasn't there either and that was worrying. It wasn't time for his brother to move on to a new life and he wouldn't just disappear like this. He teleported somewhere out of the way and summoned Romulus' Reaper. It appeared in usual dramatic Reaper fashion, pulling itself out of an inky black puddle and reforming itself into its usual Reaper form.
cerberus. i was waiting for you to summon me.
Abel crossed his arms and frowned at the Reaper, unhappy about what he said. "You should have contacted me when he vanished instead of waiting," he answered, annoyance clearly visible in his voice. He was not happy. "I need his location."
it is not my job to watch over him in life, cerberus. that is the job you gave yourself. The Reaper wasn't being harsh, but merely stating the truth. Abel sighed and the Reaper looked at him with those bright silver eyes of its. i shall give you his location and as per our agreement, this will not be recorded.
"Thanks for that," he said with a grin as the Reaper read off the coordinates. "You could make my job easier by informing me about things like this."
perhaps. i will think on it. until then, i wish you luck, cerberus.
The Reaper disappeared in a reverse of his entrance, but Abel was already teleporting back home to grab a few things. He got dressed in his standard Enforcer outfit, grabbed a few of his weapons, and then filled an old backpack with supplies. Thankfully, Holly was at school and he'd leave a note explaining that he'd be gone for a bit. She could take care of herself for as long as it took for Abel to free his brother from whoever had grabbed him.
Once he was ready, he teleported to the coordinates the Reaper gave him. It was some kind of building and immediately he thrust his hand into a wall and grabbed the wires located inside. Forcing his Enforcer powers into the electrical writing, he overloaded the entire system and shut it down, plunging the facility into darkness for only a brief moment before the backup generators flickered to life and the lights came on once again.
Done with that, Abel silently moved through the corridors, looking for anybody and once he did, he drew his gun and pressed it up against the back of their head. "You seem like a smart person," he stated calmly, barely hiding the fury in his voice. "So let's not start with threats and instead you just tell me where you're keeping the immortal man and lead me to him. If you don't, I'm sure you can imagine how this is going to end for you."
