Callisto was still speaking as if she were Lita. Io's heart burned - well, if she even had one anymore. Still, they had to get away, they had no choice but to escape for now. "I was never smart." It was easy for her to be tricked. "So because of stupid me, we're both gone." Escaping from trouble, they ran into the open arms of Azariah Reiss, who for some reason was siding against Dr. Grover with them. If her memory was correct, wasn't Lady Reiss cooperating with Dr. Grover way back then? Or was that just - it hurt her head to try to think of this, it was literally against her programming to consider it, so she wiped it from her mind for now.
In the end Dr. Grover retreated, but only for now. It was clear the hostilities were going to continue. "Why did you help us?" Io asked, still feeling sick to her stomach about all of this. Lady Reiss hugged them both but it was impossible to see her face as this was done. "Because isn't it such a beautiful moment for two twins to reunite?" Did they really, though? Callisto's memories were here, but Lita was still Lita. And this whole time, Fina was wrestling for control again too, trying to push Io back into the corner. "My head hurts." Lady Reiss embraced her again, and as she did her body went limp. For a moment there was extreme pain but then everything felt right again. Fina blinked her eyes, toyed with her fingers then shrugged. "Io is useless." Fina said with new clarity, in control once again. "But I am Fina, and I am very strong."
Minnie and Dane both came to see what was going on, Dane quickly deleting the footage since in the end it did not end up a violent situation. "What's going on? Mother, what do you mean you own Lita now?" Fina too was confused by this but Azariah seemed unfazed by it all. "Because Lita belongs to Fina, and as I own Fina, I also own everything she owns. That's simply how the world works, by dear." Dane gave them weird stares, then shook his head. "Impossible." He muttered. Fina knew what he was talking about as he returned to play with the other Sheep who had no futures and no hopes. "The official story is that Fina here rescued you from the real culprit." Azariah said cheerfully to Lita. "And that as thanks, you wish to do a collaborative DC with my daughter, Minnie Reiss."
And that was when Minnie tried to slap her mother, then was about to fall over on her face before Fina saved her, catching her and then holding her in a princess carry. "Please be more careful, your body is fragile." Fina told her, trying not to look at Lita because it hurt her head and made Io try to fight back. "I don't want your help, Mother! I want to be an Idol with my own strength! That's what true cuteness is!" The silver maiden was glaring despite being carried right now by Azariah. "My dear child don't you know? With your body as it is, you'll never be able to be anything without me. Now take your medicine and behave." Soon enough Jace would be here. She most likely would not buy the story, would she?
