Damn. Why did i have to run into her? Anyone but her. No, that's not true. There is one other that I don't want to see.
Nathan started to become angry and his face became dark. His voice took on an accusing tone. "So what if I did?! And I am not saying that's what happenned!"The denial was obvious through his voice. "My choices and the reasoning behind those choices are my own to keep."

The change in Nathan's tone was easily picked up. Nika was pushing the right buttons. Either he was going to break down and talk or they would end up seeing just who was the better fighter.
Nika's tone matched Nathan's for volume and intensity.
"Then if you joined them for just that reason then you're only being selfish. You know how Ali felt about the X-Men and for you to join our enemies is like slapping her in the face."

Nika's last statement almost was the last straw. Mostly because Nathan knew it was the truth. He suddenly had no more anger in him. Only guilt. His shoulders sagged. Nathan's change of posture was most immediate and evident. I hope she never finds out what happenned to me. What I have become...
"You're right. You're absolutely right." He gathered his strength back and spoke. "But there is nothing for it now. And as I said, I won't leave the Order."

Her plan worked. Although either way it would've worked, but she hoped it was the current response Nathan was giving her. He backed down with a shameful look. All Nika could do was keep eye contact and shake her head.
"If you're sticking with them then I suggest you leave before I have to take other actions."
He body was ready to go any which way she needed to but she sure wasn't backing down. Nika never backs down.
"Consider this your one get out of jail for free pass. Next time will be much different Seraph."

Nathan didn't want to leave Nika on a bad note but that was looking how it was going to turn out. Suddenly, Nathan's phone rang from inside his jeans pocket. He pulled it out and opened it. The voice on the other end was full of malice and intent. "You need to get back here. Now!" The phone went dead.
Nathan spoke to Nika, "It seems that 'duty calls' as they say. And I wouldn't expect anything less of you Nika." He started to walk away but then he stopped and turned around to address her one last time.
"If she asks, could you tell her you never saw me?"
