Kenta sighed in relief as he didn't find any trace of a corpse in the few locations where Tony's henchmen would have dropped it. The next step was checking a nearby hospital, he entered the main hall and quickly went to the front desk to ask about Winner. Before he could ask anything though, he heard a feeble voice from one of the corridor pronouncing his name, he turned and found Winner standing there. He had bruises all over his body but they had already been treated.

"Kenta... why are you here?" Winner asked.

"We were looking for you. Come with me, Dean is waiting for you" Kenta replied softly. Winner's eyes widened with excitement for a moment, then he looked back down and his tone lost his cheerfulness as fast as he gained it. Kenta came closer to him and put a hand on his shoulder, trying to guide him outside the hospital.

"He's... with you?" Winner asked. Kenta nodded, but he waited until they were in the parking lot of the hospital to make a full answer.

"Yes, he's with us. You should have seen it: we wanted to expose Tony, but fearing that it could be too risky for you, Dean forced us to look for you first. I've never seen him being so resolute even when he worked for Tony" Kenta explained and chuckled at the end. Winner felt a strange sense of comfort as he heard those words. Before starting the engine, Kenta called Pete and he informed him that he found Winner and that they were coming.

The first thing Pete did as he received the good news was calling Dean. The young car racer, sensing the happiness of Pete's voice, quickly guessed what it could be about.

"Kenta found Winner at the hospital, they are coming here"

"I will never thank you enough!" Dean exclaimed and instinctively hugged Pete.

"You've already done it by bringing Babe out of that living hell. I'll wait for them to arrive and then I'll ask Sonic to put the evidence online. It should take just a few minutes..." Pete responded and patted Dean's shoulder. He didn't know how much feeling appreciated could be important to Dean, who finally felt not only part of a team, but of a family.

Jeff went to Charlie's room, whose conditions weren't getting any better (neither were they getting worse, and that could already look like a nice accomplishment to Jeff, who saw his cheerful brother quickly sink into a spiral of depression and self-harm).

"Kenta found Winner, they are coming back" Jeff said, he actually couldn't care less about it, seeing his brother like that, but it was a nice excuse to visit him without making him feel like a patient. Charlie smiled, happy that Dean could finally get off his path of resentment.

Jeff remained there silently for a while, then he finally decided to do something that he preferred not to: he touched Charlie's hand. He always preferred to avoid seeing his brother's future, fearing that it couldn't do any good, but then, seeing how his intervention changed things between Charlie and Babe, he thought that it was the best thing to do.

"What did you see?" Charlie asked.

Jeff didn't answer.
