Piper had been looking everywhere for him. It wasn't as if they were on the best of terms... Hell, they weren't even friends... But they were both Agents, and they were both working towards the same goal.

No matter how much she despised admitting he was right.

She had been about to breeze past the gym when she caught sight of him and stopped. Deep breaths, Piper. Moving back to the door, she let herself in, shoulders back and body stiff. He would recognize the well trained military posture.

"Agent Cross," she said stiffly.

Taner sets the weights of the bench press down and sits up when hearing his voice. He's noticeably surprised to see Piper, more so given the nature of her entrance. Slowly, he stands and makes his way toward her.

"What's up, Piper?"

His voice sounds rather pleasant. No hostility on this end.

At least he wasn't being hostile.

Still, she didn't seem able to relax. It wasn't something she knew how to do, when talking about this subject.

"Director Gavyns has instructed me to prepare and brief the selected squad on a mission. You were mentioned, as well as Senior Agent Schaffer and Agent Silverman." She didn't know Enya's last name. "I'd like to discuss the mission with you, if possible, and have a plan of action prepared to be presented to Director Gavyns."

Completely different from the angry, angsty teen girl who had gotten angry with him in the Tutorial.

Taner raises a brow, obviously something is up. However, it seems he'll find out anyway so there is no need to agitate by pressing at the moment.

"Okay. You alright?"

He's actually a little concerned.

Her mask faltered for a moment. They might not get along, but this was something she struggled hiding from anyone. He would see her face twitch, her breath hitch. Softly, she whispered, "No."

Then, she was back to the militant position. She took a steadying breath and forced her mask back into place.

"You were right about me, Agent Cross," she said. "You were also wrong. I had the potential to betray Paradigm Academy, but the choice is mine. And I am making it."

A hardness touched her words. She was trying to hold herself together.

Taner waits for her to explain before smiling.

"I'm glad. Never been happier to be wrong."

He gives her thumbs up.

She tried to smile, but it came out forced.

"Our target is Jimothy Clavish."

There. Just get it out of the way.

Taner nods, not sure on the details but he thought that guy was dead. Was an alternate one here? He can't recall from what his mother told him.

"Okay. You going to be okay on this?"

She seems to have some history here, he just wants to be sure.

"Most likely not," she admitted, and her shoulders slumped slightly. "I've already informed Director Gavyns that I expect somebody from the team to take me down the moment I start acting strangely."

Piper shook her head and sighed. "I can lead you guys to him, but he has... something. I don't know. Mind control or something, but he has power over me. And if I can't fight it, I need to be knocked unconscious. I will be a liability."

Taner nods, must've taken quite a bit to get this far if that's the case.

"I'll be sure to bring some tranquilizer along just in case then."

He's not sure about the other so it seems it falls on him to be the one to do it.

"Afterward, you might want to start weekly sessions with Dr. Gavyns just to make sure you're clear of this."

"I've attempted to speak with Dr Gavyns before and it's done me no good," she admitted, but there was no hostility in her voice.

"Jimothy Clavish needs to be contained, not killed. His hold over me extends only so long as I am in his presence."

Then, there was a slight almost-smile on her face. "I have been experiencing my own brand of therapy. Don't worry."

"Okay..."

Taner isn't sold on the own therapy thing but he'll let it lie. Something is working.

"If I recall, he can't be killed. Any idea on how to stop him?"

"Honestly, he always seemed pretty invincible to me."

Meshing her teeth together, she took a deep breath. "Incapacation and capture is probably our best bet. Relocation, though, I have no clue about."

"Hmmm... I wonder if Eric could send him back."

Taner thinks out loud but the portal guy he's seen when checking on others in the infirmary.

"Eric wasn't suggested as a member of the squad," she said softly.

"He doesn't necessarily need to come along for the op. Just thinking as a means of getting rid of him permanently."

Though, dumping him into a portal instead using the powers of those suggested seemed just as plausible a tactic.

She wasn't sure if that WOULD get rid of him permanently, but it was definitely an option.

"Is there a way to neutralize his powers?"

"I don't know. There might be something in the records. My mother told me about a Jimothy Clavish that was immortal and passed away as an example power aren't infallible. I remember the message but not the details."

For all he knows it could be the same one.

"I doubt the records are up to date, especially if they think he's dead," she pointed out softly with a shake of her head.

"There were two at one point."

Taner clarifies.

"Some inter-dimensional hitchhiking kind of thing."

She didn't want to try to figure that one out. Not right then, with how distracted she was.

"I'm going to meet with the Senior Agent Jack assigned to the mission. See if we can get things figured out. I need to find Enya, too," whoever the fuck that was.

"Then we can all meet, get it figured out, and get done with it."

"Alright then. I'll catch up with you later then."

He might have to pull those files in the meantime.

She waved and left him alone.
