Right Here

Gavin's Ward within the Ward has become a focal point for the Shade's assault. While he's grateful for that on one hand, because it means that those outside of it are likely safer, it is putting him under incredible strain that threatens to destroy him. Damien and Huxley are on the run, trying to reach a defendable position with a group of survivors. A wave of Shades descends on them, and Huxley and Damien order the others to run while they try to fight them off and buy time. The Shades avoid their attacks and join with a flanking group that come together to wipe out all the remaining survivors that had been with the Elementals, despite their best efforts. Damien and Huxley, alone again and out of options, continue toward the training grounds. Vincent, "Lovely", and Sam find David and Asher's safe zone. Shaw Alpha and Solaire Prince meet for the first time. Sam, Vincent, and "Lovely" commit themselves to the defense of the survivors, for which David is grateful. The situation has continued to grow worse, with almost constant assault by Shades. David is dismissive of his own injuries, but hours of constant fighting have taken a terrible toll on him. Nate Wexler, a Department officer, arrives at the control booth and informs Jett that the Ward is weakening. He asks if they are cleared to seek help from non-Department demons, but amid fears that the Chorus has been organizing attacks on Department facilities, the idea is rejected. Damien and Huxley reach the observation tower of the training grounds, but find it occupied by a Water Elemental who uses his powers to push them away, refusing to help them or share the space. Damien realizes that it's Kody and storms into the tower against Huxley's objections and confronts him. Kody admits to using his powers to secure the spot only for himself, pushing away other survivors and leaving them at the Shades' mercy. Disgusted, Damien attacks Kody until Huxley is finally able to drag him off the other man and back out onto the field. Damien fully breaks down under the strain of the horrific losses they've witnessed. Huxley manages to steady him, insisting that he's here and won't leave Damien. They head in the direction of the sounds of resistance, not knowing that it's in fact David and Asher's safe zone. Milo tells "Sweetheart" his plan to disrupt the Warder's magic so that the Ward will fall, at which point the assembled might of D.A.M.N. and Dahlia can defeat the Shades. "Sweetheart" agrees to help.
