Holliday wasted no time at all, he walked straight up to Vander and asked to talk, Vander could tell the kid was serious about the talk he wanted so he told Holliday to help him close for a little bit so they could have some privacy.

Vi and the others were probably at their hideout and fun zone, normally Holliday would have joined them but didn't because of the questions he needed answers too.

"So kid, what was it you needed to talk about?"

Holliday looked towards his father figure and stayed silent until finally opening his mouth..........

Caitlyn was rather heartbroken at the current situation, the person she closely regarded as her best friend was currently expended from the Academy due to illegal research, her parents banned her from seeing him again

There was one person who helped her through these emotions though, and that was her adopted sister Catherine, she had been there for Caitlyn all her life.

"Thanks for cheering me up Catherine, I'm glad to have a sister like you around." The young Caitlyn said smiling a bit

"I'm glad I can be there for you Caitlyn," Catherine said smiling back

Catherine couldn't wait to get her brother to come Topside, she so much wanted for Caitlyn and Holliday to meet, she felt like they could even be the best of friends to one another!

But, the question remains: will that dream come to fruition? After all Holliday is one of the kids that the Enforcers are after

"I ran into a man yesterday, coming back." Was what Holliday said after his long pause of silence

"And what about this man got you so riled?" Vander asked the kid in front of him

"Everything about him, but the curious part was that he seemed to recognize me, said I looked like an 'old friend' of his."

Vander was suspicious at that, very few people knew Holliday was originally from the Lanes

"Who that friend was, it was my father wasn't it?" Holliday asked

"Alright, you want a story? Well listen up." Vander said

"Ages ago, years before you or Vi were even born, there were four kids who thought very much like you, Vi, and Powder."

Vander, a 'Holliday' with blonde hair and green eyes, a skinnier kid with brown hair, and a girl with purple hair and dull gold eyes could be seen together on many adventures in the Lanes

They used to play pretend when they were really little of a time when the Lanes, the Undercity, was risen into the world as its very own nation, they had fun, even if they struggled to survive day after day.

Those days came to an end when the girl with the purple hair and 'Holliday' left behind the Lanes and joined the high society of Piltover.

"Hey kid I understand this is a lot to take in but, I found you with your mom that day, I knew instantly you were Holliday and Natalie's kid because of your hair and eyes, I knew at that moment what had happened." Vander sighed before asking

"Getting back to the topic of the man, did he have anything or say anything that stood out to you?"

"His left eye was messed up, look like it bleed a lot and got infected but he somehow survived it, and there was something he did say that was off."

"And what was that?" Vander asked

"He told me to go home, to go back to Zaun."

Vander visibly grimaced at hearing the word Zaun, he knew instantly who it was that had talked to Holliday, stirring the seeds of discontent just like back then.......
