Elysium positioned the chair so she could sit up. "Eric... I'm a Williams, of course I went down kicking and screaming...." She said, smiling. She listened, as he mentioned he would be going to his home country of Sweden. She was disappointed, as she did want to get to know him better, but she would never let it show.
"I'll be fine...." She said, smiling. "You have business to take care of, and so do I..." She said, flashing him a smile. "But.... I do expect a call every once in a while...." She said.

Eric smiled at the young Williams, he was surprised by her comment as if she was expecting him not to call her.
"How could I ever forget about calling you? You'll get your calls, don't worry about that, hehe.." Eric responded. There was a small space of silence that crept over them, but Eric being himself decided that he would take the honor of breaking it.
"It's...going to be a little.. different going back home to Sweden. I haven't been back there in years." Eric said fiddling with his thumbs, he was nervous, something that is an odd trait for him to have.

Elysium smiled a little, crossing her arms. "I'm sure it'll be just fine..." She tilted her head. "It'll all hit you when you return..." She had looked in the mirror. The swelling in her eyes had gone down since she got some rest. "Sucks, I have to miss out on the tournament because of my leg..." She ran her fingers through her blonde hair. She lifted the blanket, and quickly laid it back over her leg.
Her eyes watered a little. "I could have died today..." She said. She looked at Eric. "If Gina didn't find me, I could be dead..." She crossed her arms. "That hasn't occurred to me in a long time..." She said, staring off into space.
She looked at him. "Only once before, actually..." She said.

As Chris and Eric attended to Elysium, Madison walked through the halls of the hospital. She knew Lian needed rest, and that Lillian was still unconscious, but Madison knew it was time to face her son's killer. She pressed her hand against the cold door, pushing it open. Her blue eye glinted at the sight of Lillian laying there, helpless. She was glad that Lian did not succeed in killing her, though. Madison wanted to be the smoking gun for this woman.
She walked to the bed, her heels clicking on the linoleum floor. She crossed her arms gently, looking over her.
"Killing you this way would be too easy..." She spoke walking around the bed. "Not only are you completely defenseless... but your pathetic siblings are running around... making a mess of themselves..." She leaned against the wall, smiling a little. "Imagine how much easier it would have been for them, if they knew that it was all me..." She laughed a little. "But again... too easy..." She leaned down, "But rest assured. I wish them no harm, it is only you that I'm after..." She tilted her head a little, "Well... I can't make any promises for Nina... Lian seems intent on her death being slow and agonizing... And why shouldn't she...?"
Madison stood straight. "She did kill her father, after all... It's kind of poetic, if you really think about it..."
She lightly clapped her hands together. "So... heal, rest up... A secret between you and I..." She smiled. "I'll be holding a tournament... In Heihachi's stead. The plans are being put together now, but.... you will be there... and you will die... You will die like any assassin should..." Madison then left the room, ready for her revenge...

Eric looked over at the younger Williams as he went over to comfort her, he hated that she was in this position and what made it worse was the fact that he couldn't help her out of it.
He held her close, stroking the locks of her blonde hair. He could've lost a friend today, Eric was just relived that the outcome was completely different.
"I understand.." He said before releasing his hug, "But the important thing now is, you're safe. And you're--" His sentence was cut off by the alarm on his phone.
It was a text. By an unknown number that wasn't familiar to Eric at all. Looking at the message, Eric raised a brow. Whoever messaged him, must've had it out for him, given the message on his phone it was best that he'd get to the bottom of it.
He excused himself from Elysium's room, rushing out to dial the mysterious number...
---
Marcella heard the incident with Ely and rushed over as fast as she could, upon reaching the receptionist and asking about the whereabouts of Elysium, she hurried to her room where she was located.
Marcella was surprised to see Eric, rushing out of the room, he looked puzzled which made Marcella worry, but she would get back to him later.
She knocked before opening the door, walking into the room, "You and loverboy had an argument?" Marcella said to Elysium jokingly...

Elysium smiled as Eric stroked her hair. He spoke, but then stopped. He then left in a sudden hurry. She looked on in concern, as he walked out side. She sighed, laying back. Her eyes turned to the door when she heard a knock. She then smiled to see her step mother enter the room, "Marcella..." She said. Elysium chuckled. "No, he... He got a call, and left in a hurry..." She paused. "I hope he's okay..." She said.
"If you're looking for dad, he I think he went to the kitchen to find some pudding...." She laughed a little. "Are you two doing better...? She asked. Since Grandmother died, you two have been in a rocky place..." She said. "I'd hate to lose you because he can be an ass...." She said, grinning.

Marcella shook her head when Ely mentioned the whereabouts of her father, he always had a thing for pudding. He always asked her to buy some whenever they would go grocery shopping.
"Your father and his pudding, haha! I'm telling you he would marry that stuff if he wanted to."
She walked over to Elysium to give her a light hug, "How you holding up? Everything okay?"

Ely took a deep breath, "I'm managing. My grandmother was never too emotional about death. She grieved my grandfather, but she never talked about it. Every time I would ask her about it, she would look at me and say 'Elysium, I would never dare to cry in front of another living soul. For if you let them see you, they can exploit you'." She sighed. "I never really understood it, I still don't... But... She wouldn't want me to cry about it. She would want me to live my life, and keep going..." She said. "Now, if Aunt Lilli could just wake up, and Aunt Anna get found, and we can all go back to being a crazy dysfunctional family, that'd be great!" She said, laughing a little.
She took Marcella's hand. "I'm glad you're here..." She said.

Marcella listened to Ely explain her story, and it made her sad. Of course she knew that Elysium grew up differently than she did, coupled with different morals, but, it didn't seem fair for Ely to hold emotions in.
Marcella placed Elysium's head on her shoulder, as she ran her fingers through the locks of her step daughter's blonde hair, "Ely. I want you to know something, I understand your grandmother's words, believe me I do, but after a while you're going to get tired of holding in emotions and eventually, they're going to have to go somewhere."
Marcella cupped Elysium's face, gently so that she could see each other eye to eye, "Don't bottle in emotions. I did that for a long time, love. In fact, it took a toll on your father and I at the beginning of our relationship even before Cel was born. People are not here to exploit you, surround yourself with the right people, and you will have nothing to worry about. It's okay to cry, and it's okay to show emotion. You are human, it's what you were made to do."
The remark that Ely made, caused Marcella to smile, she kissed her step daughter's forehead in response, "Of course, I am always here for you Ely.."

Elysium could only smile. She shied away a little, taking her stepmother's hands into hers. "Yes... You are right..." She said, her voice raspy. "Thankyou..." Elysium then turned to the door when it opened. "Elysium!" It was Chris, he looked happy. He sat down at Elysium's side.
"What's going on, daddy...?" She asked.
He looked at her, "...Lillian..." He smiled, beaming. "She's finally awake..." A nurse soon came in with a wheelchair. "Would you like to come see her..?" He asked. Elysium nodded, "Yes...!" Chris helped his daughter into the wheelchair, and he turned to Marcella.
"Everything is finally turning around..." He said to his wife. He pulled her close, smiling.

Marcella smiled once Christopher held her close, she was glad to hear that her sister in law was awake and doing much better. Marcella placed her head on her husband's shoulder, nuzzling the crook of his neck.
"I told you that everything will be alright, Chris. There was no need to worry about your sister, she's a very strong woman." She said before pulling away, and giving her husband a quick kiss to his lips.

Nina quickly arrived at the hospital after quitting the Mishima Zaibatsu. She had more important things to handle. One of them, is visiting Lillian. And also Elysium as well as Chris. They all had to work together and take down Lian. Hopefully, she can follow up with that white cop who happens to share the same name as Lei.
Upon seeing Lillian was awake, Nina was relieved.

Lilian was sitting up in her bed, when Nina came in. She gave a soft smile. "Well..." She paused. "You're the last person I expected to see..." She said, patting the edge of her bed signaling Nina to come sit next to her. "I'm glad you're here though... I have something most terrible to reveal.." She sighed, "Just have to wait for Christopher and Elysium..." She said. She turned to Nina, smiling a little, tucking her raven hair behind her ear.
"Are you okay..?" She asked.
Soon, though, Elysium was rolled in by Christopher. Marcella joined them aswell. Lillian smiled a little, while Elysium took her hand. "I'm so glad you're okay..." She said. Lillian nodded, "Likewise... Christopher filled me in on all the details..." She sighed. Chris gave a small smile to Nina, placing a hand on her shoulder. "As some of you may have already found out..." She gave a look to Nina, "Anna is fine, atleast as fine as she can be... She had some problems with the cryosleep, but... she's handling it. She is entrusting we can handle the situation, and bring our father's killer to justice..."
Christopher nodded. "Good to know.." He was glad to hear Anna was alive, and handling her illness.
"While I was comatose, I could hear everything..." She paused. "I had a visitor... The woman credited herself as the person behind the curtain, using this girl to gain revenge on me... The woman didn't name herself, but... I know who she is..." She turned to Elysium, "Michael's mother..."

"I kind of left the Zaibatsu, since I have more important things to resolve." Nina said as she took a seat next to Lillian.
Once Chris, Marcella, and Elysium arrived, Nina was glad to see that she had perfect timing.
"As some of you may have already found out... Anna is fine, atleast as fine as she can be... She had some problems with the cryosleep, but... she's handling it. She is entrusting we can handle the situation, and bring our father's killer to justice..."
"I think I might have to see if I have any complications from cryosleep as well. But right now, I feel fine."
"While I was comatose, I could hear everything... I had a visitor... The woman credited herself as the person behind the curtain, using this girl to gain revenge on me... The woman didn't name herself, but... I know who she is..."
"And I know who killed our Father. Lana Lei. I thought I had killed her during my mission to investigate the Kometa's secret weapon. I suppose she survived and that girl, Lian... is her daughter." Nina started. "However, Lana is dead. She killed herself while trying to escape arrest." Nina had done some research on her nemesis. "Now, the question is, why is this woman using Lian to kill us off one-by-one?"
Nina then wondered. This couldn't just be all a coincidence. Lana Lei was her nemesis. Lana's daughter is also named Lei. Then there's that clumsy cop who stopped her from killing her own son, Lei Wulong. The man who made her lose her job, but they had worked out a bargain in order for her to escape arrest. Finally, this British man who also calls himself "Lei" is on the case. Is there a blood feud going on? And as far as Nina is aware, according to her research, Lei has no relatives. Maybe it's a coincidence? Perhaps the name Lei, is the Asian equivalent of Smith. Then again, Asuka Kazama is related to Jun and Jin Kazama. Lana and Lian were both Chinese. So is Lei. But that brunette cop, though. He doesn't look... Chinese. He looks Jewish? Though he did have slanted eyes.
However, Nina closed her eyes and thought for a moment. She recalled seeing that same brunette cop hanging out around Lei during the Third Tournament. She remembers watching them spar. Was he his adopted son? Protegee of sorts?
Whatever it is, the whole Lei family or whatever is more connected to this than she expected. Is this why that cop took the case? Or was it just pure coincidence that his distant relative was involved.
"Elysium, did Lian ever mention anything about any relatives of hers that I or your grandfather may have killed."
No doubt Richard Williams, her father could have made more enemies than Nina had expected. Did her father kill Lian's grandfather?

Elysium's eyes shot wide. "...Michael... Michael Grant...?!" She looked down, flashes of him fluttered through her mind. "He told me he and his mother were estranged... That she hated him!" Elysium was confused, when Chris piped in. "Who exactly is Michael...?" He asked. Lillian only looked at Elysium, staying quiet. "He's an ex, daddy... but, He disappeared... I never..." She looked at Lillian. "...You were the one who killed him."
Lillian was firm, sitting straight up. "Christopher, if you knew the things he did to her, you would have beaten me to it..." She said. Chris was silent, as there was a lot going on. He would ask his daughter about all of this later.
"...So that's why his mother wants revenge on you... That explains why this girl attacked you first..." Elysium said. Lillian nodded. The two turned to Nina, when she spoke.
"So, we finally have a name to the face..." Chris said.
When Nina asked Elysium about any victims of Richard or Nina, Elysium nodded. "She said that 'My Aunt' killed her father, and actually... that Grandmother killed her great Uncle..." She said. "So, Either you, Aunt Anna, or Aunt Lilli killed her father..."
