Dave was releaved when he heard what Ellie said to him and was amused of her statements regarding the Navy.
"Oh hahaa... indeed, Navy suffers from the great "Liberty paranoia" syndrome as I call it, and why uptight.. well... I never talked to a beautiful women like you from almost 9 years... *he then looked a bit upset* .. since .. well *he took Ellie's hand* ... I've lost...
But the moment was disturbed by the HoloComm's transmission, apparently was Jack. When he heard what he had to say to Dave, regarding his severe injuries and the huge bounty on his head, he knew that he will go for good almost... and he will be difficult to trace, but Dave knew where to find him. He was rather shocked, and when the transmission ended.. he dropped the device on the sofa... and looked at Ellie with a serious look, he took the necklace and he watched for some seconds the shiny "CERBERUS" insignia, then moved his look again to Morrigan and Michal... the he returned to Ellie.
"I guess... here it all starts..."
He stood and looked into her eyes, then he continued...
"It's very incredible how this moment arrived when you gave me the necklace... like I need to have this emblem to show that I now lead a great and powerful faction... I am unique among the others... I think its more powerful than I can even imagine."
He then looked to Ellie with a glare of trust and with a beautiful smile...
