> She turned to the Tribunal "As the session has started I asked him to
retrieve my material. I also ask that my Precept be present during this
session." The members of the tribunal all nodded their consent and Su Lin
confirmed it. "Very well," he said. "We shall wait until you are
prepared."

Upon his arrival on the scene Derek was shocked. This shock very quickly
turned to anger. Such anger, in fact, that he was not able to speak. The
fury he felt was written on his face and fire shot from his eyes. Jaw
tight, shoulders straight and a vein throbbing slightly in his temple, Derek
entered the room.
They would consent to him being there? What was this? They'd obviously
been planning to go about this without him and that in itself was
unexceptable. What infuriated him more, than this was that it was trusted
colleagues who had done this. Some of whom, he even considered friends. It
was clear, by the look on his face that Derek was not leaving, no matter
what they decided to "allow."
He dragged a chair from the side of the room and placed it beside Julia's,
taking a seat and glaring about the room. His furious gaze stopping on
Sloan, whom he really wanted to punch and he might just do it...later.
