"You guys are getting along now?" Melanie asked

"Not quite. But for the moment i'm not trying to kill him. We'll see how it turns out" Kanna said, running a hand through her hair. The woman was tired. She needed some alcohol and a decent meal.

She then looked back to Melanie as she decided to rush off with Galv. "HEY! I didn't say she could go with you!"

Melanie pretended she couldn't hear her mother, taking Galv's hand and rushing down the hallway. She was grinning, probably showing the most happiness she had since the games started.

[...]

"What makes you think you can teach me something about surviving. I've done it pretty well myself my whole life." Chloe said, ruffling her hair as she looked to the boy.

[...]

"You don't have to kill a-anyone" Sarai said softly, moving forward and looking up at the boy. "I don't t-think you w-want to either. I wish y-you would r-r-recon-con-consider..."

Sarai sighed, taking a set on a tree stump and staring down at her lap. "I.....I want to start over C-Connor...W-With you..I hope."

Hallways

Galv laughed as he and Melanie rushed off, ignoring Kanna as they hurried towards the cafeteria.

Once they were far enough away from Kanna, Galv slowed down, smiling towards Melanie.

“You look very pretty, you know,” Galv said to Melanie, “I was worried sick about you after I got captured. I'm...glad you also still feel the same way about me...”

Outside

“I've faced Deathclaws, outran Cazadores, survived off of what my dad and I could hunt, seen people die in front of my face when they thought they were finally safe,” Edda said flatly to Chloe, “I've dodged Raiders and junkies, snuck through the territory of guys who make the Enclave seem almost reasonable.”

He smirked now, “So yah, I think I could teach you a little something.”

"Thank you" Melanie said, looking around a moment before placing a quick kiss on his lips. Her own lips were still rather cold, as were her hands. "I was worried about you too....When you were there, what happened to you? Did they treat you okay?"

She didn't understand that this question was probably rather loaded.

[Hallways]

“Oh relax.” Rica said, walking closer to Kanna. “They’ll be fine. They spent plenty of time together in the Hunger Games. Now why don’t you just relax? We need to talk anyway.”

His voice suddenly became a bit more serious.

[Outside]

Connor frowned to Sarai. He walked over and sat down next to her, under the tree. He sighed and leaned against her for a moment.

“… I’d like that Sarai.” Connor said quietly to her. “I’d like to start over with you… but before I can have a new life, I have to make things right for my parent’s memory.”

[Enclave Capitol Building]

Autumn’s eyes narrowed. He clenched his fist, and his first instinct was to attack… but even he wasn’t that stupid or hotheaded.

“Ah, but you ARE responsible for those things, Don. You’ve always tied my hands when it comes to the Games, and that was your facility. I’ll admit you’re great at blaming me for your screw ups, but that’s not going to last forever.”

He shook his head.

“Fine, send your security forces… but this is my mission. They’ll do things my way. You might be liked better than I am, but I have enough supporters in the Senate that you can’t get rid of me.”

Kanna frowned as Rica's tone changed a bit. She hesitated for a moment before giving a slight nod. "Fine, let's go" she said, heading down the hall and leaving her eldest son.

Jason just sighed. He supposed he should go find Erin. He was a bit worried leaving her so long.

[...]

"Do you r-really think t-this is what y-your parents w-want?" Sarai mumbled, picking at the hem of her tunic. "Th-They w-wanted you to b-be happy I think...."

Rica led Kanna down one of the hallways and towards the cafeteria area. He opened the door for her, but said nothing as they walked in.

Although he was sure it wasn’t Kanna’s kind of scene, the Rebels didn’t really have private dining, so if they were going to eat it would have to be here.

“… We need to talk, Kanna. About our daughter.” Rica said bluntly.

[…]

Connor frowned. He knew that Sarai had a point. His parents were pacifistic, like he was. They despised violence and had dedicated their life to being doctors… they had even helped Peacekeepers who were injured.

“… You’re right.” Connor sighed, as he leaned against her. “But… what am I supposed to do, Sarai? Autumn killed them…”

Kanna frowned, grabbing a glass of water and bowl of some kind of stew (hardly the elegant meals she was used to) and taking a seat in front of Rica. She didn't like when the man became serious about things. He was usually such an arrogant d-bag. "What about her?" she asked casually, taking a bite of the stew...And shuddering. "Ugh....Terrible"

[...]

"Don't d-do a-anything. B-Be the big-bigger man" Sarai told him "S-Show him y-your better t-than r-revenge"

Sarai took his hand, and gave it a small squeeze. "F-Focus on something e-else...Some...Someone e-else"

Rica didn’t bother getting any food. He wasn’t in the mood, and he’d rather have less things around for Kanna to throw at him.

“We’re in a rebel base, underground. You should be glad we have any food at all.” Rica chuckled softly, as he leaned back against the chair. His eyes stayed on her the whole time.

“… We need to talk about Melanie.” Rica frowned. “And my place in her life.”

[…]

Connor sighed. As she took his hand, Connor tried to give a smile. He looked to her.

“… I’d like to focus on you, Sarai… I want to forget about the Games, and about Autumn, and about everything else that happened…”

Connor leaned against Sarai, pulling her close with his arm around him. “Maybe… maybe I can try.”

Galv smiled as Melanie kissed him, returning it, holding her hands tightly. She did feel cold, but he didn't mind, he also felt like he was too warm...They could balance each other out.

Then Melanie asked about what had happened to him, and he sighed slightly, frowning.

“The first few days...wasn't very good. They didn't feed me, threw me in a cold dark cell...” Galv said, “Just checked on me to make sure I didn't die...then...”

Galv paused. Rica had said he shouldn't give it any mind...but why had he done that?

“Well...the President...Gallic...he showed up. Ordered me out of the cell, had me cleaned up, checked over by a doctor to make sure I was okay. Then he made sure I had food, talked to me...He...he said he wanted to end the Games too...” Galv said, “We only talked the one time though, then he had me put in a different cell...It was nicer then the first one, but still a cell...”

Jason's Room

Erin was in Jason's room, fidgeting a little. She had considered going with him to welcome back the Rebels, but she was scared, didn't really want to run into other people...especially Kanna...

Outside

“I've faced Deathclaws, outran Cazadores, survived off of what my dad and I could hunt, seen people die in front of my face when they thought they were finally safe,” Edda said flatly to Chloe, “I've dodged Raiders and junkies, snuck through the territory of guys who make the Enclave seem almost reasonable.”

He smirked now, “So yah, I think I could teach you a little something.”

-Enclave Capitol Building-

“I apologize if I assumed you could handle watching children, Autumn,” Gallic said, holding his hands out, “And it may have been my facility, but your men were guarding it.”

He sighed, shaking his head now, “As it is, I have other things to attend to, as I'm sure you will as well. Douglas here will make sure to answer any further questions that you have.”

Gallic turned, leaving the room now, leaving Walter and the red haired girl who was still standing a little behind him.

“Walter Douglas, reporting for duty, sir,” Walter said to Autumn, “This is my administrative assistant, Lily...”

Dun dun dunnnnnnnnnnnnn.

Melanie paused as Galv explained his situation while being held captive. She couldn't imagine someone being thrown in a cell and pretty much forgotten about...The Hunger Games had been the scariest experience of her life...But now she was sure he had been through worse.

“Well...the President...Gallic...he showed up. Ordered me out of the cell, had me cleaned up, checked over by a doctor to make sure I was okay. Then he made sure I had food, talked to me...He...he said he wanted to end the Games too...” Galv said, “We only talked the one time though, then he had me put in a different cell...It was nicer then the first one, but still a cell...”

Back in the Capital Melanie had been taught that President Gallic was pretty much a saint. He was the reason why the country was so prosperous....Why everyone had so much....It only took fighting in the games to know how wrong they were...But there was a small bit of happiness within her when Galv told her that Gallic treated him well. Like perhaps not everything they were taught as children was a lie.

"So the President was kind to you?" Melanie said with a small smile, leaning in and kissing him "I'm glad....But why did they want you there in the first place..."

[...]

"I'm guessing you actually want to be in her life then?" Kanna half-asked and half-assumed. "Do you think that's what she wants? Though I guess you guys now have something in common...."

[...]

"Erin....You awake?" Jason asked, stepping into the room and looking towards the bed. He had left her an hour or so ago, not wanting to wake the girl...She looked troubled, like she needed some sleep.

[...]

"I...I'd like that...." Sarai said quietly, clutching his arm tightly and closing her eyes for a moment. She took the moment to relax and not think about everything was going to happen. She knew Connor's mind was probably not set definitely...

"Do you think I-I could may-maybe watch n-next time y-you heal s-someone?" Sarai asked carefully, unsure if that was a weird request "Or m-maybe help?"

Connor paused as Sarai asked her question. He shrugged his shoulders.

“You can watch next time… there’s not much you can do to help, but…” Connor paused, and smiled a little looking over to her. “If you want to learn medicine, I can teach you…”

[Enclave Capitol Building]

Autumn was fuming angry. He turned to look at Walter and Lily and glared at them.

“Listen up, because I don’t repeat myself. I don’t care if you work for President Gallic. You will not interfere in my unit’s progress. As long as you understand that, we’ll get along just fine.”

“You can watch next time… there’s not much you can do to help, but…”

Sarai instantly looked down, obviously embarased at her dumb question. "I-I'm s-s-sorry I-I should k-know that...But I c-can get y-y-you water or b-bandages or a-anything else-"

Because Sarai was a great slave servant whatever...

“If you want to learn medicine, I can teach you…”

Sarai looked up, nodding silently. She obviously was talking too much already.

[...]

"I'm guessing you actually want to be in her life then?" Kanna half-asked and half-assumed. "Do you think that's what she wants? Though I guess you guys now have something in common...."

Connor could tell Sarai was feeling a little awkward. He put his arm around her.

“I’d like to teach you, Sarai. I really would… that would be nice, and I think you could help a lot of people that way!”

Connor paused, thinking about how his parents had been doctors together… maybe teaching Sarai to help people like that, if she wanted to learn, would be a better tribute to their legacy than him trying to kill Autumn.

[…]

“Of course I want to be in her life.” Rica narrowed his eyes. “And I am in her life, now. I couldn’t leave now even if I wanted to.”

Though I guess you guys now have something in common...."

“Unfortunately.” Rica sighed. “I can’t stand the fact, but if it wasn’t for those damn Games, I’d never have known about her… but I wish she never experienced them.”

Sarai expression quickly turned from embarrassment to excitement as she silently nodded vigorously. She wanted to be able to help Connor in any way she could...This seemed like the best way...

And Sarai had always wanted to do something good with her life. As an Avox she didn't have many prospects but now she was free and could actually do something other than serve. She wanted to help people again, just in a different way than before.

[...]

"It's alright, Melanie's a strong girl. Stronger than I ever gave her credit for. She'll be fine with time" Kanna said, trying another sip of stew before shuddering and totally pushing it away. "Though you'll help her right...So she doesn't turn out like you?"

....She actually didn't mean that as an insult (totally). She remembered the short time she lived with Samuel. Even someone as level headed as he managed to have some pretty intense nightmares thanks to those games....Kanna wondered if Melanie would be able to handle something like that even with help....Not to mention she was bred from two chronic alcoholics with tempers. The poor girl was dooooooomed.

Connor smiled, as Sarai nodded excitedly. Maybe he HAD found something that would be better than revenge… and it would be a good way of helping the fellow rebels. He stood up suddenly and extended his hand to Sarai.

“Come on! Let’s go down to the infirmary and I’ll show you some things.” He said, and he sounded… happy.

[…]

Rica sighed a bit, and then looked up to her with the slightest of grins on his face.

“I don’t want her to end up like me anymore than you do. I’m a miserable, middle-aged alcoholic who, up until I learned about Melanie, spent all of my time lounging around a filthy house and slept on a pile of empty scotch bottles.”

There were prostitutes, too, but Rica (for some reason) decided not to mention that to Kanna. He probably paid extra for them to dress up like Kanna and throw vodka bottles at him.

“I’ll do what I can to help her.” Rica promised sincerely.
