Dr. Klein’s screens turned towards Lavan. The mouth on the screen curved into a frown.

“Oh good… a meatbag with attitude… just what we need. I suppose those ‘zombies’ you refer to are the Lobotomites. Experiments… failed, experiments mind you. There’s not much use for meatbags normally except experimentation.”

The brain floated forward. “This is the splendor of Big Mountain! The greatest scientific Think Tank in the world! You see… in the days before the Flare, we were the world’s greatest scientific minds! Then that stupid Flare hit and we were trapped here.”

Klein laughed. “We’ve survived for all these years by shedding our ridiculous human bodies and becoming more. However, now a group of you… limb-havers… have shown up here and are stealing all of our technology. So I’ll ask you again… are you part of that group?”

Nanami’s eyes widened. “No. Describe this group.”

“All you meatbags look alike. But they’re wearing Power Armor and matching uniforms.”

“… The Enclave…” Nanami growled. “Gallic’s got his forces here.”

Lavan deadpannedr right back at the screens.

"Oh look. A computer with a smart mouth. Can we dispense with the name-calling already, or should I be creative in ways I can compare you to other things that you don't want to be compared to?"

As this... Self-proclaimed Klein revealed that Gallic's forces were here, Lavan's face split into an almost maniacal grin, only to be muted a second later as he regained control over his face. Honestly speaking, he was loving the action, and having been told that there would be even MORE action where that came from made him grin like a loony.

Too bad neither of his companions would share his sentiments.

"Nanami, by now I am honestly not going to be surprised if Gallic has somehow managed to get the Enclave do build a colony on the moon. He's got his slimy little Gally-fingers in every pie there is and more. Which, in turn, means he can be fought from every angle, every direction and every turn. And therefore, annoyed from the same locations. So if Gallic has some people here, we're probably going to find them, fry them, get what we want and move on."

He turned back to the screens.

"So, jar-face, where did the walking tin cans go?"

Nanami turned on Lavan and her eyes narrowed dangerously. On her face was an ice cold expression, as frigid and unforgiving as the tundra.

“The more angles Gallic has, the harder it will be to fight him. It means the more we have to destroy. The more we have to dismantle. And while we waste our time battling away at his operations on the outside, he’s busy creating ten new ones for every one we stop. So tell me, since you seem so damn happy about this, how are we EVER supposed to catch up?”

Nanami clenched her fist. As tired and injured as she was, the subject of Gallic got her adrenaline pumping and her blood boiling hotter than even Lavan could imagine.

Klein ignored them both. “They’re all over the damn plan! They’ve stolen our state of the art Stealth Suit… as well as our Sonic Emitter. I believe now they’re in the old aerospace lab, don’t know what for…”

Lavan wagged his finger at Nanami.

"We don't NEED to catch up. All it takes ien ONE failed op on his end, and he's already made that failure. With the games broken under him, he's got dozens of other plans, sure, but time is something that even he doesn't have a lot of. In the end, all it takes is a mistake, and even the greatest tyrant can be toppled. He's made his. He's made you an enemy, made the rebellion an enemy, made ME an enemy, and is currently alienating a large fraction of the population. It's starting to crumble around him, and he's not NEARLY in as strong of a position as he thinks. It's why he's grasping at straws..."

He moved the hand that was wagging its finger to point around him.

"Like this place."

Turning to Klein again, the redhead smirked.

"Oh, please. If you are scientists, then playing dumb isn't fitting for you. They've stolen a stealth suit, which means they want it, most likely with their resources to reverse-engineer it. Whatever the Sonic Emitter is, they need it for something, and since you know what you use it for, then that answers your question. And lastly, you've already answered where they are, and you know what they can find in the old Aerospace Lab. That by itself should tell you why they are there. Now, you can tell us, or I can walk out of here and start blowing things up. Since you're this darn protective of the place, helping us get rid of those tin-can soldiers is probably in your best interest right now."

“You’re forgetting something… Gallic has an army. It’s the most powerful army on the planet. They have access to more old world technology than anyone else… and no matter what that old woman has to say, the NCR is going to be more interested in their own goals than our’s. They’ll fight against Gallic, but if it seems like we’re losing they’ll cut us loose and you know it.”

She sighed and leaned back, closing her eyes. “I wouldn’t count him out yet…”

As for Klein, the brain seemed to lower its tone a bit. “How should I know what flesh things like you want? I don’t care. I want to finish my research. Everyone at Big Mountain does. However… I will make you a deal.”

Klein’s mouth screen became a grin. “You get rid of them and recover our stolen technology… and we will share the fantastic secrets of Big Mountain with you!”

Lavan just shook his head, deciding that no argument would drag Nanami out of her self-imposed gloom at the moment. Gallic had it coming, The Rebellion WILL win, And that's all Lavan needed to know and believe. In the end, when belief was a reality...

Well, there was some time before that. In the meantime, he needed to deal with this idiot that seemed to not be thinking in the right direction.

"I'm surprised. What if they're at the lab to STEAL whatever is inside, take it for their own, or maybe... Use it against you to steal whatever research you are doing NOW? And make you work for them in the process? Would you be all right with that? We'll help you, sure. I'm all for kicking some Enclave butt. I DO, however, like to know what I'm diving into, especially if you were... I dunno... Building some sort of SUPERWEAPON in that lab?"

“Do not presume to match wits against me, flesh!” Klein snapped at Lavan. The floating brain was quite stubborn. It floated towards Lavan, moving its eye screens up and down.

“I… the things in the aerodynamics lab… well, those are… there are many things there! A great many things… that… are not quite things I had been focusing on lately…”

“You forgot.” Nanami interrupted.

“Silence!” Klein demanded. “I did not forget! I just have… used my memory for more pressing matters.”

Big MT: Dome

Melanie jumped as the strange machine addressed them, her grip tightening on Galv for a moment before relaxing a bit. Whatever this thing was it didn't want them dead....At least not right away.

Of course Lavan was much less timid when it came to speaking, Melanie watched quietly as he did. He was....Direct. So was Nanami.

“All you meatbags look alike. But they’re wearing Power Armor and matching uniforms.”

Melanie's eyes widened

“You get rid of them and recover our stolen technology… and we will share the fantastic secrets of Big Mountain with you!”

They didn't really have much of a choice all thing considered. Melanie nodded.

Safe House

Sarai nodded, leaning in and kissing Connor. She allowed herself to linger there for a moment until a harsh knock on the door caused the girl to jump.

"Are you two done doing bad things in there?" Chloe called out, leaning on the door. "I don't hear anything, must mean you two are pretty busy!"

Instantly Sarai's face went red, the girl moving back and going over to the mirror to make sure she looked decent after her little emotional breakdown.

"Miho hurry up with her! We have more important things to do than wait for your baby-making escapades to be done!"

Sarai choaked on air.

Nanami let out a sigh and leaned against the wall. “… Fine. We’ll deal with Gallic’s men… but first we need some things. Supplies. Food, medicine, weaponry… anything you can give us will increase our chances of victory, which means giving you what you want.”

Klein seemed to think about this for several seconds. “Hmm… yes, I suppose that DOES make some sense… very well. Go back out the way you came and take the door labeled ‘The Sink’. It will take you to a room filled with all those things you flesh piles need to survive.”

[Safe House]

Connor’s face turned decisively red and he wanted to groan and bury it in his arms. Chloe was… being Chloe. Automatically assuming the absolute worst and throwing in plenty of innuendo… and being completely blunt about it.

“Shuddap Chloe!” Connor yelled through the door. By now he had gotten pretty used to the girl. After everything that had happened, he didn’t feel quite as awkward about things as Sarai did.

He walked over and pushed open the door.

-Safe House-

“What makes you think you need my permission to?” Edda asked Chloe idly, raising an eyebrow, “I don't think I could stop you if I wanted to.”

He followed after her as they went to check on Sarai and Connor, laughing silently a bit at her words, then paused, thinking slightly.

“You know, the population of Panem is declining,” Edda said idly, smirking now towards Connor as he opened the door, “So, you know... Civic duty.”

-Big MT-

Think Tank

“Enclave? What does a country have to do with this? The only country that matters is the United States!” another one of the floating brains in tanks said, floating forward now, Borous.

“Bah! I never liked the aerospace place! Cyberdogs, that's where it's at,” Borous continued, “Like Gabe... He was a good dog.”

Galv frowned a little, thinking himself, “Maybe some kind of ship? Something better then a vertibird to use? Maybe that's where Gallic is at?”

“Gallic? You keep mentioning that person. Who is he?” another Think Tank, Dr. 0 asked, floating a bit towards them, “And why does that name sound familiar?”

Aerospace Division

“Are you sure this is what President Gallic wants? It... doesn't seem very important... sir,” one of the soldiers asked, looking towards Walter.

“It's precisely what he wants. I don't know why... But he said it's the most important thing here...” Walter said. “So we need to get to the top of this tower, and get the equipment he wants...”

Safe House

Chloe stumbled back a bit when the door opened since she was leaning against it. Instantly she caught herself, never missing a beat and offering Connor a grin as she peeked in the bathroom.

"Well it's about time! I thought I was gonna have to call in the calvary! Did you have fun?"

"W-We didn't do anything" Sarai said, walking past the girl and trying not to look as embarrassed as she really was.

"Awww you're no fun, gotta put that new tounge to good use!"

You know, the population of Panem is declining, so, you know... Civic duty.”

Chloe laughed out loud, leaning on Edda "He said it not me"

Poor Sarai couldn't turn more red. She stared down at her shoes.

Chloe seemed to notice and moved forward. "Oh relax, we're just playing. We gotta get you a backbone girlie"

Think Tank

“… You guys have been in here for a while, haven’t you?” Nanami raised an eyebrow. She knew that the United States had been a country long ago, before the Flare. The Enclave claimed to be the remains of the United States government, although Nanami suspected that was just propaganda dreamed up by its original founders.

Nanami turned her attention towards Dr. 0. “Gallic is the President of the Enclave. He’s a dangerous man… a cruel and manipulative leader. If he’s after something here, he’ll kill you to take it.”

Aerospace Division

“… Hmph. I do wonder how the President knows so much about the inner workings of Big Mountain. It’s said no one ever returns from here alive… raises a few questions, doesn’t it, Walter?”

A tall man with dark hair, wearing a dark suit, sunglasses and an earpiece stepped forward. He was not actually part of Walter’s team, but had been sent along by Autumn.

He was Frank Horrigan, Autumn’s number two. He had his hands stuffed in his pockets and a smirk on his face.

[Safe House]

“Stop!” Connor shouted at Edda and Chloe, groaning and rubbing his neck. “Don’t we have something important to do?”

Connor was so red he felt like his face might melt.

Think Tank

“The name sounds familiar!” Dr. 0 said, turning away, “Gallic... Gallic... I'm sure I've heard it somewhere.”

Galv frowned, “Either way, it sounds like we don't have much time... We have to stop them... somehow...”

Aerospace Division

“Not really,” Walter said to Horrigan, “President Gallic has a way of getting information others find difficult. You're just use to a commander who doesn't have enough information.”

Walter would have smirked now if he was inclined to show emotions.

“As it is, how President Gallic got the information is irrelevant. We've already gotten some good tech, and we've managed to disable or turn a lot of the security,” Walter added idly.

Gallic was pretty sure they wouldn't have changed the security codes... not those in the Think Tank... They never did, after all.

-Safe House-

Edda smiled a little, but nodded, “Yah, we do... But it's good to think about other things now and then... what we want to do after. Have to have a reason for fighting, right? Just basic survival isn't always enough...”

Think Tank

“It doesn’t matter where you’ve heard it. Gallic is a cruel, insane man. He’ll kill you all if he gets the chance… but if you help me, I’ll kill him and Big Mountain will remain safe, without problems from the Enclave.” Nanami said to Dr. 0.

“Come on. We should head up to The Sink, take care of our wounds, and then head out.” Nanami suggested.

Aerospace Division

“… It must be nice to be able to simply follow orders and not wonder what our bosses are planning.” Horrigan chuckled a little, shrugging his shoulders. “I always wonder… perhaps it’s become a habit because I work under Autumn. Though it does keep me on my toes, and keep me sharp. It’s a benefit in some ways.”

[Safe House]

Connor nodded solemnly. “Basic survival was the point of the Hunger Games… but we’re not in the Hunger Games anymore… now we’re in a real war…”

Galv nodded, “Right...”

He glanced towards Melanie, making sure she was alright as they headed up to the Sink.

Aerospace Division

“President Gallic has earned my trust,” Walter said, “Any leader you can not trust, can not be a true leader.”

-Safe House-

Edda nodded, “Exactly... We all have to have something to fight for.”

“Poetic.”

Edda turned, seeing Eugene appear, dropping off a couple boxes.

“Here are the uniforms. Get ready. We're heading out soon,” Eugene said.
