Normally, one's awakening should be gradual. It is a cruel thing to do, wake someone up with a pail of water or ice cubes under the blankets or some other extreme form of awakening. And if such extreme measures were taken, an extreme reaction is definitely expected.

"AAAH! COOOOHOOOOLD!"

So it was no wonder that when Cess upended a pail of water over Lavan's head, the pyro woke up spluttering, sitting up quickly and shouting.

"Cold! Cold! COOOOOLD! Water! Cold! Water! Explain! COLD! Waking up with WATER! COLD WATER! NOT! COOL!"

It was no surprise that Lavan was PROBABLY loud enough to wake up half the rebel base with his shouts, and inform more than three fourths that he was quite awake now. Awake, wet and cold. And very, very annoyed.

It actually took a few seconds for him to literally start steaming as little flames began to lick in his hair, despite the fact that his hair was still wet.

"SO! Explain to me WHY, by all the gods and goddesses and various other midget entities of heaven and hell, did you decide to WAKE ME UP WITH A PAIL OF COLD WATER???"

Edda shook his head a little, “I see. That's not a bad thing though. If the world had more people like you, it would probably be a better place.”

He sighed a little, “But we're not going to teach you or Sarai to be a good fighter in the next five minutes. It sounds like everyone's getting ready for the assault... So do you want to go and try and confront Autumn, or stay behind?”



Cess stayed quiet, patient as Lavan bolted upright and complained about the cold water, the pale skinned man just smirking for a moment.

“It wasn't a pail. Just a canteen. And I only used half of it,” Cess said, sloshing said canteen in his hand as if to demonstrate, “But I woke you up because everything's coming to a head now. Gallic has... well, he has some kind of super weapon. He destroyed Panem's Senate building and has declared himself in rebellion of the Enclave. As far as we can tell, he's got a good portion of the military backing him. The other part is under Autumn, and they're attacking the capitol to take it back.”

He paused, then pulled out a small device, tapping a couple buttons and showing it to Lavan. It had the video Gallic had sent when declaring his independence, along with the information that the Rebels could get.

“This is going to be our best chance to take out Autumn and Gallic. With the Senate gone as well, it gives us a real chance to knock out the leaders of the Enclave and actually end it,” Cess said, “And I doubted you'd want to sleep through all that. So get ready, you'll be heading out with Nanami.”

Connor paused as he heard the announcement, and Edda’s confirmation that it was time for the assault. The boy hesitated, knowing that Edda was right – he wasn’t going to become a great fighter… and in truth, he didn’t want to be one.

He still remembered killing Ryan in New Vegas. He could still smell the sick odor of blood… and although he did not regret what he had done, for he had saved Sarai; he didn’t ever want to kill someone again.

“… I’m going.” Connor said, turning his head to Edda, Chloe and Sarai. “… but I’m not going as a soldier. That’s not who I am. I’m going to come along because my healing power might save lives.”

“It wasn't a pail. Just a canteen. And I only used half of it,”

Lavan's response was quite immediate.

"That is NOT the point! You don't wake up genius after said genius has been asleep for all of... What, 4 and a half hours? And you DON'T, EVER, EVER EVER EVER wake up this spoken of genius with COLD WATER! Cold water is often responded to by liberal application of fire. This is a warning, promise and a most definitive sign for next time you try to apply anything cold and wet to my face when I sleep."

Lavan settled down to watch the clip and hear Cess's explanation though, drying himself off completely in the meantime, watching the enormous beam strike from orbit.

"... Huh. What do you know, the old geezer was right. Gallic DID have something more up his sleeve. WHY am I not surprised. But that announcement... Hell, THAT is what gets me. Gallic now against his own government? THAT's something for the record books. That man turns his allegiances faster than a pop star changes clothes."

He shrugged.

"Guess it's a good thing I planned ahead. Come on, Cess! Let's go inform the head honcho and his gorgeous side-kick that I am a GENIUS!"

And with a grin, Lavan hopped off the bed, dashing out of his room and heading right for Old Man Sensei's office. He passed quite a few of the preparing rebels on his way, ducking in between them and running past them before opening Old Man Sensei's door with a flying kick, and making a perfect landing, hands spread wide.

"OLD MAN! TELL ME I'M A GENIUS!"

“Being loud isn’t grounds for being a genius.” The sharp tongue of Nanami cut the room as he walked in from the door. She had changed into an all-black uniform with a hooded cloak, and had a bow strung over her shoulder, as well as a Pulse Gun tied to her belt.

There was a somber look in her eyes. She had already decided that today would be the end, either for Gallic or for her. There was a cold realization at the idea, and she was in a worse mood than usual.

“You’d better be getting ready… and I want to talk to you before we go.”

Lavan waved a finger in front of NAnami as she finished speaking after having barged in right after him, and cackled maniacally.

"Ah-ah! You hold your horses lady, I have news, and they're GOOD! But I won't tell ANYONE until you tell me that I'm a genius. So come on then! Say the words, and I shall regale you with tales of chivalry and epic awesomeness, because you know I am awesome!"

He snapped around, pointing at Cess who probably followed him.

"You do it too! Tell me I'm a genius, come on, you know you want to!"

Edda smiled, nodding to Connor, “Always nice to have a medic nearby. I need to go get ready.”

Edda left, returning a few minutes later, dressed in his black stealth armor, his Anti-Materiel Rifle slung on his back, holding a Pulse Rifle was well on his side.

“Well I'm ready,” Edda grinned.



As Lavan dashed off, Cess followed at a more routine pace, catching up after Lavan had kicked Old Man Sensei's door open and Nanami found him as well.

"OLD MAN! TELL ME I'M A GENIUS!"

“I would, but I'm a horrible liar,” the old man said idly, not even looking up after Lavan kicked his door open.

Cess just stared right at Lavan, and shrugged. Going along with Lavan was the path of least resistance, and the quickest way to get things moving and not having Nanami stab the pyro.

“Sure, you're a genius. But tell us why as you're getting ready,” Cess said.

Nanami narrowed her eyes. She stepped forward so that she was only a mere foot away from Lavan, staring at him with thin red slits of pure anger.

“I don’t have time to stroke your ego. We’re in the middle of a WAR. We have the best chance we’ll ever have to topple the Enclave and kill Gallic. If you have something to add, do it, otherwise we need to talk.”

Lavan huffed in annoyance at Old Man Sensei's response, knowing full well that this was joking in between them. That didn't mean he had to take it lying down though.

"I would think you'd recognize genius when you saw it, old man, but I guess you're just blind these days. Might want to get those eyes looked at if you can't see this hunking pile of genius right here."

He spun around to face Cess with a grin.

"THANK YOU! At last some recognition! You could learn from this guy, old man, he's got what it takes to see! Cess, I declare you officially legally not-blind in my eyes. Unlike miss Ice Queen of Frostyland over there, and the big boss who has more wrinkles than the old world had countries. Or was that hair... I could never tell the difference."

However, he decided to move on from there.

"Guess what? I did a thing! It's a thing that got me this load of papers right here, so take a look through them, old fart, they might help you with planning. Oh yes, planning is good. VERY good. So take a look at them while I regale you with a tale of pure awesomeness and sauce!"

He spun into one of the chairs Old Man sensei had in the room, and brought one leg over the other, grinning mightily.

"I got us some allies. Now, don't you go thinking this is some low-rank stuff there, the only low-rank stuff I bring to the table today is cavalry. I got in touch with a biker gang I used to run with a little while, they're all gun-savvy and they are all on motorcycles. That's your cavalry a clan of around fifty bikers with guns. BIG guns too, I got them some interesting new toys to play with. THEN! Then I finished up my business in Vegas, and ALL of the mafioso families there will be joining in on the fight, fighting dirty all they way. I got them tied into some of the Big Mountain stuff, and I got them to equip the bikers, so we have a plethora of weapons, bodies and skill on our side. I got in touch with the medical center of Vegas as well. I LOVE their name, and they're cool people with medical skills and scientific knowledge. Expect them to set up a few field hospitals. AND! I'm not done, there's more! I have contacted a pretty reclusive group I used to sneak explosives from. Bunch of psychos up north who got their hands on an aerodrome, tugged in a bunch of old-world howitzer artillery, repaired them and are now set on shelling the Enclave upon my signal. Said signal will only go up into the air when Gallic's little outer-space toy no longer has targeting parameters, that's our job. Said group has also equipped the mafia and the bikers with enough explosive devices to level the entirety of New Vegas, AND we have access to a pre-apocalypse B2 Stealth Bomber."

He leaned back in the chair, legs crossed and grinning like a loony.

"And now... I'll accept the praise and comments of genius. Lay them on me. You know you want to."

Nanami listened to Lavan as he laid out everything he had been busy doing and for a moment her expression softened. At least he hadn’t been sleeping all day and wasting time like she assumed he had been.

“… Good. You’ve brought a lot to the table, and for that I’m grateful.” Nanami said, but there was no smile on her face. She walked over to Lavan and stared down at him where he sat. Although she was more impressed than she would admit, she still had her worries about him.

“… You have a decision to make, Lavan. You can lead your little forces against Gallic and Autumn’s armies and take them down, or you can come with us… but if you’re going to come with us, I need you to actually work with us. No going off half-cocked on your own.”

Lavan looked up an Nanami with a pout.

"It's not my fault you guys ended up in such a tight spot at the Think Tank! You also should have known better than to bring me to a chemistry lab. I can never resist the temptation to make something truly magnificent in such a wonderfully well-controlled setup. So don't blame me for actually getting you out of that place in one piece, because Horrigan WOULD have come back without that pacification field in place. And YOU, gorgeous, were NOT in any condition to fight for too long."

He shrugged.

"I came to help you rebels get one up over Gallic. But it's more than that now, isn't it? It's a fight not against Gallic, but against the REGIME that had humanity stuck in such a bad spot for so long. It's a fight against the rule of the Enclave."

He shot a look at Old Man Sensei, and braced himself.

"And from what I figure, that means Gallic is no longer priority target number one. Oh, sure, we'd have him face justice, but he's no longer the end goal of everything. The takedown of the Enclave is what counts, and that's what I built an army to aid you in. So if you are pulling a promise from me not to go half-cocked and do my own thing to help people, I'll want a promise in return. I'll want a promise that you won't deliberately seek out Don Gallic as the goal you're striving for. If he ends up in your way, go for it. I won't stop you, there's REALLY bad blood there... But this is to help people like the rebels, kids like Galv and MElanie to live in peace without the threat of blood sports over their heads."

He looked up at Nanami, eyes angled together, staring piercingly. It was almost a GLARE!

"Can you deal with that?"

Nanami glared right back at Lavan without missing a beat. She placed a hand on her hip. She decided not to comment on what happened at Big MT, deciding that it wasn’t useful to fight over the past. She was too concerned with the future.

“Do not presume to tell me what the goal is. I’ve been working against the Enclave a lot longer than you have. I’ve lived through their horrors in ways you can’t imagine. I know how important it is to bring an end to the Enclave’s regime. That’s precisely what I’m trying to do.”

She crossed her arms. “But Don Gallic WILL die today. There’s no reason we can’t do both. Now, either you’re going to help us or you aren’t. I won’t have you get in my way. The Enclave falls today.”

Lavan looked past Nanami at Old Man Sensei, and thumbed towards the oriental girl.

"She's very evasive, isn't she?" He shrugged, sighing in helplessness. "Oh well, it can't be helped really. I'm still a stranger, and the fact that I care can possibly be thought of as some strange pick-up line. Or even worse, an AGENDA. But if you won't listen to me, Nanami, at least listen to those you have worked with for much longer, those you trust and those that trust you, those you KNOW care. We work for the destruction of the Enclave and the regime, to bring smiles to the faces of children and a slice of happiness to this world. But the destruction of the Enclave and Gallic's death don't necessarily have to mean your fall from grace too."

And with that cryptic sentence, he turned his attention to Old Man Sensei.

"So, you old geezer! You impressed? You better be impressed. I got a total of just under 20 hours of sleep this past week, you BETTER be grateful."

“You’re the one who isn’t listening.” Nanami snapped, turning her eyes towards Lavan. She was irritated by the redhead’s presumptions. She simply crossed her arms and growled slightly.

“I know exactly what we’re working for. I know it better than you can imagine. I’ve been fighting to bring down the Enclave for a decade now. I know exactly what they do, and exactly how many people they’ve destroyed – and I’m trying to end it for exactly that reason.”

She turned away from Lavan and crossed her arms. “… You could try taking this a little seriously if you’re going to lecture people.”

Lavan looked up, smiling disarmingly, his attention back on Nanami for the moment.

"A little hint for you, since you haven't noticed it yet. You should have though. You're observant. But see? I'm insane! Most of the stuff I spout is gibberish, and the things I do are total nonsense! And I am rarely ever serious, especially in situations like these. You can lecture me on the importance of being a straight man all you want, but I just don't see the point. We could all end up in a grave soon. Planning is good and all, but all the planning has been done already, and a plan never survives contact with an army of gerbils anyways. So I'm going to fit every single second of life into every single second I have. It's much more fun that way."

He shrugged.

"I'm not gonna lecture, I'll stop. I'm not part of the little club you made, though I am definitely now a part of this rebellion, and I doubt you're going to consider me a friend because I'm a loose cannon. It's not my place to lecture at all, really. You've fought and will fight until the end. I just joined recently, doing some fighting of my own. We have the greatest conflict coming, too, so you're up to your ears in planning. Do your thing."

He saluted, a loose and relaxed salute that could be mocking, or just simply lazy.

"But I'll do my own thing if I see people in need, and you home in on Don Gallic, you dig?"
