Arena

"A-A....A l-l-little bit" Sarai answered, making a conscious effort to speak more in front of Connor. She wanted to try for him, after all he had given her the ability once more... "I-It feels f-fun-funny to he-hear m-myself"

It was a good kind of funny though.

[...]

Melanie giggled, pushing Galv away as he kissed her again. "You know we can't just sit here like this for the rest of the games" she joked "What would the viewers think? They'd be so bored without us running around trying to kill eachother!"

The girl giggled again.


Forest

"I'm here i'm here!" Crystal called out, rushing after the group. The girl had taken the same opportunity to escape as they did...Though she knew they didn't have long before the distraction would be gone.

Enclave Headquarters

“Yes. I did. The Avox we sent into the Arena for the Tribute Connor Jackson… a most unfortunate thing has happened. He’s healed her.

"W-What!?" Crane asked, raising a brow "How-But surely that's not possible. You can't heal a wound like that"

Apparently you can. And Connor did.

“We can’t have that. We need to send a message. I want you to make some arrangements in the Games. Set things up so that the boy and his little entourage make it to Central Park. I’ll have something I want you to have waiting for them.”

"Y-Yes of course...I'll take care of it all. Don't worry. We'll fix this"

Crane was nervous.

“I’m here.” Sama popped his head out of some bushes. He was still bleeding a bit from his run in with Jade. “And we need to hurry. We lucked out that the Peacekeepers are killing each other, but we can’t count on it for long. Come on!”

[…]

Knife was gripped by the vortex of water and his eyes widened as he was thrown back. He slammed into a tree and grunted in pain.

“Jade! This is your area, deal with it!” Knife shouted.

[Arena]

Connor smiled at Sarai. He was happy that this was working, at least a little.

“I think you have a beautiful voice.” Connor told her, and he brushed some of her hair behind her ear.

[Enclave HQ]

“Good.” Autumn said, and he stood up from his chair. He slipped a pistol into the holster around his belt and then flashed a demented grin towards Crane.

“Get everything ready. I’m going to go pay a visit to the boy’s parents.”

[Rebellion HQ]

Nanami soon appeared at the end of the hall. She looked as unhappy as ever. Her bow was around her back, and she had a quiver next to it.

She paused as she saw Cess, Grassi and a bunch of strangers.

“Is something actually happening around here?” Nanami asked, raising an eyebrow.

"Sama! Oh you're hurt!" Crystal exclaimed, stopping to turn to the young man and wiping some of the blood off his face, "You're right, we've gotta get out of here....Surely we aren't far from the base? Heck anywhere safe would be good right now!"

[...]

"Ugh FINE!" Jade exclaimed, raising her arms and glaring forward at their attacker. She had recovered enough to bloodbend once more, and now she was ready to hurt someone....

Arena

Sarai's tanned cheeks went pink as Connor brushed some hair from her face. She then bit her lip, looking to the side. "W-When we g-g-get out of he-here....Will you h-heal m-my fam-family?" she asked, a bit randomly.

[...]

"Hey! We trust you....Mostly" Chloe said, leaning back and picking at her teeth "Look, it's nothing personal, but we're here to kill each other. I just wouldn't be surprised if you want to stab me while I sleep"

Enclave HQ

Crane gave a sigh when he was out of Autumn's presence, the man rushing back to the Gamecenter where many people were wtaching every aspect of the Games. How could he have missed something as big as a Avox being healed!?

"Where is that Connor boy?" he asked, looking over all the screens "There! Yes! Gas them out, get them to Central Park right away!"

Sama shook his head.

“I’m okay, nothing that can’t wait. We’re almost there, we just have to keep moving… there’s an entrance just ahead, disguised to look like a tree trunk. Everybody, keep going!”

[Arena]

Connor blinked as Sarai mentioned her family. She had never mentioned them before, but the boy smiled.

“Of course I will! I’d do anything for you… but what happened to them?”

Suddenly, Connor started to cough. Something was happening… a cloud of gas was coming at them!

“S-Sarai, run! Back outside, we have to find Chloe and Edda!”

"T-They-" Sarai started to cough, something suddenly burning her throat. She was confused at first but suddenly realized it was some sort of gas. The girl jumped up, rubbing her eyes...Sarai nodded, grabbing his hand. She wasn't going to lose him now!

I can't see what you're imagining
-Flashback-

(Ahhh, I forgot this last post. D: )

“Alright then...this way,” Samuel said, stopping at one door. He opened it up, showing a nursery room. There was only one crib in it right now, along with a small bed for Jason.

“The other crib's in your room, I'll move it in for you,” Samuel said.

Little Galv stayed quiet, staring at Jason and Melanie. His father had explained to him what was happening earlier, but he was still curious.

-Arena-

Galv paused for a moment, looking off to the side, thinking.

“Well your leg is still hurt,” Galv said, “I don't mind carrying you, but I'd rather you get some rest. Besides, I'm having fun...”

He pulled her a little closer to him now, grinning brightly. “Besides I couldn't kill you...I couldn't hurt you at all...”



“If I wanted you dead, I wouldn't have helped you guys earlier, or I would have lead you to a Deathclaw nest I found earlier,” Edda said to Chloe. Crazy as it sounds, I haven't fought at all yet in the Arena here, if you can believe it. I've just been surviving...”

-Forest-

“Alright then, let's hurry up...” Ethan said, following Sama and Crystal, still carrying Kanna.

Erin paused, shaking slightly, then tugged at Jason's sleeve.

“I think...that person...in the armor...” Erin said quietly, “I think it was my brother...”



The fighter in armor turned towards Jade now. Something clicked in his arms, and he pointed at Jade, opening fire with a hail of bullets suddenly!

-Rebellion HQ-

“Ahhh, Nanami, just who I wanted to see,” Cess said as Nanami appeared, “We have someone else to help with the technical stuff we'll come across.”

Agoi nodded to Nanami.

“And Jimi here, who's coming too,” Cess answered, “They should be helpful.”

Sama rushed forward, and when they reached the tree he pushed on the log and a moment later a hidden door opened. He motioned for the others to rush inside. “Come on, everybody in! We’re home free now.”

[Rebellion HQ]

Nanami simply shrugged.

“Good. We could use the help. Any word on when we’re actually going forward with all of this?”

Nanami is impatient.

Flashback

Kanna gave a slight nod, looking down at Jason and handing him little Melanie. The little girl clutched her older brother tightly, looking at Galv with wide eyes...She didn't know this strange boy, and she didn't know this strange location....She was rather scared so she didn't make a sound. Despite her tension Jason smiled at the red headed boy and climbed on the bed with Melanie.

"Is this your room?" Jason asked, bouncing on the mattress a bit. He wasn't even sure Galv was old enough to talk back.

Meanwhile Kanna followed Samuel to the next room, standing in the doorway as he moved to the crib in her room. "So where is your room?" Kanna asked casually.


Arena

“Besides I couldn't kill you...I couldn't hurt you at all...”

Melanie grinned, looking up and shouting out suddenly. "You hear that!? He won't kill me! And I won't kill him! I guess we'll just be here forever!" she then looked back to Galv and kissed him again. "I'm kinda passed the point of caring about being on tv." she admitted.

[...]

"It must be nice, just surviving without having to kill. Eh, too late for me-" Chloe said, pausing and sniffing....Something tingled and burned...It smelled like gas.... "What the hell is-"

Suddenly she noticed gas seeping through the closed door. Instantly the girl jumped up, grabbing Edda's arm and slapping an old rag to his nose. "It's gas!" she exclaimed before doing the same for herself.

Forest

Crystal nodded, heading towards the stump.

"Wait what!?" Jason exclaimed. "Your brother?...Why would he be here...In armor...Fighting us?"

Jason couldn't help but to give a small gulp....Probably to kill him for slipping off to uncharted territory with his sister...Great.

"Maybe you were mistaken?" Jason asked hopefully.

[Arena]

Connor gripped Sarai’s hand tightly as they tried to escape. He paused, looking around, and then he shouted.

“CHLOE! EDDA! If you can hear me, hurry and get outside!”

Connor rushed to the nearest door and threw his shoulder against it, popping it open as they rushed out into the street!

[Forest]

“We can discuss who it was inside!” Sama called to Jason and Erin. “Now everybody in the secret passage, we gotta go!”

[District Clinic]

The small clinic in the district had sat for years. It was where the Jackson family had practiced medicine for years. Even now, as their son was stuck in the Hunger Games, Connor’s parents pressed on, helping and healing the community.

And a car pulled up outside. An Enclave car, and several people stepped out…

Arena

Sarai took in a gasp of air when they rushed outside, eventually falling into a fit of coughs to clean out her lungs. She hoped that Edda and Chloe had heard Connor's yells...But so far nothing.

The girl then turned to Connor. "A-A-Are yo-you okay?"

Forest

Jason nodded, pulling Erin along as they followed Sama and Crystal into the passage...

[...]

"Just what the hell is this guy made of?" Jade exclaimed, gritting her teeth as she raised her hands and a thick block of ice formed in front of her. It was enough to stop most of the bullets....Though eventually it cracked and she stumbled back with a loud curse. She then brought her hands down to the ground, slapping the dirt and sending a wave of ice at him!

Rebellion HQ

Grassi smiled happily after the mention of this Spork. An inventor, huh? At least Grassi wasn't alone. "Ah, nice to meet all of you. Like I said, I'm Dr. Michael Grassi. I'm behind a lot of the weaponry, armor, and fancy little computer things you see around here. If Mr. Spork here wants to contribute, I could always use another mind at my side. I was actually working on something that could lend itself a lot to our mission.."

He turned to Nanami. "Soon, Miss Nomura." He gulped hard. "I spoke to the Colonel recently. He said the Vertibirds are up and ready to fly...but he also warned me it the pilots weren't the best, only handed to him on short notice by Kimball."

The Arena

Shizuo frowned as he sniffed it. Edible, huh? He felt stomach pains. Would this help? He hadn't eaten well in a long time, and had lost some weight since entering the arena.

He wasn't looking at Maize as she rubbed her side..no, he believed in privacy while someone was 'licking their wounds.' He decided to try to eat some of it. Perhaps he was too trusting..

---

Shipper frowned. "Aiden! You're not supposed to actually swallow gum. Oi.." He sighed but smiled.

"Earth Guy! Yeah, yeah! ..wait, no..I think I'm the only guy with the ability to manipulate rocks..." He paused and scratched his chin. "It needs to be secretive."

The Fort

Cole paused and smirked, taking the drink and removing the cap before handing it to Zeke. He finally took a swig, the fluid slowly running down his throat.

"Can't exactly tell it here." He sighed and shook his head. "Too many ears. Let's get back to the Mojave, out of Cottonwood, and back to the mercs. I'll tell all of you at once."

He saw Cursor Luculus ahead and nodded to Zeke. "What were you up to, anyway?"

Nanami shook her head with a grim smirk on her face.

“Well they’re better pilots than me, and that’s all I really care about.” While Nanami was extremely intelligent, she was not that good behind the wheel. Vehicles were rare these days – only the wealthiest people in the Capitol had cars, and only the military had Vertibirds – but Nanami had tried to drive a car once.

It ended up totaled.

“As long as the pilots can get me there, and the Tributes out safely.” Nanami said, shrugging.

[...]

Sama led the group down the elevator, and into the rebel headquarters!


[Arena]

Connor was coughing. His lungs were burning and his eyes hurt and watered.

“I’m, I’m okay…” Connor coughed. “We need to keep going…”

-Rebellion HQ-

“I don't really specialize in any one thing,” Agoi said, “I'm just sort of a general fixer and builder, but I'm pretty good. I've even gotten a little experience with power armor. A Peacekeeper with a suit would see me about fixing it if they got it banged up doing something stupid, like letting their friends shoot them or something.”

Cess perked up, “That would be useful...We got a lot of good fighters, but we don't have any power armor ourselves...”

“Unfortunately I can't do anything with whatever they use to negate the pylons with their armor. Never saw that component with the armors I fixed up,” Agoi sighed, “Either they didn't have them or took them out before they brought them to me.”

“But you know some weaknesses, which will help,” a new voice said, appearing by them, “Greetings, I am Old Man Sensei, pleasure to meet you.”

He shook Agoi, Rose, Jimi, Aboy, and even Colette's hand briefly, then turned to Nanami.

“We're setting off now. Our allies at the Game Center should be turning off the force field soon, but even if they don't, I'm confident we can shut it off there. Nanami, you're in charge of the force there. Remember, the main objective is to get the Tributes out. We're not there to get into a fight, but if you can inflict some damage, I wouldn't be disappointed. Just don't try any last stands. We need you here Nanami...”



Ethan stepped through the stump, still carrying Kanna as he looked around at the Rebellion HQ.

“Impressive...” he said, then let Kanna down now.

Erin shook a little, looking back to Jason.

“I'm sure it was my brother...Who else who has access to Enclave armor would be helping us?”

-Forest-

Ice flew at the armor wearing warrior, who held up his hands, steam shooting up around him, boiling hot and melting the ice as it flew towards him, turning it into steam as well.

“Seems we have the same ability,” the figure said, then clenched his hands, the steam swirling around in his hands, turning colder and forming shards of ice around him, “Let's see who's better.”

The ice shards flew at Jade!

-Arena-

Galv smiled again, kissing Melanie back. He was a little worried that after Melanie's attack some kind of monster would burst from the wall, but when it didn't he relaxed slightly, pulling the girl tighter to him.

“I wouldn't mind the cameras being off...I'd still feel a little awkward making out with you with lots of people watching,” Galv said with a slight smirk, “And it looks like that medicine is working, I'm glad. Maybe we can get me a new shirt next...Unless you prefer me without one.”



Edda ran outside, pulling ahead of the others, then slowing down as he glanced back towards them.

“Gas...either another Tribute found some and is trying to flush us out somewhere, or the Game Makers are trying to heard us somewhere...” Edda thought to himself, looking around the rooftops, trying to see if he could spot anyone.

“Be careful, it's got to be a trap!” Edda yelled to the others, pulling out a knife from his belt, still keeping his eyes and ears open.



Maize paused, then frowned as Shizuo tried some of the medicinal paste.

“You should only eat it if you have some kind of internal injury...or the runs...” Maize said with a frown, “You're pretty trusting you know...I could have poisoned that...”



Aiden paused, frowning a little.

“But we're partners, right?” Aiden said, “So if one of us called for help, wouldn't whoever's attacking us assume it'd be the other?”

-The Fort-

“Just talking to the locals, getting to know the culture,” Zeke said idly with a grin, then under his breath, “Bunch of stuck up tightwads, if you know what I mean Cole. Be glad to get out of here.”

-Gallic's Office-

“I still think we should have put a tracker on her. Would have been an excellent opportunity to find where the Rebels are,” Claire said, sitting across from Gallic in his office.

“No...I wouldn't want that information out there. Don't want Autumn getting his hands on it and trying to attack the Rebellion. Better to have them come to us,” Gallic answered, shaking his head, “How about your son?”

“He should be fine,” Claire answered, “As you know he's right here.”

She and Gallic smirked slightly. Walter was not in the office, but Gallic and Claire would swear he was once Walter returned from his mission.

“I still think you're pinning a bit too much on her. You really don't know her that well,” Claire then added, “She probably won't do what you want her to do.”

“I'm sure she will, I have faith in the girl,” Gallic answered.

“Misguided faith,” Claire frowned, “You know that girl's history.”

“Oh, you're not jealous, are you?” Gallic laughed, leaning back in his chair now, “I didn't peg you as the type.”

“Of course not,” Claire said dryly, “But she's not exactly stable.”

“I know, I know,” Gallic said, waving his hand idly “And I'm prepared to deal with the unexpected. Besides, with any luck these Games will be the last ones...I have to say, the bit with Hawkins and Narroh was a stroke of luck though. Perfect bait to get the Rebellion to try something daring. They even pair some physical resemblance to them...”

Claire nodded, “Indeed. I don't think Autumn's been happy with it, but the boy's grandfather has been pulling strings and stopping the Game Makers from trying anything too desperate with them.”

“Another lucky break. Hate to show even part of my hand too soon...” Gallic said, then pulled out a folder, “Now, for some logistics...”

Nanami had to let out an inward groan. Old Man Sensei would have to lay it on this thick now. Taking down the shields might be her best chance to get an audience with Don Gallic and bury an arrow in his brain as she had fantasized about doing ever since her turn in the Games.

… Yeah, Nanami has issues. XDX

“I know.” Nanami said silently. As much as she obsessed over killing Gallic, she could relate to the Tributes. Their struggles in the Arena in many ways mirrored her own… and like many of the people watching, she couldn’t help but notice the similarity between Melanie and Galv and her own Games.

“I’ll get the Tributes out. Don’t worry.” Nanami muttered.

[…]

Sama frowned, crossing his arms.

“If it is your brother…” He trailed off. Erin seemed unstable, and he didn’t want to point out the obvious; if it was Erin’s brother, the Enclave would want him dead for this.

[District]

Colonel Autumn sat in a local Peacekeeper office. He had already seen about his business, and had sent along the ‘package’ to Crane with instructions. He would be glad to see the stupid boy who had healed the Avox suffer, but at the moment he had an even bigger fish to fry.

Autumn was meeting with a man not of the Enclave. The man had come from New Vegas. He was an expert at sneaking in and out of Enclave territory – thanks in part to Autumn’s help. The man was also an expert in many gruesome fields.

“Well, well… my dear Colonel, what can I do for you today?”

Autumn downed a shot of whiskey. “I’m worried. Something’s up with the Games. We have that newbie Crane running the Games this year, and he’s been too soft… but I don’t think it’s all his doing. Gallic’s up to something. I don’t know what… but I intend to find out. I won’t let that bastard ruin the Enclave my family built.”

Autumn never missed an opportunity to brag about his lineage. It was clear to anyone with half a brain that he resented Gallic being the President, and coveted the job for himself.

The man from New Vegas chuckled. “Well… the Omertas can help, of course, we’ll need something in return. I need House out of the picture.”

“I’ll hold up my end of the bargain. You just find out what Gallic’s up to.” Autumn grunted.

“Very well.” The stranger slipped on his sunglasses and put his fedora back on and strolled out.

Melanie couldn't help but to giggle again, her usually pale face bright pink. She knew if she somehow survived this her mother would kill them both for their now VERY public displays of affection....But she didn't seem to care. She wanted to be bold now! She wanted to yell out that she was falling for this boy! But something made her hesitate.

"Hey Galv...Back in the games, a couple years back...There was a couple. A girl and a guy who loved each other- what ever happened to them?"

[...]

"What the hell are they trying to accomplish with that!?" Chloe coughed, rubbing at her eyes as she was greeted with sweet oxygen...

Suddenly a growl could be heard again...Apparently Crane still needed to get them to the park....

Sarai stiffened, desperately tugging on Connor's arm. Before she could form the words to warn him another dog-creature came out of nowhere, barking viciously.

Rebellion HQ

Colette looked up at Old Man Sensei as he shook her small hand. "Please keep my daddy safe" she said, before moving to her mother.

[....]

Kanna was let down, looking around the headquarters without showing much emotion. In all truth she was impressed that this place was hidden, but she wasn't one for the dramatic gasps...You'd be lucky to get an eyebrow raise in all truth.

Meanwhile Jason wasn't sure if Walter was really helping them per se.....But he didn't want to fight with the girl. "I'm sure he knows what he's doing out there....He'll be fine" he said carefully, patting the girl's shoulder carefully.

Jason wondered if he knew where the Rebellion headquarters was....
