[Apartment] It seemed as if Rue wasn't mistaken, she had actually seen Connor returning! A wave of relief hit Sarai when she saw her husband back in one piece, allowing the man to pull her in what had to be the tightest hug she had ever experienced- not that she minded. "Thank goodness you're safe" she finally managed, pulling back and getting a look at Edda....And Chloe. Sarai had seen them all at their best and worsts by this point in her life- but seeing Chloe unconscious and covered in bloody clothes- and then realizing that both Edda and Connor had her blood on them two, made her a bit unsteady on her feet. She gave a little gasp, rushing over to Edda and looking down at the other woman. "Is Liam's mom okay?" For a moment Sarai had forgotten that her youngest daughter was awake, and was now probably very traumatized. On the contrary, Rue was surprisingly calm, looking over curiously from her spot still against Connor. Instead of answering Rue's question, Sarai looked to Connor and Edda. After all she ASSUMED her husband had done at least some healing on Chloe by now. It did seem that the woman was at least breathing. "What happened out there?" Sarai added |

[Apartment] Connor froze. Upon seeing Sarai and Rue, he had forgotten all about his bloody clothes or how bad Chloe looked right now. He flinched a bit and then quickly shook his head, as he bent down and placed a hand on Rue's shoulder. “She's going to be just fine, Rue. I promise... but you should go bed, okay?” Connor didn't want his daughter to see Chloe in this state. He straightened back up and turned to Sarai. “... We met Jade's new employer, I guess. It got a little rough but we're fine now. Chloe's pretty tired but she'll be alright.” |

[Apartment] Rue was quiet, but gave a small nod. The sight before her looked troubling but she was never one to question her dad. If he said that she would be okay then she trusted him. "Okay daddy...Night" she said softly, hugging him once more before heading back towards her room. She only stopped when she noticed Gem come in, holding some papers. She paused but then looked up at the woman. "Do you have any extra paper?" she asked. Gem blinked (also caught off guard that Connor, Edda and Chloe were back) but gave a nod, handing her a few blank pieces. "Of course little one" Rue smiled and thanked the woman before rushing back into her room. Once the girl was gone Gem was able to process the scene properly. "What happened to her?" “... We met Jade's new employer, I guess. It got a little rough but we're fine now. Chloe's pretty tired but she'll be alright.” "I see the recon didn't go as planned....There's another room down the hall, she can rest in there. I'm afraid everyone else will have to sleep out here, this place isn't quite as nice as Castor's other safe houses" Gem said, still looking a bit distant. "I suposed we at least gained knowledge that the two women are in fact working with each other...Though I assume you didn't find out why?" |

[Apartment] Connor sighed, watching Rue rush off, hoping that she would be able to sleep. He knew the last few days had been difficult for his children – they had witnessed things he had never wanted them to see. Slowly he turned his attention back to Sarai and Gem. “I don't know.” Connor shook his head. “She didn't make a lot of sense... mostly she just wanted me dead. I don't understand what her focus is... but I don't know if we can handle this by ourselves.” He rubbed his chin. “We still know people who are with the new government in Panem. I'm sure we can ask for some help.” |

[Apartment] Usually Gem would shoot down Connor's idea as Castor wasn't very fond on getting the government involved with his dealings (usually because what the man did was often very much illegal) but the man was dead now and right now getting help to prevent whatever this Rouge woman and Jade were planning sounded pretty smart... "I'm afraid Castor didn't have many friends outside of New Vegas." Gem admitted. In fact most government officials loathed his laissez faire method of governing "At least none willing to take on women like that...But I am here to help you any way I can. Castor had a very large amount of money at his disposal. I know every bank number, safe code and private account. I'm happy to extend that to you all to help figure this all out...As a thank you for your assistance. In addition Castor's weapons, including myself, are at your disposal" Gem had spent most of her adult life acting as Castor's personal body guard. She had some mad skills to keep him alive until this point. |

-Apartment- “I'm going to get Chloe cleaned up,” Edda said, still carrying his wife, “Then I'll check on Liam.” He glanced towards Paul, who made a few signs, Edda smiling with relief. “Thanks again, Paul,” Edda smiled, heading to the bathroom to attend to Chloe. Liam was fast asleep in the bed. For him, it was very comfortable. He was like his father, sleeping on a forest floor was fine to him. Maybe it was a little too comfortable... -Military Base- Galv smiled at Joyce, then picked her up and whirled her around in the air. Galv was deceptively strong for his size, grinning and holding his eldest child in his arms. “Do you know what you wanna do when you grow up? You always seem to like to know what's going on. I bet you'd make a good journalist,” Galv said to Joyce. “Rin Nomura? She's dead,” Claire said, matter of factly over the phone, “An illness, a long time ago. I watched them bury the body. What is this about?” -Flashback- “It was insane,” Gallic said, holding his hand to his wound, grimacing slightly. “He started ranting and raving... Said he killed Snow, and was going to kill me next.” Gallic shook his head, standing up carefully, “Be careful, he may have more traps on his body...” Inside, he was grinning. His biggest rival for the presidency was now dead. Having secret abilities was quite useful... |

[Apartment] Connor nodded. Having Castor's money and arms at their disposal would help, but he had a feeling this mysterious Madame Rogue was well connected, financed and armed as well. They would need help to take her down, the only question was who they should go to. “We've still got some friends in Panem. If you can get us set up with a phone line I'll try to make a few calls. In the meantime we just might need those resources too.” He glanced up at Gem. “Whatever happens, we'll make them pay for what they did.” [Military Base] Rica could only hope Claire was right, but there was a nagging feeling in the back of his head. “From what I hear, Nomura was a specialist when it came to robotics and pre-flare tech. As it happens, we were dragged into the schemes of a mysterious Asian woman who had access to some pretty incredible tech – stuff better than anything the Enclave has.” He shook his head. “We need to be sure. Where was she buried?” [Flashback] “My God...” One of the soldiers looked stunned. He quickly placed a call over his walkie, and a minute later turned back to Gallic. “We'll need you to make an official statement, sir. This is a serious matter. I called it in, just wait a few minutes for someone from the higher ups to get here.” |

-Apartment- "Of course, I can get you a secure line set up right now" Gem said, moving to the desk where a small telephone sat. She got to work, rewiring and fiddling around with it's components. "May I ask who you plan on calling? Hopefully they have no qualms helping friends of Castor...Of course you can always leave that out if you see fit." With a click she looked back at the man with a small smile. "It's a bit clunky but this phone should get you through." [...] "It's a pity I won't be around to see your friends discover your lifeless body" Chloe was absolutely drained, so much so that she had been sleeping for god knows how long now.....Her body ached and her head felt weirdly empty, except for the echoing sounds of Rouge right before she shot her in the stomach. Suddenly that noise blasted in her ears and Chloe let out a scream- Instantly Chloe's eyes snapped open, the woman gasping loudly as her eyes were blinded with a bright white light. At first she assumed she was dead and made it to heaven (jokes on god for letting her in with a rap sheet like hers) but then she realized heaven was looking more and more like a bathroom as her vision cleared...It even smelled like cheap soap. Okay, not heaven....But where was she? Well a bathroom duh...Better question WHY did she just wake up in someone's bathroom? [...] Meanwhile Rue still knew she wouldn't be able to sleep after all the excitement so the small girl began to tear the paper quietly, folding into tiny paper flower after tiny paper flower. It would make a good get well present for Liam's mom. -Military Base- "A journalist?" Joyce asked, cocking her head "What does a journalist do?" "Get into trouble for a half-true story" Kanna answered before Galv could "Keep my granddaughter out of the propaganda train won't you? Everyone knows the news we get is just fluffed crap anyways" Joyce once again pipped up "What's propaganda?" "Your mommy and daddy for quite a few years" "Mother!" Melanie warned, narrowing her eyes. "Stop it" Edited by Crystal Rose, Dec 28 2016, 08:46 PM.

-Apartment- “Chloe, calm down, it's me, I'm here,” Edda said as Chloe woke up with a start, “You were hurt, but Connor healed you. We're at a safe house. Liam is fine as well. Paul showed up and saved him.” He smiled at Chloe, “I was just getting you cleaned up. Didn't think you'd want to sleep in blood...” -Military Base- Claire was silent for a long moment before she finally answered Rica. “...Are you saying that Rin might be alive still?” Claire asked carefully, “Gallic never mentioned the possibility of her still being alive...” There was another silence, “...She was buried where other Victors of the Games were buried, over in the capitol. It's... public.” Because the Enclave wanted to show that even the best of the rabble would still die. “I can set something up if it's really important, but it might take a day or two,” Claire added. “Well there we go, Joyce can become a journalist and actually tell the correct news,” Galv said, “She can be honest! You're good at that, aren't you Joyce?” -Flashback- “Of course,” Gallic said, nodding to the soldier. “Could I get a stimpack though, for my shoulder?” |

[Apartment] “I made a contact within Panem's security council who can probably help us out. He's got connections.” Connor explained. “Obviously we can't just call in too many people given we're in New Vegas, but... I think we can get some help.” [Military Base] “Yeah, well, Donny-boy might not have known.” Rica shrugged. “Look, it's only a theory. I never met Nomura, and even if the machine did look like her, that's not proof she's alive... but these machines were more advanced than anything the Enclave ever deployed, and we can't ignore that she was supposedly the expert.” He listened as she spoke. “Whoever was behind the machine tried to recruit myself, Kanna, Ethan and Sammy into something. We never got the details, but clearly she's up to something big. I'd say this is damn important.” [Flashback] “Sir, of course!” The soldier quickly dug into his belongings and retrieved a Stimpak, handing it to Gallic. He stood by awkwardly waiting for several minutes until a car screeched to a halt in front of the diner. No one had been permitted to enter or leave, but suddenly the doors burst open. “... Get the civilians out of here, take them downtown. I'll want statements from each of them in triplicate.” Autumn scowled, before turning his attention to Gallic. “You want to explain what the hell happened?” |

-Apartment- Chloe turned to look at Edda when he spoke, the woman's eyes still wide as she gathered her bearings. “You were hurt, but Connor healed you. We're at a safe house. Liam is fine as well. Paul showed up and saved him.I was just getting you cleaned up. Didn't think you'd want to sleep in blood...” Edda did a good job of giving her the cliffnotes version of what had happened. She looked down noticing the gleam of water on her arms and midsection and what was probably at one time her jacket lying bloody on the floor beside them. She also noticed the sound of running water, and since Edda didn't seem in a panic she was probably fine, just dirty. Chloe calmed down, opening her mouth to speak but only accomplishing a rather pathetic squeak of noise instead of actual speech. It was probably adorable, but it did nothing but annoy the woman who instantly opened her mouth to try again. "T-Thirsty" she mumbled, voice cracking. "I f-feel like I got hit by a van...Did I get hit by a van?" [...] “I made a contact within Panem's security council who can probably help us out. He's got connections.” Connor explained. “Obviously we can't just call in too many people given we're in New Vegas, but... I think we can get some help.” "Very good" Gem said with a nod "Please let me know if I can be of assistance. People didn't like Castor but I can be persuasive if I must...." She then looked towards the door with the children. "Our next step should be figuring out what to do with the children....I fear for their lives here with us, but at the same time they are not much better off alone" Instantly Sarai stiffened "They're not going to be alone." "I fear our next stop may be Panem if Connor manages to gather aid....Would you want them there?" Sarai paused, instantly looking down. "They'll come with us. We'll make it work" -Military Base- Joyce nodded excitedly, hair flopping about. "I'll be a good journalist, I only tell the truth grandma! No propa-pro-" "Propaganda" Kanna answered, still not looking too thrilled. She had to admit the small girl was cute- not out loud though. “Whoever was behind the machine tried to recruit myself, Kanna, Ethan and Sammy into something. We never got the details, but clearly she's up to something big. I'd say this is damn important.” From her spot Kanna gave a small frown, looking to Rica who was currently busy. "Just what were you guys in the middle off?" Melanie asked. Kanna shrugged "The usual." |

-Military Base- “Okay then... I'll get something set up, maybe hide it under renovations, changing it to something of a memorial. Takezo mentioned doing something like that a couple weeks ago. It will take a few days. If you jump the gun and try something now... If it is Rin then she has to have someone or something watching her supposed grave. We never got along that well, but she was very intelligent, almost as much as Don.” Claire thought highly of Gallic, if you couldn't tell. “Good,” Galv smiled, poking Joyce's nose and letting a small spark out from his finger into the girl, a playful little zap he knew wouldn't hurt her at all. -Apartment- “You got hit pretty hard by someone else with odd powers,” Edda said, grabbing a cup and filling it with some water from the sink, holding it for Chloe so she could drink from it. “You lost a lot of blood. Once we're done here, I'll see if we have some juice and something sugary, it'll help you regain what Connor couldn't heal back. But you'll need to rest, okay?” Edda was trying to remain calm and collected, and to most people he would appear to be, but Chloe would be able to hear the worry on his voice, his movements slower and more careful to stop himself from shaking. -Flashback- Gallic moved his shoulder once he injected the stimpack, part of him annoyed at having to waste something like this on himself, but knowing he needed it to explain his recovery. Then Autumn came, someone Gallic didn't especially want to deal with. “Ahhh... Hello Autumn,” Gallic said, “Deckard... went crazy. Guilt, I have to assume. We were having a meeting, and he claimed he killed Snow so he could become President, then claimed he was going to kill me to make sure. He pulled out a gun, I made a ball of fire to defend myself. The heat and light must have blinded him. His first shot went through my shoulder. Then the guards came in, he refused to put down the gun, and they shot him before he could shoot me again. Quite commendable soldiers, I'll want to thank them personally after this.” |

-Apartment- Chloe made a move to take the cup but realized that her hands were shaking rather noticeably, not because she was scared but rather because a second ago she was unconscious and still drained of a good chunk of blood. With a sigh she decided to relent and allowed her husband to hold it, taking a long gulp. She absolutely loathed being babied, but she supposed there was really nothing to do but accept her husband's kindness until she could get back to normal. "T-Thanks" she said when she was finally done drinking, eyes landing on Edda's own hands, a very slight twitch to them. It was like he was focusing very hard on not shaking himself. “You lost a lot of blood. Once we're done here, I'll see if we have some juice and something sugary, it'll help you regain what Connor couldn't heal back. But you'll need to rest, okay?” Chloe nodded slowly, moving forward and falling against her husband in a soft and slightly awkward thump. She meant for it to be a hug, but she still couldn't keep herself up on her own accord (and she didn't want to get him all wet) so she kinda just leaned against him. "I'm okay- I mean i'll be okay. No need to worry about little old me" she mumbled with a tiny grin. "I know you were probably freaked out seeing me all gross and half-dead" Chloe and Edda were both very proud people. They were tough, unafraid and probably a bit too cocky at times. They also trusted the abilities of the other without fail. They always knew the other would be fine in dangerous situations- but when that wasn't the case things got more complicated. -Military Base- Joyce couldn't help but to giggle at the spark, instantly her long black hair started to frizz witch static. She wiggled her nose and looked to her mom. "Okay, you look crazy now" Melanie said, patting down the girl's hair. From her spot Solanna jumped "Oh do me!" she exclaimed to Galv. Don't electrocute your niece for fun Galv. |

-Apartment- Edda was silent for a moment when Chloe slumped against him. He paused for another moment, then pulled her in tightly for a hug, not caring about getting wet or anything else, just that Chloe was safe. “I... I was really worried...” Edda finally said, not letting go of Chloe, “I wasn't sure if... if you'd... but Connor made it in time... I...” Edda took a deep breath, trying to stop himself from shaking while he held Chloe still. “I love you Chloe... please don't die on me...” -Military Base- Galv laughed slightly, then shook his head towards Solanna. “Sorry, but I only do that with Joyce since she's electro-kinetic like me.” He glanced towards Blake, who was smiling happily at everyone around him. |

[Apartment] Connor waited for a few moments as he was transferred from one person to another, before finally he heard a voice over the end of the line. He felt a sense of relief come over him. “It's Connor Jackson... I'm in New Vegas right now. Things here are bad. There are some very dangerous, very crazy people after my family and friends, and we really need some help.... right.... okay, and where is that? Right... Okay, thanks.” Connor hung up the phone and then returned to Gem and Sarai. “They can send an Vertibird to pick us up and take us to Panem, but it's going to take some time... in the meanwhile, though, he did at least give us the address of someone who can help us while we're in New Vegas.” [Military Base] “Thanks. Just do what you can.” Rica replied. He fought his natural instinct to ask if Rin was as crazy as Gallic. Instead he thanked Claire and then handed the phone back to Walter, before stuffing his hands in the pockets of his jacket and walking over to Kanna and Melanie. “Settle in, we might all be staying at the military base for at least a few days. This whole thing could be a lot bigger than I ever imagined...” [Flashback] “Really?” Autumn raised an eyebrow and then fell silent. For all his faults, Augustus was not a stupid man. He smelled something wrong with the whole situation. Why would Deckard orchestrate a careful assassination of Snow and then so foolishly attack Gallic in public? “... well, glad you're not too banged up. I'll send the soldiers by so you can talk to them later.” |
