I look at the sleeping man.
"Okay Riku, I will watch out for him. But what is a Luddite?"
The man was tall. Maybe he was human or a druidian.

Roane got to her feet and looked at the ground as her eyes changed back to their normal purple color. She smiled weakly as the rain continued to pour down. Her firey red hair became matted to her face and her gown began to cling to her athletic form. The rain ran down her face causing stray hair to frame her white skin.
She held her hands together nervously wanting to reach out to him but felt she shouldnt. She licked her lips and tasted the rain. It was pure yet tasted like tears. She could taste her sadness in the drops but knew she should not be ill towards Grove.
She lifted her head and looked into his face. Understanding reflected in her eyes and expression as she finally got the courage to reach her hand forth and lightly touch his cheek. She made his gaze fall on her.
Yes I saw. But it is nothing for you to be worried about. What...what she did means nothing to me. Because you did not return it. If you had then...
Her hand fell to his chest and she looked down again at her feet. The rain continued to fall drenching her body and soul.

I return to my room at the Ministry of the Environment. I change my clothes and pull my hair back. With my hair pulled back, I look even more severe. I look into the mirror and apply brownish red lipstick. I look at myself in the mirror. The woman I see is not as strong as I wish to be. There is yet one weakness I must rid myself of.
There is no use reflecting. I get up out of my seat and head down the hall of the Ministry. I start looking for Damien since our next mission will be to visit the FRA.
I will not be visiting the Green Party for a long time now as I see it.

Grove puts his hand to her chin, lifting her head to look at him. He stares at her for a moment, but it seems like an hour to her. He slowly moves forward and kisses her lips softly, the feeling of purity washing through her body from his touch. Slowly he pulls away and looks into her eyes with his own.
"That, Roane, you need not fear."

Damien walked through the Ministry of Environment sluggishly, his form weakened. He needed fire. While looking about he spotted Autumn turn the corner in front of him but start walking down the hall in the opposite direction. He shouted to her.
"Autumn! Wait! I could use some help..."
He fell to his hands and knees, his body still steaming from his wet clothes coming in contact with his skin.

Alister decides that he has been idle for too long, and needs to contribute in some way to better this world. He finds his way to Helsinki to see if he could link up with whatever remained of the fourth internationale. He searches the city for clues.

She smiles softly the rain letting up to a drizzle. She leans her head back smiling and holds her arms out closing her eyes letting the rain fall on her face.
She brings her arms infront of her and reaches aroung Groves neck. She brings her head back to face him smiling. She pulls him close to her. Her wet body pressed to his eagerly. Her dress clinging to his shirt. She looks into his eyes and sees herself in them.
I never feared. I...I was afraid that she might...I didnt want her to somehow cause you to pity her enough to lose. Your heart is kind and I didnt want her to try and manipulate you. She seemed to be trying to do that is all. I...I never doubted your feelings for me Grove.
She moves to kiss him again wanting it to last. For this to last for eternity. She could not bear to have anything come between them. She had so much to help him with. SHe had so much to do for mother by his side...

I leave a note on Zero's door telling her what I found when I traveled to Amsterdam. The note says that the anarchist base was destroyed, and that no bodies were found. I start making my way back to the base.
My mind is distracted as I walk, so I accidentally bump into a man.
[glow=violet,2,300]Oh, excuse me, I am sorry.[/glow]
I look up and take a few steps back...

Alister takes a step back as well, and sees who it is that ran into him. For a few moments, he stands there, speechless. He opens his mouth to speak.
"Hello Sayuka. I'm... Surprised to see you here..." He says, reminded of what he did to her.

[glow=Violet,2,300]Is this really so surprising? This is the center of rebel activity. I am more surprised to see that you are alive. I thought that someone may have killed you by now.[/glow] I reply cooly.

"Unfortunately, that is not the case." He replies, in a self deprecative manner. "Your own eyes do not deceive you. I am looking to rejoin. Do you think you could point me in the right direction?" He asks, deliberately not asking if she herself could help him.

[glow=violet,2,300]Yes I'll take you to the rebel base. I'll gladly have you back. We are the last of the ISP, and whatever happened in the past can surely be forgiven.[/glow]
I say pleasantly. I start walking ahead of him and lead him back to the base. Suddenly I turn, drawing my katana, and rush towards him.
[glow=violet,2,300]I trusted you. I will not let you do to another what you did to me.[/glow]

Alister draws his naginata, and hits Sayuka's sword off to the side.
"This is something I have dealt with all of my life, Sayuka. And the best I can do for all those I have wronged is fight for a better world. Would you deny that justice to my victims?" He replies, logically and without emotion.

After they kissed a second time Grove wrapped his arms around her, leaning his head against hers from above.
"I am glad to hear that."
They remained in their embrace for a time before Grove held her gently in front of him as he smiled.
"So, shall we go help Toivo? I do not think they will attack the Green Party again so soon. The treehouse will be safe for a time."

I imbue my sword with the element of fire. I strike at him with the flaming blade.
[glow=violet,2,300]You cannot be trusted, I will not have you harm the rebels here. Go back to where you came from. Go back into hiding![/glow]
