The Bolsheviks In Your Bathroom

["Zero" Americanski]

"It was only fair, I know you love him and it wouldn;t be fair for him if I had the ability to heal him and didn't, if I did he could rightly accuse me of stealing you for my own. I love you, but I'm willing to share." I say. "As for me, I still don't feel too good but I'm getting better."

[Valodya Bassarov]

"Then sit down and rest here for a while. You do look tired. Can I get you anything?"

[Lady Blue]

"Yes, food is food. I'd rather talk about what sort of political hell we could raise to discredit the Red Infinity leadership, especially that self-righteous Violet pregnant dog."

[Sherman "Sherlock" Holmes]

"Oh, by no means is she self rightous... she's just as greedy and power mad as the rest of the opportunists at Red Infinity." Holmes said. "As for what we can do to her... I think I have the solution."

Holmes pulled some photographs out of his pocket... pictures of Hikari. "That's Lady Violet's daughter... send a few pictures to Lady Violet in an unadressed envelope... fear for a loved one is a powerful weapon to be used on others."

I sit down in a chair and stretch out, and set my stuff on the floor beside me. "Some coffee would be nice." I state. I pick up the carton of filtered cigarettes. "I grabbed these for Mischa because I didn't know if he was up and about yet."

( I hope I'm right with the subway rebel base. The one underground. That's the last one I remember. )

I wake up to a dim light and a scratchy cot. As I rub my eyes and stand up, I look around for the entrance to the rebel base. Once I find it, I exit and wait tille my eyes get used to the sun. Once I find my favorite diner, I enter it and order a root beer. The drink arrives suprisingly fast, but I guess it was because of the lack of customers. As the refreshing liquid runs down my throat, I feel a burst of energy. When the root beer is gone and my stomach is sastisfied, I exit the diner, searching for something to do.

I wonder where Bass is. Maybe he'll have something for me to do.

[Zinn]

"Wyrm... breath!" Zinn says.

"Alright, now what's going on? Is something wrong with Antero?"

[Huey P. Newton]

"No problem, Bassarov. Always willing to help a friend."

Zero mentions Mischa and he remembers the incident. Huey grimaces.

"Yeah, I heard about that... how's Mischa holdin' up?" Huey asked.

[Lady Blue]

This time I scowl angrily. "No, that's just low. We want to attack her reputation, not threaten her stepdaughter. That'd just get us nuked and blasted by manala energy if we were lucky." I sit down at a table and look absently at the menu. "Didn't you dig up some dirt that she is in fact the 'father' of Iris Faust, and other things like that?"

[Valodya Bassarov]

Bassarov goes to the kitchen and makes some coffee for Zero.
"Oh he is doing well, we both returned from a walk so he seems to be coming around..."

[Sherman "Sherlock" Holmes]

"More than that... she's sleeping with Leon Trotsky from what I gather.

"Yes, she's the father of Iris faust... she transformed into a male to concieve Iris, only so she could be forced to become the operator of the Little Sister project, which according to Freak Boy's radio show is capable of reading our thoughts."

[Huey P. Newton]

"That's good to hear." Huey said, pulling out a cigar. He looked to Zero. "You don't mind, do you?"

["Zero" Americanski]

"I'm glad to hear it. Sometime I should talk to him, but not today. I'm too tired. So did the regeneration finish?"

[Valodya Bassarov]

"I've been trying not to talk about that with him. Instead we have been talking politics. It is sort of a taboo topic between us since well, it was my fault. But I am glad he has seen past my overall rotteness once again."

[Huey P. Newton]

"Man, you ain't rotten." Huey says, lighting his cigar since Zero didn't say anything. "You have your flaws like everybody else... ain't nobody who ain't got flaws. We all have our problems, be it drugs, lust or mental instability..."
