Day of Revolution - Part III

- Atlacall: Ethereal HQ
        Briefing Room -

- Two days later -

-It's a humid morning of clear skies at Atlacall. As Vern enters the briefing room, he sees Lux, Klaus, Jade and Tora all sitting in their usual spots. He walks to the furthest wall, then turns to face everyone before giving them a nod in greeting-

Vern:
Good morning, everyone. I hope you all slept well.

Lux:
Not with J's loud ass snoring.

Jade:
'Cuse me? You're the one who snores loud as shit.

Tora:
You did snore a little loud, Lux...

Lux:
Shut up, Tora. Whose side are you on? Mine, or Purple Drizzle over there?

Tora:
I-I was just tryna say that it was a little loud, that's all.

Lux:
Your dumb ass decided to sleep with us, now you wanna complain? I'll fuck you up.

Jade:
Fuck off, Lux. You ain't doin' shit.

Lux:
That a bet?

-Vern raises his right eyebrow as he glances at everyone in slight concern-

Vern:
Is everything alright?

-Lux casually leans back in his chair, and speaks to Vern acting as if nothing happened-

Lux:
Yeah, we cool. Why you askin'?

Vern:
Hm. Pardon me. I asked you all here to-

-Klaus suddenly raises his hand and shouts to get Vern's attention, heightening his voice so that it's in a high pitch tone-

Klaus:
'CUSE me, guard! Let me out, I gotta shit!

Lux:
We ain't in the clank no more, Klaus. And you had a shitter in there, so shut the hell up. If you've gotta shit, go do it.

-Klaus stays silent for a moment, then slowly lays his head on the surface of table-

Klaus:
I don't gotta go anymore...Continue on with your speech, fearless leader.

Vern:
Thank you. I asked you all here to first give you your pay and give you some of the weapons and supplies we found in the warehouse. Miss Zelterra.

Tora:
Mhm, I gotcha!

-Tora places a black duffel bag on the table then pushes it to Lux, who then grabs it and unzips it to looks inside-

-Lux and his squadmates received $2,500,000. Due to equal sharing, Lux receives $833,000, and also receives new weapons, gear, and items that you can check in the inventory menu-

Lux:
'Ey, good shit.

Vern:
It is only right to pay you for your hard work. Now onto our next step. From here, we will continue to take cities and towns in this state, when we finally have enough military power, we turn our attention to the Silver Baron.

Jade:
Meriport was in the Alimoor, right?

Vern:
Yes, that's correct. Taking the state is our true goal, it will show we are not to be underestimated, despite what Baron Dunham said on the news.

Lux:
He said some other shit, right? Fuck do we care?

Vern:
By saying we are "dangerous creatures" on the news does not give us full recognition. The AAF has dealt with dangers like this before, even though no group has officially taken a city before us. We must push harder.
