"Please don't disappear like that again." Clover said, her voice wavy. Tamara almost noticed her voice immediately. "Wow wow, Clover, hun, it's okay. Don't cry." She said, cupping Clover's face with her hands. "It's okay, I'm here now." She assured her. Clover teared up and hugged her tightly, hiding her face against Tamara's dress. The woman obviously didn't care as she let her cry, comfortingly stroking her hair.

"God you've gotten so big. You're so tall now." Tamara said softly. "How old are you now? Eighteen?" Tam joked. Clover giggled and sniffled. "You know I'm fifteen, Tam." "Ah, that's right. Fifteen." She smiled and nodded. "How old are you now? Fifty?" Clover joked back. "WOWWWW. Wow wow now. I am not fifty you little gremlin. I am no where near fifty." Clover just laughed and laughed at her reaction which made Tamara smile happily.

"Come on. Let's keep moving. We don't want anyone to catch us." She said, leading the way. "Now, you're gonna have to show me how to get to the green base. Cause I absolutely have no idea where it is." She chuckled. "Don't worry. I'll be able to to get us then." Clover nodded.

Once the whole party room was empty everything could be seen as trashed. Tori grumbled angrily to herself as she paced around. Paula, Patricia, and Patryck stood off to the side while Tom, Tord, and Paul entered the room. While looking for Tamara, after getting separated, Tord ended up running into his little group again. Patryck went to continue looking for the others while the other three went to go find out what the problem was. "Well? What happened." Tori growled. "No idea. We have some soldiers looking at it and looking around the base." Paul explained while Tord was busy looking around at the room. The lights had been back on now that the guests had fled. Now all that was left was the clean up, figuring out what happened, and the announcement to the public about what had happened. "Urhggg. Damn rebels. It was probably those bastards." Tori cursed. "Most likely." Tom agreed politely with a nod. "Anyone find Tam?" Patryck asked softly. Everything was silent as they all shook their heads 'no.' Tord sighed. That would usually earn him a stern look from Tori since it was along the topic of Tamara, but she seemed far too busy pacing around.

"What's that?" Patricia asked Paula. The two walked over, though none of them really paid attention. "We'll have to find her then. I bet the rebels took her." Paul claimed. "No, the rebels hate her guts. Especially Edd." Tom disagreed. "I'm not so sure about that. I think it's just Edd that hates her guts." Tord disagreed. "Whatever. That isn't important right now." Scarlet Leader interrupted. "What is important is that we figure out what happened. Get it out to the public. Make sure it never happens again. And talk to the rest of the guests from the party." Tori stated. "Paula, Patricia, come on let's go." She ordered and started to walk to one of the doors. When she didn't hear them behind her she stopped nad glanced back. "Paula. Patricia. Come on." She said a bit more aggressively, her patience clearly running thin. "Tori we-" Patricia started before Tori snapped at them to hurry up and come on. Patricia looked as if she wanted to shrink down and stood behind Paula as if that would help her. "Ma'am." Paula stated. "We found something." "God." Tori scoffed. "What is it?" Paula them held out a visor. The same visor Tom had. The only other person with one of those was Tamara.

The others gave a surprised look. So that scream had come from Tamara, Tord thought. Tori sighed, frustrated. "Tord. Take that. Figure out who took it off her. Paula, Patricia, come with me. We're going to see if they figured out what happened." She said a lot more calmly. The two girls nodded. Paula handed off the mask before following Tori.

"So Ell's been taking care of you?"

"Yeah. Well, her and Edd and Matilda." Clover listed. "How about Matt?" Tamara asked. "Not really. He's scary anyways." Clover claimed. The soldier chuckled. "He really isn't, Clover. You just gotta get used to him. Though... I do guess he has probably changed now..." She said with a tone of sadness. Clover nodded a bit. "But I'll try to get used to him! I promise!" She said, trying to cheer up the other. Tamara smile lightly and pat her head. "Thanks hun."

"So, what have you been doing while I was gone?"

"Nothing much.. Hanging out with everyone, sneaking out and following Edd out of the base, spying on meetings in the base." Tamara snickered how she just stated it directly how it was. "I get spying in on the meetings but you gotta stop sneaking out. That's not safe. That's how you're going to get caught by some soldiers."

"Well I get bored super easyyy. And when Edd leaves the base late at night it's usually just to go on a walk to think. So I like to try to sneak up on or see what he's up to." Clover explained. Tam gave a confused look. "He didn't do that last time I was there. What's he doing all that for?"

"I have no idea. Last time he went on a walk he was watching that one recruiting hologram of you and Tord. Ya know the one with the two other soldiers too." Clover explained. "He caught me after that and then we talked about you a bit."

After hearing all of that Tamara ended up looking away and just forward. "So... has he told you? Has anyone told you about... you know.." She said softly. Clover gave a very confused look and chuckled a bit. "You gotta be most specific than that." The female shook her head 'no.' "No. I doubt he's told you then. Don't worry about it."

"Tamara.. I-" As Clover started to speak they both stopped, hearing s noise from the alley parallel to them. "Get behind me." Tamara stated, grabbing her gun already. When Clover didn't budge and narrowed her eyes to try to see into the alley better Tamara stated it more sternly. "Clover. Behind me now." She did as told and stood behind her. Steps could be heard in the alleyway until the person could be see. Speak of the devil. Well wasn't their a say that if you'll talk about the devil he'll appear? In the light now stood Edd. Though of course that wasn't much light, considering it was night and the city was only lit up by a few street lights and the many electronics.

"Edd." Tamara said, loosening her grip on her gun.

"Tamara." He said back, coldly staring at her. "Clover come on. We're leaving." He claimed. Clover peaked out from behind the female and at Edd. "What? But what about Tamara?"

"Clover. Come on. I'm not asking twice." He said, a hint of aggression in his voice. Though it was more like a frustration aggression. Clover did as told and went over to Edd. She looked sadly back to Tamara.

Tamara smiled softly. "Hey, it's okay.. I'll see you around, okay?" She softly kissed the top of her head. "Tell the others I said hi." She said to the teenager before backing up and looking at Edd one last time before turning and walking away.

The black haired girl looked back to Edd who narrowed his eyes as he watched Tamara walk off. "Please." That caught his attention. He looked down to Clover again. "We can't just leave her out here. She's clearly injured Edd! And what was it about helping people and doing what was right? Isn't that what the rebellion is for.... I know there's something you're clearly not telling me. You're both clearly not telling me." Edd just silently looked away again. "Didn't you say you would do "anything you could" to try to get her back." She reminded him. The male sighed. "Tamara!" He called.

The female stopped walking, still in view. She looked back at them. He looked away from her eyes but made a 'come here' motion with his hand.

Clover grinned happily. Tamara smiled softly back to her as she walked back over to them. The younger girl hugged Edd tightly which got a silent hug back from him.

Next thing you know they were all off to the green base now.
