Peter spent close to half an hour running his hand through his hair, trying to remember, to think. The girls were important. To him or the world or something, he wasn't sure what but he was sure that they were important. Why now? He hadn't seein' things since he was a kid, not since before college, why had it started again now?
Was this linked to the LIF that Hope kept talking about? He'd gathered they were the ones who put the machines inside of him, made him a killer, but he didn't think they took his memories. Something else did that.
He knew the girls, he was sure. One of them more so. It was kind of like when he first saw Hope, he was just sure. Maybe if he'd been able to see their faces, he could remember.
He rose with a groan, his muscles tight and stiff. "I don't know what you want me to do, God... but I'm going to trust you for now." The girls were important... he had to find them. He Slipped his gun into the waist band of his pants, at the base of his spine, and picked up his walking stick. Sore or not, he wasn't tired anymore. He'd see if he could find something to eat here, some water, and then... well, he'd figure that out soon enough.

"Good to have you back, Void."
I say, happy to have someone to take the focus off of me and then wander away into the kitchen to get something to eat... Naturally, there isn't very much there, we really should go grocery shopping later. But despite this I manage to find some cookies in the pantry, and a soda that resembles Coke closely enough that I'm not terribly afriad to drink it in the fridge.

Lena followed Lana off the train, walking a bit wobbly at first but it quickly faded as she regained her balance. "Your memory's fuzzy, right? Don't worry, mine was too at first. If you're like me, you'll get flashes, so don't be alarmed or anything." Lana explains, having woken up before Lena on the train to regain her memory before going back to sleep, knowing how Lena was feeling.
Lena nodded slowly as they exited the train station. As they pass be some vending machine, a image of some man appears in her head. She blinks and shakes her head to clear the man's face from her mind, but it does little. She got the feeling this man was important to her.. She just couldn't place how, or why.
"We're going to the rebels.. correct?" Lena decides to question Lana instead of worrying over who was who, since if Lana was correct, her memories would return soon. Lana nods as they proceeded down the street. "Yeah, I supposed that it's the best plan of action we can do right now."

Peter pushed open the door to the hallway, his stick over his should as he stepped into the main room again. "I'm going out," was all he said as he stepped quickly towards the exit and hit the outside air. The sun had moved it's position, but not a great deal of time had passed since he went down.
What am I doing? Even if that was a vision, I don't know when or where or anything else exept that there's two girls on a train. Two sisters on a train. Yes, their sisters... I can... almost remember...
Peter shook he head and set off. He knew where the train station was, that's how he'd gotten to Helsinki in the first place. He just had to trust in a higher power for now.

"Where are they?" Lena questions as she stops on the street with Lana. "Oh, well I'm not sure.. I hope they're still in the same place as before.. Our best bet is to check there." Lana states as she glances around, she may have her memories back, but she was fuzzy on where the rebels were.
As Lena looked down the street on her right, she saw some golden hair in the crowd and suddenly felt like running toward it. She blinks and shakes her head, she was being silly.. if she really knew whoever she thought was in the crowd, then that person would come toward her if they were a friend. She was so fuzzy on memory, she didn't want to risk running up to some Red Infinity agent she might've known in the past.

Peter stopped on the corner, and had the odd feeling that someone was watching him. He glanced slowly around but just then, the wind picked up, blowing his shirt back and revealing the handgun in his waist band. The Red Guard on the corner opposite him noticed.
The uniformed guard lowered his rifle on Peter. "Hands in the air!" Months of experience told him not to do that, so Peter dashed for it, racing into the crowded street. The guard gave chase, and Peter could see another farther up the street coming towards him. Son of a... This is what came of following stupid visions!
Peter hit something, well, someone, quite hard. He planted his stick, trying to keep from falling over and looked up. He'd run into a blonde girl and very nearly knocked her over. He froze when he saw her face. She was the girl from his vision! Memories danced at the edge of his mind, almost within his grasp, but another shout from behind him brought him back to reality.
"Sorry!" He shouted, and then ran again. He couldn't outrun them on foot like this, he couldn't balance right with only one arm... so he swallowed, and flipped the mental switch to the machines in his body. His next running step landed ten feet from his last, then next twelve from that one. He was practically flying through the crowd, not noticing the people being pushed aside as he rushed past.
He blew by the second guard, a bullet rining just behind his head as he did, and kept going. Think later, escape now!

Lena's eyes widened when some ran into her, hard. She almost fell over, but caught her balance just in time. When she looked up to see who had ran into her, her breath caught in her throat. He looked like the man who she couldn't get out of her head, but different..
Was he the same person? Before she could collect her thoughts, the man ran off, a guard right after him. Lana's eyes widened, as she begun to take off after the man, but stopped. She wanted to help him, but knew she couldn't.
"Come on Lena, I think we should get to where we're going, quick." She says, careful not to let the word rebel escape her lips. Lena nods in a slight daze as she begins to follow after Lana who was now walking at a quick pace, rather nervous.

Peter outdistanced the guards in no time, but they'd no doubt sent around his ID. Every guard in the city would know what to look for... now Peter was standing in a back alleyway, trying to think of what to do. Well, he had to change cloths, that was for sure. But the arm... how many one armed guys were there in the city? Likely, not many that matched his description.
Just have to do what I can...
Ten minutes later he was sporting a dull gray shirt and brown worn pants, and a homeless man was wearing his cloths. The guy'd been perfectly willing to trade. Best thing was, the shirt had nice long sleeves, so the arm wouldn't be noticable at a distance. Now, he just had to get back to the base...

Lena followed Lana silently as they entered what appeared to be some subway. Lana looked around, hoping to find some other rebels. "Hello?" She calls questioningly.

"I swear that I will no longer lead the rebels and that I will disassociate myself from the movement. I will go out into the forest and never be seen or heard from again." Bassarov replies, and he is prepared to do this.

Rinku smiled. "I'm sure after a little rest, you'll be as good as new." he said. "Everyone has started off the wrong foot due to whatever happened that made everyone confused. So just wait a little while..."

"Done." said Saber standing. "Of coruse you do know what will happen if you break our bargin. I shall come, and I will eliminate you. Got that?" he said as he walked to the cage. He knew that Bassarov will totally agree with it but he wanted to make sure before he opened the cage.

Bassarov climbs out of the cage and steps down next to Mad Hatter. His legs are stiff from being in that cage for a couple of days. "Fine, I understand the agreement."

Saber nods and turns around, his cape waving behind him. "Then let us go." Saber lead Bassarov down the stairs and to a built in teleportation booth. he opened the door and stood nears the doorway. "After you..." he said with a cracked smile.

Bassarov says nothing and enters the teleportation booth. He isn't sure where he will end up, but remains quiet and lets Mad Hatter take things fro here.
