Led and Vic Thread PL: 46,251 and 12,910
Vic has the scouter equipped.
Ledinjin has the Bloodstone Pendant. With Vicarous's ship design taking fruition in developing its energy, Ledinjin and the Rebellion were on the verge of being able to return to Arcose! However, there was a massive set of issues they had to take care of before they returned home. Currently, they were far too weak to do anything for their people, and what's more, Gelu had vanished at a time they needed him! Things were dire, especially with Thaw's return to his normal self. Ledinjin made an error at some point in his life that led Thaw, a prodigy, become much more akin to a barbarian. He didn't know what led to this, but he needed to address it. Thaw was captured and turned into a murderous machine for the WTF, who slew new recruits in the Rebellion as they were recovering! The reason he was brought back was because of Carro Hofferson. Were it not for his efforts, many more would've undoubtedly died in Iron's wake! However, though Thaw was returned to himself before his attack against the WTF, he was still much like the barbarian Arcosians of old. Making antagonists out of possible friends was not something Ledinjin could let go. Nor, also, was Thaw's rampant desire of revenge! Thus, Ledinjin sent to his scouter a voice message, telling him they needed to sit down in front of everyone in the Rebellion and speak! Tensions were overwhelmingly high in the area, which caused MOOSE to enter active Sentry mode... Which was a terror in its own right. MOOSE ended up standing in his rear legs with his arms rotating around to bring out humanoid hands. The head of MOOSE changed in a way where the snout and horns covered the head akin to a helmet, with a humanoid face hiding behind it. MOOSE then entered cloaking mode as it ran around the base, lookibg for what was causing the high tension. Ledinjin and Vicarous, with RABBIT on Vic's lap, sat next to a fire at the center of camp. Vic and Ledinjin hadn't spoken a bit since the message went out to Thaw and Ledinjin informed them of what happened. The Kobachan twin veterans sat at their tent, stumps picked out by each. Gufi, as usual, manned the food cooking, although even the Majin felt the tension. The Niyusu family kept in their tents, fiddling with their custom made electronics in the father's lesson about interchangeable parts. Haval, the medical doctor, had maintained the usual demeanor, as this was every day for him. ThawWordcount: 420 Xp Prior to Post: 10,808

The truth was that Thaw never did get the message from Frost since he hasn't had a scouter since his time of being resurrected and his old scouter was completely lost in ruins. Right before he had arrived to the base, he had slaughtered a rather medium size WTF outpost which looked like the biggest crime scene. The blood of his enemies had mixed with the snow and the ship that they all had used was set ablaze with heavy black smoke lingering in the sky. No reinforcements were coming and all of their bodies were brutally destroyed along with every one of their scouters and communication devices.
Upon sensing Frost and Vic's power levels, he headed straight for them and discovering not one or two rebellion soldiers were with them, but many were with them. So many that he couldn't even count them all. All eyes were fixed on him, being serious and the tension and the atmosphere was indeed making the outdoor cold become hot as hell. Thaw looked to all of them just staring at him and awkwardly not knowing what to do. He had remembered what Frost had told him the last time that they had met, that they needed to talk. Thaw then focused his main attention to Frost and folded his arms across his chest.
"I destroyed a nearby World Trade Fleet Post. There army has only been growing."
His piercing sharp eyes stared at Frost, waiting to see what he was going to tell him. With this magnitude of the rebellion army all around him, he felt like he was the enemy and not a friend at the moment. They all had their stares at him like he had done something wrong. Even some of them couldn't fix their gaze at him when he stared into their eyes. This was indeed a situation he wasn't expecting to return to.
"Is there something that you wanted to talk about?"

Thaw arrived, scouter-less to the area. His energy presently open with Ledinjin and Vicarous also exposed, they didn't have much time to talk. However, they'd be able to assert this talk way before anyone had a mind to actually come here... Or, at least, they thought they would be able to.
"You took a base before coming here," Vicarous questioned aloud, "Why does this sound like a damn repeat of what happened before with that Chill guy?!"
"We don't have as much time as we'd like, then."
Nayu and Saiyu nodded with a grunt of agreement. Haval groaned and walked over to his medical tent immediately, the sounds of rummaging happening. Gufi, meanwhile, served up a bowl of vegetable and potato stew for Thaw. He silently held out to Thaw, a small smile (despite it still being larger than most smiles) given as he did.
"Thaw, I take it that you lost your scouter at some point and only traced us here with Vic and I exposing ourselves like this, so I'm going to keep this very short," Ledinjin spoke, gesturing to the bowl in Gufi's hand for the young Arcosian to take it, "You've become reckless in your search for revenge."
"Literally. Getting. You and BOSS," Vic spoke up, pointing at Thaw with one hand pointed at Thaw, while the other rubbed the head of RABBIT a tad aggressively, "KILLED AND REVIVED AS ROBOTS!"
"There'd obviously been much more that happened after that, but the fact that this recklessness happened is something we cannot have when we've been on the back pedal against the, as you've put it, strengthening WTF over the last century..."
He paused. MOOSE was approaching from 30 ft. behind, his energy masked as it got into observable distance. He was only visible due to the tread in the snow and the falling snow that vanished into water that dripped down the invisible form. Ledinjin was, however, trying to figure out what to say.
The old man asked, "Thaw, do you what you want to do when we take back Arcose and the Federation space from the WTF?"
Sorry about the delay, Thaw! Here's the post!

Vic had mentioned that him taking over a base would result in a same outcome. Which Thaw casually took into consideration as he focused his attention at the other members who eyed him. Then Gufi had approached him and handed him a bowl of food which he took and casually ate it in front of them. After consuming it in a matter of seconds, he handed it back to Gufi who took it away from him and walked away. After hearing that was said, he stepped towards Led and stared at him with a stern look.
"I can't changed the past because if I could I would."
He paused briefly for two seconds as he inhaled air.
"I grew up during the times of war. My father always told me that Boreal was someone to be feared. I have even have gone to outpost in other planets and aided them against the fight against the WTF and one soldier told me that I would never be able to beat him no matter how strong I get. I accepted that for years until I came down to this planet. The day I found out that Boreal was bested, it brought a huge relief off my shoulders. I have waited years of getting stronger in order to beat him but always found myself way behind. What I didn't realize, was that the world trade fleet had more stronger members. In fact there was a moment where we had captured Lord Chill and he was easily taken down by me. I didn't know that he had gotten stronger since then.
I know what I did is unforgivable. I will completely understand if you want me exiled or even killed. But I stand before you and everyone else here. I allowed my emotions to get in the way of it. I allowed my past to get in the way and I stand here. Telling you that I will never make that mistake again. I have only been going after much smaller camps lately instead of larger ones. Those that aren't a threat. I have gotten much stronger since then. I know that my trust is on the balance due to my recklessness. But I won't ever do it again."
Thaw had finished talking and waited to see what Frost and the others would tell him.

Thaw took and ate the food in mere seconds, clearly having been starved! After that, Thaw gave a speech about how he wanted to undo what happened and dismissing Ledinjin's question about what he wanted to do with his life after the war by talking about how he grew up with stories about Boreal. Ledinjin surmised this: He grew up too much in the soldier mindset. He was only thinking about the fights and nothing but.
"Thaw, there's much more to life than battles," Ledinjin told him, "I've been at this longer than anyone has.I've been born into this whole mess and have been in this position this entire life! However, I'm thinking ahead. Battles don't just end. They formulate once more in the right environment over and over again! It is life's means of getting us to evolve beyond where we stand today. However, these battles are in dozens of other forms aside from hunting and killing others..."
He pointed to Vicarous, saying, "He's fighting the same fights you are, but he is also being our mechanical inventor. He is planning on taking that brain and skill set of his to make... What was it, Vic?"
"The best damn mechanics shop in the universe!"
He got up and held up RABBIT, whose back feet dangled below as it waved with one paw waving at Thaw.
"This guy and Carro are gonna help me make that a reality, with Ledinjin and the rest of you guys as my clients."
"The Niyusu family, or at least Niyusu senior, plans to join that for sure. The kids are still deciding. Haval aims to be able to practice medicine and help others, not just us in the FPR. Then Saiyu and Nayu aim to be martial arts teachers that emphasize on defensive maneuvers."
He stopped again, to point at Thaw. He told him, his voice holding onto,that strong tone, "Mistakes happen, and that's a given. Consequences for mistakes as well. I am going to issue this warning now, Thaw: Figure out what you want to do with your life or all the crap that's happened, committed by yourself and what you got involved in, will come to bite you in a way no one can bring you back from the brink... We are going to Arcose soon, and if you choose to continue with us, you gotta think what you want to do with your life!"

Thaw had listened to everything that he had addressed and he finally decided to walk away from the FPR group and looked over his shoulder and staring at most of them and mainly Frost.
"I would love peace where I won't have to go out and risk my own life in order to cut their numbers down. I would love nothing more than to sit down and have a cup of tea and talk about war stories with the lot of you. But sadly i'm afraid, that reality won't ever happen i'm afraid. I grew up with both my parents telling me that I would one day be a good high ranked soldier for the FPR and be behind the scenes as a tactical genius where I am telling others what to do in the army. After all, children only live in fantasies for so long. My reality came crashing down when our direct enemies were the world trade fleet and the tyrant that was Boreal.
So I decided to give up my dream as a backstage leader. To allow other children of the FPR to grow up to have normal lives. That's the reason I do what I do. It may seem like a waste of time only going after outpost instead of the main bases. But I decided that I was going to make it my goal to stop their advances. That's probably why I drifted for nine years. The Fleet had a stronghold in nearby planets that I just couldn't ignore and allow them to attack us. So I did what I could at the time and helped neighboring planets fend off against the Fleet.
I keep fighting and continue to fight so that if I do have children some day, that they won't have to live in a world where the Fleet will be close by and do harm to them. Only after do we dismantle the Fleet, that's when I can finally retire from doing all this and have a cup of tea and relax. Yes, other factions and others alike will rise up in the shadows but until then, the Fleet will always be top dogs when it comes to villainy.
I have ranted long enough, Frost, I will meet you and the others on Arcose. I'm going to take a much needed nap."
Thaw headed over to a nearby tent and took his rest there as he suppressed his ki to "1,000"
