fandomhigh | Revolutions: Week 9 Period 5

Aly was perched on top of her desk again as she watched the students come into the classroom.

"I hope you didn't miss me too much last week though it sounds like Bridge was an excellent substitute." She grinned at Bridge. "I'm sorry to say I don't have pie for you all. Hopefully you won't hold it against me."

"Today we're going to switch things up a bit. This whole semester we've focused on what it's like from the revolutionaries' standpoint. But I spent the past week in my country looking at things from a different angle - from that of the reigning government."

"So today, in small groups or pairs, I'd like you to react to a scenario as you would if you were the government of a country. Go in with all your guns blazing, try to talk to the dissidents, infiltrate them, try to capture them and ship them off into exile, it's up to you. Once you decide a plan of attack, I'm going to tell you how the revolutionaries react to your plan and you can respond once more."

"I'm sorry to tell all you strictly democratic souls, but today, you're all representatives of a monarchy. Your intelligence service has brought information to you of a lost 'true heir' to the throne being spoken about in the streets. A coalition of mainly merchants - your middle class - has started to form around this supposed heir, and the people of the streets seem to be turning towards that banner."

She grinned. "You all have quite good instincts from the stirring things up side, let's see how you do when your objective is order in your country. Any questions?"

"It's awkward," Bel admitted. "The Source really screwed with him." He didn't mean it literally, but that applied, too.

"He did. But that didn't stop Anders from worrying about you," she pointed out.

"Not sure why he did," Bel mumbled, finding the floor utterly fascinating.

"For the same reason I did. You're our friend," Isabel said firmly, reaching up to poke his arm.

"Thanks," Bel said, lifting his head. "That means a lot."

"I meant it," she smiled. "But I think you still owe me a hug."

Which Bel was more than happy to give.

"It's good to see you," Isabel repeated, returning the hug.

"It's good to be back," Bel said in relief. "And I'm glad you're back, too."

"I'm glad to be back," she admitted. "I missed this place."

"Where'd you go?" Bel asked. "Anders wasn't really much with the details."

Isabel looked down, "Back to Antar."

"Not a good trip?" Bel said, frowning. "Do I need to shimmer there and beat somebody up?"

"You can shimmer again?" she asked, grabbing the subject change with both hands and holding on tight. "How'd that happen?"

"I kinda picked up some powers while I was in the Wastelands," Bel admitted. "I can shimmer, and I can do a few other things, too."

"Oh? Anything useful?" Isabel asked, raising her eyebrow. "And does this mean the demonic taxi service is back in business?"

"Back in business," Bel grinned. "It looks a little different when I do it, but it works the same. And I can heal myself. And I kinda turned Anders into a watercooler."

"A watercooler?" she boogled. "Why?"

"He pissed me off and it was the first thing to come to mind?" Bel said sheepishly.

Shaking her head, Isabel rolled her eyes. "You know, it's things like this that really help me remember I'm home."

"I turned him back," Bel pointed out, which was kind of obvious since Anders was in the class.

"Good. Otherwise I would have had to kick your ass," she threatened.

"I can heal gunshots, I think I can handle that," Bel grinned.
