Jon awoke a few hours earlier on a medical bed with bandages wrapped around his torso, and a splitting pain that radiated down his left leg. He looked around and saw no one next to him besides other patients that were sick or something. He looked up at the ceiling, and thought of what a failure he was to the cause. He shouldn't have hesitated to kill Sarah, she was no longer who she once was, and he had tried to change that when he should have killed her.
"We're all going to die, and I could have stopped it all." Jon muttered to himself as he sat up in his bed, holding his bandages. The battle was a little hazy, but he knew Sarah had slashed him, and left him for dead. Luckly Tom was there and helped. He was dressed in a medical gown, his clothes were no where to be seen. Suddenly a woman, a smoothskin walked in and noticed him instantly.
"Oh no you don't! You stay in bed and rest, you've suffered serious injuries and are going to be out for a bit." The woman layed him down, and covered him up with the blanket. She probably thought that Jon was a zombie just like the others, but was nice enough to help, maybe not.
"Where is everyone? What happened to everyone?" Jon asked looking at the woman with his dead hollow eyes. Some hair fell off, but Jon didn't bother with it, it was a usual occurance with ghouls. Jon was the oldest ghoul that had not been tampered with by radiation. Tom was still the oldest, but only by a few years, but he was not a pure ghoul in some aspects.
The woman took some notes, and took his tempurature and wrote it down, then walked off into another room. Several other patients were moaning and talking with one another, some about Jon, but he didn't mind it at all. It was all good what they were talking about anyway. As soon as the woman was out of sight, Jon leapt to his feet, and hurried out the other door the woman had come into. Next to the door were several lockers with names on them. He looked at them, and found his name. This must have been where they kept patients clothes until they were released from the infurmary. Jon didn't have time to dress so he just walked off up the stairs to the security room in the conning tower. Harkness was probably out on his patrol, and Tom was no where to be seen at the moment. Probably messing with his ghouls or something.
Jon felt bulkier, and realized that Tom had pumped him with some radiation while he was out. It gave Jon a more muscular tone and body mass. He quickly slipped into a changing room for the security in Rivet City, and put on his Combat armor, and placed his two pistols in their holsters. Jon quickly realized his M14 was gone, and along with it, a clip of his Depleted Uranium rounds. He would have to go out into the wasteland, and get his two footlockers full of the Depleted Uranium rounds, and his spare M14 and a new suit of armor. Jon quickly slipped back out of the changing room, and hurried down to the door where they had probably entered. Harkness was there, standing on patrol with another security officer, he didn't know her name.
He ignored the two, and walked across the bridge when Officer Harkness ran over. Jon turned around, and looked up at Harkness a little worried he might send him back to the infurmary.
"Jon! I was going to give this to Tom, but since I found you first." Harkness pulled a small sheet of paper from under his armor, and handed it to Jon. "I didn't think they were letting you out of the infurmary so early, must be making a stellar recovery?" Harkness added as Jon read the letter, looking up at him, then returning to the letter.
//From: Elder Lyon's//
//To: Jon or Tom//
//Message: Agreement//
// Dear Jon or Tom,
Several of my patrols have reported what you say is true. My Knights and Paladins have been on high alert, and are now bringing refugee's to the Citadel from the wasteland. I have been given several reports that Eli and Sarah have been seen moving around, one of them seemed to be injured severly. This may be a lucky break for us. When you get this, please know that the Brotherhood is on your side until the end.
//Transmission: Over//Jon handed the paper back to Harkness, and continued walking off. Harkness looked confused as Jon continued walking.
"What should I do with this?" Harkness asked looking over at the other officer.
"Give it to Tom, let him deal with it. For the moment, I have to go somewhere." Replied Jon quickening his pace.
"Let me send some guards with you, for security?"
"No! I can not let anyone know about this place." Jon replied turning around quickly, and jolting it out.
"You'll need help out there, you can't do this alone." Harkness demanded. Jon just kept walking, but decided it would be best for them if he allowed them to come.
"Fine, hurry them up." Jon said standing at the other end of the bridge, crossing his arms and tapping his foot on the ground. Harkness looked at the other officer, and quickly she ran off to grab another guard. Jon stood, irritated at allowing them to come. This place had been a secret for many years, Jon had been very careful not to allow anyone to know about this place, but this was a poinent time, and something needed to be done.
Two guards quickly returned, and followed Jon as he made his way to his secret place. The way was very confusing to the two guards, making strange left and right turns, then circling back, and then going off in a tangent path, it was all very confusing, they would forget what they saw.
OOC: Since Jon isn't a super character like the rest of you, and I don't plan on him becoming one, I've got to have something that can stop Eli and Sarah
