Resistance: Holly's Conscience.

"Yes Captain." Said Justin and saluted.
"Zere is another prisoner I need you to interrogate."
Justin looked unsure. He glanced at Kara who had a beaming face of
confidence, she nodded at him to spur him on.
"Yes Captain. Whatever you say Captain." Justin said.

"Rosette!" Efof yelled as he came into Resistance HQ. They'd already
seen him get dragged off, so there was plenty of custard to hand for
him to regenerate his now missing appendages.
"oh god, not again." she said, rushing to help him. It was fortunate
for them that Efof could regrow limbs and other body parts purely by
the use of Custard, but it was still unfortunate that he had to go
through the pain every time. Since this had started, she wondered
which would come first... Either he'd develop an allergy to custard,
or he'd be able to deal with the pain. You get used to things you
experience all the time.
"I heard something while i was there. I thought you'd want to know."
Efof said as he thrust his stump of an arm in the vat of custard.
"Oh? You picked up some intel?" Rosette asked, hoping it was news
about Castillo going to a secluded location that would be a very easy
target. Currently she wasn't going anywhere without tonnes of
bodyguards that made even an ambush a difficult move to pull off
properly.
"They're going to torture Rufus to get Holly back on their side." Efof
said, and put a hand on Rosette's shoulder when he saw her normal
cheerful expression change to one of sheer horror.
"Thanks Efof. You're a lifesaver." She said, hugging him before
grabbing her gun. "I need three more to pull this off. Need a
diversion, and someone to help get him out if we're too late." She
said, loading the weapon with new batteries.
"I'll help!" Efof piped up, but Rosette shook her head. "You've done
enough for today. you need to rest and get your hand back."
"Seymour! Change of plan. We need to get Rufus out now, he's being
taken to an interrogation room right now. Holly could turn against
us." She said, grabbing him, Davie and Amber.
"Davie. You and Seymour are playing diversion. Draw the guards away
so we can get in. The vents in the interrogation room are too small
to crawl through, for this exact reason." She said, pulling them all
together. "We have to be fast. Rufus isn't physically strong enough
to hold out for long.
"Also, Davie? If we win this one, i'll make sure you get a position
in my security team. You've done good so far. Anyone got any
questions?" She said, making sure everyone was ready to go and save
the young genius.
