[b]Bex - Outpost - Matt/Enrique[/b]

For Bex, it had been a difficult task getting up this morning. His head rocked with pain after having spent the night drinking. Although alcohol was scarce in Outpost and Reggie was intolerant of it being consumed by his scouts, some of the scouts who managed to procure themselves a stash anyway had been nice enough to share some of it with Bex. With Reggie and most of the scouts out on a night mission, it had been a night of unwinding and letting off stress for the rest of them. For Bex, it had been a bit more than that; It was hard for him to stop drinking once he started and the night had ended in a bleary daze.

He almost died in the morning when Tyler awoke him (Or at least it [i]felt[/i] that way). The man had a serious look set onto his brow and he was curt in telling Bex to head to the administrative building. Whatever Tyler needed him for, Bex knew he couldn't blow it off as a hangover was a shameful excuse. Sluggishly, Bex dressed himself and left the cabin in a hurry. Tyler was waiting for him at the entrance to the administrative building where he then led the way inside.

"There's a plan set in motion," Tyler said as they walked. "One that'll help me gain some favor around here."

Bex stopped in his tracks and Tyler gave him an annoyed look. "What kind of plan?" Bex asked, warily.

Tyler shook his head. "I had Enrique plant something that will mean bad things for our friend Reggie. He has a lot of influence around here, so naturally he needs to be taken down a peg." Tyler stared, waiting for Bex to say something, but Bex had no idea what to say. This was really sudden. He had thought Tyler had changed, but here he was making dirty plans. Bex's head hurt way too much to process this.

"Why do we need to gain favor?" he finally asked.

Tyler stepped forward, getting close to Bex. His eyes stared him down and it took a large effort for Bex to focus. "I need to get my daughter back. Those Haywood monsters have her. They raided us and took my daughter away. They probably have the vile Lauren with them as well." Bex felt his stomach flip at the mention of Lauren. Or maybe that was the hangover. He finally gave in and rubbed at his sore head. 

"And you want the scouts to lead an attack," Bex said. "I guess Reggie is already aiming to take down that one gang, so attacking another gang isn't all that different..."

Tyler smiled at this. "Yes. I'm glad you understand. All I'm doing is ensuring we get to my daughter as fast as possible." Tyler then turned around, leading Bex further into the building. They soon entered a room that looked like it had been turned into a makeshift classroom. Desks and tables of different shapes were littered about the room and a whiteboard had been put up in front of them. This must have been one of the language classes.

In the room stood a man who seemed to have been waiting for them. Tyler introduced Bex to him and Bex learned that the man was named Matt. He was in on all of this, it seemed. In a few minutes, Enrique arrived, prompting Tyler to start whatever this all was. Bex tried to avoid wincing in pain while Tyler talked.

"Rudy has the book for now, but I doubt he'll notice anything off with it. Very good work with that, Enrique." He gave the man a nod before continuing. "As for Samantha, I believe she was caught last night, though she had been courteous enough to lead whoever found her away from us. This is probably for the best, because, well..." Tyler now gave Bex a pointed look. "I think she'll be the one. All right, Enrique?" Bex looked confusedly from Tyler to Enrique. He felt like there was something he was missing here. 

"I don't care how it's done, because it doesn't really matter in the end."
