Hey, hey, hey! Sylvia's a crewmate! Wonder who the faker is...

Because this one can only happen if Henry is the leader, there's no need for Delara to have kinder dialogue for Henry and because this is a short one too, I'll just knock it outta here.

Also, I guess since people aren't choosing which for me to do next, I'll choose whatever I want...

><><><

Gregory had told Delara it was time to go. Before she did, she told Henry one last thing before leaving.

" 'ope stabbin' my back was worth it..."

Henry got up and gently moved Gregory away so he can watch Delara go. A tear had left his eye as she got further away from him, but no one saw it.

As soon as Henry was in his cell, he started thinking.

"Okay, Henry. Pull yourself together. Things aren't going EXACTLY as planned, so we'll change it. Step one will be to break out of this cell. Step two will be to contact the clan. Once I'm sure they all trust me, we'll break Delara out of here and make her a member. I wonder if she's... I'll find out after things are settled."

With a new plan set in stone, Henry went through his pockets. He was amazed they didn't check him for things he could have on him.

Seriously, they should have.

He pulled out a sonic pulse gun (sure, we'll go with that), a magic cookie, a laser cutter, and...

"Hell no," he said as he put the teleporter away. Seriously, why does he still have this thing? "L-l-let's try... This."

He was a little scared of the laser cutter, but it had proven to be useful to him as he fell out of his cell and on top of a guard... Anyways, he was about to dial Reginald, but something more important came to mind.

Somewhere that's about a six-hour flight from The Wall at full speed, depending on X amount of things, the phone had rung where a guy in a puffball hat picked up.

"Yo, yo, yo, this is Puffball speaking."

"P-Puffball..."

"Henry!? Where the flying fuck are you!?"

"A c-c-complex called Th-The Wall..."

"Yikes... I know exactly where that is, but I don't think I can pick you up..."

"Y-you don't have to... I-I-I wanted to check up on you and m-m-m-m-m- you know..."

"We're okay, Henry... She misses you a lot..."

"I know... J-j-just sit tight a little l-l-longer, okay? M-m-my plan has some s-sn-snags in it, but it's almost f-f-f-f-f-... complete. Th-thanks again, Puffball..."

"Hey... Anything for you, man..."

Once that call was over, Henry had called Reginald to pick him up. An hour had passed when the airship arrived. With a pod to open the way back to the airship.

A slingshot, a magnet, and Henry's scooter.

Henry trusted his scooter a lot, which proved to be in the right. He had made it to the airship where Reginald caught him...

...but he didn't pull him up...

"See, without you, I become the leader of Toppat Clan again," he said with a smile. "I just wanted to look you in the eyes, as I take it all back. Goodbye."

Just like that, Reginald had let go of Henry.

Henry's life flashed before his eyes as he fell to the water below. His parents, his grandmother, his friends...
