Nova looked around and saw Ip emerge from the stairwell and sit down. "Alright, the gang's all here," he thought to himself and made his way to the center of the room. Once again mustering his announcer voice and standing on a chair he began to talk. "Attention everyone! I know many of you have already heard the outline of my plan, and some of you I haven't said a single word to. But everyone needs to listen now. Tonight we break out of the city, starting by raiding the human settlement for their vehicles and fuel. How this will work is as follows: Jared, our human friend Himawari, and I will be equipped with these radio headsets." He held them up to demonstrate. "Their settlement is surrounded by a wall guarded by snipers, with the only entrance being a mechanical gate. Jared and I will scale this wall and incapacitate the snipers, keeping in contact through the radios. Once they are neutralized, we will open the gate and Himawari, in contact with us, will lead a force into the compound. You will enter as quietly as possible, for her mission is to throw canisters of what she claims is a sort of sleeping gas into their buildings, preventing them from being able to even know we're there. Once the gas has been released, we will acquire their vehicles and fuel, which I believe are all stored in the same building, and drive out of there as quickly as possible. Those who follow Himawari into the settlement should be prepared for a fight in case something goes wrong, but we must make every effort to prevent that. Everyone else will wait outside and load into the vehicles once they have been procured. Then it's just a matter of getting the hell out of here." He paused and looked around. "Right now, those of us already with our gear in order should make sure we all know each other, as communication and knowing our strengths will be key in the coming days. To everyone else," he gestured at the room full of the non-fighting furs around him, "pack up all your stuff and steel yourselves. Things like this never go as easily as planned."
