Woodrow freezes at the sound of the generalist mutant remarks, sighing. He begins to speak, in a calm tone, trying to defuse the situation...
"Look, I'm not one of those 2nd Generation Failures... I retain my ability to speak... my ability to reason. Can't you see that?"
He turns his head to the side a little, awaiting a response, but before one could be given he cuts in another sentence.
"I may look like a monster... or a freak, as people tend to look at me.. but I'm not here to harm you. If you attack me now, I will only turn and flee... and who's the monster then, huh?"
Woodrow breathes uneasily, shaking a little, hoping for a positive response...

Jacob heared the Insults and became more angry as he heared them:
"It's a mutant, boys, watch out."
"Damn right it's a mutant! You might be best pals with mutants where you come from Jacob, but round here they ain't too friendly. Jesus, what the hell has it got on it's hands?"
"How the hell do you kill a plant? Does it even have a brain?"
He walked towards Woodrow and stood before him and drew his gun, pointing him from Dave to Liam and back again
Ef yuh want to hurt dis beautifull Ting, Yuh haffi shoot trough mi first, Babylon Minions
then Ray picked side too, kneeling before Jacob with his Trail Carbine also aimed at the other too, and he spoke
Nobody is shooting Jacob and live's to tell it if I'm still walking on this earth
they all picked side's now, except Marylin, this could become a bloody situation if they didn't watched out ...

Marilyn looked at both sides, and walked next to Liam.
"Sorry, Jacob. It could hurt us, now get over here!"
Liam moved his brush gun to aim at Jacob.
"Your move, creep."

Dave looked at the huge creature, head cocked to one side. He was frozen for a while, then shrugged, put away his revolver and went over to stand by Marilyn, and lit a fresh cigarette.
"From what I know of mutants, If they don't try to bash your heads in within the first five seconds of seein' you, then they ain't gonna hurt you. Put your gun down Liam, that big green bastard ain't doin' anythin' and mutants is too dumb to try anythin' sneeky".

Slightly insulted, Woodrow contradicts his statement.
"The first FEV Subjects were designed for stealth... the Enclave's harsh conditioning made sure of that. Anyhow, if you are unwillingly to let me be and stay among you for a while, I will leave. Two innocent men should not die for me, especially men of a tribe I have been trying to aid of late..."
Woodrow looks at Liam, his eyes and expression slightly gourmless, but showing a sign of a pleading emotion.
"Maybe.. maybe 2nd Generation was a wrong way to phrase what I originally said. The "2nd Generation of FEV Subjects, or mutants as are commonly called, are the ones who's minds became defunct after their transformation.. the ones incapable of proper speech and reasoning. I believe that you, now, can surely see I am not one of the crude, tire-sporting, merciless poor fools that have no way of even trying to communicate with you."
Woodrow stops, awaiting a response from Liam, hoping for him to understand.

Jacob looked straight into the eye's of Liam while whispering to Ray, he nodded and they both put away their guns. After that Ray stood up standing next to "The Plant Man" and Jacob spread his arms and spoke to Liam while still looking into his eye's
Aai Mi Rude boi, Show mi ow Though yuh are, Shooting at people who dohn shoot bak and ting, Murdera
Then he heared what Dave said
that big green bastard ain't doin' anythin' and mutants is too dumb to try anythin' sneeky".
his head quickly turned to Dave and his look to him wasn't so kind, then he looked to Marylin and his face turned sad as he spoke
I am sorry,But i won't want to travel wid dis group Nuh mo, I leave. Tree mon, lets go, i ave unfinished Tings in Novac, Ray yuh wid me?
Ray just nodded to Jacob and While they left off to leave, Ray looked back one time looking at Marylin, Liam and especialy Dave when he shook his head from left to right.
They walked for a couple of hour's making it already late afternoon when they Arived in Novac, they made up camp on theoutskirts of it, chilling the rest of that day in their camp, resting. Tomorow would be a day for clues
Mr Coltrane entered Novac that same day, but he spent the whole day in the improvised bar Where Samantha was bartender, Playing his Saxophone. when he was done he walked towards Samatha and said
Hello Madam, I guess you haven't got one spare drink for this Old musician?
Samantha placed one hand on her hip and shifted her weight to one side and said
Okay sure, but then you will have to tell me your whole life story tomorow, otherwise no drinks on the house old man
They Both agreed on this and James had free drinks that night, while playing the saxophone, they agreed that they would meet tomorow 12:00 o'clock near the Dino Gift shop, after Mr Coltrane was done drinking, he walked outside and layed his bedroll under the Dino gift shop to stay dry if it would get wet, he slept, but rather uncomfy and he would wake up early that day, too early.

Liam was fuming, he completely ignored Dave and Marilyn, and walked to Novac after Ray and Jacob. Jacob especially. He caught up to them at Novac, and walked up to Jacob, and punched him in the face.
"Murderer, eh?"
Marilyn ran up to Liam and stood in front of him trying to calm him down.

Dave stood next to Marilyn, watching the three men.
When Jacob and Ray left with the mutant, and Liam stormed off after them, Dave turned to Marilyn and shrugged
"Looks like we better follow your brother, I've gotta feelin' he's lookin' for trouble'
He followed Liam to Novac, and watched him punc Jacob square in the jaw. He shifted from one foot to the other, unsure of what to do

Woodrow sighs, the whole time trying to get Jacob and Ray to leave him be. Unsuccessful in this, Jacob is attacked by Liam and Woodrow feels responsible.
"Your quarrel is not with these men. You are appalled by my appearance, unsympathetic to my condition.. only natural for a wastelander, I'd be doing the same. But please, I'm asking you.. leave these men be, and I will be gone."
Woodrow is not threatened by Liam, his posture clearly still strong, willful and with a natural tallness representing an inner wisdom. He remained still, having chosen not to get involved with their fight, having chosen instead to try and convince them both to forget him, forget this...

Jacob was just smoking his Joint outside his tent, near a campfire when Liam came to him and punched him right in his face. he turned to one side when Liam had hit him, spitting blood and with one of his back side teeth on the ground. He turned back to Liam and with blood dripping out of his mouth he spoke calmly but assertive to Liam:
An to him who strikes yuh pon your cheek, Offa di odda.
he turned his other cheek to Liam and said to him
Try again, An dohn hick as an Pussy!
But then Marylin came in between,
Ray stayed with Woodrow to be sure he wouldn't leave and whispered this to the Plantman
Hey Wood guy, don't leave. Jacob and I got you covered, we will fix this situation. Jacob is very Wise for his age
Then Ray looked at what would happen now Marylin came between the to

Liam backed off, grunted and sat on a nearby chair, waiting for Marilyn to talk to them.
Marilyn looked Jacob in the eyes, and turned her head, and frowned.
"Jacob, he's a trained killer, I don't want to lose you to him, and believe me, he will."

Dave stepped forward, hand resting lightly on his revolver.
"Now I don't what the fuck is goin' on, but how about we all calm down so no-one gets killed"
He went from one member of the party to he next.
"Tree-fellah, you shocked us is all, I'm sorry for pointin' my gun at you"
"Ray...why am I talkin' to you? Your'e fine"
"Jacob, I know your tryin' to protect the Tree-fella, but rilin' up soldier-boy ain't gonna help that"
"Marilyn... congrats on finding your brother, I guess"
"Liam, we only met each other 10 minutes age, but I like you. I know your pride got hurt, but these boys are nice fellas, just give 'em a chance"

Woodrow, becoming increasingly impatient, clenches his fists, trying to hide his slight anger. He takes a deep breath, looking at the group for a while... saying nothing...
After a few more minutes, he plucks up the courage to speak as if a powerful urge compelled him to:
"I ought to leave. Humans are all the same; all of us. All the fighting, the bullshit... is it worth sticking around..?"
Woodrow sighs, thinking 'It's your own fault. A mistake, perhaps.. but you can forgive yourself.. can't you?'

Jacob listened to the comments on his behavior
"Jacob, he's a trained killer, I don't want to lose you to him, and believe me, he will."
"Jacob, I know your tryin' to protect the Tree-fella, but rilin' up soldier-boy ain't gonna help that"
then he looked from Marylin, Liam and then to Dave and spoke
Aay, I will gi peace an be a wise mon. but Woodrow Cyan Stay
Jacob stood up and walked to Liam and sat next to him. he pointed out his hand and said:
Lets start over. Mi name is Jacob
Meanwhile Ray walked towards Dave and he whispered in his ear with his hand on his shoulder
Serious man, Thank you again from recent battle, but you got to help me. we need to convince the Tree-bud to stay, guess Jacob wants to talk with him about that so called Trive that Tree-bud spoke of. Your with me buddy?
Ray let go of Dave and gave a thumps-up to him while walking to Woodrow. when he was with him again Ray spoke to Woodrow
Yoo, Tree-bud. Stay for a little longer man, I guess Jacob want to talk about you about that Tribe you spoke of, and I guess we all layed down our anger and accepted you man, or at least tollerate but they will turn over, promised. C'mon come and Relax a bit.
A few hundreds meters from the Camp Mr Coltrane saw the Camp and thought that Samantha would be there. he walked up with his dressing cane tapping on the dirt every several steps he took. When he was near it he saw a couple of guys: 2 black man, a cowboy, a nice looking girl, another white male .... and a tree. he stopped walking and looked towards the tree . he observed it and took up his shoulders. one thing he learned from being a Ghoul was that he would not discriminate on outer looks. he jammed his cane into the ground and spoke to the group:
You gentleman didn't saw an middle aged woman pass by recently? I was sopposed to meet her right here, mind if I lay my old bones to rest for a while here gentleman?
on that moment Samantha appeared to the scene too and yelled from a distance
Yoohoo Mr Coltrane I'm here! Wait I come to you, the more the beter right?
she ran towards the group plus Mr Coltrane and introduced herself to the group
Hi everyone, I'm Samantha and this is Mr Coltrane he is kind of old skool but still fun to hang with can we join for lunch?
She smilled and whinked to one guy in particular while waiting for an answer .... Jacob

Liam, snorted, obviously he was very patriotic. Or at least he was, not so much anymore, after he left the NCR. All the political bullshit could drag down every brahmin on the west coast.
Marilyn sat next to him, and hugged him, hoping he would stay, she just got him back.
"Liam, you're my brother, and I just got you back, I don't want you to leave. These are good people, just get to know them. Not so sure about the tree person, though."
"Fine, sis. Just cause you asked nicely."
Liam stood up, and walked directly towards Jacob, and extended his arm, intending to shake his hand.
