ATBASH CIPHER

i know i should stop believing
i know there's no retrieving

Atbash blinked at her adopted child, frowning at them as they came over. It was a shame that they had come during all of this - hell, Yuuri had joined during this whole shitshow, but Atbash especially felt bad considering she had adopted Ikanaide. The Hailcaller frowned at their words, shuffling her paws. "Be careful saying that out loud," She warned. They didn't deserve to be in this mess, and if Stryker overheard them, shit would be going down quickly. "That's... what this is all about." She finally admitted, finally looking over at Yuuri, even if the she-cat couldn't tell that she was. "We're pacfists and Stryker had once lived here. He... knew we wouldn't try to fight back." But we need to, She admitted to herself silently. Ikanaide had a point, though Atbash wasn't sure if she wanted to trust him with things right now. Snowbound needed somebody who could actually fight. Dimitri had an alter called Delta, but who the hell knew where she was at? There was only one other person Atbash knew could get a rebellion started and her gaze once again flickered to Nui. "We need to talk later." She tried to speak to the Polarheart telepathically, hoping the other female heard her. Ikanaide's words were true; something had to be done, or else they would be stuck like this forever. Or until they killed her. "But we... can't talk about that now." She couldn't talk about that in general, considering she would be heavily guarded soon. But Nui could catch her up on things later, if she accepted the role Atbash was planning on giving her.
