Amet shook his head, his tone peaceful. He walked over to Silver, apologized for earlier, and climbed the ladder once more.

"This is the briefing I needed to give to the group.  I respect Jenny's urgency in the situation...but what i'm about to say needs to be said.

"Aurea, there's nothing wrong in feeling that way.  Inside, a part of me wants to go after him, too.  I feel like we need someone like him.  But don't forget he's a tactician, too.  He might have a plan up his sleeve.  I think he'll come back." Amet swallowed hard. At least, I hope...

"He's a part of the group.  That does not change.  I leave it up to you guys to decide if we go after him." Amet shifted his weight on the rungs. "But...there's another thing i'd like to bring to the fold.  One that I've wanted to talk about for some time now.  And if I don't bring it up, I fear this operation will fail.  And we can't have that.

"So, people...I don't want to be a dictator.  I want this group to function..and my stint earlier was the exact opposite of that.  I apologize for it.  However, I do wish to lead this group.  Upon reflection, I need to change.  And if I am to lead you, I require your help to grow acustomed to it.  I'm not perfect, if not far from it.  I will make mistakes - so is the nature of man.

"Like I said, I don't want to be a dictator.  I would like to cast a poll, a vote.  I'd like you guys to pick a leader.  Your decision, right here and now, will make or break this group.  I have the plans, the blueprints to success.  But I need your assistance in taking this city back." Amet cleared his throat, extending a hand out to the group in front of him.

"Whatever the decision, I hope it is the right one.  I'm not trying to sway you, but trying to bring to light the gravity of our situation." Amet hoped they picked him. But if they didn't, so be it. Amet wasn't about to pull a Sven.
