The video opens, and starts playing. It shows a small cobblestone room. A few seconds go by, and then 4 men come in, dragging what looks like two figures with bags over their heads with them. The 4 men then leave, removing the bags from the two other people's heads as they do so.
You look closer, to try and make out who these two remaining people are... You feel like you recognise the taller of the two, but you're not sure. After a few seconds though, the taller figure turns to look at the camera in the corner of the room, the one that's filming this. You get a proper look at their face... It's... you. That's what finally gives it away. This is a video of the first test, the one where you had to kill Julian. Cassius's younger brother. And the enemy has just sent this to him.
You were intently watching the video. You didn't hear as the door was quietly opened. You didn't hear the footsteps.
Out of all your senses, you smell it first. Blood. Then you hear it. The soft tear of a Razor through flesh. You look down, seeing a blade jutting out of your stomach. Cassius's blade.
"For Julian."
You feel no pain yet, but you know it's coming. You have 2, possibly 3 seconds before your body goes into shock.
Do as you wish, and make a con save straight after it.

Lazaren gasps, and pretty much uses the Rogue Scout's Skirmisher ability, pounding heavily away, but making sure to leave the Razor inside him. "Wh-" he coughs, "What would you have done? If it was some stranger's brother!?" He clenches his teeth. "You think I wanted to do it? I'm here for a reason more important than all this!" He grabs a small dagger off of a table.

"He was a son of Bellona!" Cassius practactly screams. "My brother! And then you, some nobody, kill him, and expect me not to come for you?" He stares at you, on the verge of tears but at the same time still composed. "You will die here, in pain, you murderer." He practically spits the lasts words, and then leaves as you involuntarily sink to your knees, dropping your dagger.
You begin to shake uncontrollably. Make another con save.

You lost your balance, falling onto your side. Now the pain hits. God, it burns like hell. Your face contorts as you try to bare it, but its no use. You manage to hold back completely crying, but small shouts and the sobs are unsuppressable. Your burning up, but shivering, and blood begins to flow out of not only your wound, but your mouth, and onto the floor.
Make one last con save.

"We found you about 11 hours ago, and you've been out ever since." She checks a tablet next to her. "Cassius hijacked one of the logjams and flew off with it, the stuck up bastard. Good riddance." She realises she's forgetting about you, and stops looking at the tablet. "How are you feeling? Your wound seemed to heal itself almost as much as the stitches and medicine did. Your body's some kind of wonder... in a biological way, I mean." Now it's her turn to blush.

"Um, I'm feeling... sore, I guess." (Is he?) He rubs his face with his hands, eyes closed for a moment. "Did anything important happen besides, well, Cassius?"

"We're chasing after the enemy. Garagas and Mustang are some kinda god team when it comes to tactics, took them 4 hours to find the Bellona fleet. I don't know anything else, as I've been here with you the whole time."
