Arriving back at home you're immediately pulled to the side by your father, mother, and Captain Nelson. Senator Rockefeller decides to come along for the ride.
You're not told exactly what's going, but you have a suspicion that it's regarding Granite. That suspicion is confirmed not long after as you're presented with a rather beaten and battered man restrained in what appear to be stocks.
Your father nods at him then at you, "You managed to capture one of the worst traitors to America, for that Son I can safely say I'm incredibly proud, that you sent him here was just the icing on the cake." He looked supremely pleased.
Granite on the other hand was bleeding from his face and could barely see out of his swollen eyes, still managed to spit at the statement said about him, though it was mostly blood, "Ain't nothing changed." was all he said.
Frankly it was impressive as you figured the mans jaw had been broken by the looks of it.
Your mother just scowls at the man, "We had a long discussion about what to do with him while you were away, but we ultimately decided that since you're the one that beat him, and brought him before us, you'd get the honor of executing the traitor."
You heart skipped a beat at that.
Just straight to execution?
You took a breath, "But what about a trial?"
Your mother laughed, "Oh son, Traitors like this don't get trials, they get bullets. Though I have to commend you on keeping him alive enough for the rest of the cell to witness this it'll be a great boost to morale seeing what happens to traitors."
Your father just shook his head, "I have to agree, we don't exactly have the resources or time to give him anything resembling a trial, besides everyone here already knows his guilt, he aided and abetted the greatest disaster to the Enclave Cause ever, he helped blow up the Poseidon oil rig, he's quite literally accomplice to the assassination of a President. Really all it'd be is delaying the inevitable."
You bit down hard on your teeth.
Well Ford what do you say?
>"Even Still, its a matter of principal, we're more than just some rag tag band that executes on a whim, no matter how true that whim is, we're what's left of America, he should be given a trial."
>Remain silent and take in the scene before you, "Are you sure? Traitor or no he was Enclave, and at that an American."
>Lower your head in resignation and take the gun, though it makes your stomach sick.
>Write in
