The Juggernaut Club: Part 5

The members of the Juggernaut Club are now walking the path to Zaun

: So, why are we going to Zaun to have Draven get healed? I mean, isn't Dr. Mundo a doctor?

: Don't you remember what happened LAST time we let Dr. Mundo try to "practice" on someone?

: Um... no...

: Oh, that's right! Shyv's the newbie, she wasn't around when that happened.

: Well, who wants to be the one to tell her, then?

Yorick raises his hand

: I will.

He directs Shyvana over to a tree stump and sits her down. He sits on one across from her. The other members of the club also sit on various objects nearby.

: Why are we sitting?

: Because Volibear needs a break, and that story is gonna take some time to tell...

: OK, so here's how it all started...

STATIC

: And then we got a call from the Institute of War-

EXPERIENCING TECHNICAL DIFFICULTIES, PLEASE WAIT...

: -So that drove all the Summoners in the Institute of War insane-

WE APOLOGIZE FOR THE INCONVENIENCE...

: -And we had to get the Targonians to enslave a giant space dragon-

WE ARE SO SORRY FOR THE TROUBLE CAUSED BY THIS INTERFERENCE...

: -But then Ekko showed up with his Z-Drive, and we used that to-

THE TROUBLES HAVE NOW BEEN RESOLVED, WE RETURN YOU TO OUR FEATURE PROGRAM

: -And THAT'S why Dr. Mundo is NOT allowed to practice anymore!

: Mundo will behave next time, Promise!

He crosses his fingers as he holds them behind his back.

: Wow... that is crazy...

: Not as crazy as the Summoners are still.

Darius stands up.

: All right, that's enough rest. Onward to Zaun!

Meanwhile, back in Noxus...

: Hey, Leblanc, I have a question.

: Yeah?

: Why'd you let Katarina out of her Grand-General-ordered house-arrest?

: She wouldn't shut up about Garen. She was going on-and-on about how much she was in love with him, and it got to the point that I left my clone there to get away. But she didn't even realize it, and kept going! I ignored it for a while, until I heard he was in town for one of Darius' little club meetings. And besides, I eventually started feeling sorry for the Clone...

: And?

: And so I knocked out Cassiopeia who was supposed to turn Katarina to stone if she attempted to escape, and I let her out.

: ....Why?

: So then MAYBE she'd get stuck on looking for her stupid father again, I don't know! Besides, how would YOU like it if you were stuck watching some famous, deadly assassin suddenly get neutered by an idiotically justice-obsessed nimrod who belongs to the ENEMY, thus turning her into a giddy chatterbox!?

: I guess you have a point. Though there is ONE thing about this that's good, even though you COMPLETELY disobeyed my orders...

: What's that?

: She is his Achilles Heel.

Leblanc remains silent for a moment, and then looks at Swain with a confused expression

: Who's Achilles?

Swain raises a hand to argue, but then stops short, and puts the same hand on his chin in thought

: That... is an excellent question. But it's also beside the point.

: You just don't know.

: I do too! Anyways, the IDEA here is that whatever undertaking Garen begins while she's being all fangirly over him will fail! So, even though she's not assassinating anyone over there in Demacia, she can STILL be a thorn in their side by distracting him!

: So...

: Soo... if she is his Achilles Heel, she's OUR Ace in the hole!

: I... still don't get it.

Swain facepalms.

: OK... it's like this. She may be all lovey-dovey over him right now, but I'm CONVINCED she'll encounter someone or something that'll spark the innate lust for violence in her that she had before. And we'll have a front row seat.

: How?

: Easy. Oh Beatrice~

Swain's pet raven flies in the room and lands on his outstretched hand

: Enact plan "Reconnaissance" would you please?

The bird squawks, and then flies out of the room and to the outdoors, presumably towards Demacia

: So how are WE supposed to have a "front-row seat" with that bird?

: Magic, that's how.

: Don't you remember they've got all that "Anti-Magic" stuff including their pride and joy of "Anti-Magic", that Gold and White Colossus/Golem thing?

: Not to worry, Sion'll handle that for us!

Sion is now shown walking towards Demacia

: I just can't wait to meet this "Galio" guy. I wonder if he shares any of my interests...
