Rebel's messages

On February 20, 2009, Rebel's intercept program at Building 26 relayed a mission authorization to pursue a lead on the LAWR to the "fullest extent of our capabilities", and "execute core directives against any objectives or threats identified."

On March 6, 2009, another Building 26 intercept relayed the message that something "suggests subject's ally 'Ellen' may in fact be an organization. Therefore, broad application of PL107-56/18USC2331 may speed counter-efforts against many LAWR-related..."

On March 10, 2009, Rebel e-mailed players of the Heroes Evolutions ARG that the LAWR needed to be warned about what happened to Howie.

The Agent

In chapter 6 of The Agent, Anna encounters Rachel Mills and Jason where at a restaurant. When they begin arguing about Rachel's ability and attracting attention, Anna uses her ability on most of the restaurant except for Rachel and Jason, causing them to become motionless and stare blankly. An eight-year-old girl in the restaurant is also affected more severely, and collapses onto the ground with drool trickling out of her mouth. Jason calls Anna a freak and threatens to harm her if his sister isn't okay, and then Anna calls out for Rachel as Rachel takes the opportunity to shoot Jason dead. After helping Rachel clean up the scene, Anna takes her to an abandoned hunting cabin where they spent the night in separate bunk beds.

The next morning, after helping Rachel through some grief, Anna asks Rachel if she has heard about LAWR. Rachel replies that the government picked up some chatter about it, and the girl explains that she is the A in LAWR and that her name is Anna. The girl adds that she helps Ellen, but can't talk about that part. She then tells Rachel that Rachel has to go back to her organization. Anna says that REBEL told her that they need Rachel there now since things are so dangerous. Anna says it should be safe since Rebel is asking her to do so. Then, Anna says that she has a big test tonight she has to get to and Rachel agrees to leave with her. Before they leave, Anna notes that Jason's sister, Janey, works for a special U.S. Army unit that plays dirty, and that REBEL thinks she might hunt for her brother's killer.

In chapter 7 of The Agent, Rachel recalls that Anna rode in the passenger seat when she drove to Jason's apartment. Anna then sat silently in her seat as Rachel got out Jason's body from the trunk and dropped him off.

Later, Anna meets up with Rachel in an alley near an abandoned office building that is the target of a Building 26 operation. After Rachel tackles Anna to ground, worried that other agents might see her, Anna points out that she already took out at least the two nearest agents, who appear to be asleep or something. Anna then walks with Rachel to the front of the target building and tells Rachel her story to convince Rachel that what Rachel did to Jason was necessary.

Anna teleports with Rachel a couple times inside the building, and end up in the makeshift shelter the fugitives have made out of the plant nursery there. They are introduced to Abe, leader of a group of about twenty people that live there. After he demonstrates ability to them, Anna tells him that REBEL sent them, and warns that the government is outside. Later, Anna realizes Rachel's plan is to seek out the remote detonator of a bomb placed on the fire escape while the fugitives flee down it, and she tells Rachel it is not really alright with her after detailing it to the group.

In chapter 8 of The Agent, Anna pulls Rachel aside after telling Rachel that planning to go after the detonator is not really alright with her. Anna then says that maybe Rachel was right, that they should just take Abe away and that the others will be released eventually. Next, Rachel notes that agents have seen them, but Anna replies that she has been seen before, and REBEL makes it go away. Rachel then goes off on how Anna is likely thinking that Rachel will let the fugitives get caught, but Anna just responds by throwing her arms around Rachel and telling her to come back to them.

After the three minutes they planned to wait are up, Anna and the other fugitives begin fleeing down the fire escape. They then head towards a truck while ducking gunfire from agents in the building. After Rachel blows up the fire escape, Anna and the other fugitives are able to make it to the truck and help Rachel inside. Later, Anna's cell phone beeps with a message from REBEL that contains a huge list of people needing help and other related information. Anna notes who its from, and takes a long time reading it. Anna then temporarily hands Rachel her the phone, and tells her that Ellen is in trouble. Anna continues that they need to introduce a lot of people to Ellen, and notes that REBEL pointed her to a person at a nearby circus that should be their priority. However, Rachel points out she has something else to do first.

In chapter 9 of The Agent, Anna proceeds on to the circus without Rachel. Upon arriving at the circus, she reflects on Rebel's last text. He wrote that agents are surrounding the place, that Anna needs to find the man in the black hat, and that the man will know what to do. Anna spots a magician doing a card trick, and thinks from his tall hat that he is a mind reader and the person she needs to contact. However, she decides that it would be a good idea not to talk with him about it until he has finished his act, so she heads back outside to watch the elephants.

After the magician's act is done, Anna spots the man as he leaves the tent and introduces herself. She tells him she wants to help him, but he replies that they are not hiring and doesn't look back at her as he continues towards a tent in the back of the lot. Undeterred, Anna continues that their friend sent her, and he wants her to tell him that the men in black are here. However, the man still does not acknowledge her so Anna comments that she knows he can read minds. This does not work either, as he explains that his act was just a trick and asks her to go back out front.

When the magician then turns and walks into the back tent, Anna grits her teeth and follows him inside. She finds the place dark and creepy, with many cages spread around the tent. A mermaid performer that is exiting a water tank and unzipping her costume spots Anna, and shouts to the man in the tall hat. She calls the man Doug and tells him that there is a kid in the tent. Then, the other circus performers approach Anna and one of them scares her into screaming.

As Anna calms down, she explains to a woman that she is used to these things being real, and not a costume. Next, Anna takes a deep breath and shouts toward the man in the tall hat. She tells him that they have to go, and that the government is surrounding the circus. A silence then falls over the tent, and Doug steps out towards Anna. Anna explains again that she was sent by their friend and they need leave. She adds that they will be coming for him as soon as all the escapes are cut off. When Doug replies that they will not, Anna asks for a private discussion so she can prove what she is saying to him. However, he responds that he believes her now, but that the government agents are coming for everyone else there, not him.

Anna looks around and witnesses the others use their abilities, then asks for all of them to flee. However, the "thing" Anna screamed at earlier, sits up again now and says they can't do that. Then, it absorbs a chair and transforms itself into a young woman that looks somewhat familiar to Anna. Everyone then looks at Anna.

Some time later, Anna has huddled everyone together in the dark while they wait. She checks her cell phone for the twentieth time, but Rebel has not sent any further instructions. Everyone then freezes around her as they spot lots of people quietly moving around outside. Worried for herself and the others, Anna asks in whisper where Rachel is.
