(Start of season 5)

The techno's had taken the city from the Mallrats- and many agreed it was not in the best interest of the city. The first doubts started with Amber expressing that bar codes were not the answer.

Following that- many others hopped on those bandwagon of beliefs. Salene started to doubt the Techno's sincerity over subtle things she noticed. Them lying to tribes, hiding things, and doing things without any consent. Jay no longer had control over what to were to be his men- instead Mega had taken everything.

Mega (as usual) had come to see Jay, who was not there. He then ran into Salene who was doing laundry. Now as a former city leader, Salene decided that now was the time to voice concern of her own- if not blatant distrust of his methods deciding to share exactly what she felt.

"You know Mega, In order for something to become clean, something else must become dirty; but you can get everything dirty without getting anything clean," she said to him.

Mega looked at her, "So you're saying in order to clean up the city, we have to resort to what you deem underhanded tactics- and in the process ruining the city without making it better," he replied annoyed.

"That's it exactly- your ruining the city- you're not making it better with what your doing- you've just convinced yourself you have," Salene replied.

"Maybe to you but I know my ideas are right. We're helping the city. Giving it electricity, food, and safety from the Zootists- we've done it all for you. There is a reason you're not city leader any longer is for a reason- the techno's are the future not the Mallrats," Mega spoke in a calm cool tone.

Salene looked at him, "Jay isn't here now, so I suggest you leave," she replied.

"Oh my way," Mega replied turning and heading for door. So things just never changed- and the distrust of the Techno's was one of them- too bad for them though- they were right for once and no one would be able to stop Mega once his final plans came into play.
