As the process of arriving in T3 places everyone randomly around Lazura, Snipes and Lara both end up smack dab in General's office. They manage to get away and find somewhere safe(ish) to stay for the time being, while the rebellion tries find out who the fuck they were and why they were there. After doing a bit of recon and figuring out where some of the other superverse crew is, they manage to contact their supervisor/mentor/mother figure from the Organization, who promptly admits that the two of them were sacrificed as necessary losses to get rid of the problems that was Mason, Jack, Rio, Sunny, and Xavier, and that none of them were even expected to survive the trip, let alone end up in a livable/populated area. Upset that their lifelong loyalty has been rewarded with a maternal figure throwing them away like trash without a second thought, they abandon their mission.

Lara wants to mostly chill out and lay low for a while, maybe attempt to move towards something that approaches a normal life, but Snipes doesn't really know anything but his training. For a short time, they work as freelance mercenaries/assassins, until Snipes' relationship with a mark named Raiden caps off his downward spiral as he comes to terms with his new reality. They break the contract, and are contemplating on whether to continue mercenary work at all, when General's crew finds them and takes them back to one of their sites for interrogation by General personally. With Snipes pre-emptively mentally broken, Lara tries to damage control and explains their situation after realizing General had no immediate malicious intent. Since the readings having to do with the dimensional jump from General's end matched up with their story, he let them go and got them some medical attention as well as food and places to sleep and such (since they were mostly just squatting in abandoned lofts or offices prior to being found). Though not one to trust easy, they took him up on the offer and stayed a bit, while Lara explained the situation a bit more in depth. General felt for them, realizing they were essentially child soldiers brainwashed by some kind of fucked up organization. 

Eventually the two grew familiar enough to choose to stay, but knowing what they went through, General would have never requested they join the rebellion itself. They do odd jobs within the rebellion of their own volition, but their relationship with General is more of a fatherly one.
