**Yaonen** (1764-79 CE) was a suspect in the murder investigation of Aztec warrior Cozamacui in Trapped In War (Case #21 of Time Check), before killing resistance member Anastasia Peltier in Rebelle Avec Force (Case #23 of Time Check) and killing lawyer Maximilien Robespierre in Heads Will Roll (Case #25 of Time Check). Yaonen was later a suspect in the murder investigation of rogue time traveler Logan Barker in Kill Confirmed (Case #30 of Time Check), before being murdered in Preserved For History (Case #38 of Time Check).

## Description

Yaonen was a 25-year-old Shadow Ghost in disguise as a Resistance member in disguise as an Aztec guard. In Trapped In War, it is known that Yaonen has a cough and is a sharpshooter. In Rebelle Avec Force, it is known that Yaonen is physically fit, bites his nails, and eats madeleines. In Kill Confirmed, it is known that Yaonen has insomnia and is superstitious.

## Events of Time Check

### Trapped In War

Yaonen was first interrogated after detective Siobhan Simpson and the player found his dagger at the castle rooftop that his boss, Aztec warrior Cozamacui was before he was murdered. When we asked Yaonen about Cozamacui, he told us that he was very rude and demanding of him and hardly let him rest. Yaonen said that it was a relief that Cozamacui was dead and that now he can try to work under a normal, sane boss.

Yaonen was interrogated again after Siobhan and the player found his DNA on Cozamacui's corpse. When we asked Yaonen about this, he told us that he stood up to Cozamacui and told us that he didn't want to work with him anymore, before Cozamacui decided to punch him in the face. Yaonen tried to defend himself, so he grabbed a nearby pole and used it to whack Cozamacui in the stomach.

Yaonen was found to be innocent after the team incarcerated Resistance member Matt Leibbrandt for Cozamacui's murder.

### Rebelle Avec Force

Yaonen was questioned again after Siobhan and the player found his headband at the Resistance headquarters near the location where Resistance member Anastasia Peltier was stomped on until she died. When we asked Yaonen about this, he said that he decided that he would single-handedly round up the entire Resistance to show Aztec commander Atlatonin that he was competent enough to have a higher role.

Yaonen was interrogated again after the team found handcuff marks on Anastasia's arms that matched those Aztec guards would have access to. Yaonen said that he was trying to arrest Anastasia for treason but she fought back and managed to get Resistance leader Mabella Sadoul to take the handcuffs off for her.

In the end, it was revealed that Yaonen was Anastasia's killer.

After confronting Yaonen about the murder, he admitted to being a part of the Resistance. He said that he saw Anastasia sneaking out of the HQ and wanted to follow her. After she stopped running, Yaonen realized that they ended up in Bastille. He overheard that Anastasia was scheming with the Aztecs in order to sell the Resistance in exchange for them to protect her. She told the Aztecs that she could find Charles' grandson and kidnap him in order to lure the Resistance out of their base and into Aztec custody. Yaonen waited for Anastasia to arrive at the base. He then confronted her and she pulled out a pistol. There was a struggle, but Yaonen overcame Anastasia and she ended up on the floor with her head stomped in.

After Yaonen confesses to the murder, we take him to Mabella. She is glad that Yaonen kept his word and decided to help the Resistance. Hence, she gives him a medal that he puts on his chest. Yaonen said that he had enough of the Aztecs and he said that he would do anything to help the French defeat the Aztecs. However, the French are outnumbered and aren't getting any help from allied countries, as they are too scared to fight the Aztecs. He then said that he helped Matt free the team and that he made sure Cozamacui was alone when Matt killed him and that he was the one who stole the keys and tossed them into the cell for us to unlock. He then told the team that he found out that French queen Marie Antoinette is in Bastille's most secure cell and that he is able to take two of us in, in order to free Marie. Chief Michael Patterson agrees to come along to try and help free Marie.

### Free The Queen!

After the team incarcerated rogue time traveler Harris Knap for killing French king Louis XVI, the team and the entirety of the Resistance apart from Yaonen were caught. As soon as the Aztec king and his guards left, Yaonen rushed up to us and freed us. He then told us that he saw a beheaded body at the guillotine spot that we were supposed to be beheaded by them.

### Heads Will Roll

After Mabella was kidnapped by rogue time traveler Wynston Hammacher, we rush back to the Resistance base and tell the resistance that the Aztecs have taken Mabella away. Yaonen then screams "lies!" and everyone looks at him confused. Lawyer and resistance member Maximilien Robespierre then told Yaonen that he always thought that he was a traitor from the start. Yaonen then pulled out a futuristic gun from his pocket and uses it to shoot and kill Maximilien. Yaonen then smirked and said that Mabella was foolish to trust him. He said that Anastasia was never a traitor and that she was actually the one who caught Yaonen making deals with the Aztecs to save his own skin. He said that he tried to help Crystal Evergreen and her brother Justin Evergreen escape the French Revolution. We then point our guns at him and ask him why he did all of this, and Yaonen said that his friend will be here soon to explain everything. He then aims his gun at us, but Ava shoots him in the chest. However, the metal that was given to him by Mabella created a protective force around him and the bullet deflected off of him and went through a wall, nearly hitting Ava. Yaonen then said that if he did all of this, his master would let him see the future. We keep our guns pointed and demand to know who this master is. To our surprise, Wynston pops out of nowhere, grabs Yaonen, says Mabella is done for and that we should free Harris, and then he then fades with Yaonen. We then look around Yaonen's old Aztec quarters, where we find a slip that says "An eye for an eye." It shows a justice scale with Pierrey on one side and Maximilien on the other, with judge Pierrey Barrault crossed out and Maximilien having a bunch of arrows pointing at him. Below this image, however, we see a note that says, "Do this and you will see the future, -Matthieu."

### Let Hope Sink

After arresting Soviet leader Joseph Stalin for the murder of Valeriya Nikolaeva, tech expert Declan Bryne runs away and is caught by Yaonen.

### Melting Words

After time traveler Logan Barker was exposed, we were informed that Yaonen was in an abandoned warehouse. They followed this lead into the abandoned warehouse where Yaonen is looking at what looks to be another time machine. They tell him that he's under arrest and that he's going back to the French Revolution so Marie Antoinette can decide his fate, but he pulls out a gun on the two of them. They try to get out, but all the warehouse doors are now locked.

### Kill Confirmed

Yaonen was interrogated again after detective Heather Müller and the player found the futuristic gun used to kill Maximilien at the warehouse where rogue time traveler Logan Barker was killed. Yaonen said that he knew Logan and he worked his way high-up into the rankings of both the American and Aztec armies. Yaonen said that he admired Logan and wasn't afraid to tell him so.

Yaonen was interrogated again after we found a text from Logan, telling Yaonen to leave him alone. When we interrogate Yaonen about this, he said that he formed a deep admiration for Logan and kept telling him how great he was. Logan was annoyed by this and told Yaonen to leave him alone, and he did.

Yaonen was found to be innocent after the team incarcerated Terror Detection Bureau member Anna Bommarito for Logan's murder.

After Anna's confession, she leaves to 2100 and we find Yaonen taking Declan hostage.

## Murder Details

Yaonen was found dismembered at the central statue square in Pompeii. Clive told the team that Yaonen was dismembered with one of the sharpest tools around: a machete. Clive said that the cuts were so quick that the killer had to have been in top physical condition in order to pull it off so flawlessly.

## Relationship with Suspects

Shadow Ghosts member Magdalene Thompson suspected that Yaonen was unfaithful to their organization and cause and suspected that he wanted to kill all of them. Wynston said that he felt Yaonen was ungrateful that he managed to show him the future. He said that Yaonen just wanted more and more and that his greed showed no bounds. Yaonen was wanted by the Terror Detection Bureau and TDB member Anna Bommarito encountered him and nearly arrested him, but he narrowly managed to escape. Yaonen also helped escaped killer Fulvia Auspex escape from the dungeons and told her that there was an eruption and that she should get out. Fulvia didn't believe him but he said that it was a well-known event in history for many years to come. Yaonen was overheard by roman banker Caecilius who wasn't involved with the case. He escaped with his wife mid-investigation. Yaonen also helped Wynston kidnap Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortés but neither realized that he still had his machete on him: the same one that was stolen from him and used to dismember Yaonen.

## Killer and Motives

The killer turned out to be Fulvia.

We decide to talk to Fulvia about Yaonen's murder, only to find her dressed up in modern clothes. We ask her about the murder, but she says that she has no idea who Yaonen is. As soon as we catch her, however, Old Anna storms into the time machine and tells us that "Fulvia" is secretly Rebecca Bommarito, her daughter who escaped from the mental asylum two months ago and has been hiding in Pompeii ever since. This is how she knew about the virus Clemens started. Anna said that she can't control her murderous thoughts and could easily defeat a boxer if she wanted to. Anna said that if she's in that state, then she kills someone and immediately forgets about her murderous actions. We ask her why she became insane, and Anna told us that her best friend, the late Samantha Hammacher, always made visits to 2100 because she loved how the future looked. Wynston later moved to 2100 and stayed in touch with all his friends and Samantha and Rebecca were closer than ever. However, during their first prom, Rebecca became extremely jealous of Samantha, who took her crush to the prom. This caused Rebecca to go to Wynston's house, where she attacked Samantha and ended up killing her older brother. Wynston then captured her and left her in his basement for years with barely any food and used that to make Anna give into his demands. This didn't work and Rebecca slowly turned insane over the years. One day, she decided to escape and stumbled across Wynston's wall of heads, where she saw her father, Anna's husband who's been missing for years' head. Rebecca broke down and swore to get revenge on Samantha during her senior year, as they were 17 at the time. Rebecca then grabbed a gun and entered the school, shooting several students and killing two. She was then taken to the mental asylum on Anna's orders and ever since then she's sworn to get revenge on Wynston for locking her daughter up for all those years. However, there was a recent blackout in the city, causing Rebecca to be able to escape and use Samantha's old time machine to go to Pompeii, where she stayed for two months. She convinced herself that she lived in Pompeii and convinced herself that the Clemens virus killed her parents. She then saw Yaonen and decided to kill one more time.

## Aftermath

### The Shot That Matters

It was revealed that "Rebecca" was secretly Anna's younger self when Anna told us prior to her suicide that her younger self was loyal to Shadow Ghosts leader Michael Patterson the entire time and that Yaonen realized what was right and wanted to leave, so Young Anna was chosen to finish him off.
