The first half of this chapter is going to be a bit longer than ususal because its going to be two intro's in one. I realize that its been taking a bit longer to get everyone in with their own part of a chapter, so I'm going to improvise a bit. I hope it doesn't upset anyone that this will occure.
And now, the awaited.....
Chapter 3: The Meeting In yet another part of the town, another safe house was being rushed through as gear, weapons, also some dirty magazines that BottleBert was just not leaving behind, was thrown into duffel bags. TheArux shook his head at Bert as he watched him, then calmly broke down his sniper rifle and put it lovingly in its case, which he set beside his own duffel bag. Arux had long ago lost count of how many times Bert had brought his porn mags to an assignment, but oddly enough, it had never once gotten in the way of the man's job. Sometimes he wondered if the man would be able to function if he didn't have them. The crazy people he was associated with. But, they were his brothers and sisters in arms, so it didn't matter much.
They had all gone through hell together, and thanks to one woman, Belladonna, they had made it out alive, and mostly in one piece. It went without question that some of them had gone a little crazy during that time, but, hey, when you go through that much torture for that long, it was bound to happen. At least they had gotten out. And now, the shit was hitting the fan again. Bert tossed something at him, and he caught it, grinning as he recognized one of his gun clips. The little bastard.
"Thats where it went," he said. "You shit head!"
"Hey, don't look at me man," Bert said with a big grin. "You were the one who left it sitting around. Besides, it was hella funny watching you trash the place trying to find it."
"Remind me to kick your ass later," Arux said, laughing.
"You can try, snipey, you can try," Bert teased him.
"Now I'm really gonna kick your ass."
They both laughed uproariously as they grabbed up their bags, and bolted for the door. They pushed and shoved at eachother, each one trying to get out the door first. Bert was the victorious one. Arux glared jokingly at him as he reset the alarm system and locked the place up. Bert was climbing into the Tumbler as Arux tossed his duffel in, then carefully stowed his rifle in one of the weapon caches. The Tumbler roared to life and they started heading over to Wolf's. Their moods grew heavier and heavier as they drew closer to the safe house.
"Yo, Arux, you think its Vaygr?" Bert asked suddenly. "Think he and his followers have finally found us?"
Arux frowned, and shook his head. "I don't know, but considering he's former military, its possible. Still pisses me off that he and his team went rogue."
"Yeah, well, pisses me off even more that the bastard had the gall to ambush our team," Bert said acidly. "I don't know what the fuck that man is thinking."
"No one does, Horn, no one does," Arux said, and grew quiet as they pulled up to Wolf's safe house.
Orcraniil set up Wanderous's laptop, knowing she was going to send out some of her little toys to see if she could get a look at Taka's place, and asses the situation. She was out at the Tumbler, quickly and accurately programming some small hover cams, and pulled out her com. She gave the ready signal to Orcra, and watched as the cams lit up and hovered. She ran a quick scan over them, to make sure they were properly functioning and let them flow outside. Well curse it all! The damn things were instantly blown to the ground by the powerful wind gusts.
She sighed, and quickly picked them up before they could get damaged too heavily by the elements and being battered along the ground. She sealed up the Tumbler and looked up in time to see a second ATV plowing its way thorugh the snow. Judging by the driving, it had to be Bert and Arux. She waved and headed inside, shaking the snow from her jacket. Orcra looked up at his wife and frowned when he caught sight of the cams in her hand. Damn, hadn't worked. They had been hoping that the hover cams would be able to make it through the storm, but the blizzard was too strong.
"Its alright, sweetheart, you tried," he said, trying to sooth her.
"And this is why I installed cams in all of the safe houses," she muttered iratably. "We have no clue whats going on over there."
Orcra ruffled her hair and smiled. "Well, next time, hide them better."
"As if that would work," she said as Bert and Arux burst in with a blast of cold air. "I did that with Angel and Maia's place, but they found them all."
"Yeah, well, they're pretty thurough when it comes to that kind of thing," Orcra said. "They're good at what they do."
"We all are!" Bert piped up, then turned to Wanderous. "You tellin me, Gadget, that you put your little spy bots in our houses? What kinda kinky shit you into, girl?"
Wanderous grinned at him, saluted, and sat down behind her laptop. "Its all a part of my master plan, Bert."
"What plan is that?"
"One that makes us rich, of course," came her sassy reply.
"Orcra, you got one interesting wife." Bert said.
"Yes, yes I do," he replied sitting down next to Wanderous who was clicking away on the laptop.
