He didn't know that anyone from the Order smoked, or anyone top side for that matter. Then he grinned and tapped another cigarette out of the pack and onto his hand and handed it to Van, afterwards tossing him his lighter in case the guy didn't have one. He was about to speak when Xiadra returned and started asking about Slevin. "Slevin? That guy is fuckin nuts, he almost got us all killed. We were under attack by Halloweeners in bikes and cars, and before we even stopped Slevin opened the door and...just bailed out. I dunno what happened to him after that, the fighting got really thick. Honestly, we're better off without him." He paused for a minute, peering back out the door of the vehicle. "Where's Jack?"

Posts: 728 07/15/09 11:45 PM BRAHNZ! NOM NOM NOM!	I take the smoke stick and light it. I exhale the first bit of smoke but then take in a deep drag. Whether it was the fatigue or the rush of nicotine after not having it for a couple of weeks, My legs falter slightly and my back hits the wall with a thud. I shut my eyes and enjoy the momentary high I get before shaking it off and exhaling the smoke out the tanks ajar door. "Thanks. " I return Joes fire maker and look back outside. "Think he's planning on heading somewhere else. This vehicles heading back to the Mill so if your going with him I'd hustle. " I take in another deep drag.

Posts: 81 07/15/09 11:51 PM A Very Bad Papercut	Freya looked up at the group when she heard about Slevin. "He passed out after I removed that strange arm from his body. Then he woke up and ran off with the man with a motorcycle helmet into some store, I stopped paying attention after that." She didn't care how people would react to what she said, she wasn't a liar.

He looked at both cars from a few feet away, away from the crowd, trying to figure out what he wanted to do. Of course he was screwed any possible way he decided to go. John could go to the junkyard, he really wasn't any worse for the wear; he hadn't been touched except for a bit of a hit during the fight with 728. Going back to the mill would be pointless to him, the Dragons were responsible for all the shit that had fucked up his life in the last two and a half weeks. Just wandering off meant Nameless would find him and force him to do god knows what, after all, this was just as much Halloweener turf as it was Dragon turf from what he understood. Screwed all three ways.

Posts: 513 07/16/09 12:47 AM Can't Touch This	Serenity stood over Dawn, already working quickly to repair the damage to her heart. After all the training and education she had, it was easy to see that somehow the wound had healed and then been reopened. It didn't make any sense for the Paladin to have sealed it then reopened it on his own. For a few moments her mind tried to grasp what had happened as she worked, but it didn't take long for her consciousness to devote itself to the work she was doing. One patient saved, two to go. "Dawn, right? Can you hear me?" Serenity's eyes glanced at Dawn's vitals. Was she slipping already?

The bike was much too heavy and won the tug of war, the handlebars slipping out of her hands, sending Erin backwards to fall on her rear end, on top of some poor, lifeless body. Even worse, she was pretty sure she had further damaged the gentleman's bike.

Posts: 330 07/16/09 9:55 AM Cry Havoc, and let loose the Dogs of War	Or worse, broken it, if it wasn't already so. Raze stood behind her, having arrived too late to prevent the girl's downfall, not to mention his poor bike's. "It seems your mystical super strength has failed you, oh mighty Mistress of the Corpse Throne." It was a macabre joke, which revealed the all encompassing sense of humor Raze possessed. Nothing was too serious a subject for him to make light of. Not down here, where sometimes humor was the only way to keep your sanity. "Now, Mistress, if you would get yourself up, perhaps we could collaborate on this endeavor?" With his arms in the condition they were in, she'd have to let go of his belongings, and lend both hands to the problem. Last Edited By: TheCrappyNinja 07/16/09 10:11 AM. Edited 2 times.

Posts: 1467 07/16/09 7:13 PM Tries Too Hard	"The ride going home is apparently the large tanker vehicle over there, Miranda. Xiadra came out of that and that's where Prin and Dawn are gettin' stitched up. Looks like Joe and Van 're there, too. I'd suggest you join them. The Junkyard isn't safe for you even for a quick burial." Jack looks towards Ayuban. "I accidentally put Prophet's body down in the tanker, but that was fine as I needed both arms and shoulders for the hammer. Going to have some of the Misfits ferry it over or wanna watch the wheel while I go for it?" Glen wanted to come to the Junkyard; while he didn't know the man well, he had apparently helped his allies survive zombie world for weeks, and so it was worth trying to see if he was further trustworthy. Ayuban and Fang were fresh to join him; while Fang didn't like him, Ayuban was competant and loyal. He saw no need for Miranda to accompany him, not after surviving so much and seeming to have some bandages on her own wounds. "The Junkyard's a place where we salvage for scraps and other materials down here. It's also where some heavy stuff went down lately. Even a quick burial may not be easy," he says, mostly to fill Glen in a little.

"If you have a body to dispose of...I could always turn it to ash and then we can easily dump those?" he said, not really knowing the importance or any of that, of course he didn't totally care much either. "I actually advise that if this person is someone you cared about...with his powers...let's just say I know first hand how hard it is to have someone you knew and even loved rise from the dead to come after you. It's not something easily dealt with." Glen said thinking back on all the people he knew, he protected, and protected him, even a few of the women he had loved seeing them as undead, it was heart wrenching.

Posts: 1757 07/16/09 8:46 PM Captain Nemo's Worst Nightmare	"The... 'tanker'?" What the hell's a tanker? And why the hell would I want to ride with Prin? She hates me. "I worked hard to get this car. Glen and I worked hard. I'm sticking with it. Now let's get moving already."

Posts: 167 07/17/09 12:47 AM Mixairian's Right Hand	Thank goodness the gentleman had come to her rescue. She scrambled to her feet, setting his belongings down carefully among the rest of the debris on the street and once again moved next to the bike. "But, aren't you hurt? Shouldn't you go see a doctor?"

Posts: 1468 07/17/09 2:59 AM Tries Too Hard	"Actually, Glen, I do know what that is like, sort of," Jack answers, remembering having to set fire to Sila at the Junkyard. "If we have to cremate him, we will do it at the Junkyard. That is what the old man wanted." Jack motions to the large Order vehicle. "Tanker, tank, that big thing. I don't trust the Order either but Xiadra is there and she'll take care of you. I already had to watch Prin and Dawn go down I am damn well not watching you go down today, Miranda." He sighs, about to exit the car to pick up Prophet's body for the trip, since none of the Misfits or Ayuban responded. In the distance he sees the cute red-head who scampered back and forth at the end of the battle dragging over what is left of a motorcycle to a man in a helmet. She was all but falling over herself to return the bike. Jack presumed the man was a pimp and this was one of his "servants", given how the Slums are. Had it not been as bad a day, he would play hero for a thrill and a girl's delight, but he had way too much on his plate now.

Posts: 2262 07/17/09 3:18 AM Kwisatz Haderach	Ayuban had left while they all chatted. So when Jack left the car to get Prophet, there Ayuban stood with the man slung over his shoulder. He appeared stoic but it was obvious he was impatient. Before Jack could comment, he speaks. (Ayuban) "The sooner we finish this, the sooner I can get the Misfits back to the Mill." Meanwhile, earlier. Ayuban had stalked through the battlefield to the Order vehicle. He passed Judas and Fang, offering them a polite nod as he picked up the body. (Ayuban) "Sir. Furry." (Fang) "Pup." The banter was casual tone but good humored. (Ayuban) "Going to bury Prophet. Meet back at the Mill." And he leaves. Meanwhile the young Misfits were going across the battlefield, looting anything of value to bring back later. Most of the adults who lived in the area seemed to afraid to say anything. Once the children and Dragons were gone, the people would get to rebuilding their lives.

So yeah, sorry for not wanting to ride with a bunch of people who want me dumped in the desert and someone I'm pretty sure is an enemy spy and the one girlfriend of yours who wants to kill me more than the others. No thanks. I'm staying put. Drive."

Posts: 247 07/17/09 10:22 AM	Joe frowned when Van replied that Jack was going somewhere else. He's not going back to the Mill? He glanced over at Freya in confusion, not quite understanding what she said. He was going to ask her to clarify, but at that point Ayuban appeared, picked up Prophet, and went back out. Everything clicked in Joe's head and he realized they must be taking Prophet to the junkyard. Joe immediately knew he wanted to go with them. Despite the terrible things that happened last time he was at the Mill, he had to see this through. There was no way he had gotten through that whole fight, and survived intact, just to turn around and leave. "I'm going with them." He announced quickly, then without waiting for anyone to reply he shoved himself off the wall and hurried out of the vehicle after Ayuban, the enigma that was Freya pushed from his mind. He got to Ayuban, Jack, Miranda, and Glen just as Ayuban finished saying they should leave. He looked at Jack as he spoke. He wanted to explain why he was here, as well as head off any possible protests immediately. "If you guys are taking Prophet to the junkyard to bury him, then I'm coming with you. We just got through with one of the biggest fights I've ever been in, and I'm still here. There's no way I'm just gonna go home now. I don't care if it's dangerous, I'm comin too." He paused and took a deep breath, and at the same time realized he was still holding the cigarette and threw it away. "Please." He added the word as an afterthought, because he knew that honestly, if Jack didn't want him to go, he wouldn't be going.

She was ready to have the vehicle move on when Ayuban showed up and removed Prophet's body. How silly of her. Planning to leave with the dead man that Jack was meant to bury. She watched him take away the old man and, as the reality began to sink in, she weakened. She had no real love for the old man. He spoke in too many riddles and his words always seemed to be at the root of any major upheaval. However, without him, they might very well have been dead. She nodded as Jo announced that he was leaving and made no attempt to stop him. She boarded the vehicle, her jaw tight as she blinked back her tears. "If anyone else wishes to leave, now is the time. Paladin? If you'd care to give the order? We're ready to leave."

Posts: 331 07/17/09 2:37 PM Cry Havoc, and let loose the Dogs of War	"Not hurt, just... hurting." Raze slowly wrapped his fingers around the self same handle bar she had been tugging on earlier, before placing a leg at the foot of the bike for leverage. "On the count of three." He'd have to pull with his body, rather than his arms, since even moving them was difficult. "One..." It was as if a massive dose of lactic acidosis had built up in them from usage. "Two..." Thankfully, the condition seemed to better quickly enough. "Three!" Heave ho.

Posts: 729 07/17/09 5:22 PM BRAHNZ! NOM NOM NOM!	I returned the nod to Ayuban and continued my smoke. I watched him walk off to the Humvee. I felt it was kinda stupid to be going in the condition they were in but I suppose it would be alright. I take a last drag and exhale a stream of smoke as I flick the cig away. I spot John standing around aimlessly and give a wave before moving back into the vehicle. Whether he took it as an invitation to come along or a goodbye was up to him. I go to take a seat noting the new tainted girl and consider the conversation that was going on around me only moments earlier. "She coming? If so then let's roll out already." I point at Freya with my thumb before taking a seat. I chuckle to myself realizing that I wouldn't want to be in that humvee with a decent sense of smell right now.

Her eyes glowed brightly so it was almost like someone turned a flashlight on Freya's face. "It's your choice." She closed her eyes and looked away and leaned against a free spot. "Doctor, Prin and Zero, will they make it?" Jack was taking care of the dead. She had to worry about the dying.

Posts: 1469 07/17/09 10:57 PM Tries Too Hard	Jack had stepped out of the humvee and not walked far when Ayuban had returned, with Prophet's still fresh corpse. Jack takes it from him. "Agreed." He returns to the humvee and by now Joseph has returned from the Order craft, requesting permission to accompany him. He smirks at the request. "You did more than well today. I didn't catch it all but I thought I saw you takin' on two or three men at once and holding your own. And these Halloweeners are not just any three. We'd be in worse shape without you, and you were vital to us surviving our last trip to the Junkyard. I'll be glad to have you, Joseph." His respect for the man was growing. Out of a lot of the newer additions to the Mill, he wasn't crazy, or arrogant, or disloyal. He didn't argue like many of the women did. He was rock solid. Jack didn't want him to meet the same fate as the last "Jo" who was like that. Jack nods at Miranda with a bit of a sigh. "Fine. I am a little weary of stubborn women eager to get maimed in my life, but I'm not in the mood to argue with you. Let's go." Jack stashes Prophet in the back seat; Miranda and Glen were already in the car and Joseph would be getting in. Jack picks one of his knives out of the skull of a dead Halloweener and tucks it back into a sheathe before sitting in the driver's seat. He scopes out the wheel and the stick shift of the vehicle. "This looks like a nice machine," before he starts to rev the engine up to leave, barring any distractions.
