*I start to feel my heart sink. I was mad...why was I mad? I'm going mad, that's why.... Now I've hurt him and everyone and...oh, geez. Everything is falling apart.... I turn to the Doctor and Sona.* Get ready, you two. We leave in ten. But if we run into any massive roadblocks we're turning back. *I wait for them to scatter before I kneel a little ways off from Aftermath's side. It seems safer to remain quiet for a while, so that's what I do.*

*I simply nod and leave the two be to deal with their little 'lovers quarrel'. Or whatever you'd want to call it; a nuisance? That's rude, though. I was practically ready to leave, so it was up to them when we left.*

Vol... just take the kids out already. The more we wait here, the less of a chance we have of rescuing fire. Just come back. If not, you know what will happen. *I sigh and sit up.* Help me up? Please?

Of course. *I grab his hands and pull him to his feet. Once he's steady, I wrap my arms around him loosely and rest my head on his chest.* Hey, I'm sorry. I just...don't know. I think she came back again. I just...Nox and...oh, it's not an excuse. *I sigh, let go, and back up.* We'll be back soon. Just...do you think I could have a few bullets for this thing? *I hold up Basilisk's gun.* It's kind of...empty.

*I reach into my coat pocket and hand her six .45 caliber rounds.* These don't come cheap, and they aren't common. Make the shots count. Just... come back safe, alright? *I pull her close and kiss her forehead*

If they're that special, I'll just take one of our many unused rayguns. Don't want to waste the things. *I pull him a bit closer, savoring the fact that we're getting along now, and smile gently.* We will. And we'll try our hardest to get Fire back. If Sona or the Doctor get hurt, though, I'm abandoning ship. It would be just my luck to get another one caught when we're trying to get her out. *I sigh and slump a bit.* I just hope she's still alive....

Just get out there. Any trouble, and you guys head back as soon as you can. Fire's strong, she can handle herself for a while longer. Just do what you can, alright? *I let go of her and walk over to the Doctor* You all set to go?

*I wince a little bit, almost positive that he's still mad at me. I've probably done lasting damage. I really do hate myself, I think as I grab a raygun from the office and plug a fresh battery into it.*

*I look to the group and smile* You guys are perfect for this job. Be safe, alright? Doctor, remember what I said about Vol. If se tries to run away, you go after her. If you find even the slightest bit of trouble, come back. I don't want to lose anyone else.

*It feels like it's been weeks since the group took off to rescue Fire. I don't know if they made it, or even if they're okay. I feel uneasy, as if something terrible has happened. I sit and clean my gun for what seems like the fifth time today. I moved on to my shirt, eventually, and tried scrubbing away the blood. Sometimes, the water never cleans off your clothes.* C'mon, guys... come back soon...

((From "Return to Sender", page 12.))
*I linger outside the door for a moment, trying to figure out how exactly to say "I failed". It's not going to be easy. This was the first (most likely last) mission that I had commanded. What is wrong with me?! If I hadn't dawdled at Vanity's...if I had killed the members of that BLI unit like a real Killjoy would have...if I hadn't just cut my losses and run and had instead fought my way through for Fire like friends are SUPPOSED to, would I have succeeded? If I had disregarded the possibility of dying, would I have won? I finally take a deep breath, usher Vico and Sona inside, then step in myself.* Aftermath...we're home....

Yes, I'm still running - sort of. But it is lonely out here. Haven't seen anyone else for a while.
