*I scowl at the dickuloid as he walks away and turn back to Wilson, grabbing a few pill packets from his hand. I shove them in my pants pocket and lift the corner of my shirt and swivel till I can see the damage done. There's a bullet implanted between the hard fibers of my vest. I wince as I pull it out, fingers slipping on the blood. The bullet barely went through, luckily enough the vest stopped it's momentum. I press my hand to it and speak to Wilson.* Sir, should we join with the others or pursue and collect *I smirk at the word. I'm guess collect doesn't pertain to this situation.* any outlaying groups?

They're like hydras, you take out one, and three more take its place. *i continue to drive towards the city, everypart of my body yelling at me to go the other way. Well, every part except the stupid voice in my head* and here I was hoping I wouldn't have to go into the city again, but staying out here would be suicide

*I see the final line of Vipers approaching in the distance. They all have the explosive vests strapped to them.* Guys! Fall back, i have a plan! *I mutter under my breath* For once... *I grab a handful of grenades and strap them to the now immobile tank.* Wilson! Tell your unit to fall back! When they get close, I'll set off the explosives. It'll take 'em all out at once! *I look at Vol* You too. Go. *The grenades would have to be set off manually, and i'd rather it be me risking himself*

*I look over at IA, considering. I hate retreating, but I have nothing to lose at this point. If the killjoys accidentally blows himself up as well, that'll just be an added bonus for me*
Allright. Fallback, everyone, but don't hesitate to kill as many vipers as you can on the way.
*I point to a point of relative high-ground a few blocks away* Stay together, but if you get separated, meet there.

Tell me one place in this entire desert that's not like suicide.*I laugh at the sad truth that everyday is kill or be killed. We make it into the city in one piece, I can't say the same for the car though* Over there. *I point towards a group of people by a van not knowing if their friend or foe* If they're friends we help, if they're enemys we shoot... Sound like a good plan? 'cause I havn't got anymore.

*I push Vol towards the retreating group and order Garter to follow.* Go, i'll do this! *I take the pin off of a grenade once everyone is clear and toss it in. Vipers get closer to the tank and i hop off, sprinting for the hill. As the tank goes off, i'm thrown into the air and hit the earth with a thud. My vision blurs, but i see a line of Vipers exploding, one after the other. After a minute of nothing but explosions, the desert goes silent. Completely and utterly silent. I stumble up and feel a pain in my sides and my left arm.* I... Think... that was all of them... for now.

*I'd been trying to force my way back over to my friend and ally the entire time, knowing that he was going to something stupid. Like WHAT HE JUST DID. After the tank explodes, I force my way out of the grip of the Drac who was restraining me the entire time (out of concern! I could get used to that!) and run over to Aftermath, who's standing in a daze.* You absolute idiot! Geez, next time, don't do that! Where are you hurt? Do you need any help?

*has been standing with the BLI unit for a while. She walks down to Vol and IA after the explosions are over, licking blood off her fingernails.* So creepy, how not horrible it tastes. Hey, Aftermath...I liked the fireworks. *smiles slyly, intent on annoying the girl a little bit with her attention*

For the love of the Fabulous Four, don't encourage him! He'll do it AGAIN. *I glare at Vanity, wondering what exactly she thinks she's doing. As far as I know, Aftermath's pretty close to being coiled around her finger. He would actually LISTEN to her, and I don't want any more "fireworks".* And...don't lick your damned bloody fingers. What did you do, rip someone's throat out with your hands?

*im about to respond when a huge explosion goes off and I almost lose control of the car* What was that?! Better check and see if they're okay *I drive over towards the group of people and get ready to hop out, quickly brushing bits of glass off of my clothes and hair from when the window blew out*

*Frowns a bit and slides into the front seat* Fall back? What are we to do now then. *I start polishing the ray gun and Sigh as we head towards our meet up point*

*I look around after the explosion and my entire section of the unit is still there. Unfortunately, the killjoys seem to have made it though intact as well and there appear to be more coming. I radio Orwell, asking for a status update. Aerith finished off a few of the vipers who are still breathing and I can tell she is bored*
*I look over at Red, who looks revitalized after the pills have had a few minutes to take effect*
Lookout drill, now.

*I nod, not feeling great, but at least my head is clear again. Someone... Morand? Retro?... dragged me with the rest of the unit when we retreated. Then there was a giant explosion...? I shake my head and walk up to the building nearby. The ledges are just wide enough and close enough for me to scale the building. It helps that the windows were blown out form the blast as well. There are cuts on both my hands, but the pills dull the pain*
*It only takes me a minute before I am on top of the building. There are burning buildings everywhere and a swathe of land is covered in debris where the bulk of the fighting has taken place. Sporadic lights can be seen where emergency vehicles are trying to control the damage and there is screaming in the distance...civilians. Wilson radios, asking if I see any new vipers. I tap once for 'no'.*

*It's impossible to work out what vehicle it was that exploded, it's just a big cloud of smoke and fire now. Me and Blackie jump out of the car, I grab a medi kit from the back seat before we jog over to the others.* Is everyone okay? *In all my time out in the Zones I have never seen so much destruction, I mean yeah I want the city to burn but not like this, not with all this death*

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