"We still have a chance. I can’t give up now.”
-------------------------------------
Ryder gave a little chuckle at Jo's response to Pugsy and Ivy going out. He could sense the edge of disapproval in her voice, but he really didn't mind. As she mentioned that she had been trying to cheer him up all month, though, he seemed a bit guilty, his mouth turning down into a small frown.
"Yeah...sorry about that. I just...I know that you were trying your best and all, but it was just...really rough. I know that I should've been at least a little bit more responsive, but I didn't realize, at the time..."

"Oh, uh, it`s okay." Jo explained hesitantly, rubbing the back of her neck. "I mean -- it was pretty rough on everyone, I think. But, seeing you in particular just dragging your feet around and being so mopey was just. Really sad. Remember when I tried to steal that truck? Kraven was just right there and I don`t even think you looked at him twice until he tried to blow me up. That`s just sad. Thanks, by the way." Of course, she was sort of preoccupied at the time with running over Mr. Ghoul, but she observed what she could through her mirrors. She had actually been keeping a tight watch on Ryder for that whole month, though the appearance of Pugsy and Chelsea made it a little easier on her. She sighed wistfully, kicking her legs lightly. "I`m just glad things are finally looking up for us a little, y'know? Like, so maybe Jade and the Inquisitor are getting together and stuff, but they both have an expiration date. And now that we have Black Dragon and the Family sorta on our side? It`s like -- the end of this whole stupid war is right here."

"I'm just glad that I had everyone supporting me back then..." Ryder said, giving a bit of a sigh. It had really been a rough month. There had been some days when he had just literally laid in bed all day and done nothing but stared at the wall. And he'd done things like that because it had genuinely felt like nothing mattered anymore. But now--he felt better. Much better. Ivy was back, and well--he knew that he had to get over Wynn's death eventually. No matter how hard it was.
He listened to Jo speak of the alliance, and then nodded, agreeing with her, and smiled.
"I sure as hell hope that we can end this stupid war. Just gotta take Worm and Inquisitor down, then we can finally live in peace...no need to worry about anyone attacking us or anything...that sounds really nice."

Jo bitterly recalled the last month, a small sigh escaping her as she did. It hadn`t really been the easiest of things to endure. She spent the entirety of it dealing with the war, and the politics it had begun to involve. She threw herself into training, inflicting her anger upon the remnants of the Inquisitor faction, and just wondering where she went wrong. It hadn`t been long, but she already felt significantly less burdened. Like a huge weight had been lifted off her subconscious since then. She couldn`t put a finger on why.
"It really does..." She mused idly, descending onto her back again as she flopped ungracefully onto her bed. "There`s just... nothing I`d like more."
Jo remained silent for a moment, listening to but not watching the still playing movie and mouthing the words as she did. Because you just know she knows every word of it by heart. You just know it. Until she suddenly asked, "Hey, Ryder...? Uh, do you know what you`re gonna do after all this? Like... do you wanna leave the city?"

Entering the land was risky, having to stay out in the open with his hands up as he walked down the line towards where the rumored lift was. Once he was there, having no access down the lift, he pulled out two butterfly knives and stabbed the wasteland-appearing lift. He slowly cut around a hole that was big enough for him to yell down into. "OI! Can I come inside?" He yelled through the hole, even though he betrayed them, almost got them all killed, sided with a man who made them despise conqueror worm entirely, he had to help....he needed to help this group if what the inquisitor was planning was accurate.

Ryder looked at Jo as she asked what he was going to do after...and he had to actually hesitate a moment to think about it.
"Well...my original reason for wanting to get out was wanting to get back to my family...but I mean...my entire family--or...what's left of it...is here now. So...I really don't know what I'm going to do after. I've been so distracted with everything going on with the war...that I never really thought about it, I guess..." And that was the truth. He really hadn't given it any thought at all. It would be nice...and yet, almost strange to not be at war. "Do you know what you're gonna do, Jo?"

Chelsea, having been spending time with Emilia's new horse, was still near to the entrance. And because of that, she jumped when she heard a horrible grinding noise of somebody...cutting a hole? What was that? She walked tentatively towards the entrance, then heard a voice shouting down asking if they could come in. She paused for a moment, glancing around nervously, then looked up towards where the voice had come from, and called,
"U-Um...well...th-that depends on whether you're on our team or not...i-if you're not on our team, I-I think that I need to ask you to leave...because letting in bad people is...um...b-bad." She rested a hand on the knife that Emilia had given her, the blade still in its holster, which now hung from her skirt's waistband. "B-But, if you're with us, then I guess it'd be okay to let you in...u-um...but how can I be sure...? Th-Then again...shouldn't all of the people on our team be able to get in on their own...? U-Unless you're from The Family...I know that we're allied with them and all now..." Any older members of the team probably would have recognized Akuryo's voice--but Chelsea had joined more recently, so frankly, she had no idea who this guy was.

Jo blinked, taking a moment to register what Ryder had said. The member of Ryder`s family she knew of that was in No Man's land was his sister, Chelsea. Upon realizing what that meant, she fell completely silent. She shouldn`t have asked that question. Looking away from him bitterly, her sight flickered back as he spoke her name. She opened her mouth to respond, but quickly shut it as she thought for a moment. "I... Uh..." Now that she was evicted from Paladin, she didn`t know what she was going to do. The plan had evolved from 'Kill Subject 8, Save World, Get Medal, Move on to Next Mission' to 'Kill Jade, Kill Inquisitor, Use Paladin as an excuse to take Vultures to Scarlet City'. Of course, it had many alterations in between, but that was pretty much it. She mused in silence for a moment, pursing her lips as she did.
"I guess... I don`t know. I haven`t heard from any family since I entered Paladin training... and that was a few years ago already." She frowned, remembering her last interaction was with her step brother, informing her that her mom had passed the previous night before she was shipped over to Paladin`s headquarters. She never truly mourned the women`s death, but she really should have taken that as a hint to just go home. "... That`s pretty sad. I actually don`t know what I want to do after all this." Jo confirmed, biting the inside of her cheek in slight irritation.

"Well, then, we're equally as clueless about it. That's okay, I guess," he chuckled quietly, giving Jo a gentle smile. "Oh well. We'll figure it out when the time comes. One step at a time and all, right?" He really didn't want to think about what would happen afterwards, honestly. It would probably mean everyone splitting up, after all. This super awkward family that was Vulture Team--well, it was precious to him now. Before he had joined Vulture, he was so single-mindedly focused on just getting out, getting back home...but now, oddly enough, this had become home. And the thought of everyone going their separate ways...well, it actually made him a bit sad.

"U-Um...could you tell me who you are, first?" Chelsea sighed, replying to Akuryo. "We kind of just suffered an attack...a-and I really don't want to be responsible for causing another one if you turn out to be an enemy...s-so before I let you in...just tell me who you are? And if not...um...I could go tell her the message for you? I-It'd be like playing Telephone! E-Except that I wouldn't change the message...b-because that would be counter-productive..."

"H-Hey! I'm not a kid!" Chelsea objected to Akuryo calling her a kid, crossing her arms and sighing. Then, he finally told her who he was. "A...Akuryo? A-As in Akuryo Beckwood?!" Oh, she had heard loads about this guy over the time that she'd been there. She'd heard all about how he had apparently betrayed them, which was pretty bad...still, if he wanted to rejoin...that could be good...! But could she really trust him...?
"Um...d-do...you promise not to stab things if I let you in...?"

Chelsea jumped a little bit as the knife was dropped down, but then went over and carefully picked it up, examining it. It did indeed say the word 'trust' on it...
Chelsea paused, still nervous. What if he was lying...? What if she endangered everyone by letting him in...?
...But what if she endangered everyone by not letting him in?
She walked over to the lift switch, activating the lift to allow Akuryo inside.
"Oh...I hope that this isn't a bad idea..."

Jo shifted back to sitting up on the bed -- seemingly unable to decide between the more socially acceptable option or the more comfortable one. She coursed her fingers through her hair, grumbling under her breath as she did. "Yeah, I guess... I`m just used to having things more figured out. I... kind of hope we don`t separate. Uh, Vulture Team as a whole, I mean. That would kind of suck." She said in a disappointed mutter, looking over at Ryder with a rather sleep deprived expression. She yawned, covering her mouth as she did. She felt pretty drowsy, but she was the master of avoiding sleep. She was pretty determined to just stay up until her body forced her to go to sleep. Maybe she was enjoying Ryder`s company just a bit too much. It had been a while since she felt so close to someone, honestly. She studied him for a moment in silence before flickering her gaze back to her television, pretending to be interested in the movie she`d seen about twenty thousand times. Of course, it was still a master piece, but she wasn`t too into it this time around. "... I`m sorry about that one time I called you an ass face."

As Jo yawned, Ryder found himself replying with a big yawn of his own--yawns were infectious, after all. He knew that he was tired--and yet, he didn't feel like he was. It was that odd sort of feeling when you're so tired, that...you just don't feel tired at all.
"Yeah...seeing everyone split up would pretty much suck...I hope it doesn't happen..." he shrugged, giving her a tired smile. The fact that he was sitting on her bed paired with the fact that he was kind of tired made it really hard not to just flop backwards and lie down. But, he reminded himself--this was Jo's bed. He didn't want to be a creep. He rubbed his tired eyes, then looked at Jo in mild surprise as she apologized to him for the insult she had made so long ago. He grinned, giving a small laugh. "What, that? All's forgiven, don't even worry about it."

Bunny emerged from her cave that was her room, and looked around a bit. It was quiet. She walked around, only to see Chelsea talking to Akuryo! What the hell was HE doing there?! She grappled up, in front of Chelsea, pointing a gun at him. "What in gods name are YOU doing here? And who let you in?" she asked, ready to fire at a moments notice.
Kat was still giggling.
"Oh this is so good. I haven't been able to do this in a long time. Stupid work and stuff. Once my neck heals, I'll be able to get to the other stuff..." she giggled and kept going.

"O-Oh my--!" Chelsea exclaimed in surprise as Bunny suddenly jumped in between her and Akuryo and demanded why the man was here. Wait...was he actually a bad guy? As Bunny asked who let him in, Chelsea visibly paled, looking down at the floor and fidgeting with her hands, wringing them together nervously. What if she got in trouble for letting Akuryo in? Oh no...she'd never be allowed out of the base ever, if she messed up twice in one day!

Jo`s eyebrows knitted slightly in concern as she noted Ryder`s yawn. He was probably as tired as she was. Part of her wanted to urge him to go to bed, but that would involve him leaving her. Unless -- no. Not unless, she reminded herself. Don`t give him the wrong idea.
"Oh. I mean -- I insulted you more in private." She added, placing an elbow on her knee and resting her head in her palm as she looked at her friend with interest. "I think that was the same night I read Jack`s letter... man, I must have read that thing, like, forty times. 'Jo, I'm counting on you to keep these losers in line.' --" She quoted the letter like the bible, attempting to mimic Jack`s voice. She read that letter whenever she was in need of comfort; it actually did a rather horrible job at that, though, since it assumed that Jo had already killed Jade. She always felt a tinge of resentment in herself as her eyes scanned through that part. "I don`t even remember what we were so mad about..." She mused, quirking an eyebrow as she did. "I-I was gonna apologize earlier, really, but then the whole kidnapping thing happened..."

Ryder nodded at Jo's mention of the letter, but in reality--he'd never heard anything about this letter before. Had Jo mentioned it to him before? He'd been so out of it for the past month, he couldn't even remember. As she recited the line from the letter, he smiled, giving a small chuckle.
"He was a great man. I feel lucky to have known him...no matter how many times he tried to make me cross-dress." He gave a slightly more spirited laugh then as he remembered the old times, when they had been in Highend, before Duda had died...before things had all started going down-hill...
"Really, there's no need to apologize..." he replied to Jo as she continued. "At the time, I was all stressed out and, well--being an assface. Like you said. Sooo, it was kinda my fault." With that statement, he flopped backwards onto the bed, laying there. It was so cushy and comfy...he laid there peacefully for a moment until he realized that this was Jo's bed, not his, and he shot back up into a sitting position again, a slight blush apparent on his face. "S-Sorry about that."

__________________________________________________________________________________________
Jo smiled sadly at the ground as Ryder spoke of Jack, the moment of solemn remembering broken as he mentioned cross-dressing. The blunette doubled over in uncompressed giggles, clenching her stomach. "Hey, it wasn`t entirely his idea! I want my credit where it`s due!" She insisted between her laughter, forcing herself to sit up straight again. She remembered that day rather fondly, up until the point where they had discovered Duda`s corpse. Waking up with a hang over after a night of turning Ryder to the dark side, Jack`s suggestion to put Bunny, Ivy and herself in bikinis only to switch over to Ryder via Ivy`s suggestion. She probably wouldn`t have had a real problem advertising for Vulture Team that way if her head wasn`t throbbing and Jack didn`t insist on shouting every word he spoke.
Her gaze flickered away from him as he apologized instead, her mouth forming a small pout. "It wasn`t your fault... I`m actually sorta a recovering alcoholic; so I was a bit used too fixing problems that way at the time, I guess... as cliche as it sounds, considering the whole ex-cop thing." She explained, looking over at Ryder again only to see he had flopped onto her bed. She knew it was comfy! The smallest smile of adoration appeared on her face, growing as he jolted back up with the faintest blush. Why did this kid insist on being so painfully adorable?
"N-No, that`s alright! I don`t mind if you lay down or anything. I-It`s pretty late, you must be kind of tired..."
He still wasn`t allowed to leave though.

"You want that kind of credit?" he asked her with another laugh, grinning as she seemed to insist that he include her in the credit for wanting him to wear a bikini. The whole bikini incident had been an overall horrible and embarrassing thing at the time, but he found himself able to laugh over it now. It was one of the precious few memories that they had back when everyone had been happy, for that small window of time.
He listened to her explain about her alcoholism, nodding at appropriate moments to show he was listening, and wearing a solemn face--a solemn face that lightened up when she told him that he was allowed to lie on the bed, and he immediately flopped back again.
"Your bed's so comfy, it should be illegal," he said with a light smile, closing his tired eyes, but keeping awake, for the most part.

"Yeah, that was hilarious!" She persisted with a giggle, the grin she wore showing a hint of malice. Those were definitely simpler times; she remembered how she had even managed to get Ryder`s newly imported gang in on it, too. He was in a wheelchair at the time, so it was probably pretty mean to drag him backwards against his will. Still funny, regardless.
Jo stifled another giggle as Ryder flopped onto her bed again. She waited a moment, then followed suit, laying next to him. "Your face should be illegal ..." She mused sleepily, staring up at the ceiling with a half lidded eye. She could feel herself subtly dozing off, but forced herself awake. She attempted to focus on the sounds of the film still playing in front of them, but it didn`t help much. Jo let out a small sigh, folding her arms behind her head. ".. I really appreciate you taking the time to come talk to me, Ryder."

"Oh, don't mention it...I love talking to you, Jo..." Ryder mumbled, half asleep already, at the point now where he didn't even seem to want to expend the effort to make his tired brain understand what Jo meant by his face needing to be illegal and all. "We can talk whenever you like...just say the word, and I'll..." he paused, giving another big yawn, "I'll come running...! Really fast...! Just...if there's ever anything bothering you...you can talk to me about it...if you want..."

A single knock on the entrance to Carrion Land, it changed into three knocks. Like a man knocking on a door. A footman walked over to the entrance, completely out of curiosity. As soon as the man walked to the door, it burst open, the metal entrance flung across the base, ripping the man in two. The Inquisitor, David Kruger floated into Carrion Land, all of its security was shut down, nothing was working. A horde of footmen flew into the entrance, a rapid response, all armed with firearms that could rip through a car in seconds. They all opened fire on The Inquisitor, they didn't even recognize him, but anyone who blasted through the door of their base wasn't someone they wanted alive. Every shot fired at the machine-man zoomed right towards him, only to come to a stop in front of him, every single one, until a clear field of bullets floated in front of the cyborg "How cute...!" the man called out telepathically, the field of bullet suddenly turned towards the attackers, and were then shot out at the footmen, they were all mowed down in mere seconds. David floated through the base, a powerful psychic aura surrounding the man, something like this had never been seen before in No Man's Land. David had only one goal in mind: Destory Vulture Team!
