"That has to be the weirdest thing I've seen working this job, and I have seen a lot of weird shit."


Reed fixed him with an adorable look. You just wait, buddy. Then they got moving.

She was glad to leave the power-room turned furnace behind. Truth be told, it was about the weirdest thing she'd seen Trano do, too, and she kept looking at him while the group hurried down the tunnels.

A steel door led to a flight of stairs that would return them to the ground level. The Knights cleared passage ahead of her and Trano. She touched him on the arm. "There will be backup fuel cells."
Her expression was thoughtful. "They're unlikely to think of them, but many operate on automatic sensors. I won't risk operations on the chance they turn on in the middle of a firefight."


He looked back at her. He had been none too interested in leaving the safety of the Fortress in the first place. A delay in returning was probably low on his list of favorite things at the moment.

"Then let's go get rid of them. I'm not a fan of dying for nothing."
He considered for a moment. "Any idea where they'd be?"


The Knights turned half way up the staircase. She held the weight of the door open with the side of her foot, and flicked a daring gaze back at the nearest Knight. She lowered her voice to answer him.

"Yeah. I do."
She smirked, leaned in close and pecked a kiss on his cheek. Of course, in doing so, her palm on his chest shoved hard, and between the leverage from her foot and sheer upper body strength, he flailed clear of the door.

She spun and slammed the door shut. In a flash the loud rings of rounds on steel echoed painfully in her ears. True to her reflexes and aim, the door's mechanism jammed, and the electronics monitoring the lock flipped from green to red. Reed stared calmly at the panel for a moment. Trano was likely still recovering, but steel was a flimsy fence for a wizard. She needed to hurry or he would demand to come with her.

Reed checked the rifle and took off running.
