Eric raised his hands up and steped back from Jasmine.
"Have I done any harm?" Eric said with a smile, "Can't a gentilman give a lady a compliment?"
X-T watched Eric and Pain's argument with a grin, then looked over at Vendetterous. She pushed off the rubel and walked over to him. She looked up in his face with caring eyes.
"Hey, there somthin' th' matter? Ya can tell me 'bout it," X-T said quietly.

"I don't mind you givin' her a compliment, just don't get to cozy with my girl" Pain's eyes were blazing.
It was Jasmine's turn to get angry. Her eyes began to glow. "Your girl? In your dreams bub."

Eric crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows.
"You're Zakk. I can tell. X-T did say something about you, but I shall not repeat it, for it is much to harsh,"

"Come on, you can tell me what Darlin' thinks about me." He flashed a cunnig smile. "I bet she says that she is secretly in love with me"

Eric rubbed the back of his neck as his eyebrows moved inwards.
"Well, she didn't say that," Eric said with a smile.
After hearing what Pain had said, she pouted, raised an eyebrow, and turned her head towards his direction.
"Ya wish I did, ya punk," X-T said through her teeth, then turned her attention back to Vendetterous.

"I feel the need to break something." Vendetterous looked at x-t, He was not one to explain his actions or talk about feelings. He had never been taught how to deal with them, but his name reflected his desire.
"They came in the night...we never had a chance"

Pain puckered his lips at X-T. "All in fun Darlin'." He turned his attention back on Eric. "But serioulsy what did she say?"

Ignoring Pain, X-T put her hands on his shoulders, making eye contact.
"Hey hey, it's alright. It wasn't yer fault. Nobody, not even me, would have been perpared fer that," X-T said careingly, "An' ya have th' right ta be angry. Trust me, ya have th' right,"
Eric raised an eyebrow and smirked.
"Wouldn't you like to know," Eric sadi with a smile.

"No...its not alright, and it won't be until I have paid them all back in kind..."
Vendetterous turned away, and took a few steps but stopped, "I will find you, I have to get more supplies. If it is as you say, then I need to get those supplies to your friends."
Vendetterous was an interesting man. He respected these people, they were an enemy that he hoped would have been an ally, but when they were he was not prepared for it, and it was not the circumstance he wanted. But he could help them, he had skills, an ability to get a hold of hard to find items.

X-T bit her lip, then rested a hand on his shoulder.
"Thank you Vendetterous," X-T said, reaching into her pocket and handing him a small, circular device, "In case ya need me, jus' press th' button in th' center. I can hear th' sound from it from miles away,"

"i thank you" Vendetterous pocketed the device and continued to walk away. It may not have been the safest time to take off, but Vendetterous knew his way about and how to avoid patrols.
"take care of yourselves."
And Vendetterous disappeared from view and headed towards an exit in the parking garage.

Jasmine wathced the arguement between Eric and Pain with amuesment. She walked over adn stood next to X-T. "Kinda funny ain't it. To boys argueing over something like this when the world is coming to an end."
"Yes, I would like to know." Pain cracked his knuckles, even though he showed a tough exterior he was kinda insecure.

Vendetterous knew the searches were focusing in on the mall, that within a few hours the place would be crawling with constructs. He intended to buy time for his new found comrades. He crept up the ramp to the main level of the parking structure, the one that opened up to the ground. There were not search parties in there yet, but time was not on his side in this matter. It was still considered broad daylight, and there was little cover left to run between since the scourging had begun. Vendetterous still had a trick or two left. He ran to the far side of the structure, there was a ledge that ran half way up the opening but left an opening to the air. He looked quickly, to his dismay there was a rather large metalic man standing right in his path to the next patch of cover. He thought quickly about options, and decided to go for it. He made it halfway across the grounds before the robot spotted him, and he made it another 30 feet before the robot began to fire. Vendetterous ducked and rolled, heading for a concrete store house of some sort that would offer him some cover as well as an entrance to the sewer system and a better means of travel.
Inside the mall the sounds of combat could be heard, faint at first, but as more of the robots heeded the call, the battle began to grow. Vendetterous hoped his friends wouldn't be foolish enough to try and help him.

Eric raised an eyebrow, his arms still crossed.
"Are you trying to intimidate me, boy?" Eric said, the corner of his mouth raising, "How funny,"
X-T sighed, crossing her arms and rubbing her forehead.
"Ain't like I'm surprised though... Th' first time I met Eric, we had an argument fer about an hour. Can't remember what it was about, though," X-T said, followed by a little laugh. She then heard the sound of guns firing, knowing that it wasn't that far away. Vendetterous... She thought quietly to herself, but knew that he would not want her help without his asking.

Jasmine turned when she heard the sound of gunfire. She started to run out to help but then stopped when she realized no one else was coming. "Aren't we going ot help him?"
PAin took a step closer to Eric. "You find me funny?"[/color

Eric bowed a little bit, crossing his legs.
"Now, sir, I never said you were funny," Eric said with a smile, "I didn't see you as the man who likes to jost around,"
X-T turned to Jasmine.
"Vendetterous is what I call a silent soldier, he only wants help when he's on the brink of dying," X-T said with a shrug, "I gave him a communicator so's he can reach us at any time,"

Jasmine nodded and walked back over. "Alright, So how long should we wait?"
Pain cracked his knuckles again. "OK Bub you and me right now. No powers"

Vendetterous made it another 50 feet, he was close, nearly to the shed and his access to the sewer system. The bullets were ricocheting off of his black carapace, but a stray laser blast landed a little to close to him, knocking him off his feet. Vendetterous rolled, but came up right into the hand of an awaiting sentinal. He pulled he gun and blasted the mass reactive rounds into the hand spinning away from it. He got back up on his feet stumbling clumsily as he mad the last mad dash for the concrete shed. He dove into the house and down the grate into the sewer just as another massive laser blast struck the structure, levelling it.

Eric stood up straight, a frown on his face.
"Come now, did I offend thee? Such actions shouldn't be waisted on something so little of importance," Eric said with a smile, "And we shouldn't act such actions in front of women,"
X-T turned to Jasmine and sat on the ground.
"We don' wait," She said with a sigh, "We wait 'till he wants us," X-T looked up and saw the argument still going on between Eric and Pain.
"Zakk... Eric... would you jus' lay off each other? This ain't th' time ta be fightin'," X-T said rubbing her forehead, "When th' world goes back to normal and I can shower regualarly and eat foods that I don't care how much I'll have the next day, then ya two can fight,"

Pain sighed. "Alright Darlin' if you insist." He shrugged. "Didn't want ot kick his butt anyway.
