[size=1][I]It’s fucking hot here. Let’s forget the fact that I’m not a huge fan of the heat, but let’s focus on the fact that we find ourselves in Texas. The biggest asshole state, ever. Maybe it’s because I’m an East Coast junky, but this place is a shithole and the people here are equally worthless. No wonder they need us for this small bounty. But hey, money’s money.

Times have gotten a little rougher, and our reputation isn’t helping. The group is getting hungry for bigger fish. I wish it could be better…but here we are. In Texas, chasing a small minnow with five starving mouths. The guys, and girls, aren’t happy with the winnings. So, that just makes this trip all the more tense.

Angela Hernandez. We will get you, rip you to shreds, and take every lousy penny your pathetic bounty has offered. I won’t let my gang starve to death for your stupidity!

Goddamn it’s so fucking hot here. [/I]

[b]”Yo, Grim. You wanna let me read some of that soap opera you’ve been writing?”[/b] Mr. B tossed an empty coffee cup into the back seat.

[b]”Nah, man. I’m afraid you’d weep your lil’ eyes out,”[/b] Grim smirked, folding his small binder closed.

The car roared with laughter as Mr. B shot Grim a fierce look in the rearview mirror. Lily spun around in her seat, right next to the cocky driver, flashing him a devilish grin.

[b]”What are you looking at, woman?”

“So nice to see such soft feelings from Mr. B,”[/b] her silky accent floated.

[b]”You want to see these soft feelings, Lily? I’ll be more than happy to oblige you!”[/b] arrogantly he groped himself and gave the Korean a wink.

[b]”You’re disgusting,”[/b] Lace uttered, staring out of the window, [b]”Pull this hunk of junk over so I can vomit.”[/b]

Grim smiled, biting on his pen. His eyes flickered back and forth between the two, seeing Mr. B’s reaction. He merely rolled his eyes and came to a red light. Alex groaned, undoubtedly annoyed, and turned to Grim.

[b]”Any tips on this Angela broad? We’ve been on this case for two days, and I seriously want to get the hell out of this state before I commit to a criminal act,”[/b] Alex stretched his arms and pressed the palms of his hands up against the ceiling of the car.

[b]”Yes, actually. I got an anonymous call from a ‘friend’ of hers. He gave us an address we might find her. Mr. B is driving us there now,”[/b] Grim opened his window.

[b]”Finally, some action,”[/b] Lace cooed.[/size]

[COLOR="DarkOrchid"][FONT="Times New Roman"][i]Lace settled back, drawing the omnipresent cigarette from behind her left ear. She brought it to her lips and shot a look towards Mr. B.[/i]

"My god I wonder who could possibly have a lighter in here?"

[i]Grim's upper lip twitched and he went back to what he was doing without any further interest. Lily shook her clutch purse with a certain amount of vigor then flipped it open in her lap. It dropped out a gun, a clip, a small leather pocketbook, a lipstick tube, a compact of powder, and a switchblade.[/i]

"Definitely not me. Perhaps maybe our friendly driver has one?"

[i]Mr. B was about to say nothing as well, when Lace drew her one of her balisongs from her thigh sheath and flicked it open with a light twist of her wrist and swirled it across her fingers. The rhythmic sounds clacked lightly over the sounds of the car 's engine, and Mr. B's zippo appeared like magic. Lace snatched it up with a satisfied smile and flicked it open with a little mewl of happiness. She inhaled slowly, and handed back the zippo with general good cheer.

She leaned back and licked her lips slowly. With a little luck, she'd get to do the killing herself. Stealth was her specialty after all. But if it dissolved into the showdown at OK corral who really cared after all? Except for the part where Lace wasn't really good at that. Besides, she didn't even keep extra clips for her guns. One shot was usually all that was necessary anyway. But then again, she usually did the point blank thing anyway.[/i]

"So do I get to do the honors this time? It'll be so much fun."

[i]Her voice was cheerful and bright, which sounded odd enough in the generally sarcastic air of the car. Lace kept her butterfly knife out, and giggled through her cigarette. Lily chuckled as well, replacing everything in her purse haphazardly.[/i]

"You got to do the last one."

"Yeah but there were the guards you all got to play with. I only got one."[/FONT][/COLOR]
