Koko watched as the bullet smashed into the raider's shoulder & crouched, drawing her combat knife. She raised an eyebrow for a brief moment at the raider's apparent idiocy when he came out from behind the bike. In a flash she ran around behind the bike & crept quickly towards the gunman. Once close enough she wrapped on arm round him with surprising strength & held her knife to his throat with the other hand. There was a heavy note of loathing & sarcasm in her voice when she spoke,
"Hey hun, miss me?"
It was at this moment that Koko realised her mistake, she was holding down the raider's bad arm, leaving his unharmed arm free to move.
Ah s**t....
(Captain's note - yeah, I don't like people dying in my guild so I don't want him to get shot >.>)

Jackal half grinned, half grimaced as the merc roughly placed a knife to his throat.
Upon hearing her remark, he laughed, racked by course coughing as he did so, but laugh he did, both long, and hard. Much to the girls apparent confusion.
With a gasp, Jackal raised his magnum.
"Oh, I missed you so much my dear" he cooed "But luckily you came back to me" He laughed again "All on your own..."
Jackal grinned sadistically as he fired a slug off into her gut.

For a moment there was no pain when the bullet hit, but then an explosion of agony rippled out from Koko's stomach. She grimaced but didn't go down; instead she stabbed her blade deep into the raider's good arm & sliced downwards, causing a long deep wound, before stumbling backwards. She coughed up a bit of blood & clutched her stomach but remained on her feet & snarled at him,
"You b*****d....."
The bullet had travelled at a slight angle, missing her vitals - but it still hurt like hell.

Hearing the crack of another gun shot brought John to his senses. He quickly checked himself, making sure it wasn't him that was shot.
John looked up to see the female merc stab the raider, then cough up blood. "Ah s**t..." He murmured. John holstered his weapons quickly and rushed over to the bike.
John started pulling his first aid kit out of his combat vest. He placed a gentle hand on Koko's shoulder. "May I?" He held up the first aid kit

Jackal screamed savagely as the merc tore up his good arm, a malicious grimace appearing on his face.
"Aargh! F**k! You b**ch!"
Within a few seconds the scream had once again changed to horrific laughter, the raiders face creasing up with pain and hatred as he writhed: "HAHAHAHA!!!! Oh I hath felt loves sweet sting!" He screamed.
Jackal attempted to lash out at the girl but his kick landed short, just as the soldier appeared.
"Aaaah, its you, charmed as always to make a new aquaintance" he said with a threatening tone to his voice.
He attempted to raise his magnum but winced with pain as his arm dropped back down to the sand.
Jackal was losing blood, but his adrenaline and sheer ferocity was keeping him conscious, as he growled at the pair.
He laughed to himself once more, a sick grin etched onto his face.
"Hahaha, two on one my chums, two on one"
He snarled.
"F**k the both of you..."

Koko looked over at the solidier for a moment & made a small half-smile,
"I appreciate the offer, but the timing's a little off don't ya think?"
She then turned her attention back to the gunman & made herself stand up straighter, despite the pain. She contemplated the situation for a moment or two then smirked,
"What happened to your big reward plan huh? Not so flirtacious now, instead you resort to swearing. Not very flattering I must say."
Koko slowly moved forward & retrieved her dropped blade, holding it out in front of her.
"I think the only thing I'm interested in is the bike."
Her gaze flickered in it's direction; she couldn't help it. The machine was something she'd never seen before & she was intruiged. But she didn't lower her guard where the raider was concerned, if he moved she was ready to counter.

A familiar shadow fell over the battlefield as the Aiolos hung effortlessly overhead, all weapons armed and ready.
Zed spoke over the loudspeaker.
"Right guys, it's been fun, but the shows over, put the f***ing guns down or i'll paint the desert with ya!"
Zed grinned as all turrets locked on to Jackal and John.

John looked at the ship and took in what the pilot said. John went red.
"Can I not go for more then five f******g minutes without someone threatening to shoot me or trying to shoot me?!"
With this, John stormed over to the wreckage of his bike, kicking it violently along with a wordless yell of rage, the steel in his boots echoing around the desert. John sat down next the bike, pulling off his helmet. He held his head in his hands, sobbing.

Jackal grinned, looking around at the current situation he formed a plan. The soldier was over by his bike crying (the word "wimp" crossed his mind), and the girl was distracted by the huge ship that loomed overhead.
In a second, Jackal had summoned all of his remaining strength and launched himself from the ground, wrapping his wounded, but powerful right arm around the girls neck, jamming his magnum (painfully) into the girls temple with his left.
Jackal took a moment to delight in the reactions of all those around him. He put his mouth uncomfortably close to the girls ear and whispered mock-tenderly: "I knew you'd warm up to me eventually my dear, look at the guy up in the ship, whats it called... The "Aiolos"? He really cares about you doesnt he?" He shouted the last part of his scentence, "I'm sure he'd hate for something bad to happen to you!"
He grinned maliciously...

As the arm went round her neck, Koko began to struggle, until the magnum was pressed against her head. She grunted slightly both from the agony in her stomach & the new pain in her head. She felt a shiver run down her spine as the raider whispered in her ear, realising how much danger she could be in. She also silently cursed hersefl for lowering her guard when the Aiolos had showed up. Even in this situation though, she managed to speak through clenched teeth, her voice low & angry.
"My name is Koko, not 'my dear' I'll have you know."
She wondered for a moment what Zed would do, he didn't tend to follow the norm.

The Aiolos hovered still, up and out of harm's reach. A figure dropped from the ship, landing on one knee in the soft sand.
Zed slowly got to his feet then continued towards Koko and Jackal, he was unarmed but confident.
He stood before them and spoke clearly, avoiding eyecontact with Jackal.
"I'm unarmed. Release her and i'll go in her stead, my bounty is worth at least twice as much as hers."

John looked up as the ship drew nearer, he watched as a figure dropped from it. John cast his gaze over to the bike and tensed as he saw the female merc was hostage to the raider. The pilot spoke his deal, and was waiting for a reply

Jackal grinned, the raider in him shining brighter now than it had in a while. It felt liberating. "Pleased to make your aquaintance Koko" he smirked.
"Oh, how the tables have turned." He laughed
Looking at the figure that had dropped from the ship Jackal smiled maliciously and shook his head "Nah mate" he snarled "I'm not interested in you, me and the lady here have something personal going on, between the two of us so it were."
Jackal stepped backwards toward the bike.
"Now in a second, I'm going to get on this bike, with your charming other half here, If you shoot, or even f***ing breathe too heavily, she dies, you got it?"
Jackal stood with a grin on his face, waiting for the two mens reaction...

Koko had no choice but to step backwards with the raider, looking in Zed's direction. She was trying to figure out some way of getting free - though all ended with her getting her brains blown out - so she resigned herself to going along with the raider for now. Although, when the gunman spoke of 'something personal' between them she couldn't help but snap at him.
"In your dreams ya bloody raider!"
Her gun wound was really beginning to make itself known now but she continued to ignore it, knowing there were worse things to worry about.

John watched, his hand twitching towards his sniper. His other hand slowly moving to his throwing knives. Despite the fact that he might harm Koko, elminating the raider was his main priority, still is his main priority
