"What are friends for?" Victor asked with a smile as he walked back to the kitchen

Skyla smiled to herself as she watched him. 'Friends, huh?" she thought, liking the sound of the word. She never had a real frien before. It was a nice feeling.

Skyla blinked. "Um, no thank you." she replied, placing the cup down. "But thanks for your offer. I prefer my own place. No offense." she added, bowing her head.

"No problem. I could always sound proof it for some 'guests we need to question." Victor said.

"That sounds like a very good idea." Skyla replied, nodding adn liking the idea. "You know...you're pretty decent." she added as an afterthought.

Skyla had the decency to blush. "Yeah, I did...." she replied, looking down and fiddling with her skirt. "Sorry for assuming...." she added even more quietly.

"Don't worry about it. I wasn't doing anything to make a good impression right off the bat." Victor said as he started cooking the burgers. He had to wrap his left hand in plastic so the nanites didn't deconstruct the meat before he cooked up four burgers.

"So...how did you become a Law?" she asked, again attempting to make conversation and to get to know her partner a little better. Hoepfully.

"Got caught up in a shootout between the enforcers and rebels. They shot my left arm off at the shoulder joint and I was going to help some civilians who got caught in the middle of the gunfight. Needless to say, they got killed and I swore to myself that so long as I am breathing that I will never let that happen again." Victor said "I'm one lucky son of a b***h to live through that. The doctors couldn't reattach my arm, so they gave me this little beauty. They said 'now you have the left hand of God on your side' and I have been taking down enforcers and rebels left and right when they attacked me. And it wasn't a sight you would ever want to see."

Skyla winced at the mention of the Rebels and Enforcers. "That must have been one hell of a day..." she replied, before shaking her head. "Wow, you went through a lot...I gotta give you props for it, man. I have reached a whole new level of respect for you, but that doesn't mean I'm not gonna give you hell from time to time." she added, smiling slightly.

"'a helluva day' is an understatement. it was one of the worst days of my life, but also one of the best. reason it was one of the worst is because people died and i lost my arm. one of the best because it gave me a purpose and a new arm and a new weapon to use against the rebels. if you want to see what this hand is capable of, throw me a piece of metal that you don't really care too much about." Victor said with a smile. "As far as giving me hell, you just wouldn't be you if you didn't raise a little hell."

Skyla let out a cross between a snort and a giggle before composing herself. "Maybe some other time." she replied, smiling back. JUst about then, her stomach made a gowling sound that would put a bear's to shame. She blushed darkly, placing a hand on her stomach. Oops.
