Sparky stared out of the back window of the taxi cab. She frowned for a moment at the thought of leaving Super behind--it was the lazy thing she had wanted to do. At the same time though, she knew that Super was capable of taking care of himself, and knew he would be okay--or at least, she hoped he would. No matter how strong she knew he was, it didn't stop her from worrying nevertheless.
Bullet blinked a moment as he glanced over towards Lea. He thought he had seen her staring at him, before quickly looking away once again. Staring for a bit longer, he let out a sigh and closed his eyes. As curious as he was--he was still quite exhusted, and thus closed his eyes for a moment, as he began to think about a few things...one of those things, revolved around his feelings for Lea and what to do about them.

Lea looked out the window, when out of the corner of her eye she noticed Bullet stare back. It was a long look, which Lea was only able to respond with her face becoming redder, and her ears slightly folding back. It had been a while now since Lea had feelings for someone who actually might- Lea put her arm up against the car window, and rested her muzzle on her palm, trying at least to hide a little of her obvious blushing. Sickle had a rearveiw mirror, which he could probably see what was going on and would get annoyed by it. Right now wasn't the time for people to be flirting....
".....Crap." Lea thought, looking in annoyence at the sky. She still coudln't stop thinking about it.

Bullet wasn't the only one who had noticed Lea looking at Bullet. Since Sparky was in between the two, she had noticed it as well. Also, she had also noticed what Bullet hadn't--that Lea was in fact blushing. She stared at the two wolves for a moment, before letting out a bit of a chuckle at the though, then smiling. She was glad that her brother had found someone that liked him for who he was, even if he didn't like himself. And also, she hoped that he would do her best to make sure he stayed at his side--instead of pushing her away.
Bullet opened her eyes once again and glanced over towards Lea for a moment. He let out a sigh afterwards and looked away once again. Trying to figure out a few things. He knew in fact that he did care for Lea--and quite dearly. She seemed to be the only person that could keep him sane. He couldn't kill anyone when she was around her--not that was a bad thing. It was actually a bit of a relief. Even if he did kill people at times, it didn't mean that he enjoyed it--not like his other half did. But at that thought, he sighed again. Having Lea around had one small problem--and that was protecting her from Moonshot. Moonshot did not like her being around, and thus, he'd do anything in his power to get rid of her...no matter how dirty or brutal his plans or action in doing so was.

Lea took her hand from her face, and scratched the side of her head slightly. Once again her looks were being returned by Bullet, and she wasn't really sure how to respond....especially when there was someone else right between them. Before when she had cared for a person, usually the only one between them was Slash, who she could usually fend off with a swift kick in the face or something like that....but this was different.
For a moment she looked downward at the passenger seat, contemplating whether to look back or not. As she slowly began to inch her head to the side, she heard Sparky chuckle, to which she replied with shifting her head to the side once again, ears down in embaracment, blushing in what may have been precieved as a comedic manner.
With a scratch of her nose, Lea looked up at Sickle and decided to make some kind of smalltalk. "So...uh, where are we heading to anyway?"

"We are heading to Super's. He was able to make a house here in Station Square so he wouldn't have to live alone out in the country anymore. He left for the country again but came back only recently. If we're lucky, I think it'll still be safe to go. If G.U.N. hasn't found it's location, that is." While Sickle had the utmost trust in Super's hiding abilities, you never know when the government would get so paranoid it would start screening every house in the main city and it's suburbs.
(G.U.N?)

Sparky thought about it for the moment. She had seen Super's house or twice--at least the one in the county. She remembered that one. She also thought she seen the once or twice. Thinking about Super made her sigh for a moment, but she shook her head again. She didn't want to worry to much--it wasn't something she normally did--besides, Moonshock would start to nag her about it. Sparky glanced between Lea and Bullet, trying to figure out what to say at the moment--but nothing was coming. She scratched her ear a bit and blinked. She wanted to say something to ease the silence that was forming in the car, but she couldn't think of anything at the point.
Bullet seemed to grumble a bit a the mention of Super. Even if the green hedgehog was helping him, it didn't make him dislike him any less. Super was the one who was in love with his sister, and he didn't trust him because of that. But at the same time--he didn't wish to cause any harm to his sister, or cause her any trouble. So he mainly just grumbled--unlike Moonshot, who attempted to harm Sparky or anyone else who got in the way when he had the chance.

((Gah! I'm Sorry I'm sorry I'm sorry! I've been out of it for a long time. >___>; ))
Hands behind his back, Dunnel walked very casually towards the buildings, a squad of footsoldiers followed to his side. The more inexperienced ops were running about frantically, securing this and checking out that.... Everyone else seemed to know that they would be long gone....but more than likley they'd leave a few left to lie for them. A couple choice few who could either use a sly tounge, or hold it until it bled.
The hum of jetpacks and feet from down bellow could be heard clearly for probably a half a mile. People were starting to poor out of buildings, thinking that it was a matter of their own saftey... But it wasn't like it mattered. The less civilian inturruption the better.
Once to the door, Dunnel simply knocked on the door. No answer. With a smile he turned to two of his men and called them forward. Both at a time, the two soldiers kicked the door, which slammed down onto the floor. To his slight shock, Dunnel saw a green figure on a couch. According to what he'd been able to hack from the two idiots earlier, he was responsible in aiding Project Sickle in his escape.
Finally, as foot soldiers began to huddle around him, guns aimed, Dunnel put his hands behind his back and smirked. "So, am I under the impression that your little furry friends left only you to man the fort?"

"Can't you see I'm watching TV?" Super yelled out, waving his hand dramatically, where a piece of luke warm pizza crust was still held unto. There was a moment of silence and the show cut to a commerical break. "Ah, okay, now we can talk." Super stood up and walked around the couch, then leaned against it on the otherside, facing Dunnel. As he stood there, he smirked at Dunnel. "Hey, I remember you from my days back at G.U.N. You are the only man I know who has had more shoes then wives." He pointed to the officer next to him, "Back then, he was remarried, like, what, five times? Six? So much for love, eh? Ah, forget it. G.U.N. was a nasty place, but I'm sure your condescending, rude, power-hungry Commander Brass made the place much more efficent. And illigal, might I add. While were on the subject of G.U.N., do you remember my placement in the military? The top special agent, I was ranked higher then you. And I'm, like, what, in my twenties? How old are you, Duncecap? That's your name, right? It's been so long, y'know."

((BUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUURN XD ))
Dunnel gave a flinch of rage as the green hedgehog talked about his personall affars. He was going to let it off with a mere smirk, but then he heard him talk about his commander!! But while he was able to hold off his rage outwardly, his constant twitching and flinching betrayed every amount of his hatred.
"Ah....just like a dirty animal to ravenously attack one's weaknesses... But then...again, sticks and stones am I right? Besides...." Dunnel reached into his pocket, and held out pictures of all their friends and threw them onto a nearby table. "Why fret about things in the past, when all your weaknesses are of flesh and blood. Especially...a certain yellow wolf." He reached into his pocket and took out a picture of Sparky and inspcted it. "Poor little thing...with that gastly other half making her do things she doesnt want to do...things she could be tried, convicted, and punished for......" He turned his head to the hedgehog, with a sadistic smile. "Severley punished for."

"Well, if the Government could ever get it's act together and mobalize, you may of gotten all that your threatening in this town already. Thing is, All you've got is me, someone who doesn't break laws, who has only helped out the betterment of society and the well-being of others. But hey, as long as we are sharing our photography..." He pulled out his wallet and shifted through the things in there, before putting it away and checking the other pocket. "Swear I put it in my wallet." He said a moment before producing some photos. "Let's see here... Oh, here's a fancy one I took of you and one of your buddies at a street corner. Whose that tramp your talking to, leaning into the car. She doesn't exactly look like your wife." He said, throwing it on the floor.
It was certainly a strange thing for the hedgehog to look so prepared to burn the hell out of Dunnel, but in actuality, Super had a couple of his new camera's posted throughout the city and near G.U.N. bases. He kept many of the pictures at home, but there were many kept in Sickle's bedroom, just in case the wolf was caught off-guard. While producing his own pictures, he looked over the ones Dunnel had presented. Not one of them was near his house nor was Sickle ever near them. He only caught one picture of Kairi and Sparky at the mall and the rest were targeting merely the hedgehog and Sparky. "Wow, I love this one Dunnel. Now, I'm not sure, but when I took this picture of your drinking buddy Colonel Hubert passing cash to a known terrorist, I had to think that maybe the protection you guys give isn't so good. It's like a country committing suicide, really." He flipped the photo on the floor.
Pulling out two more photos of people Super knew Dunnel was friends with and one last one he pulled out of his vest pocket, the Hedgehog through the other two down and stopped on this one. "Now, This one is a special favorite. I have one here, at home, and a couple of pizza joints have graciously had this picture mounted on their wall. Many people love to think it's doctored, but sense your copter-buddy yelled out about it, I have to show it. You see, I know why your here. It's for Project Sickle. Well, the truth is, I never really met the guy until today. It looks like your constant watch over me should of shown that, but obviously, you don't know where I live. If you wanted to make me fear you guys, you would show closeups on my house, maybe a few pictures of me and the Project, but as it looks... nope." Super laid his head back on air a moment. "But you see, this picture... it's great, really. Old, too. Wanna know how old? Over six years old. That's back when I worked under Olin as Commander. I believe you were trying to become a lobbyist back then, but I digress." Super flashed the picture. "Now, you see, this looks like a picture of Me, Brass, and Project: Sickle, and Olin in the same room. Now, whats great about this one is Brass's expression as Olin tells him to shut the project down, claiming that the creature before us is a sin against God and humanity. I remember the day well. Now, I'm only there because I was talking to Olin prior and the issue was reported. But what is great about this one is that the genetic experimentation is illegal and Brass still did it, Brass still does it - Don't think I don't know of your other Projects you've got going - and the obviousness of it all. Oh, and that Brass looks like an idiot. Priceless. Heh." Super through it on the floor. He added. "The image is taken by a security camera. Brass was never one for common sense."

((I've said it once and I'll say it again, you beat my a** at G.U.N. related stuff))
Dunnel was cornered. Hell or high water, even if the bloody roof had caved on them, he was cornered.
"Ah...so I see..." Was all that Dunnel could say as the hedgehog spoke intricatley, taking every possible loose end and untied connection and linking them all together. "But now you realise that is my exact reason for coming here today.... Corruption, scandal, sins against God as you called them.... I've come to lay these all to waste. Starting with your "aquantence." He and the other projects represent the horrible turn that our government has taken...relying on filly, desease ridden animals to handle the mistakes made by men... Animals need to be harness...broken....much like my student, Mrs. Lea..." Dunnel shifted the pictures to one he had taken of Lea as she had been trying to hurry everyone inside. "Ah...such a good girl.....one of my best students.... Though there was that unseemly side effect... Ah well, what's done is done." Dunnel snapped his fingers and the soldiers began to come in with guns drawn, though they stayed out of striking distance to keep from instigating an attack.
"And...about those "payoffs" as you called them.... We like to think of them as....governmental insurance. They get their money, they stay away from us.... I think I'd call that an equal trade.... Besides, who do you think our funding comes from? The presidant or some other blitharing idiot in a big desk?" He began to laugh sinically, and then turned once more with a smile. "Though I do agree with you about Bass' common sense.... to pick animals instead of humans or robots is just plain stupid."

"Don't give me that bull. Chan Kin, the Chinese underworld overlord that is that picture, spoke differently about that when I had his throat at the end of my sword." He smirked. "It's amazing how weak the soul can get when you think you are gonna die. It's good thing it leaves the body when you die, at least then Mr. Kim had one shred of dignity left." Super stepped on the picture then, as if rubbing the scum off his foot.
He turned to look back at Dunnel and his men. "Oh, and last I checked, Brass has sense ended all trust against animals. Seems that way because he has made no motion towards protecting the ones across the sea which are being massacred daily by roving bands of vigilantes." He smirked, "Guardian Unit of Nations, my a**." He stopped leaning against the coach and stood in front of Dunnel now. "Well, I'm actually not too big on speaking with scum or racists, so you can't imagine how tired I am of speaking to you. So I leave you with two choices. Let me leave through the door right there and let me go about the rest of my day as Station Square residents return after yesterday, or we do this the hard way. And let me tell you now - you lose less personal and robots the other way, and the result stays the same."

"Hmph....as cocky as you are clueless...." Dunnel looked as if he was going to have the men attack, but merley strolled toward the open door. "Very well. I'll let you go on your way." As Dunnel kept walking casually, the soldiers stayed, but then slowly began to back towards the door.
Far from earshot, or so he could think the bloody animals could hear, Dunnel put a communicator to his lips and simly stated, "Fire." Suddenly a jet de-cloaked from out of the sky, and unloaded on the place that was once Sickle's home. Everything they had, apart fomr atomic warheads, was raining a flaming death on top of Super's head.
"Ah, I'm so glad we ripped of that d*** wolf's cloaker. It's so useful." Dunnel said with a contented grin, fully aware he had probably just killed a large heap of his boys. But it wasn't a big deal, they were all newbies anyway.

Sickle spun the last corner and floored the last bit towards an alleyway. As he spun, something hit the roof of his car and he just kept jetting until they finally hit the spot and Sickle slowed the taxi way down and opened the door, but stayed in the car. "Alright, we are a block away from Super's place. There is a path kids use that is completely covered from outside sight from this point. They use it to cut through the neighborhood, but is mostly used by gang members who run from the cops. They don't know about us knowing about it, so grab all that you can and move a long it. Uhh.... Kairi, can you take the lead and check everything. Just grab something light that doesn't make noise Lea, can you check on your brother? Bullet, can you help us carry the heavier things, and help your sister a bit. Me and Super will grab the heaviest stuff if Slash isn't awake. I don't think he will be, the stuff I used on him should put him out until tomorrow. I'll lift him, don't worry." He got out of the car and looked at Super, who was standing on top of the roof of the taxi.
"Did you notice me wave in the rearview mirror?" He smirked. Sickle just shook his head and tapped his nose. Super hopped off and stood near the back of the car, awaiting Sickle to pop the trunk of the taxi. When he did, he waved towards the first ones to notice he was suddenly with them.
