Meeting up with Mel.

[Brandon Napier]

Bam was giggling until she blew a hole in the roof, then he looked at her, cackled, and swerved around another SMILE van, though sure that Melissa would shoot them... He then glanced at the boy.

"Kid, calm down, we will not die..." Bam told him before adding, under his breath, "Hopefully..." he then giggled and shook his head. "Kiddin', I'm kiddin'. Have driven enough times to know how to not kill whoever's with me." He said almost seriously before pointing. "Oh look! SMILE!" He yelled, wondering whether Melissa would shoot the guy or not, but grinning anyway...

Maybe it wasn't a good idea to bring attention to them...?

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro sighs on seeing Meliisa shooting out the roof."I stole this so we can be incongnito...." Grinning, He told Bam sarcastically,"Sure, Im calm. After all, Melissa is shooting out the roof, we're swerving and ducking like a boxer, and all the while, I'm trying to make sure my poor leg doesnt get jostled.Im perfectly calm!"

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa kicked her legs and made a cowboy-esque noise. A 'yeehaw' of sorts, followed by a cough as the car bounced over a body. Of course, with SMILE everywhere, Melissa was having a hell of a time shooting at them. "Come on Kuro! Have some fun! Lean out of the window and slice some heads off!" She laughed, bouncing around in the seat. The hopes of the raid becoming a dream, now, as they began what seemed like a hit and run spree instead. Not that she was complaining, some raids could become strenuous. And driving around and shooting was so much more fun.

"How's your leg doing?" Melissa shouted, shooting a person in the ear as they sped past them. A spurt of blood showered out as the body fell, clutching at her ear. "I think I hit a citizen...Ehh, that's why we're rebels!" Melissa screamed as the clouds opened above them and began to spray the van with water. Rain was also making it's way through the hole Melissa was shooting through.

[Brandon Napier]

Bam laughed at Melissa and didn't notice as the van built up more and more speed. He then made a snap decision to turn the corner and did so. The van went around the corner on two wheels and only just managed to not roll while Bam giggled and snickered, thinking that neither of these two would ever trust Bam with another vehicle.

As the van landed back on all fours, Bam laughed madly and shifted slightly in his seat.

"I supposed I should'a told ya both t'hold on... Eh?" He asked, laughing as he did so and running over some random woman. Bam then looked at her in the rear-view mirror. "Was that a Citizen or a SMILE?" He asked, frowning in thought and running over another person as the van sped down the road.

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro looked down at his leg, frowning at both the wear and tear of it, and the random voilence.They wer fighting against SMILE, not ctitizens."Well, the stitching looks stressed. I better be careful."

(Should we find the raiding spot in next post?)

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa looked at Kuro, then Brandon. She shrugged her shoulders. "Sure. Bam! Stoppid! There's a building there we could get into!" She shrieked, grabbing Bam's shoulders from behind his seat. She tugged and pulled firmly as Bam spun and drove around. "Now Bamela, before I shoot thou in the crotch!" She cackled with laughter and leaned back, bouncing around in the seat. Melissa was going to get Bam another vehicle, and then race him. That would be hilarious..

Yeah.

Returning to look around, as she waited for Bam to stop, she looked to Kuro. "You just take it easy squirt."

[Brandon Napier]

Bam had began to break then crashed into the wall and attempted to open the door. He failed and so kicked the door open with both feet before jumping out and stepping away from the van before stretching his arms over his head and looking at the van.

"C'mon kids! We're gunna go have some fun!" He yelled at them, pulled his sun glasses on and glanced around with a large grin on his lips. He then looked at the van and wriggled while crossing his arms over his chest. "Which buildin'?" He asked, now bored and wanting to do something... Actually, he wanted to kill a couple of SMILE members and steal another van... He wanted to try and roll one...

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro rolled his eyes, and got out, pointing toward the building."Thatta way, sheriff." Grinning, he pulls out his mask, slipping it over his face."I'll go scout..." Not waiting for an answer, he goes off, walking into the dorway. Pulling out his Lazer Blade, he holds it in his hand, deativated, as he wonders around. Suddenly he hears someon stepping. Whirling around, he rushes foward, burying the Blade in the chest of the SMILE agent who was drawing his gun."Yaaaaaaaaaaaagh!!" Looking into the dying mans eyes, Kuro staggers backward, blood dripping off his mask,his hands shaking."I-I killed him......I've killed a fellow human being..."

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa rolled her eyes and slid out of the vehicle through the opening she had made in the roof. It was big enough for her, just about. So she only suffered minimal damage of a graze on her elbow. The blonde stretched and stood in the chilly weather, heading over towards the large building she had initially pointed out. It was a warehouse she'd been informed of previously.

Ruffling her hair, Melissa waited for Bam to pick the lock. After he'd broken into her home, she had no doubt of his capability to get into places people weren't supposed to be. Kicking her foot up and leaning her back against the wall, she hummed softly and glanced around, making sure no one was coming. In spite of knowing Kuro was around, keeping an eye out, she was just being doubly sure.

"Are you okay, Kuro?" Melissa called, unable to see the white haired teen she had befriended and come to think of as family. If anything happened to him she'd be there for him, and would hold herself responsible. He was her friend, as was Bam, but she was the one that had brought him into the more dangerous life of a rebel. Even with his life as it had been before hand.

Sighing as she waited for her two younger friends, she suddenly began to feel rather old. And felt as though she wasn't acting her age as she should have been. Deciding to take this raid a little more seriously, she scuffed her shoes lightly against the red brick wall.

[Brandon Napier]

Bam had run off to pick the lock when Melissa got out and took no notice of anyone else. Instead, he pulled his bandanna out of his pocket and put it on, the D making him look sad, and picked at the lock with a rusted nail that he'd found on the ground and he stood and booted the door in annoyance.

"Fuckin' thin' won't open..." He mumbled, tried the handle, then began searching his pockets for something else and pulled out a smaller version of the tool he'd used on Melissa's front door. Shrugged, Bam then crouched down and tried again.

A click sounded, Bam grinned, pushed the door open with an air of smugness and pulled the bandanna down.

"We're in, kids!" He yelled out as he went off in search of Kuro. He found the younger boy and put an arm around the kid's shoulders. "C'mon." He mumbled and made to drag the boy off in the direction of the door. Thinking that it would be better for the boy to not think too much...

[Kuro Okami]

Lifting his mask up and holding his deactivated Lazer Blade, blood around the hilt, loosely in his had, Kuro gazed wide-eyed at Bam as they walked."I-I killed 'im,Bam. Just stabbed him, just like like that. He didnt even have his gun out all the way, and I killed him. I-I acted on instinct...I could see the horror in his eyes...." Climbing into the backseat of the van, Kuro sat, staring at his hand."Killed him, just like that...."

[Melissa Clark]

Stood in the doorway, Melissa glanced inside. She didn't want to come out here for nothing, thinking Kuro was just backing out, she walked over to see him."What's up? Are we doing this or not?" She asked. Raids were a big thing for her. Having been the one without wearing any facial cover, she was often putting her life at stake, more so than other people. If a person working for SMILE saw her on a raid, then saw her again, she could have been in deep shit.

[Brandon Napier]

Bam looked at her and twitched his nose. He then nodded and jerked his head at Kuro.

"Someone hasn't murdered before." He sung, giggled softly and pushed his hair out of his eye before looking at Kuro. "It's kill or be killed, Kid..." He then said and hit Melissa on the arm softly to inform her that he was going to walk off. A moment later, he began to walk off and looked around trying to look almost innocent as a giant grin planted itself on his lips. He yanked the bandanna from his neck and shoved it into his pocket while whistling before drawing his ray gun and looking inside, holding the gun loosely in his hand. "Comin', Sweets?"

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro blinked."Kill..or be killed.....Is that so....?"He took off hs mask, still lying down, and handed it to Melissa."here you go. I, I dont need it...."

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa looked to Bam. "There in a sec!" She looked back to her friend, and sat near him. She held his mask in her hands. "If you don't want to come, that's fine. If you choose to come along, you don't need to kill." She stroked his head, and chose to leave his mask near him, then stepped out of the van, locking it tight. "If anyone comes in, defend yourself." She warned. "Oh, and remember, that guy you killed has probably killed a hundred more." Melissa reminded, jogging out to meet Bam. "Let's go."

[Brandon Napier]

Bam was watching from where he was stood and nodded at Melissa. He smirked softly.

"Ladies first." He grinned, glancing at the van when at Melissa and raising his eyebrows slightly while waiting for her to move. He then glanced inside and pushed his hair out of his eyes before shifting slightly so that he was a little bit further from the door and therefore had Melissa's back in case any SMILE operatives were thinking of sneaking up on them.

((Sorry, short. x.x))

[Kuro Okami]

Kuo glanced down at his mask, still marked with the man's blood, and then rembers a conversation with his father, when he was round 7.

"Dad, did you kill people whenever you had to patrol somewhere?" His father glanced down at him, snorting slightly."Yeah,son." Kuro cocks his head, curious. 'How did it feel,Dad?" Dad sighs, wiping his eyes."Its not herioc, son, not in the slightest, remember that." Kuro frowns, confused."But then, why do you do it?" Dad, getting down on one knee and hugging Kuro, murmers in his ear."Because son, someone has to help beat back darkness. When we took up a Lazer Blade and our Rayguns, my squad leader always said.'Now men, I know some of you are a bit qeuzy bout killin'. Let me tell you something. When some madman or greedy mutha decides to disrupt peace, someons has to rise up and punish them. When we decide to pick up our weapons and fight back,its not about killing, its not about glory, those are just side effects. Its about stopping somone from harming innocents and destroying peace and Liberty when they decide to fill their pockets. We excist so happiness can excist, so we can beat back the darkness that is greed, that is hate, that is just good ol' evil! This is not about fighting out of anger, this is not about revenge, this is justice! Now, men, are you with me!!!?' " Dad smiled at Kuro."He was one of the greatest men I ever met. Son, that was why I do it right there. I kill because others kill in anger or greed, to protect you and your mother. Remember son, when you ever pick up a weapon, make sure you do it to protect, cause thirs no going back. Protect your family and freinds, as your mother would say, your Namaka. Remember these words son, and you will never stray off the path of light."

Slipping on his mask,and grabbing his Lazer Blade, Kuro unlocks the doors, locking it and shuting it when he's out, and walks to Mel's side."Wait for me!"

[Melissa Clark]

Melissa smiled to see her friend and tussled his hair before looking at the open door. Mimicing a television show that had been running for thousands of years and still aired...Melissa brought out her weapon, and cried "Alon zee!" Before running head first into the dank, smelly, towering warehouse.

(Damn psp, shortening posts)

[Brandon Napier]

Bam saw Kuro and nodded at him before Melissa copied the television show and Bam grinned before looking at Kuro and following Melissa, his ray gun still drawn but not held up, more, held against his leg. He glanced around once inside and registered that there were places for SMILE to hide, but also areas that they weren't hiding so they could hide there.

"We expectin' trouble, or sum'p?" He asked, grinning at Melissa then looking at Kuro. He then paused, looked around, and waited for the younger of the two boys to go in front of him. "'Cause if so..." He looked to the door. "We may get our wish..." He continued, trying to see if there were any SMILE people there.. It appeared not, but anything could happen.

[Kuro Okami]

Kuro activated his Lazer Blade and pulled out his raygun, both held in ready positions as he followed Melissa, saying to Bam."If we find trouble, we'll give trouble!" He pauses at the body of the man he had stabbed."Forgive me..." Crossing himself,he continues following Melissa.
