Update:We got delayed going to Persephone, a little.....The shuttle is back along with 13 who is now a bot created by Wesley Lu Greham who is with XIII on High Charity and they seem to have gotten themselves in a bit of a pickle. Since they saved our butts from the Reavers looks like we'll have to help figure a plan to ward off any evils in their path.......Life goes on.......
Anyone is welcome to join thread!!

Location Galley:
*She sees Ertia push Jayne out of the way, as she makes her way to the table. Jayne grumbles a bit....she thinks to herself, He may not be great with words but, damn, he is a looker, ain't he just...she wonders if he ever notices her starring at him when he works out....She shakes her head as to snap herself out of it and says to Ertia*
Need help Erita?

*Pain rests his feet on the table while still waiting for the food to be cooked. He decides to take a drink and leans over to his left side so he can get to his flask in his right back pocket. He's having some slight trouble getting the flask out of his pocket and decides to lean over just a little bit more to see if it helps to get the flask free only to fall out of the chair and onto the galley floor. Pain gets up and looks at Ertia, Fly, and Jayne and says "What?"*

Nothing, Pain, nothing at all. You throw yourself on the floor often?
*after that the others can't help it and start laughing, too. Except for Shepherd Book, who only smiles indulgently.*
Thanks for the help, Fly. I was just gonna boil up some rice. We've got these reconstituted veggies that should stir-fry up nicely. We just need some kind of protien.
*bumps Jayne down the counter a little further, wondering how cautious she has to be to keep him from figuring out that she just likes touching him*
What's the word from the Captain? Any chance of a plan? Or do we just going in shooting and take our chances?

*as 13 requires no chemical energy to survive (or exist, as robots are objects) he is busy brooding in the cargo bay. He does not walk, as his programming permits him from walking on grates. His eyes are soulless, devoid of humanity. Yet inside of his computer mind, he feels regret, and hatred towards his creator. Such a person as 13 is not meant to walk the verse, but the cyborg cannot end his existence. COwardice, or simply desperation?*
I think a little chaos is in order.

*13 is lying on his bed with his eyes closed, wondering why they are closed. It is not necessary, as they are not organic, yet the lenses could become dusty..*
What am I..
*River stalks into the bunk barefooted, and sits on the floor wordlessly, eyes intent on 13. The cyborg ignores her, and attempts going to sleep before remembering that he cannot*
River: You are a person, 13. Not just fake flesh and metal. There is a person buried in the guilt and hate and jealousy, not a mindless construct.

This is some very good grub you cooked up Ertia.
*Jayne grunts in agreement as Pain helps himself to a second plateful and wonders to himself*
What the hell is taking JRC so long? If'n he doesn't get here soon Jayne an' me will eat up all the food and drink up all the booze.

*She hears Ertia's call for dinner. Starts to make her back to her bunk to see 13 and sees River coming from that very direction*
River: Fly, he is real, let him know he is real. He feels just doesn't remember how. Show him how.
*River walks off and Fly proceeds to her bunk and the bed she'd kept for him. She sees him lying there with his eyes closed. She kneels next to him and puts a hand on his head playing with his hair. She says to him softly*
13, I know you can hear me...I'm sorry what happened to you. I feel your flesh, I feel the blood running through your veins. You are warm not cold, real people are warm...
*She gets no response. She sits there for a moment and decides, dinner may not be a bad idea. She leaves her bunk giving one more look at him before she leaves and says*
13, I don't know how this is possible, because I've not known you for long,,,I feel a connection and, well, I love you 13...
*She turns, closes the door putting one hand on it and turns to make her way to dinner with a heavy heart. She sees everyone has pretty much started already. Says*
Hey,,,any word whats goin' on?
*Just as she says that Mal and Zoe walk in for dinner. She always tenses up when the captain is around and she felt the others saw it this time. She takes a plate and fills it, sits at the table next to Pain and says to Mal*

JRC finally walks in to the galley, interrupting Mal.
"Hey y'all, Doc's cleared me on the back inj....ohh, sorry Cap'n. Hey, grub!"
He helps himself to a plate, trying not to notice the look of irritation on the captain's face. Mal continues. "Book and Kaylee are in too. Best you guys keep cleaning your weapons, look's like there'll be trouble once we're planet-side. Doc also said he wants everybody innoc'ed before we land, including YOU Pain, not gonna be escaping the needle this time, dong ma?" As he heads towards the bridge, he turns to say, "Oh yea, and Inara's gonna be joining us once we're at Zenith. She being dropped off by one of her.....clients." For a second or two, Mal is completely lost in thought, then turns back towards the bridge. JRC notices the brief moment. "It ain't over between them two, is it?"

*Pain finishes up his second plate, gets up and puts it in the sink, takes a swig from his flask and heads off to his bunk to retrieve his weapons all at the while grumbling*
Why do I gotta get innoc'ed? I ain't never get sick. Why do I have ta get innoc'ed?
*Pain walks out of the galley and to his bunk, he opens the hatch and steps in. He goes to his bed where his AK w/ grenade launcher, SMGs, and bandolier of grenades for the grenade launcher are sitting on. He slings the bandolier on first, then the SMGs on each shoulder, and then he slings the AK over his back. Pain stops and thinks to himself "I wonder if I'm gonna need Sonja for this job?" a smile sreads over his face as he opens his weapons locker, kneels down and takes out a two foot long metal tube with a sling, fold out electronic sight, and push button trigger. He holds it up to the light and says "Ah Sonja my very favotite collapsable rocket launcher." He slings Sonja over a shoulder and pulls out a 2'x2'x2' foam lined duffel bag that contains six rockets and sets it down on the floor. Pain then closes the locker, grabs the bag and climbs out of his bunk, walks the short distance to the galley, stands in the galleys entrance and says to everyone still there:*
If'n y'all need me I'll be in the infirmary.
*Pain walks through the galley taking a cig out of the pack in his pocket and lighting it as he heads to the infirmary*

That's the last freakin' time that gorram doc's innocin' me.
*Pain makes his way to the galley and proceeds to the lil' alcove in the corner, sets down on the table the duffel bag of rockets along with the rocket launcher and the AK, takes his flask out of a back pocket and sits down on the couch trying not to grimace as he does so. He takes the cig out of his mouth and snuffs it out with one of his combat boot covered feet and takes a swig from his flask while still muttering*

JRC is preparing his mini-arsenal. Loads up his S&W .44 mag six-shooter with its new laser sighting with under-arm holster and a box of ammo in his vest. Under the other arm, his Glock 9mm with 10 extra clips. He looks at his scatter-gun. "Hmmm, no, instead of that, better this one." From his metal foot locker, he pulls out a sawed-off, double barreled shotgun, with its holster mounted between his shoulder blades. "For close encounters," he says. Also in his vest, a box of ammo for the shotgun, two smoke grenades, two flash grenades, and 10 extra clips for his pride and joy, an HK 51 machine gun. "I never did give you a name, darlin'. I wonder.......I know, no female name, just Killer." Straps it to his shoulder. Sheaths a hunting knife in the pocket on his chest, and a small machete in a pocket built into his pant leg. "Damn, glad Doc cleared me of that back thing. Feel 50 pounds heavier. Ohhh gorrram it, gotta go to the john."

Yes sir Cap'n.
*Pain sets down his duffel bag of rockets as him and Fly go to help 13 move across the cargo bay. As soon as they finish helping 13 Pain picks up his duffle bag and walks over to a crate and sits down on it to wait until Serentiy lands dirtside.*

Fly, Pain:Yes sir

Looks over to the others, Ertia, Jayne, JRC, Book, Kaylee, and Zoe and lastly the Captain. She closes her eyes holding her gun in her hand, takes a quick deep breath in and exhales.

You know how I said there'll be more times when I'll ask for a favor? *Fly nods* Well I'm gonna need you to carry this duffle bag of rockets for me. It doesn't weigh much and it has a strap so's that you can sling it over your shoulder. I'd appreciate it if you would cause I'm thinkin' I might be carrying a lil' too much *Fly gives Pain a kind of surprised look as he said that* and I'm gonna need my hands free. So do you think you can do that for me please?
*Fly nods, hands Pain her pistol as he hands her the duffle bag, which she slings over her shoulder, and takes back her pistol. Flay says to Pain*
You're gonna owe me big time after this.
*Pain nods as he unslings his AK and says*
I know. *smiles at Fly just as Mal says*
Alright everybody comin' with me an' Zoe get in position we're headin' out!

I sure hope we come out of this alive.

*About 200 meters from Serenity, Mal and company head for a small outcropping of rock. The Captain holds up his hand in a fist, and everyone stops.*
Over the wireless: "Wait one.......Inara, you here?" he calls in a quiet voice. Five seconds later, "Yes, Mal. There's no one here, you can talk regular for now. A group of about 30 to 40 men went down that way, about 45 minutes ago. Me and my pilot were not spotted." (She tells her pilot to leave in a low-orbit trajectory, to hopefully avoid being spotted). "Mal, these people were not of the friendly sort, plus they were heavily armed. About an hour before that, we spotted two gunships, both bigger than Serenity. What's going on?"

Stay out of sight and then stay inside with the others till we get back." Inara turns to the rest of the crew. "Hello Fly, Ertia, you still with this scoundrel?

WARNING: The following explicit scenes of gore and intense violence.If thats not your cuppa, then please go to the next post, and imagine that the fight ended with tea and dumplings*
*The three mercenaries draw their weapons, trying to subdue 13 through intimidation. 13 rolls his eyes, and his eye-pistol fires once, sending out a spray of gray matter and blood.*
Mercenary # 2: Oh, shit.
*13 rushes the remaining mercenaries, his vorpal blades, once again, going snicker-snack. They slide like, well, no simile can describe what happened. The blade retracted from the man's torso, letting the blood spray like a waterfall. Crumple.*
*The final mercenary's eyes are gleaming in fright as he finally begins shooting. 13's blades move like lightning, an illusion of steel. He quickly aims the left at the mercenary, and the blade shoots out of the bots arm, piercing through the terrified man's mouth, shattering teeth and shredding neck*
*13 is entirely drenched in crimson, the blades dripping. His arms and torso are shredded by bullets, and he wonders who's going to patch him up. As he thinks this, his metal/flesh legs buckle beneath him*
Damn, must've nicked a sensor..*he notices that he is leaking blood and coolant at an alarming rate.*

The attack had happened so suddenly, no one had time to react except to dive for cover. 13 had apparently sensed the mercs, coming around the outcropping, and attacked them before the others knew what was happening.
Mal is the first to react. "Inara, are you OK? Darlin', go to the ship now, I'll explain later." She been sprayed by some blood, and begins to shake. "Wha....who is this 13?" Mal says, "GO NOW! Fly, Pain, check on 13."

*He saw Pain move past Fly to take the point and started to join them, when a flash of movement off to the right caught Jack's eye. He saw a group of eight mercs tracking low through a dry creek bed, flanking the crew of Serenity*

The Grim Jack: Everybody, we have a group of eight huen dahns at one o'clock...I'm gonna try to slow 'em down with some surprise violence. Fly, Pain...I love you guys if anythin' happens...take care of my Mule.
*Using the cover of some scrub brush, Jack made his way to a bend in the creek bed about 20 yards in front of the pack of soldiers. Making the sign of the cross, he stood a meter beyond the bend, with his hands hovering above his Peacekeepers*
*Counting three beats, Jack pulled his pistols and sprung from around the bend. Engaged in a conversation with the man behind him, the mercenary on point didn't see Jack...nor did he have time to warn his comrades.*
*fire erupted from the ends of Jack's Peacekeepers, taking the first three soldiers to the ground. The fourth, fifth, and sixth soldiers turned to the creek's banks, thinking the fire was coming from the direction of the others. Sprinting toward the pack to close the distance between them, Jack continued his barrage of bullets.*
"Keep their attention a little longer...give the others time," thought Grim Jack.
*The first retaliatory shot came from number Seven and tore through Jack's left shoulder, rendering the arm useless. Without slowing, Jack fired his right pistol into the chest of Seven.*
*Face to face with number Eight, both Jack and the enemy merc raised their weapons to fire*
*Two shots rang out...both men fell*

"Sure thing Jack." said Pain as Jack ran off to deal with that threat. Pain shot a merc in the head as he finished that sentence too busy to see where Jack went. *Mal's voiced buzzed in Pain's ear*
Pain I've got a group of mercs at ten o'clock 400 yards out headed your way. There in a transport vehicle with an escort of dirt bikes each with two riders both of which are armed. I don't know what's in the transport but I reckon it can't be good. See what you can do about it. "Yes sir I'll see what I can do." Pain says to the Captn as he looks for some cover.
*Pain runs to some tall boulders for cover and motions for Fly to join him. She hunkers down on his right side behind the rocky cover as Pain puts down his AK and unslings the rocket launcher, extends it, flips open the sight and points it in the direction that Mal told him. Pain looks through the sight as it automatically zooms in on the oncoming threat. Pain smiles as he sees the a cloud of dust give way to a six-wheeled transport truck and the four dirt bikes, two on each side about 10 feet apart. Pain thinks to himself "Didn't your mama's tell you not to stay too close to something that big and can go boom." He smiles as the 'Target Locked' indicator flashes in front of his eyes, he presses down on the trigger button as a rocket with a high explosive warhead surges forth from his beloved rocket launcher and speeds towards the truck.*
"Sir we got something heading straight for...." the merc in the passenger seat didn't have time to finish what he was saying as the truck exploded in a bright orange fireball, the shrapnel and the shockwave of the blast upending those on the bikes either killing them or maiming them too much for them to retaliate against the sudden attack on them.
*Pain looked at the destruction happen through the rocket launchers sights and commed the captain. "Sir you don't have to worry about that threat now. It's taken care of." "Good work Pain" the Captn replies back. Pain is about to respond back when someone's voice chimes in. "We've got a man down! I repeat we've got a man down! Over by the dry creek bed. Jack's been hit!"

About twenty meters from Jack, JRC has stopped. "Jack, hang on!" He tosses one of his smoke grenades, waits for smoke, then takes off in his direction. He sees the carnage, then Jack clutching his stomach. The Mule arrives at the same time. "Good job Jack. Your Mule's here." He takes a large piece of gauze and takes Jack's remaining hand and places them on the wound. "Jack, you need to take yourself back to Serenity pronto. Ertia will try to meet you halfway.

Mal and Zoe are handling the mercs trying to advance on Serenity. Jayne has flanked them and has been laying down suppressing fire. JRC is moving towards Jayne when he hears it...... a 20mm cannon. They're using it to cut a swath to the ship and get a clear shot. "Gorram heavy artillery. Jack was right, that little sh*t. We owe him more than he'll ever know." JRC makes his way past the smaller firefight, about 100 meters past. He's emptied his Glock, used both smoke grenades, but still has his shotgun, flash grenades, S&W, and machine gun. "Time for a little target practice. Could be I still have a way to help Jack."

He unholsters his .44 mag. He advances 50 meters, then crouches behind a fallen tree. Suddenly, the air around him is full of bullets. About a stone's throw away, three men have seen him. "Whoa!" he cries. He pulls a flash grenade from the vest, waits a split-second for them to reload, then lets loose with the HK and heaves the grenade. A loud explosion, bright light, then silence, and the men are incapacitated, they're eardrums burst with the concussion.
He takes the brief pause to check in and report: "Cap'n I'm near the 20mm, about 50 meters from it. About your 2 o'clock. Gonna try to pick off some of those buggers, but I could use some help. And Cap, Jack's in the Mule. He's headed straight for those bastards. I know he ain't coming back."

JRC scopes the 20mm position, and then notices the forward spotting post. "Top of the hill, huh? That means I know exactly where you are." Using the laser sighting, he aims....BOOM! "Damn, I forgot the kick this thing has." He missed the target, but nonetheless, got their attention with all the rock shrapnel. They don't know where the shooting is coming from.

She sees them at the last moment, knowing death is certain..the men open fire as 13 dogdes, ducks, dips, dives and dodges into the way of the bullets, covering Fly with his flesh/metal body. A small, circular object is in his left hand. He hurls it, and pushes Fly away. The grenade goes off, hurling dust and guts into the air. The dust clears, and 13 is lying on the ground motionless.

She takes the knife out, wipes it on his shirt and puts the knife back, gets up and makes her way to Serentiy...upon entering the cargo bay she sees Kaylee, and Book*
Who and what is left? Did Jack, Pain and JRC make it back?
*Kaylee and Book look at each other, then at Fly and shake their heads "no"*

JRC receives Jack's message. "Copy that Jack, and....goodbye." He activates the small remote, looking for the Mule. "There you are. Now to send you back home." He presses the auto-pilot and home button simultaneously. "For Jack. Now to finish this, before it finishes me."

From position on Zoe's right, Ertia hears the call to meet the injured GrimJack and see him back to Serenity.
Ducking under Zoe's gunbarrel, she rolls down the hillside, and pushes to her feet, only to see Jack's mule headed the other way, into the combat zone.
"Stupid hwoon dahn! Always has to be the gorram hero!" Diving back onto her stomach, bullets whistle over her head. Crawling towards a small tree for cover, she sees it shatter with shrapnel just as she reaches it. "Go se!"
"ERTIA!" Zoe's voice rings in her ear, "Get back up the hill!"
Crawling, she heads back for the hill, only to see a line of mercs cut her off from Zoe and Captain as they advance.
A rolling tire that seems to have come from a blown-apart truck rolls in front of her nose. After a brief prayer, "Lord, thank you for Jayne, Pain and Rocket Launchers!" she flips her radio.
"Zoe, we got ten men coming up from this side. I got no cover and my laser pistols at half-charge- I can take three, maybe five if I don't miss! Need some direction here!"
Grabbing the rolling tire she props it in front of her for cover and aims up the hill, telling herself- "SQUEEZE~ Don't TUG. SQUEEZE- don't TUG!"

At Serenity, Book reports to Mal: "Captain, Pain and Fly are headed your way. However, we seem to have drawn some unwanted attention. We have about 20 hostiles coming our way, curiously, they're not firing at the ship, but one almost took Fly down." Mal responds, "I'm sending Jayne your way, and for crying out loud, don't shoot him!" He turns to Jayne, "Take your rifle, and back them up." Meanwhile, JRC had taken out about 5 of the spotting crew, till the mercs get a bead on him. The single-barrel 20mm erupts, spitting out small cannon shells, 3 every second, that reduce trees and rocks to dust. "Sh*t!, Cap'n, Fly, anybody, I'm pinned down!"
Everyone dies alone.

Ertia hears JRC's call for help and looks around, but all she can see is dust. "Can't see you, J! Where are ya?"
She squeezes a short blast from her laser pistol, praying that it's enough to take down her target. A pinpoint burn mark erupts on the target's back and he falls.
The man next to him turns and spatters the surroundings with bullets. Ertia's tire deflates and she's left with only the heavy metal rim.
"Oh this is a hell of a time for a flat!" She aims the laser pistol at his chest, praying she doesn't miss.

Everything within 15 feet of JRC seems to be exploding. Even the air is hot with cannon shells flying by, striking the foilage and rock another 20 feet away. He's holstered his S&W, and is trying to keep the mercs heads down with the HK, but they're too spread apart, and they're like sharks, smelling a kill, all trying to end him. The 20mm hits a tree, it flys into a thousand pieces, and one finds it mark. "AAHHHHH!!!" A large shard, about two feet long, strikes JRC in the left thigh, just above the knee, exiting out through the back of the leg. "F*ck, this is it! Zoe, Ertia, I'm hit. I'm at your 3 o'clock!" Just beyond the destroyed tree, he spots a shallow gulley, no more than 4 feet deep. After emptying a clip, he crawls into it. He wraps his belt around his upper thigh. With his bayonet, he cuts the shard down to about a foot long. He almost passes out from the pain. "I got some cover guys, but I'm not very mobile. Ertia, at your 12, top of the hill, you and Zoe direct your fire at their spotters. Get them off'a me! And where in the sphincter o'hell are Pain and Fly??"

*Pain fires a burst of auto fire from his AK at three of the mercs taking each down as he ducks behind a huge boulder and says to JRC*
You rang!
*JRC says to Pain while in pain*
Sure took your ass long enough and where the hell did you come from anyway?
*Pain says to JRC*
Sorry I would've been here sooner but there's sort of a nasty dust storm down back a ways.
*Pain peeks up from the boulder and fires another volley at some more mercs, ducking behind the boulder as bullets ricochet off the opposite side*
*Pain ejects an empty mag, slaps in a new one, gets up and fires again, striking a merc in the chest*
*Pain yells out to JRC as the sound of the 20mm cannon fires again*
So how are you doing as far as ammo if'n you don't mind my askin'?

*Rolling her tire rim along in front of her, Ertia manages to scrounge some extra cover from behind a boulder.*
"OH! Thank you, Lord!" The dead merc lying behind the boulder is holding more weapons and ammo than she can imagine. She tucks her discharged laser pistol into her shirt and shoulders a machine gun, tucking pistols and clips into her belt and down her boots.
Standing up, she unleashes a deadly storm into the remaining men climbing up the hill! And into the sky. And around the flatland. And through the advancing pair of hover-craft. And into the back-hatch panel of the High Charity.....
"WHHHHHEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAAAA! THAT'S RIGHT! I'M THE BITCH WITH THE GUN!!!!!"

"I've got two clips left for Killer here, still got the box of ammo for the double-barrel, but that wont do any good with the s.o.b.'s up there on the ridge. My Glock is gone, still got my Smith and Wesson, and I was given this by Jack." He shows Pain a Peacekeeper. "Got two rounds left." From behind them, they hear an M60 firing rounds towards the hill. "What in the samhill...??? It's Ertia!! She's armed hers....DUCK!" They both bury their faces in the dirt when a dozen rounds fly over their heads, then they hear Jayne's comment. For whatever reason, they both start to laugh uncontrollably. At the top of the hill, in a scene that will never be known to Serenity's crew, the mercenaries look at each other, wondering how anyone could laugh at a time like this.
About a minute later, tears rolling down their cheeks, JRC tells Pain, "Jack's up there somewhere, near that spotting base or the 20mm. Ain't heard anything for the last 20 minutes from him. I think he's gone."

Well I have about eight and a half mags left for the AK, still have the grenades for its grenade launcher, six mags left for each of my Desert Eagles, four full speedloaders for the snub-nosed S&W 327PC revolver in my right ankle holster, eight mags each for my silienced Mac-10s, and one rocket left for my rocket launcher.

Well Jack did kinda dress differently than what he usually wears to a gunfight and if he is dead then we don't have a choice other than to finish the job and grieve for him later. That's the way he would've wanted it.
*Pain unslings the rocket launcher, extends it, flips open the sight, turns to JRC and says*
So think either me or you can hit that cannon over there with this *nods to rocket launcher*?

*Crawling through the remains of the three mercs, Jack, pale as a ghost, focused on the object lying ten feet in front of him. He had some how found a way to dispatch the soldiers, but his Peacekeeper was empty...and his time was almost up.*
*Finally reaching the object, he used the rest of his strength to pull himself up to a standing position. Looking across to the oposite hill, Jack could see the 20mm firing barrage after barrage down on his friends.*
The Grim Jack : You boys sure are kickin' up a mighty powerful heat signature with that there boom stick.
*Jack looked down at the object he held. The shoulder mounted Heat Seeker stared back. Raising it to his shoulder, he activated the targeting mechanism. It only took a few seconds for the launcher to target the cannon. Smiling Jack pulled the trigger.*
*The raw force of the missile threw Jack to the ground, but he was able to look up in time to see the 20mm turn into a gorram fireball.*
The Grim Jack: Royal Flush, you ruttin bastards.
*Jack lit his last cigar off of the exhaust port of the spent heat seeker and placed it in his mouth.*
*Smiling around his cigar, his last thoughts were of his friends...and his life aboard Serenity.*

*As the mule comes to a stop she jumps on and says to Book, Kalyee and Zoe*
I gotta get back there and get these guys, keep me covered.
*She reaches Pain and JRC*
We gotta get out of here guys, Jack is done just over there. This machine is too big for me JRC, take us out of here. She helps load the box of ammo. Pain, what do you have left for rockets, looks like we'll need 'em.

'Chukk chukk'
The machine gun spends its last round just as Jack's final delivery makes it's appointed round at the canon.
Ertia drops the gun,ducks and rolls as shrapnel and manparts fly everywhere. Pulling out one of the pistols, she dives back to her boulder and surveys the situation.
There's dust and smoke everywhere, and the air is thick with the smell of sulphur and blood. "Dang! That was FUN!"
Quickly, she starts looking for more bodies that might have more wicked toys on them!

Yeah I saw that. Saved me the job of having to do it.

Another burst of automatic rounds tears through the surroundings, as Ertia purloins another gun. Fortunately, this time, she's pointing it at the bad guys as she runs backwards towards the gulch where she just make out the shape of the mule through the dust.
She drops down between Pain and Fly as her latest toy empties.

JRC is almost shocked when he sees that Fly made it through the small arms fire back at the ship. "Fly, hope you don't mind me saying, but you got quite a pair on you, and I don't mean girly parts neither. Jack's last wish was to keep his beloved Mule safe. Hope he don't come back and haunt you somehow." *He winks at her.* There's a loud BOOM where the 20mm was. "Damn, that was Jack!! He got those sorry bastards! C'mon, we gotta get back to the ship. Maybe those mercs are still near Serenity. We're gonna be flying a little heavy, tho. Fly, I don't think Jack is with us anymore, but we can look for his remains later. And Ertia, "almost" got shot by you, but nice work with the repeater anyway. Pain, keep that launcher loaded. We're coming in hot." At the same tme, he informs Mal and Zoe they're coming in to join the last firefight.

Upon returning to Serenity, Fly, Ertia, JRC, and Pain have found that Mal, Zoe and Jayne have eliminated the 20 or so mercs from the surrounding area. "Damn, I knew they were good, but...." JRC says with awe in his voice. They entered the cargo bay, and found 13 in a wheelchair. The Doc is already waiting for the injured, including JRC and his leg wound. "Let's go to the infirmary see what we can do about that splinter," Doc says. JRC can't believe what he just heard. "Did you say splinter, Doc? I beg to differ!!"

*Ertia stands in the cargo bay door staring out at the carnage. She can feel the weight of the guns and ammo she picked up dragging her down. Well, at least she didn't shoot one of their own this time... at least, she thinks she didn't. She has no idea what the crew of High Charity looks like.*
*Book's hand drops onto her shoulder, surprising her.* "That was some work out there today."
"It was go se, Shepherd." *Adrenalin saps from her body and she feels her body start to tremble.*
He just gives her a kindly smile and pats her back before walking away. Ertia straightens her shoulders and heads over to where Pain, Jayne and Fly are comparing war stories. Pulling out the spare guns and clips, she holds them out.
