Currently driving through the middle of a nameless desert after stealing a motorcycle with a sidecar from a rebel soldier, Marco, Fio, Tarma, and Eri were all unfortunate to have to share the same motorcycle for their trip back to their nearest HQ. Marco was driving, Fio was sitting behind him with her arms wrapped around him, Tarma was sitting on the sidecar, and Eri was sitting in front of him. Had there been at least one more bike, Tarma would had happily taken it. But instead he was feeling awkward for having his blonde female companion sitting right in the middle of his legs.

They remained silent for a little while until Marco spoke, "You know what this reminds me of?"

Eri asks, "What's that?"

"That one time we all had to share a Metal Slug to get out of that snow mountain."

Tarma rubs his temples under his shades, "Oh don't remind me... Metal Slugs are designed to only fit one person. How it managed to fit all four of us is beyond me."

Fio comments, "To be fair, that was the SV-002, which is slightly bigger than the SV-001."

"It was still uncomfortable as all hell. My hands were pinned down by all of you, and I had a torturous itch on my back! It was like playing Twister."

Eri says, "It didn't help that you had a full-blown hard-on..."

"Hey your ass was sitting right on my crotch! That's not a reaction I can just help!"

Eri looked away with an annoyed and blushy face.

Marco says, "At least we were warm. It was under -10 in that mountain."

Eri comments, "You certainly were. Having Fio's chest all over your face~"

Fio face turns light red due to the comment, and her eyes hide behind the reflection of the sun on her round glasses.

Marco stutters, "Not like there was-... there wasn't much I could do about that..." He keeps a serious face, but couldn't help but blush. "Besides, I could barely see because Fio had the best seat in the slug."

Tarma laughs, "It's alright, Marco. If you liked the view you got, you don't have to hide it."

"... Fine." He smirks, "At least I was warm!"

Tarma and Eri laugh, while Fio's face turns redder. With that said, they continue their ride to HQ.
