The big, ugly beast was right in her crosshair; she was going for the headshot. Itus was poised next to her, ready to strike, should the monster turn to attack them. Selene held her breath and fired. BOOM! The Bullymong's head popped like a balloon.

"Yes!" Selene exclaimed, that was the last one! 4 of these beasts were laid out in front of her.

Itus roared in approval as Selene ran out to collect whatever loot they may have dropped. Just then, she heard a growling coming from one of the tall Bullymong towers and without missing a beat, she chucked a grenade into the top where the entrance hole was. When it exploded she could hear the sound of an exploding body.

"Very nice!" Hammerlock said, he was watching the whole time. He made his way down to Selene and patted her shoulder, "We can continue with your training with the rifle later, it is getting late."

The two of them had been training all day but Selene finally felt confident enough with the sniper rifle that Hammerlock could see it in her eyes. Selene was ready for a break!

After dropping off her gun and changing into her black bell bottoms and a short black crop top, she darted off and fast traveled to Sanctuary.

Selene stepped out of the fast travel station and looked around a little, there was a bunch of people in the center of town. It looked like a party! There was a ClapTrap DJing and lots of people had glowy stuff attached to them or in their hands while they danced and raved around. Selene turned to see a pretty chill lookin chick a few feet from her, sitting and chatting off to the side on the side of a building. Selene went over to her. The chick had crazy long dreadlocks, a ton of piercings and dressed in some super baggy pants and a bra. She was sitting inside a big, glowing hula-hoop. The woman next to her was in a long black dress, that had a big diamond cut in the middle of it, exposing her belly button piercing. She also had very long brown hair and did seem to have any glowing items like the rest of the crowd. Selene reached them and asked, "Hey, sorry to interrupt but do you guys know whats going on here?"

The dreaded woman smiled and said, "Yeah, it's a party!"

The other woman smiled too and said, "Roland says its good to just try and have fun once and a while so this war doesn't get the best of us. So he has this ClapTrap throw a party in the middle of town every now and then."

Selene nodded, "Oh I see." She sat down in front of them, "I'm Selene!" she held out her hand.

"Trile!" said the dreadlady.

"Shadow!" said the black dressed, barefoot lady. Selene crossed her arms and they both shook her hands at once.

"Wanna go dance with us?" Trile asked.

"Sure!" Selene popped up, "I'd love to dance!"

The three stood up and moved a little closer to the giant crowd of people and Shadow handed Selene a pair of glow sticks. Selene weaved her fingers around it and began to dance, making streams of color everywhere she moved her hands. Trile giggled and started doing some badass crazy hooping dance! And Shadow moved her hips to the loud, heavy beat of the music. It seemed like the three of them were bonding somehow even though non of them exchanged anywords after that. They just lost themselves in the beat and felt each other's energy intertwine.

After about 20 minutes, Trile stopped hooping and Shadow stopped dancing suddenly; looking behind Selene wide eyed. Selene had just noticed their faces when she felt someone press up behind her, moving their hips the way she was.

"Don't stop," Mordecai whispered into her ear, pressing himself into her as she started to dance again. Trile and Shadow, still looking a little confused, started back up again, exchanging looks of disbelief.

Selene moved herself as best she could on Mordecai for a minute or so before turning around to see him. He pulled her into his hips and traced her sides with his hands in dance, the glow sticks in his own hands making a glowing green outline around her body. He was dressed in his boots, black cargos (tucked into his boots) with no shirt on and his dreads flowing free and his goggles on his forehead. He smirked slyly at her and wiggled his eye brows. Selene laughed and began copying his moves with his hands, creating a kind of helix shape around them with the glowsticks in the air.

The two of them twisted and slithered around each other for a good hour or so, getting hot and slightly aroused from being so close. The song currently playing stopped and the claptrap started yelling about something that got the crowd all riled up but Selene and Mordecai were not listening. He picked her up and she straddled his hips, planting her lips on his. Mordecai bit down a little on her lip and then disconnected. Selene was smiling brightly at him, looking into his dark eyes. She didn't want that night to ever end.

Selene followed Mordecai back to his tower at the Tundra Express Station (which they fast traveled to, duh…) after the party. The tower was in the top of a big mountain and together it had to of been a good 30-40 stories up. Morde lead Selene up to the tower and once he was in the door, sighed happily and stretched, turning on the light. Selene watched him as he stretched, his back was riddled with scars. Some were massive slashes and she also spotted a decent number of bullet wounds as well. His spine seemed to quiver as he arched his back over, undoing his boots. Selene took that chance to walk up and caress his back, rubbing it gently I a consoling way.

Mordecai let out a bit of a moan of relief. "Oh, god," he whispered, sitting down on a beat the hell up recliner nearby, "Don't stop, please." Selene climbed onto the back of the recliner behind him and continued to rub his back, putting her chin on his shoulder and kissing behind his jawbone and then nuzzling around in his dreadlocks some.

Mordecai leaned back after a few minutes, between her knees, resting his head on her tummy. "I missed you," he spoke softly, "like… it was fucking stupid… how much I actually missed you."

Selene smiled, "I completely understand that feeling." She wrapped her arms around him and kissed him again. Mordecai grabbed one of her arms and pulled her, guiding her where he wanted her, in his lap. Selene laid across his lap, her head cradled in his arm. He used his free hand to undo Selene's eyepatch and place it on the table next to him then smiled at her. He leaned down and kissed her forehead softly as she fell asleep in his arms.
