SHORT CHAPTER I KNOW. BUT IT MAKES SENSE AS NEXT CHAPTER WILL BE ABOUT THE VAULT HUNTERS GETTING TO CAPTAIN FLYNT
RE-EDIT
"You guys know the rest after that. Like I said not much to tell." Raven finished explaining her life story to the others. "Sorry what happened to your Claptrap friend." Said Maya in a comforting tone. "It was hard to deal with. He was there in my life for so long and suddenly... he was gone. For the longest time I had no idea why he suddenly died. But thanks to the Claptrap we met, now I know it was because of Handsome Jack." Clenching her gloved hand into a fist and speaking through clenched teeth. "He'll pay for what he did to my best friend."
For next twenty minutes the Vault Hunters talked about more lighter subjects till deciding to call it a night. They're going to need for tomorrow. Axton and Salvador carried the still passed out Krieg over to a house with Zero following behind. "God he's heavier then he looks." Axton said in a strain voice.
The three women entered into a different house nearby. Closing the door behind them and walking into the living room. Gaige says, "Not really comfortable of staying the night in a former residence's home after they were killed by bandits." Turning to face the red head. "Same here, but we have no choice. We'll freeze to death if we sleep outside. Plus it's only for tonight, we'll be leaving in the morning to get to this Sanctuary." Explained the bird named woman.
This seemed to put the mechromancer's mind at ease. Some exploring of the house later, the trio found the bedrooms. The main bedroom has one bed while the room they can guess is the guestroom has two. Since they are almost around the same age. Raven and Gaige would share the guestroom and Maya can have the main bedroom to herself.
Once inside the room, Raven puts her helmet and gun on a dresser and starts to take off the Lance-man armor. Each piece fell to the floor with a loud thud sound. With the armor protecting her shoulders, torso, and forearms now removed. The nineteen year old's female figure can be seen more easily. While the armor is fashioned to fit on a woman. It's designed to be gender neutral, so one really can't tell that Raven is a woman underneath all the armor.
Raven's body matured nicely over the years. A nice slender form with curves in the right places and a breast size similar to Maya's. What she wears underneath the armor is a form fitting, long sleeved grey shirt. "Bet it feels nice to be out of that armor, huh?"
Glancing over her shoulder to look at Gaige. The red head took off her sleeveless dark grey hoodie, goggles, shoes, and the red skirt. Revealing the white and black striped leggings were actually pantyhose that went up to her waist and the red top underneath the hoodie is a tube-top. She even had her red hair down. "A little, but I got used to wearing it almost all the time."
She then removed the plating covering her forelegs and knees and took off the boots. Raven then took the orbs of Ares and Athena off her belt and puts them underneath the pillow. Just in case she needs to use them if someone would to sneak into the room. Next she takes off the purple military trousers and throws them on the pieces of armor. 'Hope Sanctuary has some night clothes I can use.'
Pulling the covers down, climbing onto the bed, and pulling the covers over herself. The young woman stares straight up at the ceiling, rays of moonlight coming through the window. "Goodnight Gaige." Said Raven. "Goodnight Rave." Said Gaige, getting comfy on the bed before closing her eyes.
For the next several minutes Raven just looked up at the ceiling. Night like this she and Claptrap would stay up late into the night and reading comic books or listening to any late night Echo shows. Those were happy times and now serve as happy memories. "Claptrap, my old friend. I'll avenge you and make Jack pay. I promise."
