Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Dark Angel characters. Iris is mine.
Hey all! Sorry it took me so long to update. I've been very busy lately,
and swamped with homework and stuff. I have to read eight books,
literature. It sucks, trust me. Anyway, I did manage to find some time to
read some of your stories.
To all of you who read and review my stories, thanks! I mean that.
Well, as always, read, enjoy and review!

"Jess! What are you doing?" Vic asked
Jess was startled by Vic sudden appearance and quickly stood up.
"Hey, what happened to you?" He asked
"Zack held me at some warehouse, tried to get info out of me about Iris." Jess replied
"You didn't."
"Of course not! You actually thought I 'd break?"
"Ehm, hello? What's this about and can you guys please stop talking about me like I'm not even n the room?"
MAX'S PLACE
Max, Alec and Zack were sitting at the table, Zack had just filled them in about what happened.
"So you think not even Jess could help us?" Max asked
"No, not in the worst case scenario no. He said she'd tried to kill him once."
"So now what?" Alec asked "We just sit here and wait to see if the brainwashing process worked or not."
"I don't know, I guess we have to. Either that or you have to leave town, and I know you don't wanna do that."
"Well that's not good enough!"
"Alec, relax! Just chill, we need to think this through. We have to be careful. Iris is out there again."
"Look, wait what? She's back? Never mind that. Jess said Vic would get some equipment, I think I know where he'd get it. I'll go there and check, you guys stay here and lay low. If Vic and Iris have found Jess already, they'll probably be coming after you next."
"Hey, be careful!" Max and Alec said in unison.
"Jeez, you guys really are made for each other, don't go anywhere till I call, okay." Zack walked out the door.
IRIS'S PLACE
Jess walked over to Vic, disregarding what Iris just said. He grabbed Vic by the arm and pulled him into another room.
"So, did you get it?" Jess asked
"Yeah, I stashed it in a room across the hall. What just happened?"
"Nothing, okay."
Vic started to chuckle "You know what he asked? That guy, who sold me the stuff, he asked me if I wanted to work for him. Said he could use someone like me." He chuckled again
"What? What does that have to do with anything?"
"Well nothing really, just trying to lighten up the mood."
"Whatever, just go get the stuff, we have to do this as soon as possible, preferably right now."
Iris barged in "What are you guys doing?"
"Nothing, just guy talk" Vic replied as he walked passed her.
WAREHOUSE, THE FAT MAN'S WORK PLACE
Zack walked into the building, he knew exactly where to go, he's been there before. Around the corner were three guys sitting at a table playing a card game. They turned around when they heard footsteps closing in on them. Zack stopped and looked at them.
"Hey."
One of the guys stood up to get a better look. "Ah, mister. ehm, Thompson was it? In need of more merchandise?"
"I need to see the fat man. Go fetch him for me." Zack ordered
"Yeah sure right away, sir" a second man stood up while saying that and started to laugh "You actually think you can order us around?"
The other man shoved him back in the chair. "Sorry about that, he's new, he doesn't know how we operate. I'll go get the boss for you." The man stepped away from the table and headed for a big door.
The new guy was about to get up when the third guy pulled him back down again. "What? Why are you guys pulling and shoving me around? If you two can't handle this guy I."
"Shut up! You don't wanna mess with this guy okay, trust me. If the circumstances were different I'd let you kick the crap out of the client who dares to order us around. But not thins guy, he can have you flying across the room before you can even bald your fist to punch him. This guy is special, we're not allowed to harm him, if we could. Boss's orders"
Zack looked over at them, hands in his pockets of his jacket.
"Yeah right, no one can do that!" The new guy looked at Zack "Wow, if I didn't know better I'd say he heard us."
"He did." The other guy replied.
The doors opened as the fat man and the first guy came walking in, the fat man looked over at Zack and smiled. "So here for business mister Thompson?"
"No, here for info actually." Zack stepped towards the fat man, the first guy reached for his gun. "No need for that, I have no intention to harm anyone, I just want some info."
The fat man nodded and waved his hand at the first guy to let the gun rest in its holster. "What kinda info are you looking for?"
"I need to know if you sold any 'illegal, heavy equipment' lately as in today or yesterday."
"You have to be more specific than that boy, everything I sell is illegal" the fat man replied.
"I mean, computer hardware, lasers that kinda thing."
"There was a guy, this morning. He was pretty arrogant but amusing. Ordered two boxes with that kinda equipment."
"Do you have an address?"
"No, sorry. He was sort of like you, very intimidating. Are you sure I can't persuade you to come and work for me?"
"No, but thanks for the offer, maybe next time." Zack turned around and headed for the exit.
ACORSS IRIS'S APPARTMENT
Vic was setting up the equipment, hooked all the things that needed electricity up. He grabbed a chair and strapped some rope and Velcro on it. He made sure everything was secure before getting Jess and Iris.
IRIS'S PLACE
"What was that?" Iris asked Jess
"Oh nothing, just guy talk like Vic said."
"No, I don't buy that."
A knock on the door, Jess turned around that was the sign, everything was set up across the hall.
"Okay we have something for you, but first, about what just happened before Vic walked in."
"It's okay, forget it." Iris said
"That's just it, I can't. Iris, you know I love you right? And you trust me right?"
"Yeah, what's going on?"
Jess took Iris by the hand, "come with me, relax, trust me." He led her into the room across the hall.
**************************************************************************** ************** So, what do you guys think? Did you like it? Do I still have the touch or not. If not, than help me out, pointers and advice for the story are totally welcome! I'll need 4 reviews! Oh and have any of you read the Dark Angel novel yet, before the dawn? I think it was pretty cool, what do you think? Let me know! Thanks! ( Ghosty girl
