Chapter 2 -Section I- Destination: Larry's Spaceship.
"Well now, we should get going, right?" Faye smiled at him as she sat down in the cockpit, getting the ship ready to launch. Larry smiled in return, sitting down next to her, watching her work her magic. "Yeah, we should. Let's go." With that, she pressed a few more buttons, before hitting ignition. After awhile of starting up, the ship launched off of the bay area, flying away from her last home, the luggage in the back of the ship. She looked over to him, still smiling. "Go ahead and put in the co-ordinates in." He looked at her for a moment, reaching over, hands over her lap, almost touching her legs. He pressed a few more buttons, before hitting the final button he looked up at her again, before sitting back. "Unless John moved it, it should be there. He always leaves a communication probe where it last was just in case." She tilted his head at her, smiling, winking softly. "Oh, so just you two men in there huh?" He laughed, shaking his head. "No, we have a crew there. It's much bigger than the small ship your 'buddies' have." She raised an eyebrow, looking into space, smiling. "Oh..so you're rich?" He laughed harder than before. "No, let's just say my skills are very good. Besides, we had quite a good amount of funding for the ship." She chuckled, closing her eyes, relaxing. "Oh, I see..Well, good to see that at least someone in this universe has some sense in them.." He chuckled at her, looking away to the other side. "They'll be glad to take you in. We don't have much room though..The only available place you can stay is another room in my quarters. I usually use it for studies, but you can use it now, if you want. Unless you want to sleep in the halls, that is." She smirked to herself, looking at the screen, seeing that they were already close. "Wow..that was fast, we're already almost there." She looked ahead of the ship, seeing the spaceship in front of them. It was almost twice as big as the old one she used to be in, and it was a dark purple. "Yeah, good thing John didn't move it. It's seriously a pain to try and contact him with that thing." She laughed, going into manual mode, she took the controls, shocked by the sudden contact. "Identify yourself, transport." He laughed, shaking his head once again, picking up the microphone. "It's me John, I have company with me. Faye Valentine. Do you know her?" She smiled at his teasing, slowing down the ship. "Oh, Larry. Faye Valentine? Are you serious? What business does she have with us?" He pointed the microphone to her mouth, wanting her to talk to him. "Well, let's just say I'm trying to move.." He smiled widely at her. "That convince you enough, John?" There was no response for a second or two. "Uhh, yeah, sure. We'll let you in. Dock 2. Nice to see you're still alive Larry." He pointed at which dock it was, seeing as that Faye was obviously lost. The dock opened just enough for them to slip through, before it closed again. Faye guided the transport up to the guide hook, it attatched successfully, she let go of the controls, relaxing again, watching the ship move, looking at the rest of the ships also. "Well, looks like a nice place..." He smiled at her, nodding. "Yeah, for a space ship. I really miss my home though." She blinked at him, a confused look on her face once again. "...Where's your home?" He remained silent, his eyes grew dark and emotionless for a moment. She shunned herself in her thoughts, looking down.
Chapter 2 -Section II- Yet more introductions.
"Welcome back, Larry." John said, wearing a grey uniform, with a few badges on it's left side. One, more noticable than the other, was a gold cross, with a black and white ribbon. Faye questionably looked at the medals, before she looked up to his face. He had a scar over his left cheek, brown eyes, dark black, buzzed hair, identical to Larry's. He greeted Larry with a handshake, and bowed his head slightly to Faye. "Nice to finally see you in person, Faye Valentine." She blinked at Larry, before turning and nodding her head back halfway. "Am I some sort of legend around here or something?" Larry and John both laughed. "No, we just know who you are, that's all." Larry said as he once again scratched the back of his head. "Larry, you're probably ready to relax, but we need to get going. I just got a call in on another mission for you. Get what you need in your room, then come up to the mission center and a few 'friends' and I will brief you on it. Oh yeah, and make sure you bring some stealth equipment with you." Larry looked a bit confused, but he nodded. He watched John closely as he went up some stairs, up to an enclosed room. As soon as John disappeared into the room, he grabbed Faye's things, then he motioned for Faye to follow him as he started walking through another doorway. He nodded to some of the people that passed him, he looked to see that Faye was following close behind. Shortly after that, he stepped into a room that had the tag "Larry Johnson" on the right side of the door. He put the things next to the door, seeing Faye walk in, he smiled at her expression. "Wow..this is where you live?" Faye asked, looking all around, seeming as if she was already lost. "Yeah, as I said, bigger ship." He said as he chuckled, walking over to a desk. "You're room is right there." He pointed to a doorway as he began to dig out a few cases of ammo and silencers. Faye quickly went into it, then came back out, a bewildered look on her face. "Wow..it's twice as big as the room up in the other ship.." She said, looking at him curiously. He shook his head, laughing at how she was still amazed. He attatched the silencers to the two pistols in his belt, then pulling out two more, larger pistols. He slipped them into his pants as he loaded both of them, and set a few extra clips near them. He got back up, grabbing a briefcase, obviously for the papers of the mission. He began to walk back out, but he stopped, turning to her, leaning on the doorway. "The kitchen and everything else is yours too. If you decide to check out my pistol collection, just be careful, okay?" He said, smirking a little. "Oh yeah..sure," Faye said, she walked up to him, placing a kiss on his cheek, "Heh, for good luck. And I promise I'll be careful." He nodded before he walked out, touching where she had kissed him, before he walked quickly to the mission brief center.
Chapter 2 -Section III- Mission brief.
Larry nodded to the men as he entered, wearing a long black trenchcoat as he walked past them, going to the far side of the table. "Gentlemen..May we get started?" John said as he stood, pushing a few buttons near him. "Larry, this is a stealth, one man mission. You are to enter the headquarters of Jaqueline Fergus, and capture her. Be warned, there are alarms able to be triggered if someone sees you or hears something suspicious. If that happens, the base will be totally locked up, which will give you a very, very hard time to get through." John went on, "The guards are packing Desert Eagle .50 cals, along with a few sub-machine guns. Not to mention grenades, but once you get inside they pretty much won't use them, unless you get to meet a rogue guard." He smirked, trying to break the seriousness with a bit of comedy. "But that won't happen sirs," A man stood, straightening out his tie, "Each guard is entitled to protect the VIPs installed in this base, which means they can't make much destruction. Be warned, Larry, they will only take sure shots. If you hear a bang, it's probably too late to move." Larry nodded, thanking him for the advice. "Allright then. The place is like a fortress outside, once you get in though, it should be easy as pie, unless you trigger an alarm." John said, looking at him. "Your mission, therefore, is to try and apprehend Jaqueline Fergus, a woman of many talents. If you catch her and she is alive, we will be awarded $60,000. 35 thousand of that will go to you." Larry's eyes went wide with the announcement of how much money they were getting for it. "And what if she is killed?" He asked, standing up. "$30,000. Only 10 thousand will go to you." John said, nodding a bit. Larry nodded back, looking around the table at the faces of the men. "What are you planning to do with her, friends?" Larry said, a bit curious. "Out of all the men in here, I'm suprised you asked that. Few of us know what will happen to her. This will be strictly confidential. You are just the man to capture here, that's all. We'll do the rest." A man said, obviously irritated that he asked that. Larry backed off, hands up. "Relax, I'm sorry. Was just trying to see what would happen." Larry said, rubbing one of his arms. "Okay, are you ready Larry?" John said, looking at him still. Larry nodded, remaining silent. John continued, "Allright then. Report to dock 8 with me. A silent ship will deploy you to the starting point. I'll brief you on the map when we get on it. Allright?" Larry nodded again, beginning to walk back to the door. John opened the door and walked out, before turning and waiting for Larry. "Gentlemen, I'll be sure to be careful on this mission. Don't worry, you won't be disappointed." Larry said. The men began to relax a bit as he said that, and relaxed even more as he left, seeming as though he wasn't even troubled at the toughness at this mission. "John, what's the success ratio for this mission?" John turned his head, looking at him, smiling. "Almost 25 percent. Though I'm sure that's enough for you, my friend." John said, the smile turning to a smirk as they entered the dock area.
