Damon sat back from her computer. It had been a very successful day of
hacking and now with night coming she should be able to go see her handy
work. While On-Star had been upping its security, it still had so many
back doors that she could just walk in at any time. Ash sat on the couch
and flipped aimlessly through the channels, while Rose looked through a
book on leadership. Cain was in the kitchen with Danny making a pizza.
Damon heard her stomach yell at her for losing track of time and forgetting
the fact that she had not eaten since breakfast that morning.
"Pizza!" called Danny from the kitchen. Ash and Rose were gone but Damon sat and waited as she normally did when food appeared.
"Aren't you going to eat today, Firewall?" Danny asked as he walked over to her with his plate of pizza.
"Yeah, I will... just checking over the hack," she replied quickly and tried to look busy.
"Okay, just make sure you do," he said and went to the couch.
Damon checked again, all the patches had been made and would not be seen by even a trained eye. She smiled, "That is why I'm the best," she thought to herself. Quickly, she rose and went to get the last piece of pizza.

The raid went well and the patches helped a great deal. The spirals had no idea what hit them. Damon waited by her Jeep as the pack dealt with the last pack of Black Spiral Dancers. Ash was the first to walk back with Rose just behind him, rubbing his bare shoulders.
"Well, that was fun," Cain smiled as he dusted off his Armani suit and walked up to the Hum V. Ash just laughed and got into Lena. Danny walked the slowest and Damon saw why he was so slow, he was limping slightly. While he was trying to hide it, Damon was so tuned into his every move that she saw it right away.
"Danny, what happened?" she demanded as she rushed to his side. This of course drew the attention of the entire pack. Ash turned to his brother and gave him a look that made even Damon shudder, she quickly looked down. While Rose was the alpha of the pack, that position had been given to her by her love, Ashitaka Firefoot.
"Daniel, what happened back there?" he asked with a quiet wrath.
Danny looked him in the eye and answered, "I was caught off guard by a dancer, it got me in the ankle." He showed no fear while staring his brother in the eye, while the rest of the group would have flinched under the fiery stare.
"Why didn't you say anything?" Ash asked calmly.
"Cause there was to reason to," Danny replied in the same calm tone but with the slight southern lilt his voice held.
"We can talk about this back at the house," Rose interrupted firmly. Both of the boys nodded simultaneously and headed to their respective vehicles. Once in the Jeep, Damon looked at Danny closely. He was a little worse for wear but the wounds would heal, although the ankle might take a little longer than the rest of the dings and scratches.
"Are you sure you're going to be alright, Danny?" she asked in her timid voice that seemed to take over when ever she tried to talk to him.
He smiled, "Yeah, I'll be fine Damon. It's just a scratch anyways." She nodded and tried to focus on the road. The spirals had found a secluded area in the inner city that they had begun to take over. Rose and her Dumb Luck pack could really only be so lucky, and if they weren't careful their luck would be gone. Damon watched carefully as Danny rotated his ankle slowly. The ride was all to fast and they soon found themselves back at the house, with Lena already in a parking spot.
