Sedative's POV:

I looked from Kenroku to Ghoul and back to Kenroku, I wasn't sure exactly what was going on. Kenroku had killed Korse, her most trusted employee, but that didn't mean she was fighting for our side. Did it?

"Well, kiddies that's what happens when you break your promises, " Kenroku smiled, "You see, Korse here, told us and the rest of the BL/ind corporation that he was here to end you killjoys, and he did put on a pretty good show of it, Didn't he? But in reality, after information from a source close to him, he was here to maybe negotiate with you and maybe help you win your battle against us, foolish for him to believe he could make such decisions. Better Living Industries doesn't make mistakes, those who don't fit our caliber get exterminated and that's what my army and I are her to do today, put an end to this foolish game you call a "rebellion"."

"Sounds like a pretty good plan, Kenroku, except you forgot to register the fact that every army of dracs you have send to exterminate us, end up exterminated themselves. We have the home field advantage, the desert is our home and we know things about it that you in your prim and proper Battery City know nothing about." I said, confidently.

She laughed and said, "Insubordinate Sedative, you are just another problem for me to solve. You and the rest of these killjoys you call your "family" are just silly excuses for an army. As we speak, my draculoids are battling your killjoys and killing mercilessly," she pulled a device out of her ear and continued, "I get all the battle updates through here. You're outnumbered at about 2,000 to a pathetic 500."

"You're obviously not very confident in your skill if you had to bring so many dracs," Ghoul snapped.

That was the line for Kenroku, I think. Her smiled turned into pure rage and she said, "Fun Ghoul, it's cute that you think you're anything more than a mistake. Think of all the innocent people, on both sides, that have died because of things you've done."

He looked down to his feet, the words hitting him like daggers.

"Don't listen to her, Ghoul she's just trying to get to you!"

"And how would your opinion be valid? You were designed for Party Poision, that must kill you Ghoul, the love of your life was designed to be with your best friend."

I watched as his eyes started to water, a tear threatening to fall with one more insult that Kenroku threw.

"Ghoul, you know I love you, I wouldn't even be here if it weren't for you. I am so thankful that I get to be with someone as kind, brilliant, funny, and attractive as you, you have to know that by now though,"

Kenroku looked at me as if to say Would you shut the fuck up already? With a mischevious look, Kenroku pulled her last trick from her sleeve and said, "Ghoul, what about murdering Mike? You think that was justice? It was murder and nothing else."

The final words hit something inside Ghoul, as tears spilled down his cheeks, he raised his gun, set the aim for Kenroku's chest and pulled the trigger, but not before a ray from her own gun hit him in the arm.

She screamed in agony and fell to the ground, "This isn't how it was supposed to happen! I am not supposed to die here!"

I ran to Ghoul to tend to his arm as he shouted, "Shut your trap, Kenroku, I only gave you a flesh wound."

Her anger turned to confusion, and she sat in silence holding her wound, as if to stop the pain.

I reached Ghoul and examined his injuries; his arm was bleeding like crazy. I ripped my sleeve off and took the cloth to wipe it down.

"I don't know what to do, Ghoul, if I use a tourniquet to stop the blood, and it's left on too long you could possibly lose the use of your arm, forever"

He grimaced and said, "Hopefully it won't come to that, come on we need to get back and help fight,"

I shook my head, and tied it tight around his upper bicep thinking to myself, he was in no condition to fight, but we really did need to get back and I wasn't going to fight with him in the condition that he was in.

He was losing consciousness with the amount of blood he was losing, even with the tourniquet, so I mustered up all the strength I had and helped Ghoul walk out, him putting half of his weight on me. Luckily, he wasn't that big of a guy.

Kenroku looking at us walk out, screamed, "Are you just going to fucking leave me here?"

"Oh I almost forgot, "I walked over to Kenroku and pulled the radio out of her ear, wiped it off and put it my own, updates on the battle would surely come in handy.

"You're going to pay, you know." She screamed.

"Cool story bro, tell it again," I hollered and I had a field day with the confusion on her face.

We made it out the door and looked around; so far the coast was clear. We hobbled down the street and I looked around the corner to see about 5 dracs running towards Extravagant Diversion, she shot two, but three kept towards her, I shot them down and she looked at me and gave an appreciative nod and I did the same back, there was no time for small talk.

Ghoul and I staggered across the street and hid in an alley, the headquarters was about a block away, but dracs littered every square inch of the street.

I saw myself desperately looking for a solution to this problem and, adrenaline coursing through my body, I picked up Ghoul and put him on my back, he was actually a pretty small guy, but for me a girl slightly smaller and significantly weaker than him it was a pretty heavy haul. I'd compare it to those moments where moms see their kids in danger and muster up the strength equal to that of a professional wrestler. I kept close to buildings and walked as fast as I possibly could back to our base.

A couple dracs threatened to stop me, but luckily other killjoys covered me on my path. I reached the base, walked in and dropped Ghoul on the first bed I saw. Dr. Death walked over and I explained what happened and that Kenroku was injured with a flesh wound and still in the warehouse. He nodded and told me to find either Party or Jet and tell them and he would help Ghoul.

I nodded and set out to find them, but not before the radio in my ear, muffled and blunt said, "Party Poison has been exterminated."
