ONE YEAR LATER:
Dash and Packie manages to bail out Gerald, being he's the only one left. Unsurprisingly, he too is sad to hear about Kate and offers his comfort, Packie just saying they need to be there for Maureen.
"Say, how's Lizzy?" Dash asked.
"Who? Oh Torris. I don't know, the women have a seperate prison." Gerry admitted. "But I'm sure she's fine, not her first time." he continued.
"I hope she's okay." Dash said, openning the door to the McReary house. But once they see Maureen, she's pretty down, saying someone stole her necklace while she was out for a walk.
Dash says she'll get it, and tracks the person down. Viewing it as a new mission for herself.
"Excuse me, are you the one that stole Maureen's necklace?" Dash asked a guy she saw smoking a cigar on a park bench.
"Oh, you mean that old Irish lady.. What's it to you Lucia?" The guy replied.
"It's McReary now, and that's my step mom, so give it back or I will have to hurt you" Dash threatened.
The guy laughed it off.
"Look beautiful.. Why don't you just get lost before I call my boys over an-"
Suddenly his sentence was cut short by Dash violently tackling him to the ground. One of her tattoos even being the McCreary gang sign, showing she truly is a made woman, and not just one of their hired guns.
"Ahh! You crazy bitch! I'm calling my boys-"
Dash cut his sentence short by pressing his face harder onto the ground.
"Make a sound and you die," Dash said, coldly. After Kate, her mama bear instincts became tenfold, or daughter instincts in this case.
"Okay... Look.. I don't have it. Some guy stole it" The nameless thug said eventually.
"What guy.. (holds his arm in a painful way) TELL ME WHAT GUY!" Dash ordered.
"Some European guy! I don't know who!" The thug cried out.
"Fine.." Dash said, releasing her hostage.
"Where did he go. Do you know where he went?" Dash sternly asked.
"I -I think so," The thug said, still in pain.
"Show me then.. And no bullshit, or I'll break both your legs" Dash ordered coldly.
SHORTLY AFTER:
"This is it, I think it is at least" The thug said, pointing at an old apartment in Bohan.
"It better be.. Come on, let's get in there" Dash aid, going inside
"I ain't going in there." the thug whined, only for Dash to literally push him forward, even drawing her pistol on him to make him go in. Sighing, the guy does.
Dash successfully broke into the apartment room by using a old lockpick she still had on her from back in the day.
It wasn't much to look at. Had an old pull out couch bed. An old tv, a small table and a chair next to the TV, a kitchen in the back with a small fridge and a sink, in a door between in lays a small bathroom. The room even has some playboy girl magazines around it. And all the while Liberty City Rock Radio played from a radio. It also has no windows, least none open, and the whole room had this odd grey/blue glow to it.
"Hm, this seems oddly familiar" Dash thought out loud.
"Can we just get this over with." the guy insisted. For once Dash actually agreed with him and started looking all over the place. "Watch the entrance." Dash ordered the unnmaed man who goes to do so.
Dash kept looking, but unknownst to her a shadowy figures sneaks over, stealth killing the nameless man with a combat knife, and than starts creeping over soundlessly.
"I got it! I found it!" Dash cried, pulling the necklace out from between the couch. But as she turned to the door, suddenly the figure punched her in the face, knocking her onto the ground.
Dash falls over, her vision blurring. And by the time she comes too she sees a familiar face holding a pistol at her.
"Don't move"
"N -Niko? Niko, it's me!" Dash cried, pulling off a ski mask she was using.
"Sorry for breaking in, if I known it was you I would of simply called you.. I need the necklace. It's Maureen's" Dash explained.
"Oh. Well. I was gonna give in to Roman to give to Mallory. I didn't know it was Maureen's" Niko admitted.
"I'm sure. It's okay" Dash said.
"It's okay.. Sorry about your friend." Niko said, giving her Maureen's necklace.
"He wasn't my friend.. Anyway, I need to return this." Dash said.
Sure enough Dash returns the necklace to return. Only to find out while she was gone Packie started a fight with another gang and got himself captured so she has to go rescue him. Niko tags along, saying it's been to long sense he's seen any action.
Dash's car arrived at an old apartment building.
"Alright. They have him in there, this should be easy. Packie will owe us." Dash said, loading her Glock17 pistol. Niko doing the same to his.
"Just be careful Dash." Niko said, wearing his classic outfit.
"You too." Dash replied.
Dash and Niko sneak into the house. But the bad guys were waiting for them and immediately open fire. But Niko and Dash weren't even very surprised and easily shoot their way though the house, Dash untying Packie, who helps kill the few remaining.
"Can't leave you alone five minutes can I." Dash teased.
"They caught me off guard." Packie said defensively.
"Yeah yeah, let's just go home." Dash giggled. Packie nodes and runs off ahead. Leaving the other two alone again.
"Well, that was easy." Niko said.
"Yes, good seeing you sgain Niko. Thanks." Dash replied.
Niko, knowing they're both lonely, and needing to move on from Kate. Ended up surprisingly himself by asking Dash out. Niko is surpised to himself say it almost as much as Dash is to hear it.
"Oh.. Jee Niko.. I. I don't know... I mean.. I'm a mess!.. I'm a homeless, ill tempered, mess" Dash said, sadly.
"We both are, and frankly Roman likes you and suggested the idea. I figured it was worth a shot" Niko insisted.
"Fine. We can head to a bar later." Dash said sadly. And out she goes, Packie driving her home.
Fortantely said relationship does end up succeeding, it's even stated that they end up marrying at some point. Packie is a bit jealous, hinting he likes her. But he's otherwise supportive. Gerry is also supportive, being quick to see her as a replacement sister.
Once Dash started living with him, Niko moved back into the place that use to be PlayboyX's, you'd have to play the game to know what I mean. But he chose the Bohan place as his house.
Well I've never been good at endings.. So I'll end it here..
