Jason had Preacher taking aerial video using the ball as he flew over around. He wasn't liking being around the area. Then he started to her commotion over the radio. Julie? Sighing to himself, he pressed the button on his headset. "Recon Leader to Scout Leader, whats going on down below? Is everything ok? When we are done here, you'll have some footage from the Ball up top to watch of the area." Preacher zoomed in on the area to watch what was going on.
Preacher: Sir, it seems they're big guy who seems to flex his pecs every chance he can apprehended someone and has him on the ground in handcuffs and has a revolver aimed at him. Tegan is with her wife.
Jason: Copy that Preacher, get back to taking that film for Tegan. She will want to see everything.
Preacher: 10-4 Recon Leader.
Jason: Recon Leader to Falcon, buzz over head and make sure whatever it is going on down below, they have fire support from above. But don't fly to low making up drafts for them. Don't want to hear people complaining about it from the rotors.
Falcon and Wolverine: 10-4 on that Boss, flying over head now.
The MD-500 began to fly over head until Wolverine had his laser sight aimed onto Dalton who was still on the ground. Jason began to keep flying around the area allowing Preacher to do what he was ordered to do. Jason was worried a bit as to the news he might hear over the radio waves since Tegan was his friend from back in their old Flying days, espically the Green Zone incident with the Croc. He then thought, 'Did she tell Julie about the croc?'

Tamara, I'm fine... Tyler kicked me in the ribs is'all and the little bugger kicks like he's on a pro kickball team! You need'ta check on Melody... Ain't no problems here, the baby is fine. *looking right in Tegan's eyes as she said this* I am fine. Go check on that little girl. *Casting a glance back to her father* And i'd feel a lot safer if there was a place we could lock that guy up for awhile... He can't have free reign to just go puttin his hands'on women.... It ain't right!
Hearing Julie's words gave comfort to Tegan; seeing Roner come over, he said, "Watch her, make sure she's alright. Get Dunn to stand with you, keep her safe, okay?" As they helped Julie over to the side, Tegan - whose blood was still boiling - walked over to where Forest and a couple others had Dalton Miller restrained. "Stand him up," she said to Forest; she had a lot of things she wanted to ask him, first among them, What kind of person lays a hand on their kid? What kind of person - not a man, but a person -m does such a thing?

Seen Tegan rush over to Julie, David moved out of the way. When she asked for Dalton to be up so she could ask the bastard why he had done this. A smirk came over David's face as he slid his .357 into it's holster. Nodding his head, he walked over to Dalton and grabbed him by the back of his neck and heaved him onto his feet. Gently pushing him to be in front of Tegan, the sound of one of the helicopters flying over head was heard as David saw a red dot aimed right for the back of Dalton's spine. Looking over, he saw a guy sitting at the edge of his seat with a Machingun. Whistling, he said smiling. "Damn, big gun. He Must be compensating for something."
Wolverine: You Numb nuts, your walkie is still on. So that means I can still hear you.
Looking at his Walkie talkie, he had seen that the button was still a bit stuck. Feeling bright about doing that, he smiled still and gave him a thumbs up. Wolverine just shook his head laughing. 'Well atleast He has a good sense of humor.' He thought to himself.

When she heard what all was going on from her rig, Hannah opened the door, shutting it and ran to the back to only see that a guy she hasn't met yet was in handcuffs and was being heaved to his feet. Walking over to them, she heard over the walkie what the guy in the chopper said to David. Punching him in the bicep. "Smooth move numb nuts. What the fuck happened back here when we weren't looking?" David laughed a bit then went all serious.
David: Well, I was running from Dana's truck, you know, all that good stuff when I saw Miller lite here leaning into Tegan's truck. Thought he was checking up on his daughter and all that smooth jazz. Here, the fucker decides to call Julie a bitch straight out blasting our poor prego group mom a new one. Then decided to try and pull Melody out of the truck through the back door window. And then I was like Oh hell no you dirty little skank. I ran up, grabbed his wrist, he popped me in the jaw, I popped him in his ugly face and handcuffed his sorry white ass on the asphalt...you have any asperin I can take? He gave me a boo-boo -then he tried to give the puppy dog look, it wasn't working.-
Hannah just looked at him dumb founded. 'What the hell am I going to do with this squad? I'm surrounded by Nut jobs!' She thought to herself. Sighing, she pointed at the rig. "In the Medical bag behind my seat on a shelf. Go and get some..." David smiled and walked over to the rig and then said. "You want me to whip you up some dinner hun?" Enraged, she slowly turned her head and drew out her gun walking after him. Seeing the gun he started to do a nervous laugh.
David: "I'm sorry boss, I was joking....Hannah is molesting me and I'm starting to like it!"
Stopping in her tracks, her jaw fell open. "Did you seriously just say I was molesting you? W...wow...I'm speechless...get the medication, take it and get out of my rig and sit with your brother n the rest of team 6. I'll need to blow some steam off for a bit since it seems my trip with Dana might be getting canceled." Looking at the ground, she wanted to put a hole into the back of Miller's head. But, she holstered her gun and leaned against the back tires of her rig sighing to herself. With her walkie, she chirped the radio.
Hannah: Leader 6 to leader 3, please get your beautiful butt out of the back of the tundra and meet me at the back of my rig. You will be updated once you get up here. And no i wasnt molesting David. Leader 6, out. -lets go of the button and sets the walkie onto the back of her rig-
David was in and out of the rig like the flash. Grabbing the pills and out the other side to avoid any wrath Hannah decided to unleash upon his 6'3" body. He went back over to Dalton since he had the only key for the handcuffs. If he played nice, then David might let him out of the cuffs, if not, the cuffs might get tighter or somebody might just put his lights out for him and let him sleep in the back of something tied down.
Standing up now with his head rightously killing him and his hands cuffed behind his back he stared at Tegan... Cocky lesbian bitch... He thought. If she didn't have Mr. Dancing Tits back here she wouldn't be so smug he thought. He found it hard to hide his distain for her at the moment. It was his daughter he figured he had the right to talk to her however the hell he felt like! What business was it of theirs? Now He looked over at Melody who was sitting in the back of the tundra huddled up crying, hugging her knees to her chest... There was a thin line of blood trickling from the corner of his mouth, He looked at Tegan directly now and did something he never did anymore..... He smiled.
Miller: *Nodding his head to the left in Melody's direction, while keeping his steely cold eyes on Tegan he kept smiling as he spoke* You see what you guys did there? You made my little girl cry.... She's wondering why you're hurting her daddy... Now you going to fuckin let me out of these god dam cuffs? I'd really hate to have to get nasty with you people... I tolerate your bullshit and your mock authority because The Hive kept my little girl safe, but guess what sugartits.... The Hive is gone.... It's just you now, and i can see the terror in your eyes, i can see how scared you are to fail and you know what.... If you keep making stupid fucking judgement calls like this, you will fail. You're going to get everyone here killed... Just like you were supposed to be in charge of defense of The Hive and right now it's in flames.... How does that make you feel...... Bitch.
Miller was never like this... He was quiet. To himself.. He never caused problems. Sure he could be a bit heavy handed when throwing his opinion around, but he had never been this openly defiant, this out of control angry before. He had recently started suffering migraines. They were terrible. They felt like someone filled his head with razors and shook it violently.. When they occured, it was like he was a completely different man... He was no longer the sad, grieving dentist from Oxford, Maine, he was a right ugly son of a bitch who just wanted to hurt people. Lashing out at whatever's closest, the pain in his head made him violent, made him want people to hurt as bad as he hurt. He couldn't think clearly, couldn't see anything but the blinding white rage that gripped his mind and curled his angry fists... Julie, who had been standing right there had heard about enough of this fucker's mouth..
Miller: You let me out of these god dam....
Julie walked right up to him and punched him right in the face.. She reared back and let it fly with everything she had. All the anger she had came rushing out in one powerful blow. Dalton's head fell limp and his body slumped in the scout's arms... His arms distending backwards as his body fell lower. If the scout holding Miller didn't catch him and readjust the way he was holding the now unconsious Miller, he probably would have dislocated his shoulders... No one, but Melody knew that he was going through something with these migraines. That they had been altering his personality when they came about. All anyone knew about Miller was he put his hands on his daughter and they were not ok with that..... Julie shook her wrist in pain... Trying to shake off the throbbing ach in her hand. She turned towards Melody.
Julie: I'm sorry sugar, i had'ta shut him up before one of us shot his ass!
Melody wiped her tears from her face, nodding and slowly crawled out of the Tundra, she walked right up to Julie and threw her arms around her hugging her tightly.
Melody: He's not always like this! He's not.. He's a good man.... A good dad, he's just sick right now...
Melody's sad eyes looked back at her father, she just wanted her dad to be happy again.
Julie: Can we find some place'ta put him? And can we get'on with settlin in? This has been one emotional journey, i think we all just need to relax a little and everything will be ok... *Hugging Melody back she spoke to her* Come on sugar, you can ride with me on the jetski and i won't let'chu fall in i promise... You ride up front and steer and i'll hang on'ta ya for death life, and i won't let you fall in.... That's a promise....
Melody was terrified, but she agreed to cross the water with Julie. She trusted her.

Dana was a few trucks back. She had her radio off and didn't know about the comotion up front. She didn't hear Hannah calling for her on the radio. Dana was leaning into the driver's side window of Scout team 3's Turndra going over the checklist with Stump. Stump was holding a clipboard and going over the checklist with Dana.. They were checking tirepreasure, mileage, how much gas they used to get here, they check off that the wipers worked, everything that had to do with maintanence. Dana liked to run a checklist everytime they stopped.. Just to make sure it was all on the up and up. Dana finished the checklist with Stump and tapped on the roof.
Dana: Alright big boy you're good to go!
Stump: *He turned his head to the side and squinted one eye appearing to consider the new nickname given to him by the lovely Dana* I don't like big boy, i perfer curvy!
Dana: *Dana laughed* Shut the fuck up and get goin! We're all heading in on boats and jetskis to the other side of the isle... Big Boy Curvy, whatever you're ass falls in the water i bet you'll still float.
Stump; That's only cus i have a high salt diet, makes me boyant and floaty....
Dana: *Always enjoying her lighthearted ribbing with Stump, because he usually kept pace with her smartass nature laughed again* You're tits make you boyant and floaty now get going i got to go find my gal.
Stump: You got it boss!
Limping only slightly Dana set off to find Hannah wanting to greet her with a kiss, she had been away from her for hours and that was already to long. She didn't know about Miller's apprehension, she didn't know the scene up ahead, she walked into it blind... Walking up and seeing a scout holding an unconsious Miller and his daughter clutching Julie, she silently said "oh fuck what the hell happened?" She saw Hannah walk up and Julie was talking to Tegan at the moment... Dana looked at Hannah with stunned silence... After a moment she managed to ask her....
Dana: What the fuck is going on?

Hannah watched as Julie just full out punch Miller in the face after he was calling Tegan a bitch and on the border pathetic leader. Shaking her head as a scout caught him from falling to the ground. David helped the scout by holding Miller's limpless bodies other half. 'Should have let him fall fully.' She thought and looked back at the ground for a while. She began to wonder where Dana was since she did call her not to long ago. Looking up from looking at the ground for a bit, she saw Dana there asking what just happened. Pushing herself off the side of the big tire, she stretched her arms out and saw that everything was pretty much under control. Taking her hand, she pulled Dana to the front of the truck and let go of it.
Hannah: David told me that he was coming up from your truck when he saw Miller leaning into Leader 1 Tundra. He explained that he was going to say to him until he heard Miller call Julie a bitch straight out and then tried to yank Melody out of the back door window. He was able to break Millers hold on Melody. Him and David decided to see who had the stronger punch. David won, and got him handcuffed. Mr. Forest then Radioed in that Julie was having a hard time breathing. So me and Tegan hopped out of the rig since we were about to talk about me and your trip to the great lakes. Now...I just heard Miller calling Tegan a bitch, a bad leader, and some other nonsense and was demanding to be set free from the cuffs. Fat chance in hell for that now. And I guess Julie had enough of it. She just punched him square in that face of his and knocked him out cold. Remind me not to piss off a Pregnant Julie, Love. Yeah, I may have saved her life back before shit hit the fan, but damn...one hit and he's down like that? Fuck me six way to sunday....know what....that doesn't sound to bad after all...hmmm, Up for love making six days in a row? Non stop action?
Hannah was trying to lighten the mood a bit for she had a feeling that Dana was ready to snap and go full ballistic missile on Miller's ass on, or better yet, when he wakes up. Pretty sure a lot of people wanted a piece of him now for what he said and done. You never put a hand on a child, and you never say you talk to them however you want to. Their your child for a reason, they didn't ask to be born. You made the bed, now he better step up to the plate or somebody in the group would happily adopt that poor, sweet girl who was still holding Julie.
Hannah: Poor Melody...she's probably scared, confused, lost about how her dad was just acting...how he is handcuffed like a convicted villian...for him laying in both those guys arms knocked out because a Pregnant Julie was in an uproar for what he did and said. -shaking her head, she leans up against the grill crossing her arms around her waist and sighed.- Such a shit show right now...hopefully we will get an answer from Tegan about our trip. But as for now my flawless Diamond, lets go over there and see if they need help with anything or to try and calm Julie down. Stress is no good for momma and baby.

Watching as David and Knoxville brought a handcuffed Dalton Miller to his feet, Tegan thought about she was going to say....but first, she just wanted to know what his major problem was; unfortunately, Miller answered it in one long, unadulterated hatefest of a speech.... *Nodding his head to the left in Melody's direction, while keeping his steely cold eyes on Tegan he kept smiling as he spoke* You see what you guys did there? You made my little girl cry.... She's wondering why you're hurting her daddy... Now you going to fuckin let me out of these god dam cuffs? I'd really hate to have to get nasty with you people... I tolerate your bullshit and your mock authority because The Hive kept my little girl safe, but guess what sugartits.... The Hive is gone.... It's just you now, and i can see the terror in your eyes, i can see how scared you are to fail and you know what.... If you keep making stupid fucking judgement calls like this, you will fail. You're going to get everyone here killed... Just like you were supposed to be in charge of defense of The Hive and right now it's in flames.... How does that make you feel...... Bitch.
Why you sonuvabitch, Tegan thought, now knowing what to say to this...this pathetic excuse of a human being, she thought. "For starters," she said, grabbing his arm, "you made her cry, not the other way around. Now, I know I'm not the smartest bulb in the light factory, but even I know a man, a real man, doesn't lay a hand on either their wife or their kids...and you did that," her voice as cold as Antarctic ice. "Second, I can tolerate a lot of stuff, but one thing I do not and will not tolerate is insubordination, Dalton, such as with your little radio stunt earlier as were were arriving here. That alone still has me steamed; if I didn't think for one moment we could get across the bridge safely, we would still be out there on that boulevard....you let me worry about the big stuff; you worry about your place in the whole scheme of things; just do your job by the numbers and on the bounce...that's all I ask, Dalton. Do that and I'll be as happy as a street performer at the annual Folsom Street Fair in San Francisco, thank you very much....."
Before Tegan could continue, Dalton added, You let me out of these god dam.... Before she could say anything, Julie of all people, lunged forward and slugged Dalton Miller with a punch that would've done Ali or Frazier proud, sending him to the ground in a lump of meat and bones. "Put this....," pausing because she didn't want to say what she really wanted to say in front of Melody, who was still, scared out of her mind, sitting in the back of the Tundra, "man somewhere out of sight....now, please."

Watching everything unfold as it did, Thomas looked over at Zoey and signed, What the hell's going on? with a deadpan manner that shocked even him after he signed the words to her....hearing Tegan ask for someone to help put the man - Dalton Miller, I think she said, he thought - he stepped forward. "Put him in the back of the PGW van," pointing towards his Philadelphia Gas Works vehicle. "We got room to spare in there and there's no way for him to get out of the back, either out the back of the van or through the front...he'll be secure there, ma'am."
Looking over at Zoey, he shrugged as if to say, I gotta do something to help....
Julie was proud of her wife. It could have been easy to loose her cool and attack the guy after the awful, horible, rotten things he had spewed from his vile mouth like a poisonous cloud, but she kept her cool and even tried to reason with the man. Julie would have probably gone apeshit on the guy the second his toxic spilled from his lips if he were talking to her. Julie looked over to Dana who looked beyond pissed at Miller having just been filled in... Dana stepped over to Tegan...
Dana: Boss, i'm sorry he's never acted like that before, i don't know what's gotten into him. I'll let you decide what happens to him Boss, he's my scout, but it's your call... You're callin the show here and we fuckin made Boss, you got us to Bell Isle, 60 people in one piece halfway across country... Don't listen to what one asshole says.... There ain't nobody i'd rather call Boss, Boss.....
Julie touched Tegan lightly on the shoulder and started walking over to where the jetskis were. She was ready to meet the people of Bell Isle and put all the drama in the rearview mirror. Julie led Melody who was still nervous about the jetskis over to where they were. She helped Melody onto it and then she got on it carefully herself... She looked over and waved to Tegan, before reaching over Melody's shoulder and turning the key... She wrapped her arms around her waiste and leaned her head against her back.
Julie: You take it as slow as you want to baby.... We ain't in no hurry'ta get there *Julie was she still had to pee even after all the excitment* We just take it one moment at a time ok honey? *Taking one last look at Tegan she yelled out to her* I'M GOING TO TAKE MELODY ON ACROSS, SHE'S A BIT SHAKEN UP AND WE NEED TO GET HER SOME REST!
Melody was scared shitless, but the ride wasn't so bad for her. She just kept starting at the island and not looking at the water, and before long they had made it across, and she was actually proud of herself for doing it. She didn't want to do it again, but she was proud of herself for doing it.. She couldn't have done it alone, so she was glad Julie had decided to ride with her. Julie grabbed her hand and started walking up the path towards the buildings.. She wasn't sure what or who to expect here, but she knew that this was the place they needed to be right now... For better or worse, Bell Isle was where they needed to be.

As a couple of Scouts led Dalton Miller to the PGW van, Tegan just shook her head; she could tolerate a lot of stuff - any commander had to - but there were limits and Miller had pushed her close to those limits....apparently, Dana had noticed this and spoke quietly to her....
Boss, i'm sorry he's never acted like that before, i don't know what's gotten into him. I'll let you decide what happens to him Boss, he's my scout, but it's your call... You're callin the show here and we fuckin made Boss, you got us to Bell Isle, 60 people in one piece halfway across country... Don't listen to what one asshole says.... There ain't nobody i'd rather call Boss, Boss.....
"Thanks, Dana," Tegan said quietly, acknowledging her comrade's presence and giving her a friendly slug to the shoulder. Motioning to everyone, she quickly barked out a few orders, most notably, "Get these vehicles pulled to the side of the road and let's head across the pedestrian bridge there and say hello to everyone here." As the vehicles began moving towards the area she had pointed to, Julie walked over, wrapped her arms around Tegan and quietly said to her... You take it as slow as you want to baby.... We ain't in no hurry'ta get there *Julie was she still had to pee even after all the excitment* We just take it one moment at a time ok honey? *Taking one last look at Tegan she yelled out to her* I'M GOING TO TAKE MELODY ON ACROSS, SHE'S A BIT SHAKEN UP AND WE NEED TO GET HER SOME REST!
"Alright," Tegan said, giving her a long, passionate kiss, "I'll see you inside," watching as Julie and Melody headed over on one of the Island's jet-ski's, remembering a quote she'd heard in, of all places, Aviation School back at Ft. Rucker years ago....
General, soldiering has one great trap: to be a good solider you must love the army. To be a good commander, you must be willing to order the death of the thing you love. We do not fear our own death you and I. But there comes a time... We are never quite prepared for so many to die. Oh, we do expect the occasional empty chair. A salute to fallen comrades. But this war goes on and on and the men die and the price gets ever higher. We are prepared to loose some of us, but we are never prepared to loose all of us. And there is the great trap General. When you attack, you must hold nothing back. You must commit yourself totally. We are adrift here in a sea of blood and I want it to end....
She couldn't quite remember who said those words, but she knew damn well she didn't want to lose anyone else...regardless of who they were.
Molly: Black Bird to Recon Leader, come back over.
Jason: Recon Leader here, what's the 4-1-1 Black bird?
Wolverine: Don't ever piss off Scout Leader's wife, she just KO'ed that guy earlier who gotten his ass arrested by that walking Pec fortress. Daaaamn, he went down faster then a tub full of horse shit! Get 'em, Get 'em! They're now hauling the asshole to some van that say's 'Philadelphia Water' on the side of it...how can anyone stand driving a van? I mean...seriously? Jason: Wolverine, watch your language. It maybe colorful to say, but try to keep it professional. what are they doing? Recon 1 is on the other side of the island filming. And what's wrong with Van's? You wouldn't believe how many times my ass was saved by a well placed van. Over.
Molly: They are going across now, we are staying over head with the first couple which is the Wife and a child who seems scared. We will report back if anything happens, Black Bird out.
Jason: 10-4 Black Bird, We will see you on the Dark side of the moon. Recon Leader out.
Preacher: She scares me, I wonder how Scout Leader is doing. It looked like that guy was up in her business and was shouting at her. I was able to get a peek of it before Black Bird arrived to them for Fire Support. My filming is done, Scout leader has a lot to see. By the looks of it we have a storm rolling up on us from the North. Better go land our birds.
Jason: Indeed Preacher, -Flipping the Switch to Scan- Belle Isle, This is Recon Leader Jason Kern from The Hive, requesting permission for me and our other Helicopter to land.
Belle Isle response: Permission Granted Recon Leader Jason Kern, please go lands your helicopters up in the northern part of the Island, You will be greeted upon your landing. Belle Isle out.
Jason flipped off the switch for the radio. Shaking his head he thought to himself that this place was bad news. But they all couldn't be that bad. The last time he was here was with his Wife on a supply run where him and Mary were hit on by quite a few people from the establishment. But now, Mary was gone. Flipping his frequency back to Tegan's Scout's.
Jason: Recon Leader to Scout Leader. Recon One is coming in for a landing. If you want to see the footage of the aerial view, you will have to meet up with me in the northern part of the Island. I'll stay by the choppers. Then we can catch up. See you soon TamTam, Recon Leader out.
Mean while, Back on the ground;
Hannah and her Scout team walked over to Tegan as they all watched Julie and Melody skimming across the water. Turning her head, she looked at her now assembled Scout team 6 and finally said. "You guys, get across, I'll see you all on the flip side. Go." They went across and went onto one of the boats. Leader 6 watched most of her team go across except for one. David, he was still right beside Hannah and Tegan. Looking at him, she leaned her head back away from him confused. David came up to Tegan and patted her shoulder.
David: Don't listen to that Clown Leader 1. Your one hell of a Leader. I'm grateful that we have you, for if we didn't....we all might have perished along with the Hive. If you need anything Tegannator, don't be afraid to ask little old me for.
Hannah: Your little? If you are, then it's something I don't want to see. Get your ass across David. -Hannah watched as David began to laugh hard as he went and jumped onto a Jetski going across.- I guess we are ready to finish our conversation Leader 1?
Hannah crossed her arms around her stomach as she watched more and more of the scouts going across the water to get to the little island. It surprised her how people survived on such an island for so long and not be at each other's throats. Dana's team was moving up. She extended her hand and snatched up Dana into it. Pulling her close to her, Hannah had a smile on her face as she felt her lover in her hand and arm. A feeling that will never grow old to her.
Post by David Forest on Aug 12, 2016 6:28:32 GMT -5
After crossing the channel, he dismounted the Jetski and saw that his team was further on up ahead and Julie with Melody was even further. Sighing to himself, he ran like his life depended on it. Like a linebacker going to the end zone for a touch down. Zig zagging through people and even jumped over a person who conveniently had to tie their shoes. Landing on both his feet, he kept up his run. Catching up to his team and all but passing them now, he yelled to them. "Lets go Girl Scouts! We got a Lady and a little one to excort, what would our Dearest Leader 1 think if something was to have happened on our watch? CHOOOOP SUUUUEEEEEY! Oh hey there fine lovely ladies." The last part he said to a group of females who came to see who was arriving to their colony.
Finally Catching up to Julie and Melody, and one very out of breath David, he hunched over with a hand up gasping for air. "Damn....you two move fast....for just...walking...." Catching his wind finally, the rest of Team Six filed formation on either side of Julie and Melody. David to Julie's left, North Star to Melodies Right, Lawrence to David's left, ect. ect. Their hands were at the ready in case somebody wanted to try and start trouble. Since Hannah wasn't their with her Team, David was the next in line to take charge of this fine ban Unit which some have started to call the Vanguard due their size of a Squad and the amount of Fire power they had.
North Star: I'm still mad at you Lawrence for throwing out my CD.
Lawrence: Well then, shows you right for touching my brother's CD player and trying to put in some gay ass shit instead. The number one rule, Driver gets to pick. Since I was the driver and with the permission of our Second fearless squad leader and brother of mine, I got to choose the music. Hell, maybe you'll find that CD here somewhere. Bet that slob made millions off her shitty singing career.
David: -Meanwhile, with David.- Heya Ladies, if you want a good time and not be able to walk for a good long week, come hit me up. I'll show you all some Good ol' loving. But be warned, you might need a wheel chair afterwards.
A woman with short blonde hair smiled and blushed when she heard David and considered the offer while David was still on the move with his unit and with whom they were protecting. David has a rather...Unique way of flirting. And sometimes, it involved the wheelchair line for it did happen from time to time. After he had gotten done his 'Round', the lady he was with had to be put into a wheelchair for a week.
Barry walked. His FAMAS rifle slung over his shoulder and hanging by his side, lightly jouncing as he stepped. He had finally caught up to Dannay and Bailey... He looked over to them. Bailey was still wearing her sunglasses her leather jacket and her favorite plaid skirt. She had on some leggings and a pair of untied combat boots that she liked to call her "shit kickers" for kicking the shit out of anyone who pissed her off. Bailey was TNT wrapped in barbed wire you didn't want her to explode and go ballistic on you... Miller was still in danger of that, though word hadn't reached Bailey yet of what he had said to Tegan... If she found out, someone would have to hold her back because despite the size different Bailey would ball over his ass. Pocketz and Bailey got on a jetski together.
Bailey: Hey Danny can i drive?
Pocektz: Go for it kid!
Bailey: Hell yeah!
Bailey and Danny made their way acorss the water, and now all that remained uncrossed was Stump, Dana, Hannah and Commander Lyell. Stump walked up to where Dana and Hannah were standing. They seemed to be talking so he waited for them to finish talking before speaking up.
Stump: So Danny and Bailey are across, have you seen Miller? Did he make it across? *Turning his head to Hannah realizing he hadn't met her yet he smiled at her.* Hi, i'm Barry North.
Dana: Call him Stump. He loves it. And we'll talk about Miller later.
Stump: Yeah, most people just call me Stump. I'm Dana's second in command. I just wanted to tell you personally *Barry had seen her holding Dana close and had heard about her budding romance with Hannah, scouts talk.... A lot* That i won't let anything happen to your girl out there.... My job is to keep team leader safe.
Dana: Trust me Hannah. He's very good at his job, he is just kinda an idiot sometimes....
Stump: *Shrugged accepting the fact that he was indeed an idiot sometimes, as complete fact.* So anyways, i don't really want to get on a jetski, my wide ass on one of those things probably wouldn't be smart so i was going to take the boat across...... * Barry looked over to Tegan who was standing off to the side looking like she was trying to remember something (The quote she was thinking of) Hey commander, i was just going to ask them if they wanted to ride across in the boat with me; we're the only one's left. Do you want to hitch aride?
Stump's radio started to crackle to life, and he looked down. He thought someone was about to say something, but it just made a bunch of static sounds. He sighed... He busted his radio somehow, and the dam thing seemed to be on the fritz... He never knew what was going on until someone told him personally face to face what had happened. Unless he was standing close to someone else with a radio....Nearby Tegan's radio went off. It was Pocketz.
Pocketz: Leader 1 this is Danny Brenard. Just chirppin in to let you know..... Bailey is safetly across the water, oh and little girl's got mad driving skills.... Hey Dana if you're listening we should make Bailey the wheelman for the crew... She can be in charge of driving on all missions. *Bailey could be in the background of the radio trasmission excitedly cheering the idea. Pocketz let go of the mic button for a second and looked at Bailey... "And the best part, driver chooses the music." Keying down the mic he added.* And tell Stump to get his fat ass over here, before we eat up all the food.
Stump: *Smiled a bit embarrassed in front of Hannah and looked at her trying to explain it away* He probably has the muchies, freaking pothead. *Stump rolled his eyes and waited to see who was joining him on the boat*

Before Tegan could say anything else, her radio chirped; it was the Scouts' recon leader.... Recon Leader to Scout Leader. Recon One is coming in for a landing. If you want to see the footage of the aerial view, you will have to meet up with me in the northern part of the Island. I'll stay by the choppers. Then we can catch up. See you soon TamTam, Recon Leader out.
"Yeah, I want to see that footage, Recon 1, but save it for later on this evening and I'll look at it then," Tegan replied as she continued walking towards the pedestrian foot-bridge connecting the bulk of Belle Isle to where the survivors lived, "Leader 1 out." Turning the volume down low (and hearing both David & Pocketz' remarks over the radio), she began walking across the bridge, thinking, I cannot believe this place has survived this long...especially stuck between two urban centers, remembering from memory that Belle Isle was located in-between the cities of Detroit, Michigan and Windsor, Ontario.....kinda like being stuck between Scylla and Charybdis, she mused.
Looking up ahead, she saw a group of ladies standing nearby (Belle Isle's medics - a/k/a "The Angels of Detroit): Kate McCready-Bates, Natasha Scott, Hannah Lerios, Haley Haller, Kasie Heinrich and Melissa Patten) along with a couple of Belle Isle guards that could've given David and Stump a run for their money on being rough & tough themselves...walking over to them, Tegan looked right at the redhead, figuring her to be one of the Island's leaders. "Apologies for the inopportune welcome back there," she said, pointing her thumb behind her head in the opposite direction, "but something happened we had to take care of." After a moment, she relaxed a bit and added, "Tegan Lyell, from Rikers Island...and you are?"

After a moment, she relaxed a bit and added, "Tegan Lyell, from Rikers Island...and you are?"
"Don't sweat it; I used to work as a bartender back in the day and I could tell you some stories about those times," Kate said, shaking hands with Tegan. "Kate MacCready-Bates, Senior Medic here at Belle Isle...I assume you guys have already met Ian Sharpe--"
"We have," Tegan replied....
"Sarah's inside, on the third floor in her office, talking to our people on the other side of the river right now," Kate said. "She's been calling down every few minutes wondering when you guys would get here; if you'll follow me, Tegan, I'll take you up to see her...."

She was looking down at Dana just smiling until she heard one of Dana's team members start to talk. Then her head looked up and saw a rather big guy standing there, and not the tall kind either. And then Dana chimed into the greeting that the guy was trying to give. She only smiled til it was done.
Stump: So Danny and Bailey are across, have you seen Miller? Did he make it across? *Turning his head to Hannah realizing he hadn't met her yet he smiled at her.* Hi, i'm Barry North.
Dana: Call him Stump. He loves it. And we'll talk about Miller later.

Do you want to hitch aride?
Hannah watched them talking back and forth feeling like the third wheel for a bit. Her Jade color eyes going back and forth. Reaching her hand out straight towards Stump, she still had her smile on her face making her look rather beautiful. Her Irish accent started to kick in as she kept her voice warm as butter and soft as silk.
Hannah: Hello Barry North, I'm Hannah Madison Emritz. But you can call me Raven if you like, the Creed that raised me from the time I was just a wee little lass. They called me Raven for I was the best at Scaling walls and leaping from building to building in Atlanta. Thinking about it still gives me a thrill. I was also the best thief they had, no door I couldn't pick and no rig I couldn't jack or even hot wire. And I would hope you would mate, I would hope you would keep my Flawless Diamond Dana here safe. She is the only thing I have left keeping me to this world. I know I can't always keep an eye on her, but I feel a bit better knowing that You will be watching over her for me when you guys are out on a mission -Hannah looked back down at her smiling brightly. Her eyes looked up towards Stump. Stepping over to him, she wrapped an arm around him and gave him a Hug. A HUG! She was showing the first time in a long time that she was trusting a guy. Stepping away, she kept her gaze upon his eyes as she spoke to him again still holding Dana.- A ride would be nice, I'd rather be on the boat then in that water swimming against the current and all. What do you think love? -Hearing about the food part and how Stump reacted.- Just remember Barry, your second in command. They are just little stumps compared to you big guy. Now go show them who's boss when we get over. Which comes to think of it, I'll need to get to my -Putting her fingers in the air making air quotes- Vanguard Squad and make sure they haven't started killing each other yet. -Sighs to herself and kisses Dana's head again-

.....30 minutes later.....Well, that went better than expected, Tegan mused as she stepped outside the Detroit yacht Club building, which marked the headquarters for the Belle Isle stronghold. It'd been a long conversation between her and Sarah Sharpe, the stronghold's overall leader - a little heated in spots, convivial in others - but in the end, the Rikers' Island people were welcome to stay on the Island for as long as they needed and that made Tegan feel really good.
Sitting down on the steps outside the front entrance, Tegan grabbed her radio and keyed the mic. "All TLs', this is Leader 1; rally at the front steps ASAP. Leader 1 out." Setting her radio back in its' belt loop along her waist, she looked around and thought, For once we'll get to rest somewhere and not have to worry about having to look over our shoulders every moment....is it too good to be true? I don't know, she thought, but I'll be darned if I'm going to turn away a chance to rest and recuperate if I can help it....

Most of the TL's were all near each other with their squads. Everyone was talking to each other. Except for Hannah, she was busy reading her map. Her radio was turned up to the max. When it chirped, she looked at where she had it sitting, on a tired next to her as she sat on a patch of grass. "All TLS', this is Leader 1; rally at the front steps ASAP. Leader 1 out." Snatching it up in her right hand, she walkied in. "Leader 6, copy that Leader 1." A couple of minutes later, another chirp on the radio, this time it was Jason on the line.
"Recon Leader to Scout Leader. Let me finish up here with the birds and I'll be right over. I got soooome....I got something that you'll have to see. Has to deal with that big ass storm that is rolling in." Hannah looked at everyone and then looked at the sky. Towards the north, was a massive wall of black slowly inching its way towards them. Thunder cracks off in the distance which causes the air around them to vibrate from the kinetic blast.
"Ok ladies, you heard the boss. Lets go see what Lady T. needs to tell us." Hannah said to the rest of the Leaders as she stood up and ran. Keeping up with her was Dana. A smile came over her face as they both held hands. She was eager to find out what was going on and to find out if her and Dana's trip was still a Green light or a bust. The latter choice would suck if Tegan said and she began to imagine Tegan saying no in rather slow speed and Drawn out. "NNNNNNNNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" The thought made her smile a bit more as they slowed down and saw Tegan sitting on the steps. 'Huh, that was fast. I need to study this island more.' "Leader 6 here." Then she heard Dana say, "Leader 3, whats up Boss?"
Brian was coming down from upstairs when he heard all the commotion. He had heard something about a group from New York arriving soon. To him this was rather strange. He had been out alone for a long time after his last group died, just running, surviving, surviving and running. That's all he knew... And he was shocked when he saw the small community of Bell Isle and it's inhabitants. But when Brian got a sight at the 60 plus people who had come in from New York he was almost god dam floored.. He stood halfway on the steps as scouts and scavengers came in. There was a shitload of them... Bailey was amongst them, and Brian marveled at her... They even had kids? What the hell? How big was this group? Brian hadn't seen a kid in a long time. It was kinda a shock to his system... Like going 3 years without seeing a dog only to open up your front door and see one taking a shit on your welcom mat. Brian watched as the people filed in and then he saw "HER." Brian couldn't believe his eyes... She stepped into the room looked at the ceiling, admiring the size of the place, it had been awhile since her group had a chance to spread out stretch their legs and really "relax" for more than just one night... She was in awe. Brian was in awe too. He thought, "it can't be" it wasn't. At first Brian thought i was his mother Audrey. It wasn't her. She looked much to young, but she was her spitting image. She looked like she could be a twin! Or........A DAUGHTER! Brian pulled the photo of his mother out of his pocket and unfolded it. He looked at it for a long moment... Before lowering it. Standing directly behind where the picture was held up was Julie, still looking around the place in amazement as she set her duffle bags down. Brian turned the picture over... There was a handwritten note on the back.... Kinda faded, but still readable. "My dearest Brian and Julie, i'm sorry i wasn't a very good mother.... Find comfort in knowing that i loved you both."
Brian tucked the picture away, back in his pocket. He knew that he had a sister out there. He often wondered what she was like. She was given away for adoption when he was five and she was just a newborn. Their mother had a lot of issues, mental illness and alcohol being the major ones. Brian quickly rushed down the steps, and as he got closer he realized she was pregnant. He smiled a bit. "So she hasn't been alone all this time. Good." He thought to himself as he reached down and grabbed her bags... Standing back up he looked at her..... He couldn't help but smile. It was her. He was sure of it. He had never had the chance to see her again after their mother gave her up, but 3 years after the end of the world and a fucking diddy of a coinsidence, and he finally had the chance to meet his kid sister Julie.... She'd be about 23 now. He smiled at her and said....
Bix: Hi. I'm Brian. Welcome to Bell Isle.
Julie: Julie. It's very nice to meet you Brian.
Bix: It's nice to meet you too...... *Now smiling ear to ear knowing 100% this was his long lost sister* ........ Julie.
Shauna Kelly: That helped, thank you
