((Tryin to save myself but myself keeps slippin'...))
I hear Erika's voice behind me and immediately stop in my tracks, and run back towards her.
"nuts, what am I doing..." I ask myself out loud, leaving Vossya behind. "Don't worry, I got you." I say to Erika, picking her up and holding her in my arms. I feel very protective when she's in my arms and wonder what to do about Despair. "What should we do about him..?"

"Bring him! I don't know why he hates you, but maybe he'll listen to me." I say, half crying. Again the divided loyalties come to the front of my mind, and I am unsure what to do.

Bassarov glares at Mischa with Erika. He has the strong urge to leave the city for a while.
"I suppose I can grab him. We can't just leave him here. Anyway, I am SURE Erika will miss him." Bassarov grabs the android awkwardly.
"Well...are you going to play Knight in Shining Armor to Freakboy as well?" Bassarov asks Mischa sharply. He is not in a good mood.

Virgil watches Despair leave and smiles, turning to look down at Freak Boy. He walks over to the man, smiling, green blood still running down his face.
"Your coming with us." The Hunter reachs out his hand and bends down, about to grab Freak Boy by the front of his shirt.

"Well I'm sorry Freakboy's not Zero or else you could rescue him yourself." I respond bitterly. "Are you going to grab him, or what?"

"I can go after him. I will drop Despair off at your apartment and return for Freakboy. Oh, and don't expext to see me tonight. I'll be doing other things." Bassarov teleports away and places Despair on Mischa's couch. He teleports back to room 11...or what remains of it. He sees that Virgil has Freakboy in his grasp.
"Freakboy...I'm here...sorry it took so long. Some problems along the way."

Freak Boy pulled back, giving him enough space to deliver a kick to Virgil's face. As Virgil was shoved back Freak Boy pulled out his Uzi and stood up. He was limping because of Despair's lazer attack, but still perfectly capable of wielding a weapon.
"Stay back... there are plenty of ways to convince me to go somewher WITHOUT trying to break my arm with your... tongue, I'm guessing it is."
He looks to Bassarov. "Bassarov, thanks for showing up. Things haven't really improved... the Dragon is still here and this guy is trying to kidnap me."

"Fine. I'll be busy too." I say as he teleports away. I continue to run down the tracks with Erika in my arms.
"Are you alright?" I ask, trying to change the subject from what just happened.

When I hear Zero's name mentioned an idea springs into my mind. Zero Americanski, who reprogrammed the Amy Smith android from scratch, and Kazenara Miyajama, who tried to hack into Zwei. Maybe Despair could be reprogrammed not to hate Mischa... It doesn't solve the Mitya problem, but it does help me to get away from Red Infinity...
"Yes, I'm fine... Sorry, I don't know why Despair hates you, but if I knew you were there I wouldn't have let him go in..." I hold onto him and bury my face in his chest, my tears moistening his shirt.

"What does LIF want with him? He is a human." Bassarov says to Virgil. He steps beside Freakboy. In the back of his mind he is trying to decide who he will f**k tonight to get back at Mischa and to improve his mood.

Virgil laughs at Freak Boy's kick and then at the weapon the man produces. "My, you do like to struggle don't you? Look, make this easier on yourself and..." Virgil turns as Bassarov returns. The smile widens enough for fangs to show, "Bassy, it's been to long. I wish I had time to chat, maybe go over some of your... feelings, about me stealing away your scrog mate but I'm kinda busy here. We need Freak Boy to give us a little information..."

"Freakboy happens to be one of the rebels and you are mistaken if you think you can take him without a fight." Bassarov summons his sickle. He is not in the best state of mind at the moment.

"What kind of information? While I disagree with your methods, you are clearly no friend to Red Infinity. An enemy of my enemy is my friend... or potential friend. While I won't necessarily join you, I might help you for a price." Freak Boy said in a tone beyond his years. He was aware the gun he held would have little affect. However, there were two backup plans. 1.) Shoot his eyes out. 2.) Shoot the support beam and knock the roof on the man and Nakia, then make a mad dash for India.

"H-hey... It's alright... I'm glad you are... Alright..." I say, a little startled by her tears. "We're almost there, don't worry..." I say, reaching the end of the tunnel. I gently set her down beside the tracks, and kneel to catch my breath.
"We'll be safe out here... Although I am leary of helping Despair, as I'm sure you understand... I don't quite know why he hates me either, I just... I just want to live..." I say, in an almost desperate tone of voice.
