X headed into the bunk room and took a spot in the corner. He laid down and took his pistol out of it's holster, gripped his finger around the trigger and fell asleep with it on his chest.

(Think I'll do the same... minus the gun on my chest Night)

((night))

Yelena sighed. The transmission was bounced around, she couldn't pinpoint it. So she tried to see if she could call the number back. That lead nowhere. She tried running the voice to see if she could match it to anything.

X slept restlessly through the night, but that was an every night occurrence. He hadn't slept sound since the night that everything happened...since the night he became the un-named bounty hunter.


Finally he woke up wit a start, a slight hollor or grunt...almost like a battle cry. Not scared but fierce and angry. Before he knew it he had fired a round of five shots into the side of the bunk room wall.

"Good thing that Jaden kid stayed in the cockpit," he mumbled to himself. There were only two crew quarters. Mens and womens. At this point he just assumed Roxas was sleeping in the women's quarters.

"I'll have to settle myself into the supply room. As naive as that kid is he'd wake me up and get himself killed."

X got up and started down the hallway to the supply room.

Yelena was still in her ship, having fallen asleep at some point waiting for her systems to catch anything of use on the Gamer, leaving all the lights on. And as calm as she seemed, it could not be said for her dreams.

X settled into the supply room and waited for morning. By the time it arrived he headed out to the cockpit to check on Jaden.

He found him asleep in the pilots chair, but with a program running to sound an alarm to wake him if the slightest deviation in ship systems took place, if they went off course, or if anything unexpected was sensed on the radar.

Yelena suddenly bolted awake. The echoing harmony of screams and fire still echoing in her head. Rubbing her eyes and ears, Yelena looked at her consule, hoping to see anything, realising she had fallen asleep. Of course there was nothing. So reluctantly she got her things back on, excluding her jacket, gloves and holster, leaving her hair loose. Once ready she grabbed some food and headed out and towards the cockpit.

With a little bit of stiring around by X Jaden woke with a jolt. "Oh, hey," he said, sitting up. "I had it all under control."

"I can see that," X said with all seriousness. "That's good."

Yelena yawned as she approched. "So you can't tells us where we are then, right?" She asked, nodding to X in greeting.

X nodded back, noting Yelena's casual look. She looked good with her hair down, he thought. He looked back to Jaden for the answer to Yelena's question.

"We are only 3 parsecs away from our destination," Jaden said with confidence. A few buttons and a swipe on the screen and Jaden zeroed in on their exact location in space and their estimated rout to the planet. "I might not be hardened fighters like the two of you but I do know how to handle a ship."

Yelena leaned in to look closer at the screen. "Good. If your hailed as we approche, tell them we're making a delivery for S'aul." She told Jaden. "They shouldn't ask any more questions after that.

Jaden gave Yelena a glance but said nothing and flew ahead. As the group expected they were hailed upon approach.

"We have a delivery for S'aul," Jaden said.

"Understood," the man replied. "Continue on."

Once they were past the planetary authorities X stepped back and pulled his pistols, checked their energy levels while glancing over at the windshield as they made their descent.

"You really think you will need those?" Jaden asked.

"I always need these," X replied. "Whether I have to use them... time will tell."

Yelena left the cockpit after giving the instruction to Jaden. she silently went to her ship and got the rest of her outfit. And before she left it, she made a quick copy of what she knew about the Gamer. As well as making a messgae asking that it be looked at, the reciver owed her a favor. And contact her if they could find anything. Then she headed back, arriving again just as they passed through and X checked his guns. "Jaden, i assume you won't be leaving the ship?"

Jaden looked back at Yelena. "Um...I don't know," he shrugged as if he had not even contemplated the fact.

"It would be best if you stay with the ship," X broke in. "We might need a speedy get away and for that we need someone in the ship with it running and waiting."

X finished checking hsi weapons and re-holstered them. "Besides..if we get into any trouble I don't know how much I can trust you to survive a fight."

"Hey!" Jaden said, "I've been in my fair share of fights..."

Yelena crossed her arms. "Uh huh. Sure you have." SHe told him. "But X is right. Stay with the ship." She told Jaden as they headed to their landing area.

Jaden just glared and turned back towards the ship controls. He glided the ship in for a gentle landing and maneuvered her skillfully into the hanger.

Once the landing gear was down X headed towards the exit.

Once they landed Yelena looked out the window. "Someone will call. They will ask about a delivery. Tell them, just to the right. They will know what you mean." With that, Yelena left to catch up with X as they left the ship.
