23 Cleaning House

"I want a steak, 3 burgers, fries, and one of those large cokes with ice!!" Brick shouted, pointing at a few things on the menu in front of him. "Is that all?" Kane asked, wondering how he turned into a fast food joint.

When he woke up a few hours after passing out drunk, he was delighted to see a still naked Angel who was tied to his bed, but Maya wasn't there. Worked for him. He was too tired to deal with both women, so just having Angel be there was more than enough for him.

"Rise and shine." Kane said, rolling over so he was on top of her, giving the ball gag in her mouth a quick peck as his hands began to move around with a mind of their own.

She was a little upset that he woke her up just to fuck, but forgave him rather quickly as her breathing intensified, and of course after he untied her.

After that, Kane went and ate some breakfast before showering up and going to take stock of what was going on in Paradise since he was gone.

It was only a few hours after breakfast that he got a call from Brick, who wasn't too happy at having been left out of dinner, but Kane hadn't had dinner himself, so Brick couldn't get too mad.

He still had to make it up to him however, and once he promised the man lunch and dinner today, it seemed to appease him, though Mordeccai got to tag along as well, but Kane didn't mind.

"No!! I want a strawberry sundae, chocolate cake, a Rootbeer float, and then whatever Mordy's having!" Brick said, rubbing his hands together in excitement.

Looking over to Mordeccai, Kane saw him staring intently at the menu in front of him. "You know, I'll just get what Brick's having!" Mordeccai finally said after a minute of not saying anything.

"Sure thing." Kane said, making all of the food appear on the table in front of them, making Brick's eyes go wide with excitement.

They only admired the food for all of 2 seconds before digging in, and Kane was honestly a little shocked at watching Brick eat. It looked like Brick literally inhaled the whole steak without even stopping for a bite, which was cool and gross at the same time.

Mordeccai chose to give his steak to Bloodwing, while he in turn ate the burgers and fries, but he didn't look any less excited than Brick, though he didn't eat nearly as fast.

"So what are you guys gonna do after lunch?" Kane asked, making a little small talk as he munched on some fries. "We're going with you to kill bandits, remember?!" Brick said, pausing just long enough to say the last word before he bit into his burger.

"Oh yeah. I guess we could. I can even bring Rufus and the others to see how they've been coming along." Kane mumbled out, surprising both Brick and Mordy.

"Who are they?!" Brick asked, sounding like some jealous ex-girlfriend. "Calm down, Brick! They're pets!" Kane said, calming Brick back down to zero. It's like he was worried Kane was seeing other friends on the side, even though the thought of it was a bit ridiculous.

"Oh, that's cool!" Brick said, then stuffed a handful of fries into his mouth.

Once lunch was over, Kane told the women in the base that he was leaving to go kill some people, and unsurprisingly, none of them were interested in slaughtering a group of psychotic cannibals.

"Their loss!" Brick said, feeling anyone would be lucky to get to kill a group of people with pleasant company.

"Get any new women to come live with you while you were gone?" Mordeccai asked jokingly, it having been a running theme since the last time they were here and seen how outnumbered Kane was compared to the women.

They knew about Luna, Maya, Tannis, and whatever the hell you wanted to call Radar, but they thought that might have been it for Kane. So you can only imagine the looks on their faces when Kane did confirm that he in fact had gotten another girl to come live with him.

"What the fuck, man?! Are you trying to build your own hell?!" Mordeccai asked, sounding as though he thought Kane had gone mad. I mean it was just him and now 5 women, if you counted Radar, which they did for the most part.

"No, I'm just not a fan of the whole sausage fest thing you guys are into." Kane said seriously, staring blankly at Mordecai. He almost broke down laughing though when Brick moved a step away from Mordy with a raised hand.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa!!" Brick started, raising a finger towards Mordeccai before adding, "I'm way out of his league!! Plus he ain't got tits! Big deal breaker for me!"

Kane didn't know what to say to that, and it seemed Mordy didn't either. It looked like he wanted to say something, but ultimately thought better about it before heading towards the exit.

Kane didn't even want to know what Brick would or wouldn't get with, so he opted to stay silent as he followed after Mordy.

"So what's her name?" Brick asked, coming into step beside Kane.

Looking over at Brick out of the corner of his eye, Kane wondered if he should tell Brick Angel was here. After all, Brick did threaten to rip her spine out through her mouth if he ever got his hands on her, and Kane wasn't so sure he wanted to see if Brick was serious about that or not. Cause he most certainly was.

Kane contemplated telling who it was for a good minute before he shrugged his shoulders then answered, "She's the woman who lied to you guys about what was in the vault. Her name's Angel by the way."

Brick stopped mid-step, hell even Mordy who was a good 20 feet ahead of them stopped, whirling around to look at Kane.

"Where is she?" Brick asked, far too calm for Kane's liking.

"Brick, she was forced to trick you. She was a slave when I found her. If either of you two touch her, you'll never be allowed here, and I won't ever get you food or drinks again." Kane said, getting a low grumble in response from Brick.

"You serious?" Mordy asked, frowning as he was contemplating the new information. "Yes I'm serious! Look, I don't expect any of you to actually like her, but you sure as hell ain't gonna torture or kill her! Okay, Brick?!" Kane said, glaring at the big brute.

Brick looked to be fighting with himself, but ultimately he did agree to not kill her. "FINE! But you owe me!!" Brick stated, acting like a little kid who was throwing a tantrum.

Brick didn't get the chance to react before he was kicked in the back of his leg hard, bringing him to one knee, at which point a blade was put to his throat while the barrel of a pistol was pointing at the back of his head.

"I wasn't asking, Brick! You're my friend, and I'm more than happy to do stuff for ya, and even get you some things you probably couldn't get on your own, but it's not up for negotiation on whether or not you can touch someone under my protection. If we weren't friends I'd already have killed you." Kane stated as he put his weapons away, then offered Brick a hand, which got immediately crushed by Brick's grip of death.

"Sounds good." Brick said, smiling happily at Kane before he let go. Kane figured it was kind of fair given how he did just kick Brick in the leg, but it still hurt like hell.

Mordy meanwhile stayed quiet through the whole confrontation, simply nodding towards Kane as both he and Brick caught up to him.

The awkward silence lasted clear until the exited the base, at which point Brick turned to look at Kane before asking, "Do you know where Sanctuary is?" He actually didn't.

"Hang on a second." Kane said, pulling out his ECHO device before a holographic map of Pandora appeared. Zooming in, names of popular locations popped up, the closer he zoomed in the more detailed everything became.

Still, if he tried finding Sanctuary this way it would take him hours, which of course he didn't want to do. Pulling up the search engine, Kane typed in Sanctuary, at which point a location on the map lit up before turning red.

Looking at it, it was a little over 2000 Kilometers from their current position, way the fuck too far to glide to in a day.

"Gimme a second." Kane said, looking in his inventory for a second before pulling out a small aircraft/spaceship looking thing.

"Where did you get this?!!" Brick asked, admiring how pristine the ship looked. "I can't remember for sure, but it either belonged to some space pirate guy, or some rich asshole. He tried to kill me though, so I killed him and took his ship." Kane said, getting a laugh from Brick.

"That's my boy!!" Brick said, fully approving of Kane's actions. "Want it?" Kane asked, getting a disbelieving look from Brick, while Mordy was too busy trying to pick his jaw off the ground to say anything.

"You'd just give it to me?!" Brick asked, unsure if Kane was pulling his leg or not.

"Why not? I got shit ton of these things. Way too many people have been trying to kill me lately." Kane said, brushing the situation off. "Hell yeah!! I love it!!" Brick said, running over and hugging the landing gear.

"Hey, can I..?" Mordy asked, looking at Kane hopefully. Shrugging, Kane brought out one very similar to the one he gave Brick, with a different color pattern. "Oh, Idea!! Let's race!!" Brick exclaimed, running inside his ship before closing the door.

"I'm up for it!" Mordy said, jumping in his ship before firing it up. Pulling out his ECHO, Kane quickly called up Brick and Mordy so they were on a 3-way call, then sent them 2 different coordinates on their maps.

"I got to stop and grab my pets. Should only be about 20 minutes or so. You two can either race there or just race to the furthest mark on the ECHO. Should be about an hour away from Sanctuary on foot by that point. We'll meet up there." Kane said, getting agreement from both Brick and Mordy, who would just meet him there.

'I don't see this ending well.' Kane thought, a little concerned for the people between here and Sanctuary. Didn't matter too much though as he brushed the situation off rather quickly, choosing to instead go and find Rufus, Spike, Pikachu, Puffles, and Spot.

It had been awhile since he brought them to wipe out a gang, and this seemed like the perfect opportunity.

In no time at all he was at the place where the skags usually were, but the place seemed kind of empty, at least at first glance.

*WHISTLE!!* *WHISTLE!!*

Two loud sharp whistle noises and 5 minutes later, a small pack of Skaggs came barreling out of a small tunnel on the side of the mountain. There were a few more skags than just the five he had trained himself, and Kane wondered how big the little pack had turned into.

He waited patiently as the 20 some odd skags made their way towards him, his five elementals at the head of the bunch. There were growling, barking sounds, but Kane paid them no mind.

Once they got within 10 feet of him, he pointed at the ground, prompting his five to stop and most of the others.

2 of the smaller ones chose to continue on towards Kane, which wasn't the smartest idea as Rufus and Spike lunged forward, snapping up both of the two behind the back of their necks, then shook them hard, killing them instantly.

Kane watched on with a satisfied smile, tossing the two each a limb from some random person. "Come!" Kane ordered, and like loyal companions, the five elementals obeyed.

They let out some weird guttural sounds that made the others remain where they were while they followed Kane into a spaceship. It wasn't the Arcadia, but it was plenty big enough to transport him and the five skags.

Once they were on board, they each went to a mat that Kane pointed out, which came with fresh water and a heap of limbs with beef gravy smeared over top of them. Needless to say, Kane didn't get any whines or complaints from them.

After that, it took less than 30 minutes to fly to the meeting point, but to Kane's ever growing irritation, Brick and Mordeccai weren't there.

Unloading Rufus and the others, Kane stored away his ship before taking a quick look around. Not finding anything, Kane pulled out his ECHO before giving them a call, getting an immediate answer from Brick.

"Hey, Kane!!" Brick shouted excitedly, sounding as though he was having a blast. "Brick, where are you two?" Kane asked, mentally preparing himself for some bad news.

"We're over in Three Horns near Sanctuary! We found a few Bloodshots, so we decided to gather some intel!" Brick answered, and Kane had to run the words over in his head twice to make sure he understood what Brick said.

"So nothing bad happened?" Kane asked, hoping everything was fine. "Oh yeah!! Mordy's holding off their reinforcements while I tear these guys apart to extract the information!" Brick stated, making Kane frown for a second.

"Are you letting them answer your questions, or are you just looking inside them for information?" Kane asked, getting silence in response.

"GOD DAMN IT, BRICK!! I TOLD YOU TO GET THE INFORMATION FROM THEM, NOT IN THEM!!" Mordeccai's voice rang out, but Kane could only shake his head.

He knew not to expect too much from Brick when it didn't involve killing someone or blowing something up. "Just send me your location. I'll be there shortly." Kane said, ending the call.

It didn't take all that much time to get to their location, and Kane was happy to see that at least two of the people Brick had been ripping apart were still in a condition where he could get some information from them.

"Any other threats?" Kane asked, looking at Mordeccai who simply smiled at him, which pretty much meant 'No'.

*WHISTLE!*

Kane let out a whistle, and less than 10 seconds later five sets of glowing green eyes could be seen coming out from in between buildings all around their position.

"OH FUCK!" Brick shouted, admiring the big skags. Both he and Mordy had been told beforehand about Kane's pets, and even heard a few stories about them over lunch, but they weren't expecting these hulking beasts.

Rufus was as tall as Brick on all fours, while the others were about half his size, almost like he was a whole different breed of monstrosity. (ALPHA SKAG!!)

Focusing his attention on the two captured Bloodshots, Kane asked one of them a few questions, but got nothing in response, not even shouting, which was quite common in situations like this.

"Snack!" Kane said, pointing at one of the bandits, at which point Puffles and Spot walked over, each latching onto a leg of the man Kane pointed to.

There were some *sizzling* noises followed by some screaming, followed by even louder screaming once the two beasts moved in opposite directions, ripping the guy's legs off. He didn't die right away, at least not until Spike took a chunk out of his skull.

Looking over to the next guy, Kane began to ask him some questions, which got immediate answers. All he had to do was tell the guy he would let him go once he got the answers to his questions.

A little over a hundred Bloodshots in Sanctuary, what kinds of defenses, layout of the place, and a few answers to some other questions. Once he was done, Kane let the guy go, then looked over to Rufus.

"Sig'em!" He commanded, prompting Rufus and Spike to bolt off in the direction the man had run off to. It only took a minute or two before they could hear the man's cries of pain before the area went quiet.

"I said I'd let him go, and I did." Kane said, mostly to himself, but Brick and Mordy still nodded to it all the same. Hell, Kane didn't need to explain anything to them. Brick would have gladly ripped the guy apart, while Mordy most likely would have shot him in the head.

There was no question about what kind of man the guy was, so it's not like Kane was killing an innocent person, though they weren't too sure if that would have stopped Kane anyway.

Wouldn't have stopped Brick, but maybe Mordy might have felt compelled to let them live. Maybe.

They waited for a few minutes for Rufus and Spike to come back, then they headed off towards Sanctuary. When the town came into view, right away they noticed the towers with turrets on them, and the faint glimmer of a dome shield surrounding the place.

Didn't mean shit to Kane though.

Grabbing hold of Mordy, Kane teleported him to the top of the highest tower, providing him with the best view and an ample amount of cover.

Next, Kane teleported Brick and the Skaggs inside, but told them to remain hidden for a few minutes, telling Brick he could begin killing everyone in a few minutes, and that he would know when to move.

Leaving Brick and his pets, Kane teleported to the massive building connected to the towers and the shield, quickly killing the five people inside before they even had the chance to register his arrival.

Flipping the master power switch, Kane disabled all of the defenses before he locked up the building, then teleported, getting up high in the sky for a better vantage point.

In the center of town, Kane saw a large group of bandits hanging out, watching someone beat another person to death. It was more common than not on Pandora to see something like that, so Kane wasn't really phased in the slightest.

Deciding it was best to take out the most people as quick as possible, Kane teleported 4 bombs around the area, putting them in locations with the most people in them, then took aim at a man who obviously was in charge, if the throne made of skulls was anything to go off of.

Firing 3 times in quick succession, Kane took the man's head clean off, then pushed the detonator that set off all of the bombs around the area, killing nearly every person in the town square.

Mordeccai and Brick both acted once the explosives went off, Mordeccai raining lead into bandits left right and center, while Brick appeared like a mad demon, using a giant pointed hammer to turn people into meat paste.

Rufus and the others obviously didn't need to be told to attack, as they swept the streets, taking people out before they knew what the fuck was happening.

Rather than stopping to devour their victims like normal skags, they killed them before moving on, having been trained to eat only after all targets were eliminated. It was honestly kind of terrifying really, there being a pack of skags smart enough to move about with such efficiency.

Kane was quite proud of his little pack, loving the shit he was seeing from up in the sky. They moved along the sides of buildings in the shadows, snatching people before disappearing like ghosts.

Moving his attention around the area, Kane saw a group who were using riot shields for cover, while shielding a few people who were taking shots at Brick, who kept dodging like he knew the bullets were there ahead of time, but it was mostly just him running to a new person to kill.

Getting an idea, Kane appeared beside Brick, then teleported him a few feet above the group with the riot shields. It was bloody.

Brick hammered people apart, smashing them into the ground with their own bodies, and straight up punching people to death. One guy got punched so hard, his head disappeared into a red mist, but that was quite preferable compared to the guy who was strangled with his own organs.

That was damn near nightmare inducing.

"FEEL THE PAIN!!" Brick shouted as he picked up a guy who was trying to run away, then slammed him down hard over his knee, making it protrude through the guy's abdomen before he began laughing like a mad man.

Seeing Brick had everything under control, Kane began clearing out the buildings. It was pretty easy with the help of his five mutant attack dogs.

Say what you want about how freaky and ugly Skaggs were, but their senses were way the fuck higher than a normal dog. All they had to do was smell the side of a building to know if there was someone hiding out inside, scratch the building if there was, move to the next if there wasn't and so on.

Soon enough Sanctuary was completely cleared of all life, save Kane and his entourage, which was essentially the end goal of this mission.

"So what now?" Mordy asked once Kane met back up with him and Brick in the center of town, which was now covered in bodies, though that didn't seem like it would be a problem much longer with how fast Rufus and the other skags were devouring the corpses.

"We change the codes to the defenses before turning everything back online, then we'll look around for anything cool. Not much to do after that but ECHO Roland and the others that Sanctuary is open for them." Kane said, not having anything else in mind for this place.

"HELL YEAH!! DIBS ON THE GUNS!" Brick exclaimed, already grabbing the nearest guns on the ground closest to him.

For about an hour they moved around the town, gathering up every weapon, piece of ammo, food, clothing, carcass, and piece of technology that wasn't built into the city's operation, and of course the cash, which they all split equally three different ways.

Kane stored all of the remaining corpses that the skags couldn't eat, while Brick had a few duffle bags full of guns. Mordy put all of the food and tech in the most secured building, then locked it away.

"What are you doing?" Kane asked, wondering what was going through Mordeccai's head. After all, most of the tech was useless to him, and Kane didn't even want to know what the bandits considered food.

If past experience was anything to go by, it would just be other bandits or some poor unfortunate soul who happened to cross their paths.

"Everyone's gonna be coming here, right? I figure I'll sell this stuff off to people, get some extra drinking money." Mordy answered, getting a nod of approval from Kane.

Despite the questionability of the food, it was still something the people of New Haven would gladly eat, and any useful technology was somewhat rare in most places on Pandora.

Not many shipments of good resources ever came to this place with the reputation of its inhabitants, so most things were built out of scraps, so they never really lasted all that long.

With everything they gathered, depending on what he charged, Mordy should make anywhere between $25,000 to $50,000, and that was still on the lower end of what everything was worth, but it was most likely what he would charge considering not many people were all that rich here.

Save for Kane and Marcus, who were both filthy rich.

"So should we head back to New Haven?" Kane asked, looking over to the other two, who both looked at each other before nodding their heads.

""RACE YA!!"" They shouted in unison, then began running to their ships that were just outside the city.

Just as they were getting within spitting distance of their ships, they both disappeared from their spots, only to reappear back inside the city gates, while Kane was where the ships were, his pets already running inside his own ship.

"LAST ONE THERE BUYS DINNER!!" Kane shouted to the confused duo, who both took on determined expressions once his words registered into their minds.

Just as Mordy began to pull ahead, he fell flat on his face as something entangled his feet. "Sorry, Mordy. But it's gonna be a big meal." Brick said, running past the downed Hunter.

Brick barely made it to his ship before he felt something hit him in the ass, bringing him to one knee. "FUCK!!" He cursed, putting a hand to feel what the fuck just hit him. His hand came back covered in blood, and it didn't take a genius to figure out the origin of it.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU SHOT ME IN THE ASS!!" Brick shouted, looking incredulously at Mordecai, who was finally caught up, and climbing into his ship.

"Really? I'm surprised it took me this long!!" Mordy shouted, disappearing from view as the doors to his ship closed and began to thrum to life.

A little bullet wouldn't be enough to keep Brick out of the race, and only a second or two after Mordy took off in his ship did Brick take off in his.

While the two of them fought for second place, Kane was already in a tremendous lead, one which he didn't need to worry about. He even had enough time to swing by and drop off Rufus and the others, leaving behind a massive pile of bodies for the other skags to eat.

The good-bye was short and brief, Kane wanting to hold on to his lead in the race. He was proud of himself for getting to New Haven a whole minute before Brick and Mordy.

Funny enough, it was Mordy who had come in second, but he didn't get to celebrate his victory before two meaty hands grabbed him around the throat. It wasn't until Roland separated them and got the story about what happened that cleared up the situation.

"I can't believe you shot Brick in the ass." Roland said disbelievingly. "Really? I'm surprised he didn't do it sooner. Or that he beat me to it." Lilith followed up, getting a laugh from Kane.

The three of them told everything about the events of the day, minus a few torture scenes that they knew Roland would probably freak out about.

After that, Kane went to go find Marcus to talk to him about hooking him up with some better tech.

"Yo, Marcus?!" Kane shouted upon entering the shop, only to stop and check his surroundings when he immediately saw Zane kicked back in a chair off to the side of Marcus' counter.

"Relax, Boyo! He's right there!" Zane said, pointing behind a shelf where Marcus was standing, doing some inventory. Still not relaxing, Kane walked further inside and took a seat a few feet away from Zane.

"What's up, Kane?" Marcus asked, coming over to stand behind his counter.

"Oh, nothing really. We just cleared the Bloodshots out of Sanctuary, and I saw a perfect little building that we could deck out for ya. Heavily fortified, and it's in the opportune location for opening up a shop." Kane said, getting a smile from Marcus.

"HAHA!! I knew I could count on you! When can we go?!" Marcus said, rubbing his hands excitedly.

"I can come by tomorrow around noon. We'll get you and all your merchandise moved over in one go, then we'll give it all a wicked upgrade!!" Kane answered, getting more laughter from the old weapons dealer.

"Looking forward to it!!" Zane shouted from the side, getting a quirked brow Kane.

Seeing his questioning look, Marcus answered, "I hired him for a while. Who better to test out my new security than a professional assassin?" Marcus said, getting a chuckle from both Kane and Zane.

It was a good idea actually. Have Zane try to break in, finding all of the holes in the security, and how best to improve them all. Kane would have him do the same to Paradise, but that would involve telling him where it was, which wasn't going to happen.

Done with talking with Marcus, Kane went back to find Brick and the others, and once he did he couldn't hold back his laughter upon seeing Mordy with a black-eye.

"Can't say I wasn't expecting something like this, only I thought it would be a broken bone or something." Kane said, getting a few grim laughs all around.

"Naw, he's my friend. Plus I did sorta cheat first." Brick said, taking everything better than most people would have thought.

"Yeah, right after Kane." Mordy commented, reminding Brick of that little tidbit of information. "THAT'S RIGHT!!" Brick shouted, looking intently at Kane.

"Hey! We never discussed rules, so technically I didn't cheat!!" Kane said, defending his actions. "Whatever. Let's just eat!" Brick said, not wanting to try and get technical with Kane.

It was kinda hard to argue when he held all of the cards, plus they could only race because Kane gave them the aircrafts, so they couldn't even be upset about it.

"I can get on board with that. Especially since Brick's buying!" Mordy said, getting a happy cheer from Lilith and Roland, who decided they would eat with them as well.

"WHOA!! That was the deal between the 3 of us, not the whole Goddamn town!!" Brick stated, tossing Kane a stack of bills that should more than cover whatever he, Kane and Mordy all ate.

Kane wouldn't say it, but it was also more than enough for Roland, Lilith, and a few other people to all eat as well, but that information was for him alone. "Their dinner will be on me." Kane said, getting smiles from the Soldier/Siren couple.

Once food was all dished out, everyone began to eat while the occasional small talk was said.

"So when are you gonna start taking people to Sanctuary?" Kane asked Roland, wondering if they were gonna be able to avoid the whole Fall of New Haven fiasco.

"We gotta spread the word that Sanctuary is open for the people, then give them time to get ready to depart. Should only be a few days before we can get rolling. Using Brick and Mordeccai's new ships, we should be able to transport a few people and equipment faster than we would have been able to before, so there's that." Roland answered, making the two owners of said ships stop eating.

"I never agreed to that." Brick said, not sounding all that happy about the idea of using his new toy to help the ingrates of the city. "Me either. Not that I'm completely against it." Mordeccai said, shrugging the situation off.

"Doesn't matter. They're most likely close to being out of fuel, and I doubt you guys just have some lying around." Kane said, dousing a bucket of water on their little idea before it could even spark.

"Don't you have some?" Lilith asked, getting a blank stare from Kane.

"So what if I do? It's not like I'm just going to donate it to the people here. I had to fight for my shit, and I'm not just gonna give it away to protect some random people I've never met." Kane said, being a bit harsh, but it was more than understandable.

He never claimed to be some saint going about protecting the people of the universe, and they shouldn't expect him to either.

"You just gave away two aircrafts, what's a little bit of fuel?" Roland asked, not seeing what the big deal was.

"Yeah, to friends! And it was my choice, not because they expected me to. I shouldn't need to justify giving shit to some people and not giving it to others! It's my shit, I can do whatever the fuck I want with it!" Kane stated a bit angrily, but that was to be expected.

He had anger problems already, and he was kind of justified in this situation.

Not wanting to deal with this shit for the moment, Kane disappeared into thin air, heading back to Paradise for the night, even though it was still light outside.

"Dick move!" Brick said, completely on Kane's side in this. "Not cool!" Mordeccai stated, actually on Brick's side for once. Though he didn't see what the big deal was with Kane giving up the fuel, it was his, and unless they wanted to fight him for it, he could do whatever the fuck he wanted with it.

Back in Paradise, Kane was walking back to his room. He honestly didn't want to speak to anyone tonight, or listen to anyone else bitch or complain, and a good long soak in his own personal bathtub would do him wonders.

However that thought was put on hold when he walked into his room, and he couldn't help the smile that came across his face.

"It seems Angel got back at ya, huh?" Kane asked, knowing full well Maya couldn't respond with the ball gag in her mouth.

She was lying on her stomach, spread eagle with her limbs tied to the bed posts, only it looked like Angel had taken her time in this situation to heart, if the thing in Maya's ass was anything to go by.

She struggled to look at him, but it was difficult with her bindings, and with the gag in her mouth all she could get out was muffled sounds.

Walking over to the bed, Kane saw a piece of paper taped onto Maya's back. Reading it, Kane chuckled as his clothes disappeared. Tossing the paper to the floor, he began to do just as it said.
