Chapter 13

Trenton: Damnit, Flex!

Flex: Oh, I'm sorry that I was sayin' what everyone was thinkin'.

Fischer: You did ruin the moment.

Flex: I don't regret "ruining" the moment. Anyway, does anyone know what the fuck burnt down Vale?

Sarge: That would have been the hammer.

Flex: That sure as fuck wasn't a hammer.

Tai: You called those things in? People were still getting evacuated! Those people had families that'll never see them again!

Sarge: I understand that, but they wouldn't have made it out anyway.

Tai: What do you mean?

Sarge: There was an underground Grimm infestation. Not just the underground subway, but the beneath the whole damn city.

Ruby: He's right, dad.

Trenton: Everyone on board. We're rollin' outta here.

Flex and Fischer get in the vehicle as Trenton gets in the driver's seat and starts driving.

Flex: Ya know, I've stroked some good pussy before losing it all.

Trenton: Not now, Flex! No one cares about your sex life.

Flex: I meant the cat, jackass. He was black with a white belly. He was a good, happy bastard. Now he's gone.

Trenton: Sorry, man. I just thought you were talking about..... ya know.

Flex: I've been off drugs for over a year. I haven't had that fix in so long, now I'm sober. I can understand how you misunderstood what I said.

Trenton: Well.... That's good, man. I noticed you aren't rubber anymore.

Flex: Yeah, I went to undo what I did to myself. It partially worked. I'm back to looking normal, but I'm now able to turn into rubber at will. Only downside is that I can't reproduce. It's fine though, there's not that many ladies out there that really my catch eye.

Everyone tries to get their mind off of Vale, some finding it harder than others. Ruby then looks over at Fischer.

Ruby: You're really pretty.

Fischer: Aww, thanks. You're pretty cute too.

Ruby: Really?

Trenton: Ruby, you may look different, but you're still that adorable cookie lover we all know and love. Even though some of the villains won't admit it, they agree too.

Ruby: How come you haven't turned?

Trenton: Lucky I guess. I haven't swapped to my Grimm body for a little while. I plan on using it as a last resort.

The ride is quiet for a while. After a few moments, they stumble upon an ice covered dirt road.

Trenton: Ah shit. Another encounter?

He then drives faster to quickly get out of their current location. Trenton maneuvers T-rection around a massive ice blast. He uses the canon and fires a charged blast towards where the attack came from. As he clears a few trees, more ice is sent towards the vehicle, freezing it in place. Sarge exits the tank as ice starts covering it.

Trenton: Sarge, what're you doin'?!

Sarge doesn't answer as he heads off to find Weiss. The tank in fully encased in ice.

Trenton: Fuck! T-computer, turn the heater on to max.

T-computer: Maximum heat.

Trenton: To make you feel better, Ruby, you're in charge while I'm gone.
