Boba POV

          I was just arriving to the coordinates of Vernal hovering above the point that Vernal was last and as I was starting to wonder what was taking her so long she walks out the Roof door and aboard the Slave-1, Once she was Aboard I started flying way.

"Where are we going Boba" asked Vernal

"To investigate a lead"

"Ok, then" she responded

It was quite the rest of the flight, I personally enjoyed it by the time we got there it was nighttime I had landed the Slave-1 in the center of a collapsed building and disembarked with Vernal.

"Alright, Vernal make sure this area is clear then meet me outside of the building while you do that I'm going to take a look around outside"

She goes off to make sure that the ship is safe while I walked out onto the street and I put my ee-3 back on my jetpack holster where my gaffi stick was also stored. I swapped my visor to heat vision to look for any signs of the white fang and I end up seeing some white fang goons on patrol before they round the corner with no time to get out the way I decided too just pull out my blaster pistol and fired two shots both hitting their marks perfectly in their heads and as their body's hit the ground a ball of rose petals appears and slashes the air where the two goons were as she looked around wondering what had happened I spin holster my pistol and find a hole in the ground a couple feet away that was just what I was looking for the girl looked at me with confusion and then I asked

"What are you doing here girl?"

"I know you your the guy who was at the fight with Roman" she said while reading her scythe

"I have no quarrel with you girl, so don't get in my way"

I would signal Vernal to come down to the street

"First of all my names not girl it's Ruby and I'm not in your way I'm looking for the white fang with my team" said Ruby proudly

"So your trying to do the Job I'm being paid to do"

"What are you being paid to do" Ruby asked

"That's info you don't have the money to buy ,Ruby" I'd say as Vernal would walk up and stand behind me

"Well, you should go back to your team, me and my compatriot will deal with this. Come on Vernal" I say as I grab her by the waist and hop into the pit using my jetpack to control our decent and land in the shadows when suddenly

*C R A C K*

The cement that Ruby was standing on fell to the ground with her on top knocking her out Vernal and I stayed hidden in the shadows while two of the white fang guards that were patrolling the area grabbed her unconscious body and dragged her away.

"Vernal I want you to get on top those beams and quietly follow me while I follow them, I'm not letting a kid die it's against my honor code"

"Got it Boba" said Vernal

I quietly stalked the goons as they as I assumed dragged her to their boss who turned out to be Roman torchwick

"Well hello there Red" said Roman as Ruby started to wake

Roman had started to interrogate her while also taunting and mocking Ruby because she could not retaliate. I waited for a while waiting for the perfect opportunity to come and it did, when it came I fired my ripcord at Roman which impaled into his suit and I proceeded to pull him back sending him into the higher up beams. Then I hop out of the semi-completed building and fly towards the ground pulling out my carbine firing 3 round bursts of bolts at the 3 of the goons with my pin-point aim making a triangle formation on their bodies knowing two where behind me with another calling for backup I quickly turn around firing another burst at one goon while using my wrist blaster to hit the other two their aura no problem for the laser bolts. I proceed to pick up Ruby and sling her over my shoulder after holstering my carbine and fly off to Vernal's position and dropping her off there.
