Ray/Jet's POV

It's been almost a year since Lydia and Victor came into our lives. They're trained and are pretty prepared for anything. Vic found a utility belt that's useful for storing his gun, a taser that Show Pony sold him for 10 carbons, some 'nades and throwing knives.

Lucky has two guns, both on hoisters on her belt for easy access. She keeps a knife in her boot. and some grenades in her pantleg pockets. She has mad strength, and actually kept Frank in a lock long enough for him to yell 'Uncle' once.

Twice.

Five times, actually.

There have been attacks here and there, but nothing we couldn't handle. About a month ago, Lydia blew up a piece of the Diner when she threw a grenade. It was really because a Drac had spotted it and thrown it back at one of the walls.

Nothing we couldn't fix though.

What I noticed is that Mikey seems to really like Lydia, but, so does Victor. I knew there was going to be trouble when they found out.

We were in the dining area. Frank and Vic were playing a game of cards. Mikey and Gerard were talking. I was playing an old riff on my guitar and Lydia was humming something.

"Hey, Ray?"

I stopped playing and gave her all my attention.

"How'd you learn to play like that? And what were you playing? I've never heard it before."

"One, just a lot of practice. And two, what I was playing was a song the guys and I were working on before the Fires."

"You guys were in a band?"

"Yep," I said, recalling the memories, "The band was called My Chemical Romance. We were just getting big from our demo and one day we heard a random guy talking about fires burning down everything. We believed him, and luckily we did or else who knows where we could've ended up."

She turned red with embarrassment, "Mikey told me about the band, but I thought he was talking about someone else. Can I hear that part again?"

"Sure you can!" I repositioned my fingers on the fretboard an played from the beginning.

Lydia started to sing.

"If there's a place that I could be
Then I'd be another memory
Can I be the only hope for you?
Because you're the only hope for me

And if we can't find where we belong
We'll have to make it on our own
Face all the pain and take it on
Because the only hope for me is you alone."

"You have a really pretty voice."

"Thank you," she mumbled.

Mikey then appeared frantically, "Let's attack Battery City."

"Why the rush Mikey?" Asked Frank, "We need a plan."

"I already have one but there's no time to let you in on it."

"I trust you Mikey," said Gerard, "Then it's settled."

Everyone cheered, we split up into groups. Kobra, Star, Lucky and I in a beaten up van that Monster Queen and Red Cocoa let us borrow; Fun, Red, Queen and Party in the Trans Am.

-----------

We got to the outskirts of Battery in a few hours. There were no Dracs anywhere. It was silent.

Something felt off, I couldn't put my finger on it though.

We rolled up to the tunnel's entrance. We were the Diversion Team. The others were the Infiltration Team, they were to wait on our signal to go in.

Star turned off the car and got out, so did Lucky. They told us to get out and we did. "You two as the most experienced, start walking to the toll booth and we'll cover you."

I nodded and started walking, Kobra did too. I heard a gun go off and Kobra hit the ground. I turned around and saw Lucky's gun steaming. Before I had the chance to react, Star took out his gun lightning fast and shot me.

I heard Lucky say, "So Long and Goodnight, Jet Star."

I saw darkness closing in on me, I let it come over me.
