Tales of the wasteland: The old, new Vegas

Tyler part: 3

The men carry Sabina into the bar, four men for four limbs. The guy that gave the orders stands in front of us with his arms crossed, his black greasy hair combed back. Honey looks at me for a few seconds, her eyes as blue as mine, standing out like a star in the sky. Her hair flaming ripple berry hair (which has grown quite a lot since i first met up with her back in New York) is tied up in a high ponytail.   Trip stands beside her with his hand on his stubbled chin. It's hard to see him with a stubbled beard because when we found him half alive in the desert he was so finely shaved, clean but now he looks dirty. He looks at Honey and she looks at him. They have grown closer ever since we got to this broken town. Before she would always turn to Miles, Sabina or I for her problems and concerns but after Sabina spilled the beans about the baby and Miles and her having those awkward memories they haven't been talking much. Her and I do talk and I know that won't change, and i always know that she will look to me for answers but am i giving her the right answers? 

I can't help but think that what i tell us to do is right or not. Most of my survival instinct is biassed off what i learnt while i was a part of the Rangers and it is clear what they did wasn't good at all. Okay i have made some good calls like coming here to Vegas. What i'm trying to get to here is maybe Honey is turning to Trip for the answers i can't seem to give her. 

"Cody!" Honey finally says. I was expecting Miles to flip his shit and basically forgive Sabina then and there but he didn't, it's interesting. Back in New York he swung a punch at anyone who looked at her wrong but now he couldn't care less. Cody turns around on his heels, Honey walks up to him, she is shorter than him by quite a bit actually, but yet again Honey was never really known to be tall. Her head ends at Cody's eyebrows. "Cody, why are they taking her?" Honey asks in an annoying voice.

"Because baby doll she aint' normal." Cody responds. Honey glances over her shoulder at Miles who is looking the other way trying to be distant. She rolls her eyes as she turns back to Cody.

"What will they do to her?" 

"Who do you think we are? Nothing, she is just getting taken to Rigs."

"Why?"

"Because he will decide if she gets to stay with you guys or not." 

Honey seems to get a little annoyed as she sighs walking towards the bar with Cody watching her walk past and then following her and gradually we all follow her in. She walks with such anger and irritation. All the men in the bar watch her, their heads slowly following her as she storms through the bar. It's like they all just freeze at her presence, like she is a queen and they are he humble servants. She keeps her head high and storms over to a guy in a suit sitting on a couch. Sabina sits across from him with two other guys beside her holding her down so she doesn't break free and flee. They seem to be having an intense conversation as Sabina looks disturbed.

 Honey stands just a meter away from them. "Rigs this wasn't apart of the deal. We said we would deal with the job just leave her alone." Honey demands.

"Wait a minuet what deal?" I ask walking forward spinning her around by one stiff pull of her shoulder. She pushes my hand off. 

"It's nothing Tyler. Just please not now!" She says again. 

"Then when? Huh? If not now when? Later, tomorrow or never?" I snap at her. Not know has been Honey's favourite word lately.

"Shut up Tyler! Every chance that we have in getting into that Strip is in arms length and I'm not letting you stuff it up." Honey yells at me. I only realise now that the noise in the bar has died down.

"What are you saying Honey?" I ask her, of course i already knew what she was saying but for her to admit what she is saying and actually mean it will make it hurt even more.

"You know what i am saying Tyler." She answers turning back around. "Look." She says to the guy in the suit. "Will you still get us those passports? I mean we did have a deal." 

He pounders for a bit. "Yes. But i'm not selling one to her." He says pointing over towards Sabina.

"Why?" Honey has her hands on her hips now, and although she isn't asking this in an angry tone she still sounds annoyed.

"Because, look at her. She is mutated. Blotchy skin, oddly coloured eyes. They won't let her onto the Strip. They don't even sell passports to mutated people, and it would be rather funny if they saw this freak walking around. Heh?" He explains. "Because you see what i'm doing for you and your friends isn't legal and could get me and all you shot. I'm not doing this out of spite, I'm doing this for you guys."

Sabina looks over at Honey who is seriously considering what he had just said. "Honey, your not seriously considering it, are you?" Sabina looks shocked. Honey turns to Trip.

"It's our best shot." She quietly murmurs to him. She turns back to the guy on the couch. "Okay. But we need a place to crash while we help you out."

He smiles "That can be arranged. Your strange friend can stay here for a while but my point still stands." He nods at Cody. The guys next to Sabina let her go and allow her to get up. She doesn't really know who to go to, after we all ignored her before i guess she doesn't know who will accept her. 

*~* 

Cody showed us to their sleeping quarters out the back of the camp. He said it's just crash anywhere. He has his own rust trailer that he sleeps in. They are a rowdy bunch of people that stay up most of the night, drinking, getting high and just talking. I sat outside at a shabby built table with Miles drinking something that burnt on the way down. Trip was talking to a group of the guys whilst he was smoking and Sabina had gone to sleep for a while. Honey had disappeared, she was with us an hour ago but she suddenly vanished. When i asked the others they said she was talking to Cody the last time they saw her. I tried to look for her but gave up pretty quick. She is old enough to look after herself. 

"What are we even doing here Miles? How did we get here?" I ask him not really knowing what i'm trying to say, but very much know that what every is in this drink is very much getting me drunk.

"I don't know man. We walked I-I think." Miles mumbles taking a swig from his drink. I know for sure Miles is very much drunk. We laugh about it for a short time and i look over across the way. I know i wasn't all together but i know what i saw. Honey was leaving Cody's trailer, Cody standing at the door bare chested with the blanket wrapped around his waste. Honey's left hand and his right are interlocked as he speaks something to her. They slowly release there grip and she walks away with him watching her until he finally closes the door. I watch her with a state of horror. We hardly know each other and she is sleeping with them? What has happened to my innocent little sister? She glimpse over at me and sees the expression on my face, she just bows her head and keeps walking.
