15. Keep Running

Missile Kid and I grew closer as time went on. She became like a daughter to me and I loved her very much. This only made me want to protect her even more. I hated that she had to be the one to save us all, that the fate of everyone was in her hands, that she was the one to determine our victory and that every thing we fought for was for her to help us win. That was a big responsibility and a heavy weight for only one child to bear on her own.

If I could choose, I most certainly wouldn't choose this life for her. But I don't get to choose, all I can do for her now is protect her and be there for her when she needs me. That's all any of us can do for her.

I sighed getting up from the booth. That's when Jet came in. "Hey Venom. We're going out, you wanna come with?" He asked me. "Sure thing. Is everyone coming?" I asked. Running out there sounds so much better that sitting here doing nothing, just looking at the wall to pass the time. "Yeah, we thought Missile Kid might be a little bored here so we're bringing her with and we're going to teach her the basics of surviving out there. You know, how to hack one of those vending machines to get ray guns from and how to fight dracs if we run into any out there. That sort of thing." He stated while he got his things ready. "All right then. Where are the others?" I looked at him with a questioning look on my face. "They're outside getting ready. We can go if you're ready." He said while he started walking to the door. "Yup. I'm good let's go." I said as I grabbed my ray gun and mask that was on the table of the booth.

We walked outside of the Diner and I was greeted by the boys and Kid all standing next to the Trans Am. "Hey. You ready to go?" Poison asked me. "Yeah but I think I'm going to take my bike. The car is going to be a little crowded and I haven't used my bike in awhile. I really miss riding my bike." I said with a small smile. He nodded and smiled back at me. "Okay is everyone ready?" He asked looking ready to kick some ass. "Hell yeah." They all yelled in unison. I just laughed and got on my bike, pulling my killjoy mask over my face. They all did the same and Poison yelled excitedly, "Let's get this show on the road." With that everyone jumped into the car and we sped off.

I really did miss being on my bike. Riding through the wind and my hair flowing around my face. I felt as free as a bird in the beautiful blue sky, soaring through the wind and clouds. Like nothing could touch me. It's what I enjoyed most about being on my bike, riding down the dusty desert floor. They seemed to be having just as much fun as I was. They were hanging out of the windows, yelling, singing and laughing and just behaving like crazy people. That made me chuckle. Sometimes they really do act like children.

They pulled over near an old gas station. There was an old vending machine that held ray guns. I pulled over next to the car. Kobra and Kid climbed out of the car and walked over to the machine. Kobra had a small device in his hands. He hooked it up to the machine and showed Kid something on the device and after a ray gun popped out and they high-fived each other with grins spreading across their faces. Then they got back in the car and we drove off again. Not long after a van of dracs drove behind us. I started to panic but that was soon replaced with curiosity. Kid and Fun stuck their heads out of the sky roof of the car and pulled out a bazooka. Where did they get that? Fun helped Kid to aim and shoot at the van of dracs and it blew up into a ball of flames. We kept driving and parked behind some big rocks. We knew more of the dracs were coming.

As we scouted the area for dracs some of them tried sneaking up behind us from a different rock but Kobra spotted them and shot them straight in the face. Our victory didn't last long because another van pulled up but this time it wasn't just dracs that piled out. Korse climbed out with them. We were standing in line opposite of Korse and the dracs.

Ray beams were flying between us. We shot some of the dracs down but it wasn't enough. Next thing I knew we were all on the floor. The other three were knocked unconscious and I was close to it myself.

The last thing I saw was a drac holding onto Kid while she struggled and Korse saying, "Keep running."
