True leap to his feet, pulling out his sword with the hiss of sword against leather as Sky roughly pushed Jerome's blade away from his own, rolling back and landing on his knee. He glared up at Jerome, who snarled before he swiped his ax at Sky once more. Sky rolled to the side, leaping to his feet as he swung his sword at Jerome, fast as lightning. "Stop it!" Mitch cried as he tried to run toward the fight, but Ty held him back as True looked for an opening to get into the fight.

Jerome's and Sky's blades locked once more, pushing the blades against each other as each tried to overpower the other. A few moments passed before Jerome suddenly roughly punched Sky in the stomach, making the ex-Commander gasp as he stumbled back and fell on his back. He tried to reach for his sword but Jerome kicked it away, and instantly True was running toward them. Jerome turned around just in time for their blades to connect, but instantly his ax was thrown from his hand and True kicked him in the knee, making him fall onto his other one.

When he looked up True had the thin, razor sharp end of his sword pointed at the Bacca's throat. Jerome snarled as True stared down at him through glowing, narrowed eyes, sneering bitterly. "Don't you just hate it when an alien stops you from killing someone?" He said, and Jerome snarled in reply before Mitch ran from Ty and grabbed Jerome, yanking him back from True's blade.

"Stop it! They don't mean us any harm Jerome!" He barked, and Jerome growled louder.

"Does he even talk?" Sky coughed, and Jerome glared at him.

"Fuck you." Jerome's voice was gruff and low, like a voice version of a growl. Sky rolled his eyes.

"What great first words." He said, Ty helping him stand. Mitch glared at Jerome.

"They were chased from New Mine City by some BladeDancers, Jerome! They're good!"
"Oh yeah?! How do you know they aren't killers?!"

"They just aren't, okay?! That's Sky Does Minecraft!"

"Pff, they're lying."
"No, he looks just like he does in my book!"

Sky furrowed his eyebrows, looking up. "What book." Mitch looked at Sky.

"I have a book, kinda like a storybook with the way its laid out, with the history of you and your Army, sir! My grandpa gave it to me, I know all about you. Well, everything the storybook tells me..." Mitch said, smiling a bit shyly before he glared up at Jerome. "They're staying with us, its nearly night and we owe them for your little stunt!" Jerome looked at him angrily.

"They are not staying with us!"

"Yes they are!"

"No!"
"Yes!"

"No!"

"YES, AND YOU'RE SLEEPING ON THE FLOOR TONIGHT."
"WHAT?!"

True raised an eyebrow as Mitch shoved Jerome away, starting to leave the clearing as he gestured for Sky and everyone else to follow. Ty glanced at Sky, who shrugged before they started to follow him. Jerome snarled, standing and roughly pushing past Sky. They glared at each other before Jerome ran to Mitch, striking up another argument. "Are they married?" Ty asked as they followed a few feet behind him.

"They sure are acting like it." True smirked as Ty snickered. True glanced at Sky.

"You alright man? That punch looked really painful."

"Eh, nothing I can't handle."
"If you say so."

Sky glanced at True and hesitated, before he sighed. "Thanks. Y'know, for saving me." True just shrugged.

"Anyone would have done it." He said, and then thought to himself; Though I only did it because its my job. I can already tell this isn't going to be easy. He shook his head before they suddenly came to a small clearing, and nestled between two trees was a small cabin. It was a bit rundown, with plants flowering around it and overgrown bushes on each sides of the steps, but it looked cozy. Mitch smiled at the three.

"Welcome to our home! It doesn't look like much, but its actually pretty warm." He said before he walked up the steps, opening the door. The five males entered the house, which had three rooms. One door was closed, while the other two had open doorways with no doors. There was a living room like area with a rundown couch and an arm chair, while the other room was a bedroom with a double bed and a torn up nightstand that had a lantern on it. Jerome walked over to it and lit it as Mitch closed the door. "We don't have a lot of room, so me and Jerome will take the floor, you guys can decide who has the couch and bed and chair and such." Jerome glared at Mitch.

"Mitch, if you sleep on the floor you'll get sick!" Mitch smirked at him.

"Fine. I'll share the bed with who ever takes it." He said, and Jerome growled louder.

"I can take the couch!" Ty said, and True shrugged.

"I'm used to falling asleep in hard cold chairs, that armchair will feel like heaven to me." He said. Sky sneered at Jerome.

"Guess I'll be taking the bed."

Jerome had to be restrained by True to stop him from strangling Sky.
