Xhen~ SON OF A HOE!

Xhen jumps in the car and scrambles to look like a presentable doctor. He put together his overalls, slid into new boots, and threw on a lab coat. He slips a coin and it lands on tails. Cool.. no drink. Might be for the better. He walks out of the caravan and sees the automobile... or maybe he should think the tank thing, was parked near his caravan. The door opens and hops out a man with short black hair but also a mullet in the back and emerald eyes. A tall individual, He wears a similar uniform to Rubi but it has 3 stars in the breast pocket and a red line going down the left arm. This signifies he was a lieutenant. A long rifle was on his back and two sawed-off shotguns rested on his waist. Xhen this new dude... Lieutenant Rekka Nazar. The brother of the young captain that he treated today, Rubi. On Rekka's shoulder was a Lemur. It has white fur and a patch of red fur in the shape of a triangle on his chest. And if Rekka and his pet are here, then HE also might. Luck wasn't on his side. Rubi runs up to her older brother and gives him a quick hug.

Rubi~ Rekka! I am so lucky you were the one that was close by! We need to talk right now. Where is Akeem?

Rekka~ He's in the Automobile. He ain't coming out with the doctor here.

Sparx~ Screech!

The Lemur that was on Rekka's shoulder jumps to Rubi's and she starts to pet it

Rubi~ Good to see you to Sparx!.. And for Akeem, that's fair actually but listen, we have to go after Cain!

Rekka~ Listen.. Baby-sis, we have to get back to the base. Rafiq isn't in the best of moods. Forget Cain. We'll get back on his and the Mercenaries' trail when you're healed up OK?

Rubi~ I appreciate the whole older brother looking out for me right now but THIS is my chance to make up for it. I am a Captain now Buckshot. And this is my chance to prove it.

Rekka~ Can you not call me Buckshot... You know I hate it. Cain can wait till you heal up.

Rubi~ Yeah cause Cain gave it to you so let's use that anger to catch him! I think Doc knows where he's going.

Xhen~ Indeed I do! Sorry for cutting in on the sibling talk. You're quite the fun brother/sister combo. Wouldn't know that from your normal hardass personalities!

Rekka felt his veins pop, by instinct and honestly anger he reached for his shotgun and then stopped himself to remember who this guy was. The Militia needed Xhen's talent, and in this case, his information. Tae appears behind Xhn and bows as she scolds her "father". She asks if he's hung over and she gets her answer when he tells her to stop yelling when Rekka and Rubi can barely hear her. Rubi lifts the book she found in the car".

Rubi~ I apologize for going through your caravan but this book; Cain would be interested in it. If I recall there was a report that he was sighted in ypnos. Where one of your labs is Doctor Xhen. So I ask if you tell me where he is going.

Xhen~ Sorry miss, I have a policy. All my patients have my word that nothing we talked about will go out. Mr. Ishihara and Miss Volkov have my complete confidentiality. Much like you all.

Rubi~ I'll get Akeem to come out of the Automobile

Rekka~ Rubi! Calm down! Even Sparx reacted shockingly to this comment

Xhen~ I'm honestly amazed by your determination Miss Nazar, but my word is my word. This is one thing no one should flip a coin for. Besides, what's the point in Akeem talking to me when it's not his own choice is pointless. Tell my Son I await his return letters. Tae is everyone taken care of?
