Kobra lays on a diner table, his shoulder bandaged from where Party shot him.

Said Killjoy, is pacing the room. His hands are balled into fists. They have to get Umbrella back.

So he can kill her.

His hands are almost as red as his hair. All he can feel is anger.

At his brother. At Umbrella. At BLI for getting them in this mess in the first place.

But mostly at himself.

For not seeing this. For letting his baby brother take the decision between him and the desert.

Ghoul and Jet are watching him, too afraid to say anything.

"We have to go get her." Poison says, stopping in front of the door.

"How?" Ghoul asks, jumping down from the counter.

"Just like last time."

¬¬¬¬

Jet drives as fast as he possibly can, with Party in the passenger, and Ghoul in the back with a still unconscious Kobra.

They're silent, the only sounds being the engine and them whipping past the sand.

The sky is going dark.

¬¬¬¬

The whip comes down on Umbrella's back again.

And again.

And again.

She can feel the blood dripping down her arms. She looks back, to see the damage, and the whip hits her eye.

¬¬¬¬

"-at all?"

"Go in. Get Umbrella. Get out."

Party loads his gun as they pass into Zone 4.

"That's not gonna happen." Kobra says, in a choked voice, "Umbrella won't let it."

"Why not?" Jet asks, looking back at him in the mirror.

"She's going to level Battery City. To get out of our deal. My deal."
