T4NG0; Bolt, answer!
B0L7; I'm at the building still.
At the end of the street, Zero waves.
Z3R0; Get down here!
B0L7; Comin' now.
I walk down the fire escape and hop down. After driving the Jeep up to them, Zero scoffs, "Took ya long enough." I scratch my head, "Think we're not doing much here, guys." Zero shakes his head, "We got a hit and run, took down a gang's enforcers."
Tango watches the Engen pawn as I shake my head, "We could be making a much bigger difference. We could
be participating in raids." Zero's eyes turn wild, "Raids are too dangerous, I mean, think of Tango!"
We both look at Tango, she smiles while holding the guy down with her boot. "I trust you, Bolt." The man tries to get up, "Fuck you-" She raises her boot and simply stomps down. I smile, "Thanks for your vote."
She grins, "You only get it if you teach me some moves." An armored car rolls up as Zero stares me down. Foxtrot marches up, "You guys alright?"
Zero doesn't look away, "We're gonna be participating in raids." She puts her hand on his shoulder, "We are too- Ok boys, let's take this scumbag to the Military Police. Oh and Zero." His head finally turns as Fox winks, "See you back at the Outpost."
Tango tugs on me, "We should get going guys." She was right, I run to the car, "Shotgun!" "No! Damn it!" She chases me around the car, as I grin. "Looks like you're in the back this time." She groans, "Fine." After getting in, I grab the radio and flip it to the marshal's channel,
"Marshal? It's Bolt." Tango springs to the edge of her seat and hovers just behind me, "You have the Marshal's channel?" *Bolt! How's the team?* Zero gets in as I push, "We actaully want to participate in raids." *What about your recruit?*

I look back, she's in my face, she crawls up and pushes, "Bolt trained me well enough, sir." She climbs back into her seat, smiling while looking at her hand. *Ok, you'll be moving out of Outpost Six today then. It's on your map. Complete your shift first, THETA.*
We turn into a gas station and Zero folds his arms, "You two go ahead, I'll pump." I hop out with a smile, as does Tango. She skips her way inside as I walk in like I own it, "Peacekeeper, 20 on pump nine!" Tango slaps down one of those taffy bar things. "Have a great day, you two."
She rips away at the package like an animal before slowly turning towards my face. "What? I have a sweet tooth." My chuckle stops abruptly as Zero gets off the radio and changes the channel back. After that, he starts pumping. What are you hiding, Zero?

The Badger Dungeon

Even a child knows what a dungeon is! A dungeon is controlled and ruled over by its Dungeon Core, a mana crystal that's gained sentience, and with it a mind just as twisted as the home that it makes for itself. Dungeon Cores all have very simple wants and needs: to expand and to devour, and to that end, they'll do absolutely everything and anything within their power. Everyone knows that. Sometimes, though? Sometimes the Dungeon Core doesn't know that. Sometimes they wake up all alone, confused and with no clue what they should do, and find themselves quickly becoming the home to a family of badgers and other creatures. The Dungeon Core can be left struggling to figure out their role in the world and how exactly they're supposed to achieve it. They're really doing their best, and you shouldn't judge them for it! The badger thing was a complete mistake but there's just no way they can turn back and fix it so they're just trying to make do, okay?! What would you do in their situation?!
