Nickels and Nails

[Leo]

Buffalo sat still and silent in the void of space, the only thing that kept Nails sharp was the constant lightning blasts inside the Badlands that kept him aware of his surroundings. Sensors were non-functional, so he kept a very sharp eye out to the area around him, anyone could come out of the shadows here.

"Buffalo isn't responding to my requests to dock...and I'm not reading ANYTHING near my ship." Nickels said interupting Nails' thoughts.

"I noticed that too, try Buffalo one more time, maybe they'll let us dock."

Nails heard the transmission sent to Buffalo and the doors opened on both sides of the station with out any confirmation from the station that they had been allowed to enter. Nails looked at Nickels in his ship and he looked back to Nails and shrugged.

"Could be a trap." Nails said aloud.

"He wouldn't trap us like this." Nickels replied. "He's family."

"Family may be family, but black sheep aren't really considered 'family'. If you remember correctly-"

"-I know he turned Rogue and betrayed his own brother, so what. Greed changes people, you and I are prime examples of that."

"We didn't turn Rogue."

"For Pete's sake Josh, we stole two f***ing fighters for honored war veterans. You really think we havn't turned 'Rogue'?"

Josh sighed and looked over at his brother again who had a look on his face, almost to say You're an idiot.

"Fine, we'll dock, but keep your wits about you, I don't like the feel of this...it's too abandoned and dark...but I'll go along with it. Make sure you're armed before you get out of your ship and have the gun at the ready, I don't want to be surprised."

"Right, lets get this done."

The two fighters manuvered to dock with Buffalo and dissappeared inside the station.
