Geo enters the bar with another Pilot in tow, and lightly punches Blaze when she sees him. “What are you doing here? I told you to stay home!”

[i]Kolbai notices you as he walks out, and walks over to you. His rusted armor has been replaced with a classy black sweatshirt, white jeans and a pair of expensive red high tops. A half face mask conceals his mouth, and the hood covers the rest of his head. When he talks it's robotic and fake, like he's using a text to speech converter.[/i] "Hey, I remember you. You're that nice lady who fed the ducks."
-
“Sorry, but she’s right over... oh son of a-“
-
"Is something wrong?"
-
“Yeah, she was supposed to stay here and not run off”
-
"Ahh, I see. Well, if you could say hi to her for me when you can, that would be pretty swank."
-
“Mhm....I need to run the place Gebo.....”
-
“You don’t! You can take a week or two off!” The other Pilot walks over. “Hypocrite.” “Oh shut up mum.”
-
“Whobs the friend Gebo?”
-
“It’s my mum. She’s been wanting to come here for a while, but never got the chance.”
-
“Oh. Well heblo.” Blaze holds out his hand, which briefly shifts to a claw before becoming a hand again.
-
The Pilot hesitates before shaking it. “Im going to assume that’s normal?”
-
“I uh....” he winces, then mouths to Geo. “Does she know?”
-
“He’s a vampire. Don’t question it, the place is weird.” After the minute the Pilot shrugs, and shakes your hand. “I’ve already seen weirder here. My name’s Gates. Yours?”
-
He sighs. “Blaze.”
-
“So do you have any idea why Geo is currently attempting to break every record we have?” Geo stares at Gates. “When we get back, I’m going to have Shelby turn you into jam.”
-
Blaze chuckles weakly. “Cause Geo is great?”
-
“No, I think it’s something more than that. She’s been beating herself up over everything lately. Just yesterday she got to the top of the leaderboard for a drill, but ran it again because she missed a shot. And then again because it wasn’t fast enough.” Geo begins banging her head on the counter.
-
“Uhm....yeah, whyb Gebo?”
-
“Do you know, how it feels to do something for your entire life, and then get shown up by someone on the street with none of your experience?”
-
“No....really...who?”
-
“That guy who told everyone who you were. I did everything I could and I still couldn’t stop him. I’m a failure Blaze.” Gates starts patting Geo on the back. “No you’re not honey, you’re one of the best we have.” “Must be a pretty low bar then.”
-
“Wha....yeah, Geo, you’re great.”
-
“Sure doesn’t feel like it. Anyone else do my job for me after I left?”
-
“I....oh yeah....Dal got him locked up.”
-
“Course she did. Perfect little Dal better than me at everything. If you don’t mind, I’m going to run more drills.” Geo gets up and starts going for the door, while Gates looks on in pain.
