Paladin Ascending Volume 3 #1: Foregrounds
**Somewhere in the United States, 10:30 A.M:"
Erin: “Morning my love. Did you sleep good?”
Ty: “Totally. Guess we did have too much fun last night baby....”
Erin: “Mhmm. We definitely did.”
Ty: “ I’ll make breakfast later...you wanna sleep a bit longer?”
Erin: “Well, probably more than just cuddling....if you’re hopping in.”
Ty: “I like it when you tease me so much".
Erin: “Keep dreaming, my sweet ninja. Definitely not now....not when we’re gonna be late. I’m just gonna go make coffee.”
Ty: “Ugh. Ok.”
I sigh in my bed, not-so-clothed and covered in sheets. Last night was probably...a bit too heavy for us at the bar. Then we started to talk....eventually making out when we got home. You know what happens next. But anyways. I’m pleased that life is good and my girlfriend is here with me, supporting my back for the last 5 months.
Never thought I’d be that lucky to chase her back since our victory against North. But 5 months worth, and it's still Paladin duty. A bit of the same old, but missions have seem to gotten harder, and whatnot.
Ty: “That’s a nice shirt. Where did you get it?”
Erin: “Bought it in town. I love the shorts as, when the new fabric feels really good.”
Ty: “It looks great.”
Erin: “Thanks. You gotta get dressed too sweetheart. And breakfast?” (Ty keeps zoning out)
Ty: “Oh right. I have the underwear....just gotta thrown on my nice pants as well.”
Erin: *laughs* “Sure, sure. Just make sure to hurry up, you stud muffin.”

(50 minutes later)
Jesse: “Damn. What’s this again? Even if it’s a double date, I feel like me and Gary are totally third wheeling...”
Gary: “Darling, it's ok, frankly. At least it works out better than all those times you had.”
Jesse: “Touché. You really know me well don't you? Who knew when these two dated we developed an attraction?”
Gary: "Yeah you've also managed to tell the story over a million times right. Literally, almost the whole team is dating."
Ty: “So guys, are we late?”
Erin: “No, we’re good sweetheart.”
Ty: “Ok. Are we just gonna walk around the mall over there? Y’all gonna take the speeders?”
Erin: “We’ll take the speeders.”
Gary: “Sure—-wait hold up a bit guys, I’m sensing something....suspicious. Just caught a guy eyeing us like we’re not candy. Targeted. Maybe check your nine?”
Jesse: “Well, could be a weirdo on the streets. Maybe he thinks you’re both hot.”
Ty/Erin: “Oh, shut up.”
Gary: “You might actually wanna take the speeders. I'm gonna keep my aura fields open.”
Erin: “Ok....that dude? You sure”
Gary: “Just some precautionary sixth sense. I’ll take a closer look. On your feet, and go do the run J.”
It seems like some action is about to take place. I activate my belt, allowing me to go at full speed, before jumping on the speeder quickly. The suspicious man takes off in another as well, as we give chase. Gary keeps using his power to keep track of his statistics. The chase takes us like 15 minutes until he starts to slow down an alley, and Jesse zaps his vehicle’s engines. He runs out and pulls out a gun from his clothes (dressed funny like a detective today, I know).
Jesse: “Who are you and why did you avoid us, especially?”
Mysterious man: “Can....cannot tell you. I am.....am....a messenger.”
Gary: “Let me check his pulse. Ok, nothing there....but his heart’s beating fast. It’s an AI.”
Jesse: “Want me to zap more? You could try hacking his brain Erin.”
Mysterious man: “No....no don’t. Do not save me...” (his speech starts to get slurred)
Erin: “Probably not when I’m looking this as well.”
Mysterious A.I: “I....I was not supposed to be spying on you....but you found me.....I cannot compute. They used me instead sent me for help.....but....”
Ty: “But who?”
Mysterious man: “A group found me....and now they converted me into something I didn’t want to be.....I....I can only tell you this....much....take this info.....before I blow up.....I beg of you.”
Gary: “It’s ok. I got ya. Let me take this into my aura field...”
Jesse: “I’ll re-wire it when we get back dear.”

Edens: “I’m sorry with this on a Saturday, but it’s urgent. You're lucky I work on weekends, but we already got ourselves a guest.”
Kurt: “I’m sorry who?”
Gary: “Why?”
Lyra: “More like what-the-f**k is going on.”
Riley: “Missions are such mood killers when we’re on our fun honeymoon.”
Kieran: “Yes dear. No rings yet, and we’re not speeding up. I suggest we wait for a while.”
Riley: “I’m tired of waiting!”
Ty: “Alright boss, tell us who it is.”
Edens: “Well, y’all gotta get ready.”
Jesse: “Ready for what? I thought we were always ready.”
Edens: “Not this time. You’ll see how it goes....”
Dusksmoke: “It’s me.”
Erin: “What a surprise.”
Sam: “Dusksmoke? What are you doing here?”
Dusksmoke: “It’s something desperate....and I need your guys’ help. Should I tell them, Remus?”
Edens: “Don’t stall too long. I'm afraid--”
Dusksmoke: “Fine, I’m gonna go head on with the topic. I’m exiled from my group...and if you guys remember what happened a year ago, back in Japan, the Yakuza are vowing vengeance, along with my assassin guild. They’re on the hunt for a valuable red katana that I lost. We don’t know who took it, but I need your help.”
Riley: “Is that all? Just for a code red?”
Dusksmoke: “No, not just yet. If you’re suspicious of who am no matter how much you trust me....it’s time I have to reveal myself.”
Everyone stares at each other, and Edens, despite his calm demeanour, looks a bit anxious. Dusksmoke starts taking off his hat and his mask. Then....we gasp.
Holy sh*t. I can’t believe it. It’s Jesse’s brother.
Dusksmoke: “My name is Connor Arden. I’m sorry if I’ve lied to everyone on who I am, hiding away behind a mask. I understand some of you might be mad at me, but I have no time to explain much about my identity and history, but I promise I will tell everyone later. But right now, I need you to trust me on this. Urgent mission details.”
Jesse: "Bro?!"
Sounds like I’m running out of sleeping pills today.
