Viv was quiet throughout the rest of their break before they set off again, her eyes straying a few times in the direction of Hale Corp. The drive was rocky at times but the vehicle was impressive and Viv frowned at the reminder of who Tyler and Deckard got this vehicle from.<span style="color: #8080FF">"Care to drop me off at the next town?"</span>Viv finally spoke up.<span style="color: #8080FF">"I think it's time we go separate ways."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #BF0040">"Knew it. You can't handle this,"</span>Deckard gestures to himself with a smirk. It was the first time he spoke to her since last night.<br/><br/>Viv huffed out a laugh.<span style="color: #8080FF">"I wonder how Tyler can stand you."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #336666">"I ask myself the same question,"</span>Tyler remarked.<br/><br/>Sobering a bit Viv explained,<span style="color: #8080FF">"Just planning to go back to my home town. It's the only place I can go back to and hopefully get some help."</span><br/><br/>Tyler glances at Viv, she gives him a shrug. Her want for revenge was still there in her eyes but at least she could see that going back to Hale was out of her reach, for now.<br/><br/><span style="color: #336666">"Alright,"</span>Tyler said as he continued to watch the road.<span style="color: #336666">"Next stop we'll part ways."</span><br/><br/>Viv nodded and a look crossed her face as she glanced between Tyler and Deckard, unsure.<span style="color: #BF0040">"Spit it out if you have more to say,"</span>Deckard said his eyes still on her.<br/><br/>Hesitantly Viv looked to Tyler and used her words carefully.<span style="color: #8080FF"> "If you can't find anything on your friend, come find me at a town called Star Lake. I can hopefully introduce you to an informant. They'll know everything about your friend if he ever set foot in New Boise."</span><br/><br/>Tyler glanced at Viv again in the mirror.<span style="color: #336666">"Is there a reason we shouldn't go to them now?"</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #8080FF">"You have a better chance looking for a different informant,"</span>Viv replied flatly.<br/><br/>Tyler raises an eyebrow at Viv. She sighed.<span style="color: #8080FF">"I've heard and now seen what you guys are capable of, and even though you guys can take care of yourselves, I'm sure you want to avoid more trouble. This informant. . ."</span>For the first time, she looks away from Tyler and avoids Deckards stare.<span style="color: #8080FF">"Their information comes at a pretty high price."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #336666">"Like?"</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #8080FF">"Missions the same level as Hale sending you off to get Lester."</span>Deckard scoffed. Viv continued.<span style="color: #8080FF">"But you'll be on the other side. You'll have to hit a train, smuggle something into a city, or take out competition, depends on how much you show how badly you want the information. And they try to find a weakness in you to use as leverage to make sure you keep your end of any deal you make with them."</span><br/><br/><span style="color: #BF0040">"There's nothing on us to use, except for our weapons,"</span>Deckard remarked casually.<br/><br/><span style="color: #8080FF">"They'll find something," </span>Viv said quietly, seemingly to herself.<br/><br/><span style="color: #336666">"Who are they?"</span>Tyler finally asked.<br/><br/><span style="color: #8080FF">"They are the Fire Lilies, and their leader is Diana Slater: The Desert Flower,"</span>Viv spoke her voice strained.<br/><br/>Deckard's eyes widened a touch.<span style="color: #BF0040">"You're a Fire Lily?"</span>He looked her over only for his eyes to wander away unimpressed, Viv rolled her eyes in turn.<br/><br/><span style="color: #8080FF">"My life as a raider had to start somewhere other than with Lester."</span><br/><br/>________________________________________________<br/><br/>Viv looked around the stalls for a particular sniper rifle, she hasn't had any luck so far. She planned to make a trade with the few pistols she got from her escape from the Hale Corp. If those weren't enough, well, Viv glanced to where there should be a pit fighting area, where Deckard went off to. She wanted to see Deckard in action, even if it was a pit fight, but her top priority was finding a decent rifle, so she turned her attention back to the stand. In her peripheral, Viv saw Tyler move over to another stand, his eyes taking in the quality of each product. Viv wondered about what he thought of her now and what he and Deckard planned to do next.<br/><br/>With her Deathstalkers gone, and no where else for her to really go back to, Viv was tempted to try and find a way to stay with Tyler and Deckard. Problem with that was that they had their own agenda of finding their friends killer, there will be a time where they have to split up at some point, might as well make things less complicated and go their own ways now. She hoped they wouldn't go with her to meet Diana.
