Cole gave Kay a rare smile when she commented on being spoiled. "Maybe you're just fun to spoil, Kay. Don't worry about that shower, let me show you a little trick I learned." Cole placed his hand on Kay's shoulder and teleported them several feet away leaving the zombie gore behind. The rank black zombie blood and flesh stayed suspended in the air a breif moment and then fell to the ground in a splash. "Started practicing with that one right away, I wasn't about to be running around with zombie shit on me till the mission was over. Can't never be sure there will be water everywhere we go out here in zombieland."<br/>Cole was talking with Kay and watching as the Agents modified the semi and trailer when he seen Barker walking to them out of the corner of his eye. "Excuse me a moment Kay, let me see what this fucker wants. I'll be back to check on things in a minute." Cole turned and walked towards the approaching officer whom he noticed had a strange expression on his face as he drew nearer.<br/>"You did a fine job of handling things while I was incapacitated Sargent Cole but you can stand down now, I'll be taking command again." Barker looked uneaasy on his feet and Cole could see a twitch in his left eye, he knew something was definitely not right as he spoke back to him. "All due respect, I don't feel you are fit to lead and that you would compramise the mission. I won't be standing down, you still need recovery time." Barker by then had reached Cole and the anger in his expression was obvious as he put his finger in Cole's chest while he spoke with his voice raised. "You will stand down Sargent, I am in command of this mission and wil obey my fucking orders you insubbordinate son of bitch! I am your commanding officer!" Cole caught a scent from his breath and it smelled rank, it smelled like....... it smelled like a fucking zombie. That was when Cole noticed a black tear had begun to seep from his left eye that was twitching.<br/>Cole reacted immediately as the large bowie knife he carried behind him appeared seemingly from nowhere and he slashed at Barker's face. Barker acted just as quickly he avoiding the blade and hit Cole in the chest with his own suit's ability which was some sort of repelling force blast and knocked Cole backwards off his feet. Cole landed nearly a dozen feet away and manifested a Sig 9mm in his free hand as he rolled and came up firing which Barker deflected upward through the ceiling using the same repelling force. Cole was already running towards Barker as he fired the weapon and disappeared as the bullets were repelled away. Cole appeared behind Barker slicing through the back of his neck, effectively severing his spine and followed through with the short sword that had replaced his firearm during the teleport, and completed Barker's decapitation.<br/>Barker fell forward while his head rolled away and the already blackening blood poured from his decapitated body. Cole looked at the head as it rolled to a stop and the eyes looked back at him as the lips silently mouthed a curse directed back at him. Cole walked slowly towards the head and picked it up by the hair while its eyes stared at him angrily and its lips continued to curse him. Cole walked over to a barrel of old burnt motor oil and dropped the head into it before turning and only then noticing the crowd of eyes on him. He didn't say anything as he went to Barker's body and began stripping the suit, he couldn't leave the suit behind and risk someone getting hold of the suit's technology. He then stuffed Barker's suit into his backpack and stapped it once again to his back. "I never did like that fucker," he said to nobody in particular, "I say good riddance, he would have probably gotten us all killed anyway."
