"How many bullymongs do we have to kill again?" Nadeza asked as she loaded her Torgue shotgun again. "Wasn't this supposed to be the last one?" Crane just laughed and rolled his eyes as he walked up to her.

"We only were supposed to get about 30 for Sir Hammerlock. Not the whole pack." He said with a small laugh. "But, hey, at least we can say we did a little extra research for him."

Rolling his eyes, Armerus just spun his Jakobs revolver and sighed. "Well, at least we got this job done. Now we just need to go back and get our money. Red, Li, finish gathering what you can find and catch up. We'll start heading back, ECHO us if you need help."

"Aye, sir!" Li said with a giggle as she started to walk around the dead bullymongs and started to rummage through the bodies. A small sigh escaped Red as he started to do the same. "I'm always stuck with looting." He said under his breath. Within a instant, Li was in front of him. "Well, they see you as support, lad. You're only good with a gun that is made for long range, thus making you a support laddie." She said with a small grin as she playfully punched him. "But keep ya chin up. Things might change for ya." A small laugh escaped Red as he looked at the barrel of his sniper rifle. "Thanks. I needed that." He said with a smile. As he started to reach down, the sound of a bullet hitting a rock echoed. "Someone here." He said before quickly moving to cover, with Li slowly in tow. "Want me to ECHO them?" She asked as she sat behind him in the cover of a boulder. Getting his gun ready was the only answer he provided as he used the scope to find the source. "Damn, they moved." Red said as he checked the nearest cliff and started to look around. A small thunk came next, followed by the sound of ticking. Looking at the source, Red jumped from cover. "Shit! Grenade! Li, move!" He shouted. The loupe just looked at it and smiled as she raised a paw. As fast as it arrived, it was gone and Red just looked in awe. "I'm a serein, remember?" She said with a smile as she readied the SMG and stood. "Now, ECHO the others and cover me!" Li shouted as she charged ahead. Red just looked at the women and laughed as he quickly got on the ECHO and called for the others. Setting his sniper up, he looked down the scope and quickly dropped the closest bandit. Li just fired away with the SMG, hitting anything and everything in sight. Soon, the rest of the party arrived and quickly joined in.

"Red, why didn't you call sooner?" Armerus said as he quickly came to the red wolf's side. Pressing a button on his glove, he slammed his fist down on the snow covered ground and projected a bright yellow light shield. "You can't handle them by yourself!"

"Shut up! I had Li with me! I'm surprised to let her stay with me instead of go with you with everything you say about her." Red said with a chuckle as Armerus growled slightly. "Never repeat them! Understand?" Rolling his eyes, Red nodded. "Good. Now stay back and cover us."

"As always." Red said as he looked down the scope when Armerus charged away.

Everyone had a role to play in this ambush. Armerus was the leader, taking control of what is happening and making sure everyone knows their job. Crane was the explosive expert, making sure his grenades landed where they needed to be and go off at the right times. Nadezda was the tank and was told to either shoot or punch anything and everything that came close. Li was crowd control, making sure that everyone they were attacking was in the way of the bullets thanks to her abilities. And Red was always support, sitting in the back and saving everyone who needed it. He understood why though. Being the sniper meant you had one shot before giving yourself away if you don't have anyone to protect you. Taking one shot, he reloaded his gun and sighed as he watched his friends destroy everyone. Lining up his next shot, Red pulled the trigger and heard the click, but no bullet flew out. "Shit! Guys, I'm jammed!"

"Well hurry and fix it! We have a badass!" Crane said as a massive psycho came charging in from nowhere. Acting fast, Nady quickly disposed of her target and charged the psycho, meeting him head on in a dead lock. "Make it fast!" She shouted back as she stood her ground while everyone else was fighting off the others. As Red tried to fix his gun as fast as he could, pulling the trigger when he thinks it's fixed, only to hear more clicks and soon seeing small sparks. He was starting to get frustrated as nothing seemed to work. Everyone did the best they could to make sure that Red was safe while he fixed his gun. But that only lasted till the yellow shield started to break down and the psycho broke free of the big green vixen, tossing her to the ground. "Red! Heads up!" Armerus shouted as he looked back at the red wolf, who had no cover to hide behind. Red just looked at the charging psycho and pointed the tip of the barrel to it. Closing his eyes, he pulled the trigger and prayed that it would fire. What happened next, no one would guess. A charge came from the barrel of the sniper rifle that became a long rail-gun shot, filled with the rounds that couldn't fire. The shot tore through the chest of the charging psycho and made whoever was still alive, run for the high hills. Once the rail-gun shot was finished, the psycho stood in front of Red for a second before it's dead body slowly fell back. Red just sat there and looked at the massive dead body. "What. The. Fuck?" Was the shared respond among everyone as they looked at Red.

"Well. Looks like we found out what Red can really do with that gun." Armerus said with a small smirk as he walked over to the dum-struck wolf. "Looks like you can do more than just one shot kills. Now, come on. We need to get moving incase more are coming back." He said as he picked up Red. Slowly, he started to walk as Red looked at the tip of his barrel and saw the smoke come off of it before looking at the body again. "Holy shit..."

"Holy shit indeed laddie! You earned yourself a drink!" Li said with a laugh as she followed behind, with Nady and Crane in tow as the two largest members stayed in the back. "I guess we shouldn't joke with him anymore." Crane said with a laugh as Nady just pouted.

"But it's fun to mess with Red!" She said with a small whine as they started to head back to Sanctuary.
