"You can't go out there alone. I know what it's like out there. You'd be dead in an hour."
Jacob began following her to the Legionnaire HQ. He cut in front of her, stopping her in her tracks.
"I'll go with you. I know how to survive the Outback. But, we need to prepare. First, we cannot wear our Legionnaire uniforms. That is just asking for trouble. Second, we need weapons. But, not Legionnaire weapons. I know where we can get others..."

Alex was sprinting across the complex. Shotgun in hand, he rushed around a corner-
Beep beep beep.
Coming face to face with one of the robbers, he smashed the butt of his gun into the man's face-
Beep beep beep.
Alex opened his eyes. His alarm clock was blaring as he stumbled out of bed, a headache stomping through his brain. He walked to the medicine counter in his bathroom and took an Advil, the throbbing in his skull reducing to a minor pulse. He went back over to his closet, pulling on a set of clean clothes.
He looked back to the alarm clock. Late. He ran out the door, around the corner and down the stairs. Exiting the complex, he ran down the street and around a corner, pushing a man aside.
HQ was in the distance now. He kept running, stopping next to two Legionaires discussing something. He leaned against a wall a couple feet away, catching his breath.
Having steadied himself, he turned to the two. "So, what's going on?"

Sally followed Jacob away from the other Legionnaire. after walking down the streets of the city they took a turn into and alleyway behind an old factory. "Jacob I thought we had agreed to no more visits especially with a stranger." A voice said behind them as a man stepped out from the darker part of the alley.
Alex eyed the two as they walked away. Maybe I'll follow them, he thought. They're up to something.
He began to walk, staying about half a block away at all times. He was almost caught twice, but he managed to stay out of Sally & Jacob's eyes.
Eventually, he found them in an alley. Peering from around a corner, he listened in.
A mysterious man chimed in. "Jacob, I thought we had agreed to no more visits! Especially with a stranger..."

"I know, but this is important. I need some supplies."
"Supplies? I thought you were a Legionnaire now. Why would you need things from me?"
"I need supplies off the books. Can't let my boss know about this."
The man grinned knowingly.
"I guess we can arrange one more venture. For old times sake. Come inside, quickly."
The man motioned the two Legionnaires inside the old factory. Inside were crates, stacked ceiling high. All of them contained various assortments of items, food, weapons, miscellaneous goods. The man looked back at Jacob and Sally.
"Aren't you going to introduce me to your lady friend, Jacob?"
"Right, sorry. Sally, this is Jack. He's an... old friend, from times past."

Alex's eyes widened. What are they doing with those?
He pulled his head back from around the corner. What should I do? I mean, they're my comrades, but stil...

"Right nice to meet you. But let's leave it at that the less I know about this the better." She said to Jack. He chuckled I like her. But if your after weapons, then something must be happening, something that may require you to leave the city?" he asked Sally. She just stared. I'll take the silence as a yes. I have a friend who'll be able to help you with transportation." He said puling out a phone. "It's me...Yeah I got a couple of people here who need a car...yeah I'll send em over."
He turned to Sally and Jacob "Alright After you get your weapons and armor, head down a block or two to a warehouse my friend will meet you inside. He said leading them into a back room. Inside all manners of guns and armor waited for their choosing. "On the house, for old times sake." He said with a grin.

"Thanks buddy. I'll think of a way to pay you back for this."
Already having armor, Jacob scanned the weapons crates. A particular item caught his eye. An old Austeyr AUG assault rifle. Still in pretty good condition.
"Damn, Jack. Not even the Legionnaires have these. Former Australian military, if I am not mistaken. You and your boys have been busy, haven't they?"
Jack simply smiled and nodded.
"I'll take it. See anything you like, Sally?"

Sally looked through the room looking for a couple of guns she liked. "Sure, just looking for something that I'm familiar with. Ah here we go." She said smiling picking up a revolver. "S&W model 10, used in U.S. military up till Nam. .38 caliber, good condition, I'll take it." She said grabbing a holster and a rifle "and the M&P15 rifle." She said slinging it over her shoulder by the strap. "Thanks Jack, your secrets safe with me."
"Don't worry. I know it is."
With those parting words, Jack exited the building, lost in the crowds of the hectic city.
Jacob placed the Austeyr in a case, and exited the warehouse into the alley with Sally where the two of them entered.
"Okay, now to the garage. Where did he say to go?"

Now or never.
Alex walked calmly around the corner, coming face-to-face with the two. His hostage-negotiations training came back to him.
Keep calm, show no signs of aggression.
Alex looked from Sally to Jacob.
Speak in a non-threatening but demanding manner.
"So," he said, "is this the 'nothin' much' you were talking about?"
