Nah, I m good.Listen.I needa few parts for my Lady.I need you to help me out. Lady? As in Lady Blue? Ferris whistled low. You re awarethat the Lady Blue is on the hot sheet, right?Livewire nodded, watching Ferris closely now.They may havebeen old running buddies, but he didn t trust anyone but the peopleonboard his ship.Now he knew how Ferris felt living with paranoiaall the time.It sucked. No worries.I could give two shits less about the bounty.I liveunder the radar myself. Ferris boasted like being wanted wassomething to be proud of.Livewire chuckled at his old friend. What for, you crazybastard? A little of this and a little of that.I don t have a bounty on myhead like you do, though.Must be nice. Yeah, the guy wasn tplaying with a full deck.Ferris nodded his head toward the door. Let s go get what you need so you can get the hell off of this rock.Livewire nodded and got up from his seat, heading toward thedoor.Blade and Colt got up to follow him when Ferris pulled a phaserquicker than it took to take a breath and had it aimed at the pair. Andwho might you two be?Livewire groaned.This was not what he needed right now. They re with me, outlaws like us.Ferris eyed Blade and then Colt, slowly lowering the phaser.

What do ya need, my man?Livewire was amazed at the assortment Ferris had crammed intothe back of his shuttle.There were parts there that he knew would behard to find.He turned to Blade and Colt. I hope you brought enoughcredits  cause papa needs a new shuttle. Livewire winked at the twoas he turned back to the inventory in front of him.He grabbed what he needed and handed it over to Colt as hehaggled over the price with Ferris.They finally settled on an agreedprice when Livewire s eyes widened, staring at the vehicle sittingbehind Ferris s shuttle. Whose is that? He walked over, running his hand along theframe of the combat vehicle.It was sweet as hell.It had an openframe structure, two front seats and two rear seats.It even had all-terrain tires on the bad boy.It was a beauty.They could use thisvehicle to travel when planet-side or take it out to the barrenwastelands and have so much damn fun. Is it yours? Livewire askedFerris. Yep, acquired it in a deal.Everything works. Really? Blade asked as he stepped up beside it.Livewire couldsee the wheels turning in Blade s head. What would we tell Remy? Who says we have to? Livewire winked at the coyote shifter. We could sneak it onboard. Like he would miss a buggy the size of the shuttle, hardly. We could tell him it was thrown in with the deal for Livewire sparts, Colt said as he admired it.Guys and their toys, gods lovethem. I ll give it to you for a steal, Ferris said as he stepped up next tothem, seeing how all three were practically drooling over it.Imlay s Cure 117 Is it stolen? Livewire turned and asked.With Ferris, one neverknew.The buggy could be the owner of the tavern s and Ferris wouldsell it to them. I want to see papers.Ferris shook his head as he grumbled a few things but fetched thepaper from the front of his shuttle.He walked back to them andshoved the ownership papers in Livewire s hands. Since when didyou get so paranoid? Learned from the best.Now give me a price. Blade and Coltwere already loading the parts into the back, knowing it was a donedeal.
