The MSV Maverick slid home into the docking port that had been set aside for its landing. The Reapers hadn’t made it to the serpent nebula yet so the planet Bekenstein hadn’t felt the effects of the war just yet. Jack started the power down procedures while Sarfan did quick inspections on their guns.

“Are you sure this information is accurate?” Sarfan asked

Jack shrugged as he unbuckled himself from the pilot seat. “Don’t know. But its worth a look. The E-mail from Captain Drake said his arms dealer friend often got supplies from here.”

“But this Donovan *Breath* Hock guy is dead.” Sarfan said, putting his shotgun on his back and picking up his other weapons .

Jack nodded. “yeah, Sheppard killed him almost a year ago.” He said. “According to this weapons dealer, Hock had stashes of weapons hidden in his estate. He was an arms dealer himself and he did business out of his estate here.”

“You’d think someone would have *Breath* bought the estate by now.” Sarfan said.

Jack put his gunbelt on and slipped his sniper rifle onto his thigh where he liked it. “That’s the beauty of it. Hock was wealthy and the estate is valued at over a million credits. He had no family or friends or living will so the estate is going to be auctioned off. Until then, it’s closed down to the public while inspectors go through an estimate it’s exact value.

“So the most we have to worry about *Breath* are some no-name inspectors.” Sar said.

Jack nodded. “Yep. We’ll get our hands on as much as we can, load the Maverick up and get the supplies to someone that needs them.”

“For a price.” Sar said.

Jack nodded again. “Sure, for a price. God forbid we help the galaxy out of the kindness of our hearts.”

Sarfan put his flamethrower onto his back. “I don’t care what your god forbids. *Breath* I forbid it.”

“I *Breath* Don’t *Breath* Believe it.” Sarfan said, looking up at his surroundings in amazement.

Jack tapped his partners back with his knee. “Believe it buddy, it’s the mother load.” He said as he stepped out in front of Sarfan.

Donovan Hock’s secret basement was an immensely impressive sight. Jack and Sar had been worried when they first entered the space and found it full of stupid art and historical artifacts. When they moved into the next area though their worries and doubts vaporized instantly.

There were pistols, rifles, combat mechs, vehicle parts, vehicle mounted weaponry, grenades, specialized ammunition, high explosives, you name it. Crate after crate in a huge warehouse facility under this dudes house.

Sarfan pointed towards a distant part of the warehouse. “Is that a *Breath* Mako?”

“Sar, start an inventory. I’m going to go get the Maverick ready.” Jack said, stepping back slowly. “We might have to make one or two trips.”

A small and very subtle metal ball rolled toward Sar and Jack, a droid of some kind. It remained hidden, and popped out when they were facing the other way. When it opened up darts with long points were shot up at both of them, aiming for Jack's neck and Sar's mid section. These darts were laced with a sedative intended to knock them out.

As Jack turned to walk away darts flew towards him and stuck into bottom of his jacket. He walked out of the hidden basement with the needle harmlessly stuck to his jacket but totally unaware that the needle was still stuck there.

It wasn't until Sarfan was struck that either of them was aware they were even under attack. The needle came at him and his kinetic barrier flashed on to deflect it. His kinetic barrier sudden activation caused Sarfan to immediately draw his shotgun and fire off a shot in the direction the attack had come from.

Jack pulled his pistol and pointed it in the same direction. "What was that?"

Sar racked a new round into the chamber and scanned for whatever had launched the attack but didn't see anything. "I don't *breath* know. Whatever it was though i bet *Breath* wasn't just a home inspector."

Jack held his pistol up and scanned left and right with it. "Come out! Whoever you are! You placed your bet, it's time to show your cards."

"Don't be hasty..." A machine-like male voice responded. Red lights were flashing on the droid, and the beeping was increasing in speed. It rolled out into view like this, giving the tell tale signs that it was going to explode. "I'm in control...You guys don't even have cards..." It told them. The terminology it it was using, "guys", "hasty", were tell tale signs that it was being used as a host for the voice of an organic race, as opposed to an AI.

"What an elegant and well thought argument. Sar, would you like to give our counter argument?" Jack said.

The Volus looked up to Jack and then down to the robot. "I most definitely do Jack." He said and then squared his body off to the droid with his shotgun leveled at it. He paused for a moment and took one of his long respiratory breaths. "Bite me."

Jack's hand tightened around his pistol grip. "I couldn't have said it better myself."

"Fine, you win." It told them, in the same rusty male machine voice. The device stopped beeping, shutting off. "Don't shoot...It's just a decoy droid." Called the voice of a young female. A gun was kicked out in front of them, her only weapon aside from her teeth, should she wish to actually bite Sar. Suddenly she popped out her head from behind a crate, raising her hands in the air. She was just a kid, definitely not older than seventeen. Her hair was short, and very blond, her eyes wide and blue. She didn't have the look of someone who's killed before. Her trick hadn't worked, and now she had two possibly angry warriors who weren't gonna bite. The young girl had on a Cerberus jumpsuit, leather, with the logo on the sleeve and a larger one on her back. The beans were spilled now.

"Um...Hi." She said, smiling sheepishly at them.

Both Jack and Sarfan tracked their guns to the new target as she came out of hiding. Jack had his pistol up and was aiming down the sights. "Got her?" He asked.

Sarfan nodded once, keeping his shotgun on her. "Go for *Breath* it."

Jack holstered his pistol and knelt down to pick up the gun that had been kicked towards them while Sarfan kept the girl covered with his shotgun. Jack ejected the thermal clip from the weapon and then broke it down into it's parts and let the parts fall to the floor, ensuring that no one could use it immediately without putting it back together again.

"What are you doing here." Jack asked the girl. She wore Cerberus colors, but Jack didn't really care. He was more surprised that he and Sar weren't the first persons to this site. He was under the impression that Donovans stockpile was a close secret for the time being.

"Are you kidding? I'm trying to locate something..." She told him. A smirk crossed her cherry lipstick-covered lips, as she heard a door open in the distance. One of her hands moved down a bit as she brushed the hair out of her face, and put it back up into a surrender position. "I don't care about these weapons, but Cerberus probably does. For your own good the two of you should leave, Foxtrot Sector will be back in less than seven minutes."

"We're already here, Nadia..." Replied the voice of a grizzled man with black hair and shaggy facial hair. But his most defining feature were his eyes, mechanisms twisted and turned inside them, and glowed a little bit, and they were the deepest most perfect blue. He stared right into Jack's, and he smirked at the man, before looking down at the Volus.

"A Volus warrior?" he asked, as his troops walked in behind him, twelve of them, some of them had shields and some of them didn't, but all were adorned in white Cerberus armor. The ones with shields had them on their backs presently, while the lighter infantry carried their guns but rather casually, not pointing them at the intruders. Gustoph himself presently didn't seem to have a weapon, at least not one that could be seen.

"Orders, Director?" The Captain of the squad asked. "Wait." Gustoph told him. "I'm curious...who are you two? What are you doing here?"

"Foxtrot sector can kiss my ass." Jack said to the girl.

When the others showed up the pair stood still but Sarfan still had his shotgun pointed squarely at the girl.

The man in charge said "Volus Warrior?" Sarfan tightened his finger on the trigger almost to it's termination point. "A Human *breath* vagina?" he said.

Jack snorted. "We're here for the equipment in this warehouse. Namely, the mechs and whatever heavy weapons there are. However much of it i can fit in my ship. Not sure if you've been watching the news, but there is a war on. This stuff isn't doing any good locked away in a dead guy's basement."
