"Yeah I'm still not sure why we kept you around." Mercy smirked

"Pfft. Yeah, you're welcome." Rick laughed.
Joan and Cyrus were outside trying out Joans Enforcement-quality weapon, having a great time as they talked stats and took turns shooting it at a target. Joan also brought out the machine gun, though she didn't shoot it. The two of them were discussing dollar figures for how much they could potentially sell it for when a young kid came up to them. "Uh... scuse me. You are some of the Reckoners, right?"

Cyrus glanced at the kid. "Yeah. What's up?" He seemed a bit confused, but he knew the kids were used to send messages for Epics here, which was actually something that might happen now.

"Rook told me to tell you that Bug saw Nightmare beating up Techno, and if you want to see the kid in action you best hurry over there!"

The kid gave a location, and it was far - like the other side of town far.
"Shit, we've got to hurry if we want to make it in time." Joan looked to Cyrus.

"We can head over there ourselves. We're not one of Liam's targets, and we can handle each other. We'll let them know what happened over the radio on the way, come on. Thanks, kid." He headed off.

"Just doin' m'job!" The kid waved and ran off.
Joan and Cyrus made their way as fast as they could, but about three blocks away a screen on an old electronic billboard flashed. It was the same text they had seen on the TV screen a few days earlier.
Go left.

Cyrus glanced at it and did as he was commanded, though some part of his brain was wary it was a trap, he was fairly certain that they didn't need much in the way of traps.

Stay left.
Bug kept them left and moving further and further from their destination for about five minutes before changing his message.
It's safe to go back now.

You were too slow.
Nightmare completed his objective.
I directed you away from his path.
I'm sure you don't want to run into him again.

Cyrus sighed. "No, I don't. Thank you." How they could have been faster, he wasn't sure, but he headed back in the other direction again.
