Kailen glanced at him. "Yeah, there's a bit on my back that's hard to reach."

Rick helped him take it off. "You see why I don't like Cyrus so much?" He joked, trying to keep it lighthearted.

"Starting to. Thank you." He didn't seem to be in a joking mood.

"...Hey Kailen? Don't you think for a second I'm not going to do my damndest to rescue Josh if this goes bad just because he's not on our side, alright? I'm not Cyrus."

"Even though that means facing the guy who could murder your face?" Kailen asked.

"Hey, he can't murder my face if I hit him before he hits me." Rick answered with a smirk.

"Playing tough the day after you express your deepest concern doesn't really work, Rick," Kailen said, shaking his head.

Rick sighed. "I know. But it doesn't make that not technically true. If I can't bail out Josh when Nightmare doesn't know I'm there or that I'm even involved until I want him to, how could I possibly be able to protect everyone here?"

Kailen sighed. "Luck?" He hesitated. "But thank you, Rick. I'm sure it'll turn out okay."

Kailen breathed and tried to forget about it, to relax. "Thanks." He smiled slightly. "I know you will."

It was three days before they were planning a hit, and things had been eeriely quiet. That day, Rick went up to Cyrus. "Hey Cyrus, have you ever targeted an Epic still in their destructive phase before?"

"No. Usually we don't hear about them that quick," Cyrus said. "Usually we don't do hits on big names. We hit the small, cruel ones like Techno."

"Ok, so you wouldn't know." Rick said. "But this is weird. It's been a week since Nightmare's last attack, hasn't it?"

"Yeah, about that," Cyrus said. "Maybe he fizzed out already."
