Joe Ga, wearing a pair of baggy shorts and with several ice packs tied around his ribs, sighed wearily as he lay on the sofa, his head resting on Nis's lap. "Rub my head for me, I've got a bit of a headache, probably a side effect of getting shot," he said.

"We're always tied down here, and if Dragon Gecko were here, he would surely have Elephant bring a grenade launcher..."
Joe Ga held Nis's face in his hands, squeezing a smile from her lips, then shook his head and said, "We need to give the bad guys some room, or our fight will keep escalating.
"We've always had the upper hand, it's just that this time it was quite sudden. If we had prepared a bit more beforehand, would it have been so disastrous?"
