Dark laid on the ground panting heavily as she looked up at the grate. The man had gone into open area which was bad for him, because that gave her free rain to the sky. Her only problem was getting up. She laid there for a moment more before forcing herself up. She gathered up her weapons and made it up to the street. Looking for the highest building she proceeded to make her searies of jumps to the top. Extending her wings she turned around and jumped off letting the wind pick her up. She circled a bit until she found the man. He was heading straight for the factory. If he got inside she would lose him and the money, and that would be bad on account of Bishop's reputation was riding on this.
Moving in the direction of the man she was reluctent on attacking from the air, but it was always her best option. Retracting her wings as she fell threw the sky she pulled her halberd out as she struck him in the back knocking him across the dirt. She hit the ground with grace as she always had, and as soon as the man was climbing to his feet she swung her halberd knocking him back once more. As he climbed to his feet again, she once more swung her halberd knocking him back into a wall. She spunn her halberd above her head, and with one swift and strong move she slammed her halberd into the ground. "Earthquacke."
The ground beneath them shook violently as a large crack opened up from the tip of the axe and traveled toward the man himself causing him to fall the few feet into the hole as the rocks and debre covered him. She picked up her halberd and walked forward shifting a bit of the rubble to reach down and grab the metal box before he could get up. She turned around to head back to the bar keeping her eye on the rubble incase he got back up.

The man laid beaten and battered upon the lush carpet dawning the entrance of the factory. Suddenly the doors slid open and a cool, well dressed man in shades walked out and looked down at the theif. The theif shuttered and grabbed Vectors leg. "Boss, I brought the..." Then there was a loud blast as a bullet blew a softball sized hole into the thiefs scull. He looked at one of his many body-guard.
"Get someone to clean this mess up!" He ordered. Picking up the sack of chips he walked up to Dark. He put a a catty smile. "I know you. You're Dark. Bishop's Dark...right?" He then took out a hand-held device and began typing something. "Such desperation is unbecomming of the creatures we truely are. But you, you my dear are a creature of true grace." He then handed her the bag. He was trying to pay off his bounty." He then looked back. "A serial rapist. I do not care that much for wealth." He then lowered his glasses and put the bag in her hands. "But...I would perfer that my fire-arm remain our little secret if you don't mind." He said with a winning smile. "So, how is the old doctor treating you?"

Dark looked at the bag of chips and then at Vector. "He treats me better than anyone else would," she said as she looked around almost like she was doing something wrong. "Besides telling me that I shouldn't be talking to you," she said. Still she looked around like she was doing something. In a way hoping that she wouldn't be fussed at when she returned to the bar. "As for your little fire-arm it's not my place to say. It would be your word against mine. An seeing as how you run things my word wouldn't get to far," she said. "But thank you for letting me have the money back." She finally stopped fidgeting and looked up at Vector. "What brings you out here? Surly a man of your stature wouldn't come out here to deal with this."

Vector laughs. "That's the big question now isn't it? Why would a king leave his castle?" He then knelt down and put a sympathetic arm on her shoulder. "If I were to do that I would lose that what makes me human. Though I must represent the hope of the community I must also be part of the community." Taking off his glasses he began cleaning them. "As for 'Bishop' we just went seperate ways. He thinks that I have lost sight of things but not once in ten years has he come by to see me. He rely's on rumors and public opinion." He then turned to look at the tall building. "We both sought to make life better for the scappers in our own way. He enforced the law, healed the injured and I brought about law and structure. He was always a free spirit." He then smiled at Dark. "Found structure restricting. I have a feeling so do you." He then sighed and looked at the dirt.
"But he is a troubled man. I hope having you in his life can breath some vigor back into him. He's complex, a puzzle. Maybe I'm the only one that knows how to solve it. Who knows, maybe that's why he fears me so. He doesn't want to let people in, let others know his inner truth."

Dark looked up at Vector as he talked about Bishop. She was a bit puzzled but after a moment she shook her head. "I highly doubt I could do anything. He doesn't talk about his past with me," she said lightly. Smiling weakly as she herself looked at the ground. "I wish he would tell me more, treat me more like a person then a child," she said then looked up realizing what she was saying. "I shouldn't be talking about this," she looked back at Vector trying her best to hid wanting to know more, but she knew well enough that her eyes were failing her. She had to get back it was just hard knowing that here stood a man that could help her understand Bishop more than she did know.
