Trevor made a groan, but didn't reply. On his jaw was a huge bruise forming that looked like knuckle prints.

Long drags him to the water's edge and splashes some water on his face, but the side that is not bruised. "Trevor! Can you hear me? Can you move?"

As the water hit his face, Trevor because to come to, first stirring then opening his eyes with a groan. " What hap... allison?" He sat straight up and looked at the remains of the house. as he did, it became apparent how weak he was as he flopped to his side, unable to catch himself.
He was, however, able to start to drag himself away from Long when he got a look at him," What, did she leave you behind to make sure the job was finished?" Slowly and wobbly, he got to his feet," Come on then, I'm not just giving up. You want a piece of me, come get it, you Brethren piece of...," he didn't get to finish as he had to catch himself from staggering backwards. He was hardly in and shape, but he was determined to defend himself.
In the distance, Long could hear a helicopter approaching.

Long holds up his hands to try to calm Trevor down. "I'm not here to hurt you. I'm an undercover cop. My mission was to reach the gang leader. What happened here was supposed to be my initiation into the gang. We were told that this house was supposed to be empty. Obviously we were lied to. I simply could not go through with the mission with innocent people dieing. I'm so sorry that I let this happen."

Trevor listened, then flopped down to the ground hard, no longer able to stand. He started to sob, " We weren't supposed to be up here but Allison wanted to get away. She was tired from the drive, so I went for a walk and..." he was obviously breaking down," Why didn't you stop them?" he demanded.

"You're right. I have no excuse for what happened. I can only hope that I might be able to earn your forgiveness."

The helicopter was getting closer as Trevor groaned as he tried to get up, " Help me get into the barn is a good place to start." He looked at Long," How do you know my name, anyways?"

"Wait. We can't go into the barn yet. That helicopter is going to be my backup. We need to make sure that we're here when it gets here. I heard Rusty say your name when she was taunting you just before you started fighting."

"Backup? You called in the calvary when you were unconscious?" Trevor countered. "What if you're wrong and Rusty called a clean up crew? Look, my bike is in the barn. If you're right, we stay. If not,..." he let his statement drop.

"Ok. Just in case." Long helps Trevor to his feet and have him use Long as a crutch. They start heading to the barn.

By the time they reached the barn, the helicopter was overhead. Trevor had been right and it wasn't Long's backup after all. The unmarked back helo circled the property slowly, as if looking for something.

[Whispering] "Hey Trevor. Do you have a strong rope and a crowbar around here somewhere? These assholes are not getting away with this on my watch."

"Are you crazy?" Trevor perked up a bit. " Hey, look, in case you just missed it, we just got our tails handed to us, my boss' camp is in embers and my girlfriend's dead." His voice was more than a whisper. " Odds are whoever is buzzing us is no one you want to mess with by yourself because I'm in no shape to go another round, okay?" He sighed, then pointed towards the work bench, " Might be some over there in that mess. If you get me killed when we could have escaped, I'll come back and haunt you. And you don't want a ghost that can manipulate fire haunting you."
The chopper made another, lower pass.

"Alright. I'll give it a pass this time since you're not up to it. It's a shame though. Can't attack them or even put some kind of a beacon on the chopper."
