Reno stared at the little sphere in his hand, squinting hard at it. It had almost killed him to get this damn thing, this stupid fucking piece of doomsday that AVALANCHE - the real AVALANCHE - had been so hell-bent on getting their mitts on. And he hadn't told Tseng yet. Hadn't really told anybody but the Rookie.
He had a little piece of the end of the world, the beginning of the end of the Turks, right there in his hand. Shit, he was still bleeding on the damn thing. Or maybe that blood belonged to the Ravens he'd taken down to get it.
AVALANCHE would notice it was missing before long. They'd send someone to investigate and they'd find blood and footprints and the telltale smoke and ozone smell of thundaga in the air. And he'd be long gone by the time that happened. He looked down at the corpse of the Raven on the ground. He spat on it as the body began to fade.
And then he picked up his phone and placed two calls. One to Portalocity, telling them to send a portal to a location that was a good ten minutes away on foot, if he ran like hell. And, as he was running like hell, he placed a second call.
Now the mission was out of his hands and over to Iris.

He'd been sad.
Maybe it was that which spurred her next action. Or maybe it was just a random whim. "Ah!" she said brightly, but quietly. "One more thing! Before I forget!"
And then, with the speed that only Reno could best her in, she made her way over to Tseng and, with the spirit of mischief in her eyes, pressed a quick kiss to his cheek before pulling away.
"We can go now," Ino said to Reno.
I knew it, she told both men. Kissing Tseng is way better than kissing you, Reno.

Tseng blinked. And stared, his mouth slightly agape.
This time last year, he was convinced she would have killed him in a heartbeat if he'd so much as breathed wrong.
"I'll ask what that was all about later. Try to stay out of trouble."
Oh, just wait until the next time they spoke.
