From the very beginning Hunter and Wrecker had misgivings about working with Fennec Shand.
Aside from her trying to maim or kill Hunter she took off with Omega, a terrified child.
He never knew where her loyalties lay. And she didn’t believe in even a smidgen of selflessness.
Now being rudely ordered around by this cold woman on some swampy ass crack of a planet for intel...that he wasn’t sure they’d ever see.
But he and Wrecker really had nothing to bargain with.
Now she was giving them both crap about losing Omega.
Bitch doesn’t know shit about where we’ve been or what we’ve experienced to protect our family.
Plus, she was willing to kidnap A KID for MONEY.
Fennec claimed to stop going after the bounty when whomever hired Fennec thought Omega would be safer with them. And she refused to tell them who that was.
Mighty nice of you, sweetheart.
“Guess they were wrong about that.” She taunted them.
Wrecker shot back “Guess you’ll work for anybody, as long as you get paid.”
Hunter was starting to lose his patience...and a bit of his empathy. At least for sketchy characters who dangled important info that would help a cause or an innocent person’s quality of life, just out of reach.
He knew he was becoming bitter. Compassion Fatigue.
“Good guys or bad guys, their money is all the same.” She trotted out THAT platitude.
“Well, money isn’t everything.” Hunter countered.
“That’s cause you don’t have any.” Fennec sneered.
Under the helmet Hunter ground his teeth. She had no right to judge him and his brothers this way. Surely, she started from nothing? Didn’t most of the galaxy?
The bounty was bagged and brought back into Fennec’s ship.
“Pleasure doing business with you.”
“Hang on. You promised information.” Hunter angrily demanded.
“I didn’t say I had it with me. But I’ll get it.” Fennec stared down at them. “After I deliver Sylar to my client.
“That’s NOT what we agreed on.” Hunter and Wrecker were PISSED, it showed on their faces.
“You can either fight me or trust me. Take your pick.”
Hunter and Wrecker glanced at one another stone faced.
She’s fucking with us.
“Good choice. I’ll be in touch.”
Then the confident, cold-blooded Fennec Shand made a HUGE mistake.
She turned her back on Hunter.
He shot her, his blaster was NOT set to stun.
She fell onto the gangplank, still somewhat alive. Instantly regretting that she mistook both clones for harmless fools.
Hunter stepped up and leaned down to face Fennec.
“You’re right, we’re credit-less. That’ll change when we turn in your bounty and scrap your ship. We also have your contacts and intel now, too.”
Fennec gasped, clinging onto the last shred of life.
“Too late for YOU to learn a valuable lesson: Don’t FUCK with people who have loved ones...cause we’ll do ANYTHING to secure their safety.”
Wrecker yanked up Fennecs dying body from the gangplank so he could pilot her ship. “Heh, didn’t she say something earlier about eventually everyone’s luck runs out?”
“Guess she thought it didn’t apply to HER.” Hunter walked off to pilot the Marauder.
