Kaye looked between the two of them, smiling sheepishly. "Now before you go into complete shut-down mode, just hear me out." She took an exaggerated deep breath and released it before continuing, "I know that none of us are very fond of the Brotherhood, but at this point I don't see any other way. They have the resources to make this happen and-"

	"And they will take everything from us," Jace said, narrowing his eyes. 

	"So now you admit that there actually is an 'us?'" Kaye smiled slyly at him, but he simply ignored her.

	"Just like with the one in vault, she will take these just as well and leave us with nothing but scrap metal and dust."

	"That is why we only tell her of the one."
	
	He fell into a short bout of silence. "Even if we tell her about this G.E.C.K., what do you plan on doing from there? Do you honestly believe they are simply going to fix it for us and say 'here you go and have a good life?'"

	It was Kaye's turn to remain silent. "I know it sounds crazy, but it's worth a shot. If we can somehow entice her to help us out, it just might work."

	"How would we entice her, Kaye? We barely have any caps to get us through to the next day, and we don't have anything more to offer."

	"Well do you have any other ideas?!" Kaye was seriously growing tired of Jace's constant pessimism.

	He simply stared at her blankly for a long while before shaking his head in disbelief. "I need another drink..." He raised his hand to call over the waiter.
