Jace barely fought the urge to say something more as he watched Kaye and Leith making their way into the cave. Only when they were out of sight did he turn to look at Torin once more. Without saying a word, he held his hand out towards him. Torin looked at the offered hand confused for a while before Jace finally spoke up. "Give me the gun."
	Torin's eyes widened as he placed a possessive hand over it once more. "What? No way! You gave it to me!"
	"Yes, I did...being under the impression that you knew what you were doing. I should have known a  raider wouldn't know how to do anything right."
	Raider wasn't the type to lose his cool, but he found his anger rising quickly. "Not everyone has the same opportunities that you have, you know. You made a choice being out in this wasteland. You have a goal and a purpose that you founded on your own terms. I was never given the option to lead a different life, and if I could have any sooner then believe me, I would have taken it. And for you to stand there judging me like you're any better than me, then look in a mirror for once. In the end you're still an ass."
	Jace was a little surprised at his outburst and couldn't even bring himself to comment on it. It was the most he'd heard the kid speak since they found him back at the vault. Although he didn't want to admit it, he knew he was right to some degree. It was unfair of him to judge Torin for the select actions of a few, and he didn't know anything about his story any more than knowing what was in that cave.
	"Torin...give me the gun. I will teach you how to use it properly, but now isn't the time. A gun in the hands of the untrained is just as dangerous as a deathclaw."
	Torin gritted his teeth in anger as he took off the holster and shoved it into Jace's chest as he stomped off towards the woods, wordlessly. He watched as he disappeared around a small hill before Jace released a soft sigh.
	"He won't go far," he mumbled softly as he took a seat on a fallen tree. "We are his protection and he's not going to abandon the only chance of survival he has."
