(Don't worry about the 13/XIII/Orphan sub-plot. I've got an idea that'll only require two or four posts, in which I'll take care of unfinished business.)

Inside the Dying Angel...(Orphan's flagship)
*XIII is hanging by leather straps, drool dripping from a slack mouth. He is shirtless, bruised, and bloodied. His back is ragged and torn from a whip, and a shadow named Orphan stands before him.*
Orphan: You think that he'll come save you? Think that he still cares? *XIII looks up with bloodshot eyes.* He didn't come for me. *XIII begins to laugh, a rattling bloody sound. He chokes out mumbled words.*
Don't feed me that bullshit, XIII. You know that you both could've tried. But, the money was just a little too good, wasn't it? *Orphan smiles almost dreamily, caressing the hilt of a katana lovingly.*
I hope he does come. One last battle, right?
(OoC: Alright, know who Orphan is now. This is 13, but I'm just using XIII's account. We're actually different people, I swear!)

(back on the serenity)
wolfie follows mal into the corridor.
*mal slams wolfie against the wall.*
"what?!"
"what the hell did you think you were doing?!"
"i was interrigating the person who sold you all out!"
"...ah...er...um...where in the worlds did you come from anyway?"
"i took some hints from a certain bounty hunter"
"but that doesent matter!"
" ok but i wanna know if you ain't gonna sell me out as well."
" look i have my own reasons to hate the blue glove organization. but thats my buissness, mine and ertias."
"LOOK, i can pilot this ship better than almost anyone on this boat, and those that can sky her better than me are in the infermary."
*wolf hits mal in the chest, just hard enough to make him let go*
"and you'll see that i ain't no pussy in a fire fight neither"
*mal opens his mouth to say somthing, but wolf stops him.*
"i've been up against alliance, hybrids, smugglers, murderers, you name it i've fought it!"
"i was a browncoat, i for the independents, seargeant-major wolf speedfreeze, thats what they called me. battle of serenity vally. yeh i know."
"but that woudnt appear on any records, i started half way through, had to take my gun and coat from a dead man, but don't worry mister reynolds, i gave 'em back and got my own."
"well...ok then."
*wolf hushed him*
"look, i ain't lookin to rule, your position as cap'n is safe."
"me and kaylee had a bit of a hoo ha quite a few years back, but i'm sure you don't like romance stories. we mostly stay outa each others way."
"so all in all cap, you got nothin to fear so don't worry."
*him and mal walk back into the gally where everyone was listning at the door but they sudenly all acted nonchalant*

(Good point, Wolfie! I gots a new idea for a tiny tiny spin-off I want to try out. I won't be able to do it right unless Guy comes with me to the Dying Angel. Whaddaya say, Guy? Wanna? Anyway..)
Guy, remember five years ago, that bank job we pulled?
GUY: With the lasers, yeah.
13: Well, Orphan's back, and he's got XIII.
*Guy reels, floods of memories and mixed emotions drowning him at the mention of that name.*
13: XIII sent out a distress signal. Inara wrote down most of it here. *He passes the note to Guy, who studies it carefully.* I've already made the calculations. If I leave now, I should be able to rendevousz with you guys in twelve hours. *He and Guy walk to 13's bunk, where Guy begins to talk.*
No way Orphan's back. For one thing, he couldn't have broken out, and how'd he even get his own ship?
13: I don't have a clue. I just know he's got XIII. *He rummages in a large, weathered satchel, finally drawing out a long, wooden box. Inside is a trainer katana, carved with the name 'Delilah.'*
GUY: Oh, Christ....Orphan won't stop with XIII. He'll track us all down...
13: Not if I stop him first. *13 leaves his bunk, making his way to shuttle 2.*

20 minutes ago....
*Pain was relieved when Mal showed up and took Wolfie away after Wolfie was about to cut BlueMask's ear off. Mal had told JR and Pain to watch over BM. JR had volunteered to go first and was stationed outside of the infirmary. Pain and the rest excluding River and Ertia headed to the galley. Once in the galley Pain walked over to a chair and sat down, pulling out a half smoked cigar and lighting it, as 13 and Guy started talking to each other. Pain was too preoccupied to listen to their conversation. He thought to himself*
How long has it been since I last saw Wolfie. Must've been two years ago a least. He even called me Dr. Noone even calls me that anymore.
*Pain's thought trail off as he hears a scuffle outside. Everyone except for 13 and Guy run over to the closed door and listen. Everyone hurries back to their seats as Wolfie and Mal step in. Pain had sat down on the couch in the alcove, still smoking his cigar. He was feeling tired as he'd been awake for about a week straight. He thought to himself*
Gorram insomnia probably should go to the infirmary and see if'n the doc can give me something.
*Pain was too busy lost in thought to see 13 and Guy leave.*

*evryone stops talking as a large explosion rocks the ship violently*
fly" sir we have been boarded!"
mal" GET BARRICADES UP!" " pain, 13, book, arm yourselves and get ready!!
river, kaylee, ertia lock yourselves in one of jaynes old bunk, oh and give vera to the pup, see what he can do with a real weapon."
relising mal ment him wolf ran to the bunks and grabed the mighty rifle.
[[10 minuits later]]
pain, 13, book and wolf are at the front line of the barricades.
mal and zoe are guarding jack.
simon and the others are holed up in the space including the bridge and the bunks.
everyone prepares as the first shots are heard and people began banging against the doors.
*wolfs eyes glaze*
*wolf shakes his head as if shaking off water*
wolf" its the feds, they want their men back."
13" how do you....?"
*the men brake through*
wolf" never mind, FIRE!!!."
*guns blazing the ragtag crew fully attack the aggressors.*
*in the confusion wolf saw that he got 3.*
*13 got 2.*
*pain got 4.*
*book got...7! what kind of a shepard was this guy?*
*but there were still many more coming*
*13 stood up*
" DIE YOU JIN CHOW LU TZE!!!!!" cried the hybrid.
*book dragged him to the ground*

*Pain was running out of ammo quick. He cursed at himself as he fired his silenced .45 around the corner. He called out to Wolfie as he ejected an empty clip, holstered his pistol, and unholstered the Ruger Super Redhawk revolver*
Wolfie cover me I'm goin' to get me some more ammo.
*Wolfie nods and fires at the oncoming feds as Pain raced to the vacant passenger dorm. Once there he holstered his revolver and slid open the door. He hastily opened the crate of SMGs that he had purchased on Persephone and took out one of the FN P90's. He slung it over his good shoulder and stuffed a dozen 50rd clips into a side pocket. Satisfied with his armament Pain unslung the SMG and raced back to where the others were. He made sure the lightweight gun was cocked and set it to fire 3-shot burst. He leaned against the wall, took a few deep breaths, and resumed firing on the feds.*

Did anybody question BlueHands Man? Is he dead yet...'cause he's been dying for a while? Can we throw the body out the airlock?)
Stray fire strafes the cargo bay.
Adam, the Mystery Man, falls down dead, his body riddled with bullets, neatly removing a troublesome side-plot.
Ertia, hiding with River and Kaylee in the Engine room, (because putting our mechanic in a bunk when we need her in the engine room doesn't make alot of sense) checks the charge on her laser pistol. Less than quarter charge. Not much use if they break through to the engine room.
She bolts the heavy door and glances over to Kaylee, who sparks up her welder. The petite mechanic shrugs; "Just in case."
