Doc left store, package in hand as he headed to the other side of the Market. It was a simple job, pick up, drop off. He hadn't called Rogue, which he was sure he was going to regret if she found out, but was happy to keep it to himself. After all, what were the chances of him running into her now. It would only taken 15 minutes.

"You know, it was not an option to leave me out of the loop" I said from behind him. Wounded or not I was annoyed he wouldn't inform me. "I guarantee you crossing me isn't a good road to travel down."

Oh. Crap. Damn you Murphy.
"Um, would you believe it was just a 15 minute job with no attached dangers?" He asked hopefully.

"And Raven was a real charmer."

"Raven was an obsessive arse with too much power," Doc said darkly. "and he's dead. There's no one else in the world that wants me that dead with that much power. The kidnapping earlier was a fluke. Raven was dead and I let my guard down. I have several weapons and an emergancy alert linked to both Mal and your mobile phone. It won't happen again."

"Oh you underestimate someone. Or you over estimate my control. Should I be flattered or offended?" Without bothering to wait for a response I continued. "Reguardless, I do not wish for anything to happen to you while you finish healing. I mean I just got used to your annoyances and for some reason just might miss the source of annoyance in my unlife."

"I don't know whether to be happy or insulted I'm that easy to get used to," he remarked.

"Fair enough. And what is it you are retrieving?"

Or fail to be impaled or grave injured but I kept that comment to myself. No need to be uncivilized at the current point in time. "So you are the supernatural mailman? Get chased by any werewolves yet?" See I knew some pop culture jokes.

He couldn't hide the smirk. "Not bad," he said. "and no, not yet. Trust me, compared to some, this is an easy job. Like I said, I'm holding off on th more difficult jobs til I'm healed."

"Good, and until you have back up I hope." Of course that would not be llikely. If Doc thought he could handle it than he apparently would. Of course I could injure him gravely... but that might put a crank on the relationship.

Doc snorted. "I broke into some old temple in Africa to retrieve an old gem from a cursed hall guarded by some kind of felhounds. I think I can handle a few retrievals alone."

"I think I've become soft. Twice you've left me an opening now and I have yet to make any cruel remark. Must be age catching up with me. Or hell freezing over. Regretably the latter is a bit more probable."

"I was asked to take some kerosene to the closest Hellmouth," Doc mused. "Maybe they need some new heaters too?"
