(Title is for failure to think of something better. Basically, we're either under the thumb of Draiga, ruler of Haven City, some in a resistance movement. Or free, but fighting for survival in the Wasteland and Spargus City.)
Sema was on his way back to Spargus. A storm was coming and he figured he'd had a good enough haul. He then saw a bunch of outcasts.
"Ah crap." He pulled the trigger on the steering wheel and fired up the Sand Shark's front-mounted machine guns. He knew he hit his mark when one of the rogue's vehicles blew up. Causing a few to explode as well, and the rest to flip.

As the Rouge in charge of her ran around trying to fix things X 13 made this her chance to finally escape them. Taking a JET board she got a running head start and took off on it. She had no clue where she was going but hey who ever does out here? Then she saw another person and stopped on a dime, not again.... she thought helplessly. She looked around glad to see no one had noticed her escape back there. She again looked at the stranger her face still had the residence of her tears from earlier that day. A few streks of blackish red that she quickly wiped away and readied her self to take off again.

Sema noticed the girl on the board and pulled up next to her. "Wanna lift?" he asked

She blinked at him and cocked her head to the side. She seemed to be thinking about it looking over her shoulder once more then nodding to Sema and getting off of her JET board. She was bare foot and in a very tattered and dirty wight hospital gown that allowed her brand 13 show. She went up to him and looked so tiny even though she was 5 foot tall she was just built that small and fragile looking.

"Hold on tight!" Sema said with a wild look in his eyes as he activated the turbo boost. "Yahoooooo!" he shouted as he felt the wind blast him in the face. He hit the brakes and the vehicle stopped just as soon as he got inside the walls of Spargus. "C'mon. I'll take ya to Sig." he told X.

She looked like she was laughing when Sema hit the brakes but no sound came out. It was just a silent movement. X blinked at him but seemed like the kind of person to go along with anything. She gets up holding her JET board and looking around seemingly amazed. It seems as though she hasn't seen much of anything aside from sand and rock.

As Sema guided X to the throne room, people were whispering things like, "Who's the newcomer?" and, "She won't make it past the first arena challenge."

X ignored this talk, it felt to her as if this is the second time she's heard this kind of talk according to how fragile looking she was. Though the winds picked up slightly as her temper flared a bit. She made a sighing noise that was quiet and pretty but quite annoyed.

As Sema pulled X into the elevator that leads to the throne room he said, "Don't listen to them. They said the same about me when I came along."
"Well, well." Sig said as the elevator stopped in front of him. "Looks like we got ourselves a newbie!" he said with a smile on his face.

X nodded silently to what Sema said. When the elevator opened she cocked her head slightly to the side. She smiled at Sig shyly tugging slightly at her tattered hospital gown. It was becoming obvious that she couldn't speak at all.

"S'matter? Metal Head got your tongue?" Sig said as he walked up.
"I don't think she can speak." Sema said. "I found her after taking down a few marauders."
"Is this true?" Sig asked X, placing a strong hand on her shoulder.

X flinched at first then relaxed and nodded. Answering both questions it was frustrating being unable to speak, but she couldn't remember if she ever knew how in the first place. She gave them both a small smile as if to say "it doesn't bother me"

Sig took on a thoughtful look. "Well, you should get something a little more decent on. Sema!"
Sema jumped. "Yessir!"
"Take this girl back to your place so she can recover from her time in the desert."
"Will do. C'mon uh..." Sema realized he didn't know X's name as he took her hand.

Realizing no one knew her name not even her, X thinks for a second. She puts a hand on her branded back just barely reaching the 13 mark. Then she comes up with something. She makes an "X" with her fingers then puts up 1 finger next to 3. She then put her hands together in a way that seemed to mean "shorten" and just made the "X" sign.

Sema took a while to figure it out. "Well... X? I'll get you something that'll give you some more covering. Might not actually fit though." Sema lifted her into his arms this time and carried her to his place. Which was right next to the arena.
