The dull hum of tires running over the worn pavement had set most of the inhabitents of the old van to sleep, each craddled in their respective seats while the driver fought to stay awake until her driving shift was over. It had be a long slow night, as they always tended to be, with the going slow as the caravan picked it's way along the old stretch of highway.

The driver shook her head slightly, trying to keep herself awake as the sun slowly broke over the horizen, lighting up the cabin of the vehicle and nearly blinding her in the process. With a grunt, she pulled down the sunshade and sat up as much as she could, trying to peer out the grime covered windshield to keep from hitting the truck running just in front of her.

Wrinkling her nose a little, she looked down at her wristwatch and gave a sigh of relief as it ticked off the end of her shift. Reaching over, she nudged the passenger next to her, attempting to wake them up.

"Hey sleepy head, wake up. Your turn to start driving, and don't give me that five more minutes garbage." Theo said with a smile. It was almost routine for her sister to beg off another five minutes in the morning before actually waking up to take over the controls. "Come on, I said wake up!"

The other in the passenger seat finaly started stiring, little black nose appearing first from under the blanket, followed slowly by a pair of blinking blue eyes as the sun caught directly in them and made her shut them tightly again, "Ahhhh! It burns! Get it away from me...." she half mumbled, half yelled, pulling the blanket quickly back over her head to hide again.

Theo sighed a bit as she reached over and forcibly pulled the blanket down, revealing her sister to the sun and to the world, if anyone was looking. She had a tendancy to sleep nude, even when traveling in the compact area of the front seat, and Theo could see a small pile of clothing at her feet on the floor boards. "Come on Felix, wake up. I've already been driving for the entire night, I'd like a little sleep too you know."

With a loud grumble, Felix stretched out in the laid back seat, her fingers running along the metalic roof. The sun caught her jet black fur as she did, shining against it and highlighting the well toned areas along her belly and up across her well formed chest. Theo couldn't help but glance a few times as Felix slowly sat up. No matter how many times she saw her sister nude, she still felt a little jealous at not having been as blessed in some areas that Felix obviously was.

"Ok ok, I'm awake. Just let me pull my things on." Felix muttered, reaching down with a flexibility that only members of the weasel family have to snag her dress and slip it on. After adjusting herself and her black rimmed glases, she checked the small vanity mirror in the sunshade to make sure she looked fit enough and moved out of the passenger seat to wait for Theophan to move, well used to this manuver now.

Still holding onto the steering wheel, Theo moved out of the driver seat after setting up the rigged cruise control, (a contraption that essentialy was a stick that got propped against the gas pedal) and let Felix move into it. After making sure her sister had control of the wheel, Theo let it go and settled into the passenger seat and yawned widely.

"What a slow night. More of the road has deterorated since we last came through here. Made a mess of one of the scout bikes..." she broke off with another yawn, reaching down to grab the still warm blanket and pulling it up over her lap. "Just take it easy... We want that gas to last until the next refueling break."

Felix smiled a little and yawned herself, "Ok sis. I promise to take it easy." She was about to say more when a loud snore broke her train of thoughts, emenating from the rear of the van. Rolling her eyes, Theo looked back at the still form of Shenjii. Another mink like her and her sister, she was far younger by comparison. Just barely into adulthood and already running with them on these protection runs for the cargo caravans.

"Shenjii! Shenjii!" Theo hissed, trying to wake up the young mink. The snoring stopped abruptly as a small pair of black eyes peeked out of the mass of blankets she had swaddled around herself.

"Huh? What's the matter?" Shenjii asked sleepily, a small furred hand coming up to rub at her eyes, "I was sleeping good." She sat up slowly, the blankets fall from around her shoulders at the sun finaly struck her. Unlike either of the sisters, Shenjii was a mix of black and white, having cream colored fur over her paws and belly, and a dull black fur over the rest of her body.

"You were snoring, that's what is the matter. I'm trying to go to sleep." said Theophan, who promptly pulled the blanket over her head to block out the sun, a muffled, "Have a good day." coming from under them as she quickly started dozing off.

Felix smiled a little as she became more alert, looking in the rearview mirror at Shenjii, "Morning kid. Nice to see you join the land of the living again. If I didn't know better, I'd say you sleep more than I do." she said with a slight chuckle while trying to pay attention to the road at the same time.

Shenjii smiled a little as she crawled over the small walkway between the various tools of trade kept in the van, her pants undone and shirt lost in the bed somewhere, and not seemingly worried about it. "Nice of you two to let me have the bed. It's such a luxury after my old haunts. I'm still thankful you let me come along and got me out of that place.." she shuddered a little as a few memories flitted across her consciousness, "I don't know what I would have done if you left me there. Those gangs were really getting bad."

Felix smiled a little and leaned over to kiss the younger one's cheek. She couldn't have been more than eighteen or nineteen years old, and Felix couldn't stand the thought of leaving the kid behind in the hands of those she had fought off personaly. "Think nothing of it, cutie. I know what those idiots were capable of."

She started to say more, but the sudden sound of an explosion ripped the air and overpowered even the sound of the engine. Up in the distance, a small cloud of smoke started to curl into the air. "SHIT! Lets get a move on!" Felix nearly yelled, flooring the gas while flipping a few switches on the dash, the whine of something slowly building in the cab....
