Once it had all settled, Lake was thankful he was still conscious. He slowly stood up, and his ghost materialised in front of him.
[i] Yeah.... This things wrecked. Also, might want to check yourself. You're bleeding.[/i]
Lake's hand automatically went to his side, and sure enough, it was damp. He shook his head, knowing he didn't have the time, or the knowledge to patch it.
" Whatever. I've dealt with worse."
[i] Maybe not. It's pretty serious.[/i]
" Why don't you just get me out of here?"
The ghost made a sigh before flying towards the door, which thankfully, was still operable. Opening the latch, he limped into an office space.
" Cozy."

R:" This is just great, exactly why I operate alone." She mutters to herself R:" Zen can you get me in there," Romii dematerialises, the materialises some where inside th ruined building. R:" Find him will you." After a couple of minutes she finds a closed door, and tries to open it without success. R:" Lake, you in there?"
-
" Depends. Where is here?" The place was dark, and he couldn't really see. At least, not any doors. Switching the light on his helmet on, he looked around. Sure enough, there was a door on the other end of the room. He limped over and opened the door. His wound was still bleeding, but he paid it no attention.
-
R:" Can u see if it's ...... F*** It, STAND CLEAR"
-
" Stand clear of what? I'm right in front of you!" He waved his hand in her face, as if checking if she was even paying attention.
-
She taps the side of her helmet, then bangs it harder. R:" Damn it the enhanced imaging has frozen again, I cant see jack now," She removes her helmet R:" Zen see if you can do something with that." She looks at Lake R:"your bleeding pretty bad?"
-
" Not too bad. I've had worse." His ghost appeared behind him. [i] I recommend dealing with it now. Of course he won't listen.[/i] " Let's get move on already."
-
R:"let me take a look at it" She's blocking his path out and has no intention of moving until this wound had been dressed.
-
" Can we not? I really don't want to waste time here."
-
R:"Well then don't argue and just do it, if it's nothing we are out of here anyway, if it's something I can dress it and we are out of here anyway- again."
-
" Or. We can just continue on, find the Warlock, you get your memory back, we go our separate ways. Then I can worry about a simple cut."
-
R:" Or we can ignore the 'cut' get half way to wherever and you can keel over wasting even more time because by then it will need more than a simple patch up."
-
Lake was going to say something back, but he gave up. " Fine. We'll do it your way."
-
R:" your gonna have to remove that chest piece. I'm skilled but I'm not magic."
-
Edited by IXMMISmokey: 11/25/2015 4:26:30 AMLake hesitated at first, but he resigned himself. He started unstrapping his chest piece. Once it was off, he unzipped his under armour to reveal his chest. Aside from the obvious fresh wound, there was scars all over him. Long and short gashes. But the one that stood out was a cut. It was large, and circular in shape. He tried to seem as normal as possible. " Well, have at it then."
-
She's seen it all before, it doesn't even make her flinch. She grabs her flask, R:" this is gonna sting like a b**ch" She uses one hand to hold the wound open and the other pours her precious vodka on it. R:" what a waste."
-
Lake didn't flinch. He was looking around at the room. " We would probably be near one of the hideouts by now..."
-
Thank god he's not a squirmer she thinks to herself. R:" Gonna need stitches in that " She warns him before pulling out a pack of surgical needles.
-
" Yeah alright. Just make this quick."
-
She's already threaded them before he agrees. If there is one thing Romii is good at it is stitching up wounds, she's had to stitch herself up plenty times. After a couple of minutes she's done. R:" your all good:"
-
He immediately started putting his armour back on. Once it was all on and secured Lake looked at her. " We wasted enough time. Ready?"
-
R:" Sure." She follows on not saying, anything.
-
He nodded and led the way out of the building. They walked on silently through the jungle. The only noise was either from the jungle itself, or their stepping.
-
She walks behind him a few feet being sure to step where he steps. ' cayde-6 - tracking 101' she can imagine the vanguard mentor now. ' keep eyes on your partner at all times. ' travel single file' ' walk where they walk, and I mean literally guardian' ' if your on point pay attention to your surroundings' He really did love the sound of his own voice. She smiles to herself.
-
Lake suddenly stopped. They were in a canyon of sorts. He looked around. He had definitely heard something, or maybe it was his imagination? He didn't have anymore doubts however, as a wire rifle discharged and nearly shot him in the head of he didn't step out of the way in time. As if on cue, a group of Fallen sprung on them from all directions.
-
R; "Zen you fixed that helmet yet cos I could really do with it back. " Z:" working on it." R:" Lake, don't suppose these are friends of yours?
