[b]Medical Wing, Overwatch Central Command Complex (The Triple C), Agent/Combatant Ward.[/b]
[u]Location unknown.[/u]
Crane's first waking thought was that his mouth felt and tasted like crap.
The second was that he was very, very hungry.
He dazedly tried to get up from his hospital bed, and so his third thought was a little like this.
[i]Ow. That's a fair bit- OW OW OW OW. WHYYYYYYYYYYYY. Ow. Why ow why why why.[/i]
Then a brief moment of clarity.
[i]It's because you jumped on top of the Potential, [b]stupid[/b], what else could it be?[/i]
Then it was back to his (now faintly audible) screaming.
And that's when Brick and Dust showed up with orange juice and toast.
Crane smelled the beautiful, lovely, wonderful food, sat straight up to grab it-
And passed out from the pain.

*As he wakes a cloaked figure, their face hidden by a large sombrero, sits in the chair next to his bed. They seem to be reading an oversized book with a skull on the front* [spoiler]I love tying in the threads. But this is the only time she's gonna be here.[/spoiler]
-
[i]Um... Hi. Who are you?[/i]
-
"Ah. You're awake, good." *The figure looks up and under the sombrero smirks a young woman* "You snore."
-
[spoiler]Wait is this Blank or is it the proprietor of the [i]Laughing Coffin?[/i][/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]Blank is sleeping. Its Shadow.[/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]I figured. Sucks that Taeda's dead, ya know? [/spoiler]
-
[spoiler]It does. Oh well.[/spoiler]
-
[i]Good to know. How long was I out?[/i]

Maybe an hour or so." *She snaps the book closed as a dark smoke began to rise out of it and throws it into a deep red rift that opens long enough to swallow the book and close* "Now, about why I am here. You saved someone I care about a lot. Why?"
-
Crane shrugs, wincing slightly. [i]Because I didn't want to see innocents die. The people of this city hate us enough to attack us, sure, but we still try to keep them safe. She was no different. That, and I have... memories, sometimes, and she, or someone like her, is in some of them. Hopefully, she can fill in some of the blanks.[/i]
-
"Heh...that she could do. Keep her safe Crane, she's one of my last children alive in this universe." *She leans back, tipping the sombrero back as well*
-
[i]I'm not even going to ask how that works. But I'll do my best. We all will.[/i]

"Good. Teach her well. If only I could teach her myself, but I am currently tracking down some kidnappers. This is just a decoy." *To illustrate she pulls out a knife and severs her hand, but nothing but deep black fog comes out of the wound. The hand itself turns into the fog as well*

-
"Thanks." *Her eyes turn pure black, with red centers* "You better not try anything....." *She seems to just melt right into the black fog that seeps into the shadows, staring at you until her entirety is gone*

Crane does the only logical thing one can do when confronted by a crazy smoke-person who's somehow related to the person you just saved the life of: Pass out.

[spoiler]how the hell is he alive?[/spoiler]

((He's already chock-full of robot bits, and his armor blocked about 2 dozen of the thirty-five bullets the surgeons dug out of him. Advanced clotting drugs and first response droids are a wonderful thing.))

[spoiler]damn[/spoiler]
