*She looks up while keeping one hand hidden from the inside of the island*
"Who's there!!! Show yourself!!"
English
-
More tranq darts zip out of the woods and hit Blank in her non-robotic arm and leg, which go numb. A group of gas-masked, black-armored soldiers exit the woods, tranq rifles in hand. They attempt to pull Crane away from Blank's robotic grasp.
-
*She smirks as she pulls out her phase saber and cuts down the nearest ones* "Cowards!!!" [u]Foreign substance detected. Initiating locating and removal of substance.[/u] *She lunges forward as she slices at another soldier, cutting him down but causing her to fall to the ground*
-
More darts fill the air, and Blank staggers and falls as many hit their mark. Shockingly, the soldiers she'd thought eviscerated stand back up, no worse for wear. As darkness begins to cloud her vision, she sees Crane being lifted onto a stretcher by soldiers with medical markings. [b]What do we do with this one, sir?[/b] [b]Bring her. Maybe she can help us bring him back.[/b] [b]Yessir.[/b] Blank falls unconscious.
-
[u]Foreign substance increasing. Systems at 30%. Removal at 20% complete.[/u] [spoiler]this is in her head btw[/spoiler]
-
[u][b]Several Hours Later...[/b][/u] Blank awakens strapped to an examination table. The first thing she notices is that she is alone. The second is that her robotic limbs are unresponsive, and cannot be restarted, even by voice control.
-
"Goshdangit. Let's recap what happened. Guys in black jumped us while on route to a mission. Now strapped to a table and robot parts non-responsive. That's it." [u]Foreign substance 10% removed. Systems at full functionality. Additions non-responsive. Will attempt to restart. Est. Time: 10 mins.[/u] [i]At least that still works....[/i] *She sighs and relaxes against the straps, waiting*
-
((Srry. Was busy.)) Down the hall, you can hear the squeaking of wheels, which grows louder. A group of soldiers pulls a gurney into the room. His face, arms, and legs are covered selectively with heavy bandages, which seem to glow slightly. The man's left eye, which is the only one uncovered, turns to you. The man begins to speak quietly. [i]Remember remember remember. Why do I-[/i] He flinches. [i]You. I remember. A-cell. The reporter was my contact. You shot me. You know who I was and you lied![/i] He pulls free of the various medical devices strapped to him and falls to the ground, pulling himself toward Blank. The bandages on his arms pull away, revealing that his augments have been removed. Crane pulls himself closer to Blank, then falls again. He finally manages to pull himself close. His voice is plaintive, lost, confused. [i]Why did you lie to me?[/i] He collapses, managing to accidentally press the button to release Blank.

Edited by TwiggierTiger22: 8/19/2015 10:22:23 PM[u]Additions restarted. Calibration completed. Combat mode engaged.[/u] *She instantly jumps up as time seems to slow down* [i]One, two, 7 in total.[/i] *She draws her pistol with one hand as her saber slides down her arm into her other. She shoots the three in the back before they can draw their weapons, then jumps over Crane to slice into the front two soldiers. She ends her jump in a roll that takes her past the third soldier. She gets to her feet and slices the fourth down before pointing her sword and pistol at the third, her back to the door* "Alright, now where am I? Answer before my finger slips."
-
The other soldiers seem once again unharmed. The third gently pushes Blank's blade away with his hand, then slowly rises from the floor. [b]We're not here to hurt you. And we didn't launch those missiles. We dealt with the Psions who did. Now, if you would please notice the fact that you've torn your stitches open, we could get you some help .[/b]
-
*She stares at him before holstering the pistol and deactivating the saber* "So how do you do that? The invincibility trick." [u]Combat mode deactivated. Pain inhibitors shutting down.[/u] *Suddenly she staggers and falls to a knee* "Damn nanobots. Can't keep the pain inhibitors on for just a few minutes longer..."
-
The soldiers wave to a team of doctors and nurses, who quickly escort Blank to a safer Ward. [b]We're terribly sorry about all this, ma'am. Memory reconstruction is difficult surgery, and Stephenson is one of our best. We're sorry he attacked you like that.[/b] Behind them, the soldiers wrestle Crane into the restrained bed that once held Blank. He's screaming and sobbing, reaching out to Blank. [i]HELP ME! PLEASE, JUST HELP ME! [/i]
-
"What happened to him? He hit his head too hard?" *She stares at the once-Stephenson* [u]Repairs at 75% complete. Molecular production shutting down.[/u]
-
The doctors shrug as they work on Blank. [b]Memory reconstruction. We decided to put some real organs back into him, with stuff we stole from PROJECT RECOIL back on Earth. By the way, the General wanted to tell you that your mother is ... known to us.[/b]
-
[spoiler]I would avoid getting Shadow involved in this. She's an almost all magic character. (Not counting the weaponry she has at her disposal)[/spoiler] "Heh. Easy enough to believe. She likes to have a bit of fun whenever she can get it."
-
The doctor shrugs. [b]All done. Housing is on the eight level. [/b]
-
"Thanks. I think I can figure my way around here easy enough." *She shoots an odd glance at the former Agent now strapped to the table before turning to the doorway and walking outside*
-
As you leave, an elevator dings open. [i]Over here.[/i] You see a familiar figure leaning against the wall of the elevator.
-
Crane weakly stretches out his hand before falling unconscious.

Edited by Ex PI: 8/19/2015 10:39:08 PMThe man brushes himself off. "That's classified." Crane is still lying on the floor. He stares at Blank, confused and hurt. [i]Why did you lie to me? I saved your life, and you lied to me?[/i]

Oh ok
