*Li'l S nudges her and she turns around, jumping when she sees him.*
[u]Who are you?![/u]
English
-
"Something wrong?"
-
[u]What do you mean?[/u]
-
"You paused at the end..."
-
[u]Well, most people stop talking when they stop talking.[/u] *She says before replying back to the voice as they go deeper into the cave.*
-
"Heh. Real smart Alec."
-
[u]My name's Sapphire.[/u]
-
"You've never heard the term smart Alec before?"
-
[u]That's a term?[/u]
-
"Yeah, it's a term."
-
[u]A a term for what?[/u] *They suddenly round a corner and there is a Sphirinian soldier slumped against the wall. He seems to be a type of otter. He has his right arm over his stomach and he shakily raises his solar pulse rifle with his right, aimed right at Allister. He shouts something to Sapphire, and Sapphire shouts something back. Eventually, she manages to get him to lower his weapon before running up to him.*
-
"See! Told you it wasn't safe, he tried shooting me!"
-
*She just keeps talking to the Sphirinian as she lifts him up over her shoulder. She turns back towards Allister and begins walking out.* [u]He pointed the gun at you because you're a human and the only interaction he's had with humans involved him getting shot.[/u]
-
"What the shit happened then?"
-
*She asks him in Sphirinian and he says something back. Allister can specifically hear him say 'bigfoot' at one point.* [u]He says they shouted 'bigfoot' at him and then started shooting.[/u]
-
"He looks nothing like big foot..."
-
[u]I know... His feet are reasonably sized...[/u]
-
"I mean, he actually looks very nice."
-
[u]No... He isn't the worst looking guy I've met... He's passed out though so we better hurry to a safe place...[/u] *She says as they exit the cave.*
-
"Man you're low-key savage."
-
[u]Excuse me?[/u]
-
"You just called him ugly!"
-
[u]I called him moderately good looking...[/u] *She says, glancing back at him with a slightly confused look.*
-
"Yeah okay, If you say so."
-
*When they finally reach the Dojo, Sapphire's armor is covered in blood. She carefully lays him on the ground and then takes her helmet off. She holds it up to his head and it changes shape to fit is before she puts it on and locks it shut. Suddenly, the otter is surrounded by some sort of field of blue energy.* [u]There... Now I just need to wait a couple hours before he's done healing...[/u]
-
"So you're just going to trust him? Just like that?
