[u]It's only a cave... Come on.[/u]
*She creeps up towards the entrance and taps something on her helmet. The two yellow lenses immediately light up like spotlights.*

-
[b]Allister drew his handgun, pointing it in the cave as he creeped inside [/b]
-
*It was deep and dark stalactites extended down from the ceiling, dripping water on to stalagmites below.* [u]Now that can't be good...[/u] *Along the right wall of the cave which Sapphire was currently focused on, were bloody four-fingered handprints leading deeper into the cave as well as a blood trail.*
-
"I say dip, forget about this is."
-
*She turns around, looking confused although her face is covered by the helmet.* [u]What?[/u]
-
"Blood on the walls, distress signal? Sorry to say, but they're gone."
-
[u]Sphirinians have more than a cup of blood in their bodies, and we still need to know what a Sphirinian is even doing here![/u] *She says, seemingly getting angry at his eagerness to leave.*
-
"Dammit." [b]He crossed his arm over his chest and clicked a button his shoulder. A shoulder mounted flashlight turned on, and he pointed his hand gun into the cave with his light [/b] "Don't just stand around then, let's get in there." [b]He started going deeper into the cave [/b]
-
*She says something in Sphirinian that he can assume is extremely offensive. But before he can say anything back, a male voice replies in the same language from deep inside the cave.*
-
"Well hang me by the toes and call an Italian Fascist, there's a survivor."
-
[u]You think?[/u] *She says before calling back in Sphirinian and then sprinting deeper into the cave.*
-
[b]Allister sprinted after her, weapon still raised [/b]
-
*He can hear them conversing in Sphirinian as the male voice slowly seems to be getting closer.* [u]Alright, he's been shot and so he hid in this cave. His tissue regenerator is broken so he's in really bad shape...[/u]
-
"But who is he?"
-
[u]He says his name is Derun'Sano...[/u]
-
"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!"
