[u]I hate to break it to you but those plasma swords aren’t going to do much against me.[/u]
*She held her right arm up, an energy shield forming from the gauntlet.*
[u]Keep those barriers up Silver, I’ll stop them before they can reach you.[/u]
*She dashed toward the nearest one, bashing him with the shield. The second it hit him, it sent a shock throughout his body.*

"I can't keep doing that though!" The grunts opened fire on Sapphire, the melee ones pulling out their own one-way, energy riot shields to block Sapphire from attacking them while they fired upon her. Silver got as low to the ground as she could while bullets whizzed by her head.
-
*She stood there for a few seconds, blocking the bullets. Unlike Sapphire, Silver wasn’t bullet resistant. She would’ve normally gone ahead and turned every criminal into a stain on the pavement, but she had Silver to protect.* *Holding the shield to block any bullets heading toward Silver, she wrapped her other arm around the small woman.* [u]Wrap your arms around my neck.[/u]
-
"O-Okay..." Silver did as Sapphire said, wrapping her arms around Sapphire's neck. The few dozen men continued to open fire, reloading quickly when their magazines ran low.
-
*There was a blue flash behind Sapphire and a loud [i]fwoosh.[/i] They flew up into the air, landing on the roof of a building. The shield disappeared and Sapphire began princess-carrying Silver. She jumped from roof to roof, heading back toward the Dojo.*
-
Silver giggled, holding on tightly. "Well, someone got to rescue a princess today, my hero..."
-
[u]Of course, I would do anything to save the princess.[/u] *She smiled within her helmet as she spoke. The jump pack greatly cut down on how long it took to get where. They were a quarter up the steps already.*
-
"Now...please...get me to a hospital...." Her voice got quieter as she let go of Sapphire and went unconscious. Noticeable spots of blood began to form on her dress as if she were wounded underneath.
-
*She squeaked and spun around, taking Silver to a hospital.* *** *When Silver awoke, it would be in a hospital bed with Sapphire sitting in a chair next to her. The blinds had been drawn closed, probably for privacy purposes.* [u]Are you feeling alright?[/u]
-
"Sapphire?" Silver healed far faster than a normal person, sitting up in bed and looking over at Sapphire.
-
*She nodded, smiling.* [u]Yep. I brought you here.[/u]
-
Silver smiled back, happy to see a friend. "Thanks, I only stopped the those bullets in one sense...still took the injuries."
-
[u]Well, I’m relieved to see you’re okay.[/u] *She scooted her chair closer.* [u]I had been considering giving you a call.[/u]
-
"Really? I would've loved to hangout with you today, but I'm going to be in here for a while. They want to make sure nothing bad happens, like the bullets were cursed or something. The doctors here are very cautious with the Dojo around here."
-
*Her ears flatten sadly.* [u]Aww... I was really looking forward to going to dinner with you...[/u]
-
"Dinner? Hmm....Well, I could get us out of here without them noticing." She smirked at Sapphire. "I'd love to go eat dinner with you, I'm staving."
-
*She smiled back.* [u]Let’s go then! But tell me if you start feeling weird or bad and I’ll bring you back. You were out for quite a while though, they treated for a lot of that stuff so I think it’s unlikely.[/u]
-
"I'll be fine, just turn around so I can get dressed." Silver got out of bed and put on her clothes that were set aside beside it.
-
*Sapphire turned around like she had asked and turned back around once she was dressed.* [u]Ready?[/u]
-
"Ready!" Silver wrapped an arm around Sapphire. The two would instantly find thenselves outside the hospital. "Now, where are we going?"
-
*She looked around in surprise, but then remembered Silver’s magic.* [u]Well, I was planning to decide that with you in the call. Have you heard of any good places?[/u] *She wrapped an arm around Silver as well, seeming more confident with contact now than when they had initially met.*
-
"No, not really. I'm still getting to know this place." She sighed. "Do you have any idea?"
-
[u]Yeah. There’s a quiet seafood place not too far from here with some pretty good fish. A table for two wouldn’t have much in the background to distract us.[/u]
-
"That sounds great! We can talk and get to know each other better. Lead the way, Sapphire."
-
*She smiled and kept her arm around Silver, strolling to the restaurant. It was somewhat small, but quite clean and atmospheric inside. They had a table for two in the corner, one of only five groups of customers in the entire restaurant.*
-
Silver sat down with a smile, gazing around. "This is rather nice, Sapphire."
