His weakened shield unable to hold off against the force of the chain reaction. He had suffered severe internal bleeding from the blast. His whole back was severely burned and cut from the hunks of metal that had been embedded in his skin. He was wrapped,up and bandaged, life signs were stable but he still hadn't woken up since the incident the other day. Back to Top   Mike Rebecca Jefferson Legend Defense Will it be you this time?

She's been alternating between Silas and Mike's rooms since the incident when she can, and the stress is beginning to wear her down. Currently, she's just curled up in the chair, partially facing Mike, but also the doorway in case anyone else comes.

Her gaze darts to the heart monitor, then back to her friend, worry and hope mixing like cheep booze. "Mike?" She swallows with a suddenly dry throat, wondering if she should alert the medical staff or not.

He looks a mess after being blown up, and she's been gnawing on guilt for a while now. She leans forward, still waiting.

"Mike, can you hear me?" God she hopes so. She reaches out for the blanket, then hesitates. He'd taken the brunt of the explosion, and had the burns to prove it. Her hand drops back into her lap. This time, it's not because of her power that she's afraid of touching someone.

His whole body was pain. From the needle in his arm to the burning on his back still. His chest and lungs hurt. His heart hurt. It felt like his insides were all mashed up inside. But there was a familiar voice. Pleasant and unpleasant at the same time. He didn't really know what to say to her. "Is he alive...?"

"Waking up." There's relief in her voice as she turns her attention back to Mike, nodding with a small frown. There's a lot of complicated stuff in that single question. "Yeah, he is." She doesn't sound all that thrilled about it, though it's probably the fact that the first thing he's talking about is Silas in general. There better not be a round two from either of them.

Her eyes are still puffy, but she's not sure if it's the lack of sleep, emotional overflow, or both. "Days." Her voice is strained as she looks around for a calendar anywhere. "A really, really long time."

She was going to have to go ff of that, then. Which also meant curtailing part of the conversation for now. "How o you feel?" Aside from having a bomb explode and take you out.

"Like I got hit by a truck... and it exploded." His everything hurt. With some effort he'd turn his head to face Rhett. "It wasn't planned. He attacked me in the courtyard with some weapons when I refused to fight him there. When he used his gun I decided I was done and challenged him in the tutorial." The rest was history.

She knew that part, of course.  She'd read his file.   Silas had claimed his skill as having to do with tech, another twisted truth about the gadgets he'd made and she....she... She hadn't stopped him.  From doing stuff like this to the people who were on the same side. She really was stupid. « Last Edit: Nov 15, 2015 20:08:28 GMT -6 by Rebecca Jefferson » Back to Top   Rhett Shaffer Mentor Intelligence ....Hey yo.
