Toby glanced at River who just ran up to him. He shot a few more guards. Why isn't everyone leaving? He thought. He shot more guards, and then tossed his gun aside when it ran out of bullets. Toby pulled out his knife and started stabbing a guard. "You're the kid who stabbed me yesterday!" The guard growled. Toby slashed his throat, and the guard fell down.

Sherri runs.
Indigo tazes more people.

"Lachlan! Misty!" River growled. "We need to get out of here."
Lachlan's ears pricked at his mother's voice, and he raced to her side.
River glanced at Toby, and caught sight of a guard sneaking up on him, a knife clutched in her hand. River and Lachlan jumped at her, taking her down and ending her quickly.

Toby turned around just in time to see Lachlan and River take the guard down. "Thanks." He said. He ran up to Bleddyn and Wolfram. "We're leaving, now." He said, lightly tapping Bleddyn's shoulder to get her attention.

Wolfram let out a gasp of pain, releasing the masked man, and the creature dressed in black dropped onto the ground, blood pouring from his chest. He put his hand in his arm, and pulled it away, looking at it. His pale skin was coated in blood. Just great. EXACTLY what I need right now. He looked at Bleddyn."T-thank you."He stuttered."You saved me." Normally, he would have been humiliated to be saved by a girl, but instead he was thankful.

Bleddyn snorted wryly and turned away from him, far too distracted to focus in on his wound. "If we're being official about it, you saved me first. And also, we're not, because life-debt wise, I've incurred way too much." Her heart was roaring as it maniacally pumped adrenaline and she wasn't about to let him see how carelessly she'd let her composure flee.

So she had killed someone.
The experience was much less jarring than she'd previously envisioned.
While living the slightly psychotic daydreams of heroic grandeur that kids often entertained their sedentary minds with
-or maybe that was just her-
yeah, she'd seen herself efficiently dropping a few baddies to save the day for allies in peril. But each time there'd been a certain level of remorseful conviction involved.
Now, watching this member of a loathsome society lay still in a pool of the lifeblood she'd ripped from him, all Bleddyn was suffering was a simplistic feeling of emptiness. It was comparable to losing all emotions of hers by human right out the hole Mapleshade's knife had torn in her thigh.
If anything at all, she felt vaguely satisfied, and, honestly, disturbingly enthralled.
Additionally, she'd only ever killed in her mind to protect those who actually meant something to her.
Never had she ever imagined her first felled would be to keep a personal enemy's life intact.
Eh. Morals evolve.

Toby turned around just in time to see Lachlan and River take the guard down. "Thanks." He said. He ran up to Bleddyn and Wolfram. "We're leaving, now." He said, lightly tapping Bleddyn's shoulder to get her attention.

Bleddyn whipped around, dragged harshly out of her ethicality contemplations and on instinctual defense in lieu of actually being aware of her specific attacker. Gripped between white knuckles, the knife was low poised before her, capable of fatally accurate chest penetration for the shorter man.
Even after more than enough time had elapsed for her to recognize Toby, she continued to stand there silently with frighteningly blank eyes- as if waiting for him to make the first attack.

Toby flinched backwards, throwing his hands in front of his face. "Easyeasyeasy, don't stab me." Toby winced. The sudden movement made him feel like he re-opened his wound, and he moved a hand down to touch it. "Come on. Everyone needs to leave." Toby said, still holding one hand in front of his face.

"Don't get smart with me."Wolfram snapped. He looked at Toby."You look like a deer caught in the headlights. If we are going, then move it."He growled. He took a step towards Bleddyn. Dont impale me, I've already been stabbed once. I only have so much strength left to carry you. His thoughts wandered for a heartbeat, but then snapped to the present."You're going to have to help hold yourself up some, Bleddyn. And for goodness sake put the knife down."

Toby turned, and quickly walked away. He didn't want to wait any longer around Wolfram, since he seemed unpredictable. He stopped by the door and started attacking anyone who entered, while he waited for the others to catch up. He pulled out his ring of keys and moved them in between his fingers. He punched people, each time the keys would slash their faces. I wonder how long it will take before the ice melts, if it does. Toby thought, being reminded of the cold feeling in his stomach. He was worried he was going to accidentally pull the stitches out, or tear the skin around them and make his wound worse.

Bleddyn blinked a few times to clear the mental haze she'd been locked in. Even though the fear glittering in Toby's eyes and Wolfram's old anxiety-induced abrasiveness communicated that she'd startled them with her hasty aim, she didn't feel a need to apologize. Their fault for approaching me like that.
"You know what? I can do you one better. I can walk for myself."
With that contumacious declaration and knife still in hand, she pivoted on her right leg and limped through the pathway Toby was clearing with his armed fist.

Toby glanced behind him, and saw Bleddyn following him. In the brief moment he looked away someone took that moment to punch him in the face. Toby stumbled backwards and growled. He punched the woman back and kicked her into the wall, where he quickly killed her. He used her body as a shield as someone tried to shoot him, and then threw her into the nearest person attacking him. A sudden wave of dizziness crashed over him. Again? He thought. He leaned against the wall & started kicking at people by him.

Wolfram stared at her while she walked away."Fine!"He snarled."I'll just act like I don't care anymore, because for a fact, Bleddyn? I don't anymore!" But I do....Why can't she see that...I'm trying to help, but I was such a jerk before.....
