Acension:Metro

[Rayleonarde]

Ray returned the embrace. "Thanks." He smiled. "Let's go hit that store."

[Aconitum]

Acon nodded and released him.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray smiled, and started off down the street. He didn't notice that only after a few feet, he was leaving crimson splotches on the ground.

[Aconitum]

Acon looked down at Ray's feel and her eyes widened. She looked back up to Ray and furrowed her brows. "That doesn't hurt?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray turned, and walked backwards. "What? I'm fine. The ground isn't too bad, actually." He chuckled, and turned back towards the way he was going.

[Aconitum]

Acon stayed silent and averted her eyes in the opposite direction.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray stepped into a relatively untouched store, and started to rummage. The splotches had grown, from splats to full footprints. Ray seemed neither worse for wear, or none-the-wiser.

[Aconitum]

Acon watched Ray, feeling a bit useless. She shifted from one foot to the other.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray spotted Acon in a reflective surface. "Y'know, there's probably something over in the medical department.  I don't know what you need."

[Aconitum]

Acon nodded and went off to see what she could find.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray pulled the last of the useful stuff from the shelf. He looked around to find Acon, leaving bloody pawprints wherever he went.

[Aconitum]

Acon walked out to find Ray and smiled at him. "Ready?"

[Rayleonarde]

Ray nodded, and hitched his pack higher. "You know it. Wanna keep going, or head back?"

[Aconitum]

"Head back." She rubbed her head and moved toward Ray.

[Rayleonarde]

Ray handed Acon a few painkillers, and started towards the metro. He didn't see his blood trail, as he was watching the skies. "I hope that damn thing doesn't show. Scared me to death."
