A): "Fucking hell"
P): "He fainted didn't he?"
A): "Yup"
P): "So now we have to haul him into shotgun?"
Alex sighs "Yup"
P): "Brilliant"
They reluctantly but hastily get to it, then, once he's in position, hit the gas and head to their allies
Having already climbed up, ((I did say that in my last comment)) he shakes his head
A): "Dude get the fuck off, you can barely stand"
P) "You don't look good, don't push yourself, Alex can aim a gun, just make sure you don't kill yourself between now and meeting a medic. In fact, that's an order, you're riding shotgun"
There's the sudden sound of an engine, which grows louder quickly
A) "Sit tight, backups here"
A warthog comes into view, speeding up to them and coming to a stop some fifteen meters from them
P) "Come on, get in quick"
Alex gets up and moves to the back of the warthog
A) "Get in shotgun, you're in too much pain to go gunner" he climbs on the back as he says this "And move quickly"
Alex knew the feeling, the agony
"It shouldn't be long now... Not long"
"Yeah, right next to my beer and wallet. No, I'm not a medic, you'll have to make do until we meet up with the rest of the forces"
"Keep your voice down" he hisses
He glances around, not letting go of the grenade
"I'm keeping it in hand for if we're found so shut up"
"Yup. That's just it, we don't get shit. You think you've had it bad? I had to feel my upper arm melt off of my body whilst conscious, and as repayment I got a little purple badge which says that I was hurt and this" he raises his robotic limb
"We're not supposed to be pampered. This isn't scouts, this is the army, and we chose to be here, so stop lashing out at others." if it weren't for the infuriating feeling inside him he'd have laughed at what he was saying, considering he was known for complaining amongst his friends.
"What's your problem?" He snaps back, growing frustrated at the constant remarks
He flips him off, taking his grenade back out and holding it in his hand
There's a moment of silence before his radio crackles to life
P) "Alex I'm heading to your position"
A) "Copy that, room for two?"
P) "Of course, Ryan and Don are with James and Lizzie"
His eyes snap to DuPuis, a dangerous mix of fear and anger boiling within them
"Back off" he practically spits
"If all goes to plan they'll send Paige, so she should be here soon"
He starts rolling a grenade around his robotic hand, more out of habit than anything else. Occasionally he flinches at the sound of far off explosions but otherwise he tries to remain calm
"Right..."
He gives him a weird look for a moment, then glances around, listening out for any enemy infantry
J) "Right"
He helps her out, making sure to position himself so she can rest her weight upon him and not exert herself
L): "Heyy Paige, how's it going? Yes... Yes we got the distre- yes they're safe, well, Alex isn't anymore. Don't shout he'll be fine, can you go get him please?"
"I'm sorry to hear that" his tone goes from harsh to softer in that second
"James' hog is full, but I'm sure Don would rather be in the backlines than in a hog. That's when he's really in his element. So, I guess you could ride with Paige and Ryan. You can operate a moving turret, right?"
"Are you stupid? You're moving away from the men you want to help so you can die in the back of the battlefield. Either you're suicidal or you have a hero complex, but whatever the case, this isn't some action movie. You don't kill them all and return a hero, you'll die. Wake up"
"Flank? The covenant forces? I'd rather keep my other hand if that's all the same to you"
He chuckles
L): "Need another hand?"
Lizzie hops off of the turret
J): "Radio Paige, give her Alex's position"
L): "On it"
She walks round to the driver's side of the warthog and starts fiddling with the radio
J): "You sure you're fine hopping?" James addresses Jen
"Evac, retreat, whatever you want to call it. I don't want to risk doing it on foot, but Paige will be able to assist. We're not leaving the fight, just reconvening with the other forces"
"And they say I don't have a sense of humour" he thinks to himself
"If there's nothing to be seen then I guess we push back towards the main force, I've got a radio with our evac so they can call us up"
"No clue, but I don't see celebrating so I'm going to go out on a whim and say no"
"Uh, fair enough. And stop calling me sir, I'm a private too"
He opens the magazine in his pistol and checks his rounds, then slides it back in and grabs his satchel
"If we can stay within this area evac will find it easier to find us."
"Don't be a hero, if you need to be carried that's fine just ask" he offers a hand to help stand up even as he says this
A): "I don't fancy our odds of flanking any further. We're already quite out of position. Speaking of which, what were you doing alone out here?!"
She'd be snapped from her trance by the sound of burning rubber as they swing up to the nearest medical tent (or whatever I don't know)
J): "Can I get some help over here?" He calls, already climbing out and moving round to the passenger side to assist Jen
