[QUOTE="megamania, post: 2173393, member: 9255"] STRIKEFORCE: MORITURI SEGMENT 098 “Recover and Respond” Christina calls on her powerful healing powers to save the Captain’s life. Vander stands over her watching anything and everything. The Captain has nearly lost his entire none shield holding arm, he has deep cuts in his back and remaining arm. His armor has been nearly destroyed by the touch of the rust monster’s powers to degrade armor and metal in general. The Captain’s arm begins by glowing. The damage and lost portions of bone reform and nit first. The sweat and pressure is clear on her face. She suffers even as the Captain does. Once the skeletal framework is returned, she imagines and grows the nervous system followed by the meat of the arm. Suddenly the Captain snorts as if he was holding his breath for too long. The strain is taxing on him. The flesh grows and strengthens. Then fibrous tubes that fill with blood wrap them. As it reaches the fingers, new tubes fill with blood as it returns to the chest for more nutrients. During this, his back is slowly closing up also. Several humans wearing armor with drawn swords enter the area. They stop and stare at what they see. A powerful healer. They could use that for their own army. A powerful warrior. Another plus. And the other warrior looks strong but is without a weapon. Maybe that is why he lies on the ground nearly dead. “You are not with the goblinoids or the orcs. Who are you?” Asks the apparent leader. His short sword glows lightly in the dim light. Vander stares at the man. He is trying to place him. “Fal …Fal …. Fallard? Commander Fallard?” The man stops with renewed suspicion. “Who would know of my name yet I know thee not?” Vander will not answer. He is well known and wishes not to be considered an enemy here. “I am Dregoth.” He says remembering the legendary giant slayer from his home world. “We seek nothing that involves your war with Ten Bites.” “Ten Bites?” Says the man with confusion. “We fight the goblins known as the Black Fester. Lord Mixan help us if Ten Bites is involved.” Vander says nothing. After all, in THIS alternate universe perhaps she is not here. Even better, he hopes she is dead. Maybe there can be justice somewhere. “You have be moving on gentlemen…” speaks weakly Christina. “Lady of Healing- are you well?” asks the leader. Her face is wrinkled and lose-skinned. The spell still hurt her though it did not kill her as planned. “I …I will be alright. The Captain needed me first.” She then lets out her breath and focuses on herself. The skin tightens and softens then regains its prior color of youthful health. The sounds of a man running can be heard nearby. Everyone turns to look and a messenger with acid burns runs up. “An attack sir! The entire Falcon’s reach division was decimated by a fire driven golem and a lich that threw lightning and ice.” Vander’s sharp eyes spear into the man. “Where?” “Above ground and to the east. I believe it is a construct.” “Uhhhh, then we need to go…” says the Captain in a great deal of pain. “You need rest.” Says Christina looking weak herself. “The mission is what is important and we NEED Jean to complete the mission.” “How do we respond” asks the psychic warrior. “Direct.” [/QUOTE]
