NORTHVIEW
Medbay
Minnie burst through the medbay doors with a shourt of "Mac! It's Xander, he got beat up real bad! You have to help him!"
Mackenzie nearly fumbled and dropped the instruments he was hastily filing away. Everything was happening so fast at this point that work had turned into...
NORTHVIEW
Mackenzie hummed in satisfaction at the child's response, ceasing the movements. "Good. It's supposed to-"
He stopped speaking momentarily, flinching slightly at Harry's sudden outburst. Well, temporary memory loss was expected after waking up from a coma. Hopefully he'd come to his...
Northview
Mack didn't even wait to fully hear Cabrera's order, rushing past him and into the high school, making a beeline for the infirmary. The kid was out cold with blood tricking down his forehead. Mack hadn't gotten a good look at the accident involving him, but major blunt force trauma was...
The Prison
Jamie's Bedroom
"Gunderson! Gunderson, get up!"
Hard and repetetive knocks on wood gradually dragged Jamie out of sleep, and with a groan he found the energy to lift his head to stare blearily at his still shut door. He had a lot to say about his sudden promotion, but at least he was...
collab between @Togy and @Bullyboy Squad
The morning after Samaritans raided Northview...
The light of dawn was gloomy with the gray clouds hanging above the high school ground and showering it with drizzle. As if the sky mourned the events of the night. The metallic clatter in the empty...
Arcturus
"Excuse me!" Arcturus yelled over the panicked throng of people flowing past him, trying to stop every individual that came close to him and being shoved away in return, "Excuse me-have any of you seen a close friend of mine!? He goes by Ozzy, rather bland clothing decorum, drab black...
SCENE 2
Fight Or Flight
The office was silent for some time as the two men awaited their dinner. King sat in his throne, filing his nails while his guest Gunderson sat across from him. King would look up periodically to make sure the soldier was still there but had nothing to say just yet...
Scene 2
Fight or Flight
Jamie was still talking even as Marco reanimated behind him, retelling their heading and position on the map after almost every minute change. When he was nervous-and he was really fucking nervous today-he defaulted to running his mouth. The habit had gotten him chewed...
ARCTURUS
"I'd like to apologize," Arcturus began as he was dragged forward and into a cell by a man twice his size and a beer belly thrice his size. The man remained stoic as he shoved Arc into the cell and locked it behind him.
"I can understand how you could misconstrue my intent," Arcturus...
SCENE 2 Fight or Flight
Rockyβs body fell past Jamie, landing by his feet with a thud on the helipad. Dumbstruck, Jamie lifted a hand to the blood spray coating his cheek, fingers coming away wet with blood. The sounds of the propellor faded as Jamie stared at the body before the sight of a...
Gemini Quaid
"You've put your affairs in order, correct?" were the first words Sargent Michel greeted Gem with as he stepped out of the cruiser escorting him, "Last will and testament?"
"Everything goes to Marv," Gem slammed the cruiser door shut and slapped the roof to send the driver back...
Scene 2 The Helicopter
Rocky called up to him in response, voice wavering and lacking any sort of confidence as he said "Alright, just tell me what you need."
Jamie, fumbling slightly with his tools on the servo control, huffed in clear impatience. "I just told you-Keep up, man! I need you to...
Scene 1
The Convoy
Mackenzie stood to the side, arms crossed as the Northview crowd formed around him. This, well and truly, was a complete shit show. They hadn't even put up a fight and the high school was already kneeling like a kicked dog. Maybe it was for the best this way. No one had...
Scene 2
Fight or Flight
Jamie all but shoulder-checked the roof access door, stumbling out into blessed daylight. He stayed in place just long enough to watch everyone rush up the stairwell and outside, taking the momentary break to massage his bad leg. The knee and joints were aching like they...
Tenzing Norgay
Tenzing followed maybe half of the conversation before nearly passing out. As the man in front of him talked, his eyes slowly began to droop lower and lower with each blink, threatening to fall asleep on the spot before he sat back up blinked himself awake again, only to repeat...
Scene 2
Fight or Flight
More than twenty hours awake and your decision-making goes to shit. He'd been told something like that during basic training somewhere between getting dragged out of bed by his feet and a two-mile run through the rain. And-god, he really didn't want to think about his...
Tenzing Norgay
"-Then hang a left once the Brazil Nut trees turn into Nutmegs and you should be back on track."
"Got it. My left, or your left?"
"Your lef-How it would be my left? I'm on the radio."
"Oh," Tenzing said between a yawn, barely listening anymore as he fought his body's basest...
SCENE ONE
The Convoy
Mackenzie slowly fed the paste into Harry's feeding tube, careful not to pour to quickly and possibly choke the man. Mackenzie had to give Harry food and water by hand two times a day via an improvised feeding tube he'd made himself. Harry couldn't eat solid food, given how...
SCENE TWO
The Helicopter
Jamie blinked his bleary eyes awake, squinting at the unfiltered sunlight as someone opened the car door next to him. He was halfway through saying something intelligent like 'What?' when a duffle bag loaded with tools and spare parts was thrown into his gut, driving...
...the prisoners and soon they were closing in to what looked like a fortress from afar. But as they closed in it turned out to be a prison compound.
***
The captives were walked across the main prison building, earning a lot of hungry and curious stares and some lewd cat calls. Eventually...
