The Nuclear Base/Power Plant.

The Boss raises a hand. "I'll get a doctor!"

[Mistress Guendolen]

Elise looked back at her. "It's... already taken care of," she said. She really didn't have the energy to argue anymore; she was distinctly flagging, and wondered if the special anaesthetic the doctor had given her was starting to wear off. Just a little longer, just until we get out of here.... "But... thanks anyway," she added. Show some kindness, that not all people were bad. Maybe then, this poor misguided girl wouldn't feel she had to try something like this again....

Black Jack was inside a clear, airtight tent. As Xiao got a closer look, he could see that Rose's chest cavity was open, and Black Jack had apparently reset a rib. Black Jack closed the chest cavity, and began sewing Rose back up.

"Yes. Just let me close her up." He stitched Rose up with fingers almost too fast to follow, leaving almost no sign that her chest had been operated on.

He finished a few last minute details, and motioned for Pinoko to stop the anasthetic, and wake Rose up. Pinoko did so, and moved away from her monitor.

Black Jack nodded to Xiao, leaving the tent. "Yes. Just let me get a new pair of gloves, and I'll be ready. Who's the patient?"

[Xiao]

"The guy who you operated on first, I believe his name is Ghent or something close."

[Chibi MitchellTF]

Black Jack nods, and mentally corrects Xiao. "Can he move? We've already set up a sterile tent here. If he can move, it would be easier to move him here, then to set up in a different location. It would actually decrease the risk of infection as well."

[Xiao]

"If not, we could probably move him here," Xiao responded, "Just a moment." He finished before walking back to the core of the area and entering the chamber where all the others were, "Alright, we'll need to get him to a tent which is just outside the building, can you move?" he asked as he approached.

[Mitera Nikkou]

Tetsuo leapt down from the platform and landed upon the ground floor of the room.

"I can get him there quickly." She volunteered. "It doesn't look like he's in any condition to get anywhere by himself."

The Boss was still on her mind, but she figured that this issue was more important for the time being.

[Mistress Guendolen]

"I... if he needs help, I can do it. Xiao will help too, if necessary," Elise said. "Thank you for the offer, but we need you to stand guard...." Her head angled quietly towards the Boss. After all, once the shock recovered, she might decide to try to continue.... "Can you do that, for us?... And, Genno? Can you stand up? I- you can lean on me, if you like...."

[Mitera Nikkou]

"I guess so..." Tetsuo replied uncertainly, regarding the three that were injured and/or seemingly-fatigued to some degree or another.

It made her realize that she hadn't really been able to do all that much; why else would she still have so much vitality? Well, all that really mattered was that things got settled, but it still bothered her a bit when she reflected upon her lack of usefulness. She decided that she'd just have to work on improving herself in the future.

She soon pounced upon the Boss' back, grasping her around her arms with her own.

"You've been a bad girl." She muttered around one of the Boss' ears, which she was gnawing on.

It came as a bit of an impulse, really.

[Mistress Guendolen]

OOC: Nikkou, that ear-gnawing is just too cute, I hope you know that. It made me laugh.

[Chibi MitchellTF]

The Boss wriggles. "Hey stop that. That's not...actually, as you were." she closes her eyes, and purrs lightly. "Can't take over the world, maybe I can at least enjoy the last bit of freedom I get."

[Teddy]

Genno slowly stood up, shaking slightly. "..I can move. Put one foot in front of the other..." He began to move towards Xiao, then almost fell. "Elise? Can I lean on you?"

[Mistress Guendolen]

"Of course. I just said you could, didn't I?" She scrambled to her feet and hurried to his side, tucking her shoulder under his so he could put his arm around her, putting hers around his back. "There. We should manage, now. I'm stronger than I look...."

[Teddy]

"Thanks." He leaned on her heavily but now seemed to be walking fine. Whether it was because he drew on Elise for strength or was merely using his injuries as an excuse to be close to her remained to be seen.

[Mistress Guendolen]

"You're more than welcome..." she said softly, slowly moving forward, helping him along. It didn't matter to her how heavily he leaned on her. As she said, she was stronger than she looked. And well, if he just wanted an excuse to be close, well, she didn't mind that, either. Part of her was wondering about... well... her confession. Had he heard it? Did he remember it? How did one ask someone, Oh, by the way, were you aware of anything when I announced how I feel about you? She was going to have to bring this up sometime soon, but just how to was kind of tricky....
