RACE TO THE BOAT

[sparednothing]

[After that message it's time to pack up and get the heck out of dodge. Both teams have a short trek across dinosaur infested territory to get to the docks, where the cruise ship is waiting to whisk them away. There are a ange of hervibores, and whatever surviving raptors better them and it.

The remaining adult T-Rex seems mysteriously absent throughout all of this, as is Tembo. Weird]

[[No sections make your own. If you want a mod NPC'd dinosaur, please ask for one in the comments (and specify herbivore or raptor), otherwise, NPC your own. Powers are still functioning | Day four ooc post | Plot hub]]

[Church shoots at the ones attacking Lara. Managing to wing one of them.]

Look out!

[lara_the_explorer]

[Lara managed to kill one of the raptors that attacked from behind despite being knocked down and sustaining scratch wounds on her arm, while Church managed to bring down the other. The third raptor leaped at the armored man unchallenged, trying to bite his helmet off, but it was too strong.]

[Church gets knocked to the ground by the weight and force of the raptor attack. Thankfully it can't bite through the helmet, but the teeth scrape and scratch against it. Claws look to find weak points in the armor or pry off the plates themselves.]

Ah! Son of a Bitch!

[lara_the_explorer]

[Lara got up and saw the raptor trying to bite Church's helmet off. She struggled to raise her arm, but she managed to shoot the raptor in the head. The gunshot didn't do the trick and her pistol was out of ammunition. The act only made the raptor shriek in anger.

Clenching her teeth, she grabbed the climbing axe. It was her last resort weapon in case the fight got too close and she was out of ammunition, and before the raptor could retaliate, she swung the axe and drove the sharp metal point in the gunshot wound on the raptor's head. It squirmed and swing it's claws wildly at Lara, giving her more scratch wounds.

When the raptor took it's last breath, she heard more approaching. These things won't give up... But the docks is close now. She tried to help Church up, leaving her axe and gun behind so they could make it to the ship]

[originalcopy]

Don't fuckin' worry about me.

[Church will wave her away. Christ she's getting torn up out here. They have to make it to the docks. He gets up and looks at the path they have to take. He's figuring out how these raptors act, there is less chance of an ambush on the ocean side of the path.]

Stick to the ocean side.

[He's going to keep himself between her and the thicker part of the jungle. He's built for this sort of thing. While a good kick from a raptor in the right place could puncture his armor and get to the electronics of his robot body... it isn't going to kill him. At least as far as he knows.]

[lara_the_explorer]

Alright.

[Lara nods and tried to stick near the water and ran with Church... It looks like they finally lost them. Lara looked behind her to see the remaining raptors fall back...]

There's the docks. Thank god.

[originalcopy]

God damn I never thought I'd want to see a boat so much.

[Church is going to flip the raptors off for good measure.]

[lara_the_explorer]

Yeah, me too. [Traumatic experience with a boat and all. She sighed and tried to catch her breath once they reached the docks and got on the gangplank. She puts her hand on his shoulder to ask]

Are you okay? Are you hurt somewhere?

[originalcopy]

Me? [He gives a short laugh] I'll be fine, you're the one that looks like they won a loosing battle with a cheese grater.

[Sure he probably looked pretty banged up, dented, scratched, chipped paint. Not to mention the mud, blood and other debris covering him. But it was all essentially cosmetic.]

[lara_the_explorer]

[Lara laughed a bit. His sense of humor is like Alex's]

These's aren't very bad. I've had worse. [Which is half a lie. It's true that she's had worse, but these wounds are pretty bad]

[originalcopy]

Still, blood is supposed to stay on the inside.

[Especially that much of it.]

Let's hope they have a good medic on board.

[lara_the_explorer]

[Lara looked at her wounds. It almost didn't hurt anymore... It could just be adrenaline, but it still bothered her even a little. She takes her jacket off to get a better look.]

I'll go look for a clinic. I can at least bandage these.

[Lara turned around to walk the other way. But she stopped to look at Church]

You did good back there.

[That's the closest "thank you" she's gonna give and walks away]

[originalcopy]

[He shrugs casually. It's more thanks than he probably deserves honestly. Still, she deserves thanks in return.]

Yeah... you weren't bad yourself.
