Loki's warning had done a lot of things except what it was probably intended to do, which was scare her off of Pes. Instead he'd told her just where the horseman was and she'd "borrowed" the first car she could and driven like hell. Pinpointing the field where Loki had done the deed wasn't that hard, everyone was talking about the freak lightning strike, but trying to find Pestilence herself was even hard. Faith had no idea how she was going to do this, she'd just had the sense of mind to bring a tarp, gloves, and one of those surgical masks. A baggy sweatshirt and sweatpants completed her far from normal look because she doubted Pes was going to be in any frame of mind to do her any favors.
It wasn't until she saw the blackened body that the severity of this, and how out of her league she was, sunk in. "Pes, can you hear me? It's Faith. Gonna get you out of here. Fix you up good as new or somethin' like that. Try not to kill me, ok? Won't do either of us any good that way."
Oh hell. That wasn't any good. Pes was barely recognizable as anything other than disease and decay if the plant life around her was anything to go by. She wasn't sure how the hell she was going to do this. "Can you hear me? Twitch or something if you can."

Flinching away, she curled up and then shuddered, moaning as the movement sent a wave of pain through her.
