[Arrival] Guess Who's Back?
Characters: Vekk (OU), OPEN
Where: A park in the Complex
When: Probably a couple of hours after the start of the mod plot here.
Summary: While waiting for treatment following an Asura Gate explosion, Vekk finds himself once more on the Ring.
Warnings: Vekk's got some injuries, but it's mostly burns and cuts. Bad but not life-threatening. So, yeah, some blood.
Vekk grasped at his arm, placing pressure on a particularly nasty cut that had yet to stop bleeding. He hissed in pain as he accidentally clamped down on part of a burn. While it was unfortunate that this particular Gate had been one of those underground, the explosion causing debris to fall everywhere and destabilizing part of the surrounding rock, it was fortunate that it hadn't been in the open where some of the nastier above-ground creatures of Tyria would pick up the scent of blood and come looking for an easy meal.
One member of the Emergency Krewe walked up to him, a writing board in hand. "Name?"
"Vekk."
"Injuries?"
"Primarily burns and cuts." He nodded to where he had a grip on his arm. "This is the worst of it."
He released the injury as the Emergency Krewe member moved to study it. He wasn't surprised when he was handed a patch of linen and given no instructions. Basic first aid was something all Asura knew. Accidents had a tendency to happen during experiments after all. He re-gripped his arm, holding the linen patch in place.
"You'll have to wait a while."
"I understand. Thank you for--"
Suddenly, he wasn't below ground with the wails of the injured and the dying. He didn't hear the Emergency Krewe workers stabilizing the rock or tending to the wounded. He was outside, above ground. He hissed at the sudden brightness, his eyes properly adjusted for the dimness of The Depths, not the sunlight. He squinted as he waited.
When his vision cleared enough to see, he realized he recognized this strange place. He gave a grim smile.
"Well, what do you know?"
