✦The First Strike

[amomentoffaith]

[There seems to be a man lying somewhat limply on one of the seats. His pilot suit is torn in areas and his helmet is cracked. Although he seems to be out cold, eventually he stirs. Sitting up, he removes his helmet, showing a head of blond hair encrusted with dried blood.]

I'm... alive. Where...? [He looks around, confused. A thought comes to mind

[There's an assassin Yuri sitting nearby, leaning back and staring at the roof. Not that you'd notice, since his nice hat is covering his eyes. His curiousity is piqued by the mention of Rita and Raven, though he ends up writing it off as a coincidence sinice he hasn't looked at you yet.]

Your friends are by your side no longer. You'd best get used to it -- it'll be a long while before you can see them again.

[amomentoffaith]

[Flynn's head snaps over to where Yuri is sitting and doesn't quite register the voice yet. He takes a few steps closer to Yuri's position, keeping a hand on his gun.]

Then where are we. [Was he captured? But security seemed too lax for that...]

[bloody_justice]

You're on a train that goes nowhere. It has currently taken several people from their home worlds and dumped them here.

[Yuri shifts a little, his hand going for his own gun.]

Do you plan on shooting me with that?

[amomentoffaith]

You expect me to believe something like that?

...Only if you attack me first.

[D-don't kill me, it had to be done...]

[nightcrossed]

[Tear is wandering around the train, this time she is conveniently carrying the rappig around. Losing him in a place like this means that she'd probably never find him again.

She pauses to assess the situation in an unfamiliar car. A pilot? Blood? This isn't good. Wait a minute. He looks sort of familiar.]

...Guy?!

[She hurries forward and then stops abruptly.]

Wait. But, you aren't--...
Excuse me, but, by any chance, would you happen to be a mobile suit pilot?

Fffff, it's alright. XD Gundam!Tales characters, unite?

[amomentoffaith]

Guy? [Mistaken identity, perhaps? Oh well. More importantly, she recognizes that he's a pilot. This wouldn't turn out well if she asked what his affiliation was...]

Yes, I am. ...Can you tell me what country we're in right now? [Hopefully he can divert the topic...]

Sorry late reply is late,

[nightcrossed]

[Studies him for a moment with an unreadable expression, then she bows her head calmly.]

I apologize. From a distance, I believed that you were someone from home, but I was obviously mistaken.

I'm not entirely certain of our present location. Perhaps our coordinates aren't even static. You see, when I was looking out the windows from one of the dining cars, we were hurtling through outer space, and when I observed our surroundings through windows in other cars, sometimes I would see a huge metropolis and on other occasions we'd be traveling through forests. One time the landscape even indicated that we're beneath a vacant ocean. I've never witnessed anything as puzzling as this before.

[She pauses, resting her chin in her palm.]

Still, it's almost a relief to meet a pilot on this train... But more importantly, you should visit an infirmary. Those wounds appear quite serious.

Daniel was pretty used to seeing combat injuries, so he approached at a good distance and held up a hand.

"Hey, need some help?"

[amomentoffaith]

[Flynn turns to face the man. He's not showing much signs of injury, oddly enough.]

...I seem to be alright, but I suppose having someone else check wouldn't hurt.

[stuckonwrist]

"Right. Gimme a moment then."

Theres a slap on the wrist and a blur shoots out towards the medical car, gathering a first aid kit before it resolves back into Daniel in a flash of green light. He popped it open and took out some clean bandages.

[amomentoffaith]

[Just... stares.]

What was that? [Nonetheless, he moves closer.]

s-sorry i'm late. T^T had a busy day yesterday.

[novicegoddess]

[and as Estelle just can't bear to see people injured like this, she pays no mind to the fact that he looks oddly familiar and immediately jumps to 'OMG ARE YOU OKAY?!' D:

She rushes over to him with a gasp.]

A-Are you all right?! We should get you some medical attention, just in case!

[but ... medical attention? Where can she find that?]

S'okay~

[amomentoffaith]

[He sits up a bit more, turning to face the direction where the voice is coming from. Although his first thought is to say that he's fine, recognition hits and that answer is quickly forgotten.]

Estellise...? [This... wouldn't be good for Azadistan.]

<33!

[novicegoddess]

[oh yeah, uh, Flynn, you might notice that this Estelle is quiiiite a bit smaller than the norm. She's only thirteen. Oops. She begins checking him over to get a good idea of his injuries, but blinks and freezes at the sound of her name.]

... That's me. How do you know me ..? [after getting a good look at him, he looks a lot like that pop idol that had been making his way into the business, Flynn Scifo ... she'd only seen a little of him and heard only one of his songs, but he was talented, she'd give him that much.

... Oh, no. No time to be thinking about that, he was injured!]

A-Ah, nevermind, we can talk about that later! You need to see a doctor! [IS THERE A DOCTOR ON THE TRAIN? Honestly, her first instinct is to call for Yuri. That obviously solves everything.]

:3

[amomentoffaith]

We met in Azadistan. [...Although there was that thing about other worlds... which would explain why she looked so much younger.]

Hm? Don't worry, I'm fine. The bleeding seems to have stopped awhile ago. [He'll just brush away the bits of blood... he'll probably need a shower after this, actually.]
