Manfred von Karma, ???. Part 2/2. [Semi-open Edgeworth, Kos-Mos, rescuers, etc.] makethemguilty January 16 2012, 03:53:08 UTC

Ten minutes would go by in this sort of suspension of nothingness, where time and meaning would cease to exist...Where Manfred himself was not a Prosecutor whose name had been smeared by murder or upheld to the standards of rigidity and absolute perfection every Von Karma was known for. Instead, he was nothing more than trillions of cells held together by the laws of nature, made whim to them now as he lie there breathing, if shallowly, immobilized.

What would it matter if he disappeared from existence here? Here was a nightmare, a plague of a city where he would not be missed. There was no one to ask for help, even had he wanted to.

He coughed, and tried to roll over, vaguely aware of his surroundings as though he'd been sucked into some kind of vortex.

His NV lay feet away, though incidentally it had flickered to life, showing a pale hand and a very dark room...the screen tinted with flecks of crimson as though it might have been immersed in a dark, red if indeterminate liquid...Going through bursts of static now and again.

Edgeworth had done all he could for the exterior of the building, and so he'd begin to venture inside to try to stabilize it from in there - and, perhaps, to find survivors. He was not the best person to search, being neither so physically capable as some of the other residents here, nor so able a healer, but he could do his part, and so he was listening closely as he worked.

And there - A noise. At once, he lifted his head, looking around him, searching for the source of that noise and following it up the steps, slowly and carefully. His NV was at the ready, prepared to call for help. And, indeed, but a few more steps up, and there was someone there -

And it was von Karma.

He was torn and bloodied from the injuries he must have sustained in that explosion. Edgeworth needed no medical training to know that, without proper attention, he would perish of those wounds. By his face, he was unconscious, and by the wounds and the debris even if he regained consciousness he would not be able to find help.

And what if I left him here?The ( ... )

What would it have done to his pride had he known it was Miles Edgeworth that found him there crumpled beneath a heap of rubble, his clothes already stiff with the precious vermilion of a Von Karma as his stitches had been torn open completely. Would he have been humbled by the other's choice, in the knowledge that perhaps he would be saved by the boy who had pronounced his hatred of him? Would he have cried lament over his crimes of the past and die a meaningless death? These things were possible, but as he lie there in a state not-quite-there, yet not-quite-gone, he had resolved to die quietly, if at all. He was not going to be indebted to this fool, whose very wish was that he became "nothing".

Ah, but Manfred…You had always wished for this day to come.A flicker of consciousness and he stirred, but didn't wake fully, his inert form so still he may have been sleeping. But if so, if he were to give into this deceivingly tempting slumber he would not open his eyes again. Manfred von Karma's very short stay in Siren's Port would come ( ... )

Mind if KOS-MOS joins with her ridiculous feats of strength? needtobecleaned January 16 2012, 07:26:45 UTC

Since KOS-MOS hadn't met Manfred in person, she had no life-signs to go off to trace him but she could trace the call she received on her NV. That made it fairly easy to locate him and with her skills and it wouldn't be difficult to reach him and to pick up anything on top of him. Part of her was glad not to be human. As far as she knew, large amounts of blood often had a subtle scent to them that could make humans violently ill.

"Allow me to assist you." She said, joining the other man, Edgeworth she recalled, she moved the heaviest of the debris. She's lifted heavier and fought things much stronger than what had fallen on von Karma.

A scan of Manfred's body indicated various injuries and a severe loss of blood. Any other time, she'd use Medica to treat his injuries but with the damage to the building and all the people trapped still, she'd have to settle for carrying him to safety and leaving him in capable hands.

"He is in need of emergency treatment."

GO KOS-MOS GO. FIGHT THE GNOSIS and also the big chunks of rubble. mentis_reae January 16 2012, 15:56:01 UTC

Edgeworth had scarcely heard the woman approach, and so his eyes snapped up in surprise and no small amount of guilt. Had she been there as he stood over his mentor, spending those precious seconds cravenly debating leaving him to his death? No - certainly not, he reflected, watching her as she crisply and efficiently came onto the scene and began to work. She'd have simply walked past him and done her work, which included -

"Be careful - " he bit out as she seized a block far too heavy for any single person, let alone a woman of her frame, to budge. But she lifted it easily and set it aside. Edgeworth stared until he placed her - the woman who had called herself a weapon, KOS-MOS - and then simply shook his head. He'd seen more remarkable things in this place than that, he supposed.

"All right." He took in a deep breath and nodded to her. "I can administer some aid, but I fear I will be quite useless afterwards. Would you be capable of - helping me, as well as him, afterwards?"

Order: Kos-Mos, Edgworth, Manfred? makethemguilty January 17 2012, 00:20:07 UTC

Another cough and he gasped, true pain clouding his eyes as the slab was removed, an agony he had never known swelling within his chest with every breath. The pressure from the stone and metal had kept him from fully feeling the break in his ribs, thus when that was suddenly lifted from him he tried to scream, only to find his vocal cords felt as though they'd been severed. Instead, a pathetic sound he didn't even recognize as his own voice breathed out a strangled cry.

"G-ghnnnn.."

Trembling, his hand fell limply, his sight beginning to fail him as the room blurred in and out.

Is this...Where it all finally ends?He never would have thought he would die in this foolish manner ( ... )

Sounds good~ needtobecleaned January 17 2012, 07:04:58 UTC

"I can provide any necessary assistance to you both." She looked over von Karma, trying to find where the largest loss of blood was coming from. KOS-MOS knew what had to be done immediately to ensure his survival: apply pressure to stanch the flow of blood and keep his neck from moving in case of a hairline fracture.

Edgeworth knew what to do though, so she made her priority ensuring that the two of them were able to exit the building safely. If necessary, she could carry them both. A flicker of blue in her eyes, gone before anyone would really notice but her words after are softer and more encouraging then they might normally seem.

"Mr. von Karma, please try to remain conscious. In your condition, I do not believe it is safe."

mentis_reae January 18 2012, 04:29:37 UTC

"All right." Edgeworth nodded once, then looked down at the sad, crumpled form of the man he'd feared so completely. Even injured, he'd cut a fearsome figure at the party those few nights ago, but like this, pinned and helpless and fighting even for consciousness...He looked human. That was a revelation indeed, that he could be human rather than some god or ancient monster, so it was with a twist of ill uncertainty that he knelt down beside him.

"I'm not going to do much here. Only enough to stanch the bleeding and make it safe to move him." He looked up at the young woman to catch an odd expression in her eyes, but it was quickly gone; he pushed his surprise to the side, focusing on more pressing matters. "I should still be in a fit state to move. After that, we move him outside, and I'll take care of some of the more egregious wounds. Then we'll put him into the care of the paramedics. All right?"

He didn't wait for a confirmation before lowering his head, his hands pressed against the man's arm. He focused on how things should be ( ... )

Many apologies for my late! makethemguilty January 21 2012, 04:26:24 UTC

She may as well have been speaking to him through water; his ears felt as if he were submersed in the unforgiving seas of the Atlantic, though that may have been due in part to the shock induced by his injuries as well as an onset of temporary deafness due to the explosion ( ... )

Wth LJ, where'd my comment go?? 8| needtobecleaned January 23 2012, 04:42:00 UTC

KOS-MOS watched, interested, as Edgeworth worked. Scans of Von Karma's body showed damage being reversed, enough that he wouldn't die when moved. It was fascinating to behold, for someone who didn't use, or have the ability to use, Ether skills. Even the android was impressed, despite being from thousands of years in the future. Perhaps that was why she was impressed, considering another part of her had died a couple thousand years before this as well.

When Edgeworth was done, and as much of the mans body was healed as could be for the moment, the woman carefully lifted him. At this point, jumping down from this floor was out of the question so she had to find an alternative route for the three of them to travel. Which was much easier said than done, since KOS-MOS didn't get here by normal means. A path was found, after a few moments of scanning though; it must have been the way that Edgeworth had used to get here himself.

"Please, stay close to me in case any monsters manage to make it this far past any outside defenses."

HUFF sorry for the lateness! mentis_reae January 27 2012, 04:20:32 UTC

"Right," Edgeworth said, getting just a bit unsteadily to his feet. For once, he'd actually managed to not exhaust himself. Too often, he had to take a number of minutes after healing in order to regather his strength, but all he felt now was a bit of weariness, a bit of dizziness, a bit of nausea.

Maybe because you don't want to see him healed all that badly.

"Don't go too quickly at first," he said, then swallowed and nodded. The man in her arms did look...sad, and frail, and rather absurd given the woman's slightness and apparent weakness. It was strange to witness. Yet he couldn't spend too long dwelling upon it; with a jerk of his head he indicated that they should move forward.

Sorry guys; Archives need to get transferred over. Too distracting to play on both. makethemguilty January 31 2012, 07:53:03 UTC

Thankfully he couldn't rightly feel the break in his ribs or he would have been screaming. In fact he couldn't rightly feel much of anything, such as it was. The numbness flowing through him was a small mercy, all things considered ( ... )
