Ghost watches unbelieving as one of his fellow wanderers was hauled into a helo. He heard the man that had saved him yell off to his left, but never got to look. All he noticed when he fell onto the ground was that he was unarmed. He picked himself up and looked at the leader who was pulling a handgun out of a holster. The girl was gone. ((ooc: sorry for the swearing) That little traitorous bitch. he thought as Lucas leveled the handgun.
The first explosion was enough for the leader to lose his balance as well as his aim. Ghost then noticed his gun in the mud. It looked like a scar, sitting there in the mud. Scar. He liked the name and dove at it. A small piff came from behind him as well as a gunshot. The leader had missed him and was busy reloading when a second, larger blast blew Ghost forward through the mud.
There was a dull pain in his shoulder as a small metal piece impacted on the leather sheath for his sword. Scar was in his hands as he stood up, bloody and muddy, in the dark. That's when he noticed the man charging at the leader with a sword. Ghost looked around and found the girl in the shadows, being snuck up on by her own people. It took him a moment to realize that they had just shown up.
Ghost was stuck. Save the girl? Help the man? He quickly came to a compromise and fired a round at the leader. It didn't hit flesh, but Ghost wasn't aiming for flesh. The handgun went flying off into the night as Ghost turned back to the girl. He fired a shot at a keeper and hit a tree behind them. They turned and he grabbed the girl, covering her mouth, and receded into a shadow. "Don't ask me why...but I'm saving you. Your own guys were trying to take you out." He pointed at the keepers that were looking around frantically for them. "Just stay calm and don't say anything. Just know that he..." Ghost pointed at the leader for effect, "...wanted you dead and he.." He pointed at the man from nine,"...wanted to save you. So be grateful that I spared you Ms. Traverson." There it was. She now knew that she was a Traverson. I hope this won't be used against me.
