[meanwhile, out there, Peepers n Brad were the only ones that haven't made it bk to base]
Peepers: [was partially unconscious, buried underneath a pile of dead bodies both enemies n his troops alike. Like Fury, Hater n Peepers, his troops were completely wiped out, n he was also equally injured, completely separated from everyone else in the middle of the snowy blizzard of the north]
Brad: Peepers? Peepers! (helped dig him out from underneath the pile)
Peepers: Nnnhhh... (tired) [struggling to stay awake, blood loss getting to him]
Brad: (worry) Oh crap, oh crap, oh crap... (scooped Peepers in his arms and hurried back to the base)
Peepers: Nnnhhh...? H... Hot... Sh... Shot...? [his blurry vision caught sight of incoming enemies tht picked up his sound, pointing weakly behind him]
Brad: Shh, shh, save your breath. Don't push yourself. (kept running to avoid the enmies)
Peepers: [scrambled weakly for his laser gun, thankfully he had a spare hidden inside his boot, managed to pull it out just in time to shoot some of the enemies tht made a leap towards them] W... Watch ur... B...back... Nnnhh...
Brad: :) Thanks, princess. (held Peepers close to him)
Peepers: [rolled his eye weakly at tht name before he saw one suddenly popped out of the ground like a daisy in front of them n lunging towards them] Look out! [turned his body, freeing himself from Brad's arms as he lunged bk at the enemy, pushing it to the ground before it suddenly sunk its teeth onto Peepers' already bleeding arm] Aaahh!!!
Brad: :O No! (grabbed his sword and swung it at the enemy)
Peepers: [fell bk as the sword lopped off the enemy's head, tho he groaned as his arm started pulsating n sizzling, like it has injected venom into his arm]
Brad: :( We gotta get you back to the Medic Base, fast.
Peepers: N... No... I'll just slow u dwn... Leave me... Just go... Aahhh!!! [jerked hard as his arm seized again from the pain]
Brad: ...NO! (scooped up Peepers again and held him close the whole way back to the base)
Peepers: [soon passed out in his arms, getting paler as the venom continued to spread]
Brad: (quickly reached the base) Somebody? Anybody! (worry)
Soldier: [hears him enter n hollered for a medic]
Brad: :( (looked in great worry at the Watchdog in his arms) ...Please, hang in there, princess...
Medic: [soon arrived with the hovercraft bed n took Peepers, ushered him to the medic bay]
Awesome: [heard the commotion] Woah! Starlight, ur finally bk. Lord Grimm was abt to send a search party for u... [sees Brad's pale disheveled face] Wats wrong? Where's Peepers?
Brad: Peepers... got injected with some type of vemon... supposedly poisonous... :(
Awesome: Oh gob, where is he now? Med bay?
Brad: Yes, they took him just now.
Awesome: I'm sure the medics can handle him. They patched me up pretty good so far [gestured to his bandages]
Brad: Yeah, but... (sighs)
Awesome: Wats wrong, Starlight? Something still bothering u?
Brad: ...What if he can't make it?
Awesome: [hesitated, knowing that he couldn't give false hope, especially during wartime] ...Why the concern? I thought u two r not exactly close?
Brad: Well, not at first but...we're getting there slowly, as friends.
Awesome: R u sure? Or is there something more than that? :^)
Brad: S-so what if there was? What's it to you?
Awesome: Nothing, nothing, just making sure that... [the head doctor soon came out] Oh, I think they're done
Brad: How is he, doctor? :(
Doc: He's in stable condition, despite the huge blood loss, broken leg, cracked ribs, almost lacerated eye, 2nd degree burns from being shot... We managed to stop the venom from spreading, bt in order to do tht... [hesitated]
Awesome: [got the idea] Oh gob... U don't mean...
Brad: Wh-what...? (was fraid to know but had to)
Doc: [nodded sadly] We had to amputate his arm. It's the only way to save his life, or the venom would've reached his heart n kill him [gets called to handle more wounded] Sorry, I gtg [leaves them]
Awesome: Aww, man. Tht sucks... (worry)
Brad: ... :( If it was the only way to save him, then...
Awesome: Better go see him to see how he's taking it. Just be strong for him, OK?
Brad: ...Okay. (leaves to see Peepers)
