mini story: salavge misadventure

6, mute and a recruit named sal are on planet eden looking for supplies until the ship returns for them, completing their task of finding lost agent echos.

Location: the mountain

Sal: "dang it gets pretty cold out here, and I thought I overdressed"

6: "Thankfully we rarely come to this planet"

Sal:" why DO we come here anyways?"

6:"well mostly to kill the scavs and prevent them from causing issues, the agency is pretty secretive though"

6:"I think we got everything from this area we should probably head back to the warehouse, don't wanna get caught in the storm"

Mute nods and they head off back to the warehouse

Sal:"so...what's the viral contagion?"

6:"ah not my favorite topic, to put it short, a disease that cripples our immune system and slowly kills us, that's why mute got a little aggressive when you refused the tablet *chuckle*"

Sal and 6 are pretty distracted with their conversion, unfortunately so.

While they were chatting on the way back a scav was slowly following them and slowly getting closer to Sal.

They raised their ice pick ready to strike at Sal.

6 notised something in the corner of his eye and saw the scav ready to kill Sal.

6:"shit look out!"

The scav swung the ice pick, 6 shoved Sal and attempted to brace for impact.

But he was too slow and the pick got lodged in his arm. "Fuck!"

Mute quickly shot around with one of his silence custom pistols aimed at the scav, fired a bullet directly into their skull.

Sal:"shit shit fuck are you alright?!"

6:"I'll live...just..hurts"

Sal:"dude that's bleeding really bad Jesus fuck I think it hit an artery!"

6:"Hey hey calm down dude I'm fine-"

Sal:"no this is not fine your going to bleedout!" Sal was searching his bag for Somthing to stop the bleeding

Mute notised the visibility was getting worse, the storm was coming

Mute tried to get 6 on his feet so they could make it to the warehouse

6:"fucking ow! What's going on Mute?!"

Mute pointed towards the warehouse

6:"Oh shit the storm!"

Mute and Sal help 6 to his feet, they barely make it back to the warehouse

6:"hah... I'm feeling a little light headed, I don't like that"

Sal:"Jesus Christ your oozing blood" Sal was applying the tourniquet to 6's arm

6:"heh yknow I think I get what REDACTED ment by how I care too much"

Sal:"eh? You mean other people haven't worried about you taking the hits?"

6:"nono I mean I'm always nursing the wounded"

Sal:"well let's hope I can do a similar job and keep you alive"
