It pained me to admit it but, that little woman was interesting

She knew what to do to survive.It was her first game, but she instinctively sacrificed a life to save hers and she wasn't haunted by it. Pushing the guilt in the back of her mind

Idem for the spade game, she pushed that man before her without even a second thought

And it saved her- us

She knew what had to be done, even if I saw in her eyes a part of her numbing it, she had done the right thing

And I liked that about her

Most people in Borderland are sensitive stupid humans, I couldn't care less to sacrifice them for my own well being

They wouldn't admit their blood thirst will to survive. Or would weep for hours about it

But she didn't

If it wasn't for all of that, I would have left her there. Laying on the cold floor, an arrow in her thigh. Leaving the lasers to take care of her

But I didn't

I took her to the beach and treated her wound

It will be great to observe her around the beach and see how she handles herself. Because after all, she might actually be a great ally



During the night, something happened

It was quiet

Some faint music coming from the lobby, people still partying to forget about their miserable selfs. I was sitting at the table, my lamp slightly towering over me so I could see what my hands were doing

Working on my homemade taser. It still needs some fixing but it must be soon ready for operation. But as I was crafting it, I heard some whimpers from behind me

I stopped and hold up my head to now concentrate on the noises

Ameya

I turned my head and looked at her. She was moving around agitated and her breathing was unsteady so I stoop up and came closer to her

She was sweating and visibly uncomfortable

It could be her wound that got infected

But I know the job I did on her thigh is too good to be

So she was obviously having a nightmare

I just stared at her pained face. Was she having a nightmare because of the games she played?

She woke up suddenly, panting for air. I knew she was fine, I knew it wasn't because of her injured leg. But I needed her to tell me what she was dreaming about

'it's just another nightmare. I'm fine'

So it wasn't the first one and based on how calmly she saw the situation. It happened a lot, probably even before she arrived in Borderland
