Stormy sat on his bed, looking pathetic, his body was covered in bandages and his right wing was entirely limp. He didn't want to talk about what had happened that made him this way, it hurt too much to remember. He held onto his helmet, the only thing of comfort he had with his as he felt too miserable to get out of his room or eat. He was gently playing with the straps of his helmet with his back turned to his door, when he jumped slightly upon hearing a heavy knock on his door. "AAA- uh-... who- who's there?.." Stormrage asked nervously. "Hey, don't worry Stormy, it's just me! Yer friend Metalsnap! No need to worry there!" A muffled voice came from the other side of the door. Stormy was surprised, has he actually heard Snappy's voice since the Fall of Carmen, he didn't remember him having an accent. "Uh- okay,.. you can let yourself in... I don't want to move right now..." Stormrage said sheepishly. The door creaked open and Metalsnap ducked under the doorframe just to get through, Stormrage was astonished at Snappy's size, he was practically twice his height if he were able to stand here, Stormrage shrunk back in intimidation. He could feel his part of the bed rise up as Snappy laid down next him, he also noticed a basket with some wrapped up things in it in Metalsnap's claw hand. "Oh,.. what are those?.." Stormrage asked, curious about the mystery objects. "Oh? Those are some chicken biscuits, I remember those being your favorite food, so I made some for you!" Metalsnap said nonchalantly. Stormrage's antennae perked ups he reached in, grabbed and unwrapped one of the chicken biscuits, and took a bite. It was so delicious, it was too long since h had last eaten, especially because of his high metabolism. "Thank you,.. friend..." Stormrage said, a smile crept up on his muzzle. "Ah, don't worry mate! I was just lookin out for ya and tryin to make you feel better, I heard about yer crash, I'm sorry you had to go through that, sounded painful..." Metalsnap said as he gently wrapped his arm around Stormrage. Stormrage felt comforted when he felt Metalsnap's warmth embrace him, he was such a good friend, his best friend even. He was glad to have this loving gentle giant in his life, especially during his darkest time...
