Agent Alaska: Recollection and Freelancer

"Lifting the Veil"

Maine growls and rams into the top half of a pillar, causing the debris to hit York. Tex fires paint at Maine and kicks him away. Maine's back hits a pillar and he begins to fall. Maine, however, pulls the pin off a grenade he is holding, and throws it toward Tex. She easily evades the incoming grenade and it lands next to York.

Tex: "Hey!"

Tex's right shoulder sparks blue. She begins to fire an array of paint all over York's body to protect him but the grenade explodes. York flies backward in response to the explosion.

York: "Aaaahh!!"

North: "Shit!"

Washington: Damn it! Those maniacs!

North: "What the fuck are they doing?!"

Alaska and Colorado were already gone, down to the training room.Wash, North, and South run down and follow suit. Carolina pushes an intercom button.

Carolina: "F.I.L.S.S. we need a medical team to the training floor stat!"

Carolina runs toward the training arena as well, following the others from behind. Alarms begin to blare.

F.I.L.S.S.: "Medical team en route, please remain calm."

Washington, Carolina, South Dakota, and North Dakota all enter the arena. They head to an injured York who was with Alaska and Colorado.

Alaska: "York, I swear to god if you die on me know I'll choke you in heaven."

York let's out a pained chuckle before groaning sharply.

Medical team members enter the arena and begin to scatter around.

Carolina: "Get over here, now!"

York keeps groaning.

Washington:(from a distance) "Is he gonna be okay?"

Alaska: "Come on York. Hang in there, bud."

Carolina grabs Alaska's shoulder as she gives an determined look through her helmet.

Carolina: "He's going to be alright, okay?"

Alaska: "I know."

South Dakota: "I can't believe she did that to him..."

In the background, a medic tries to help Agent Maine, but Maine shrugs him off in response and the medic backs away.

Maine:(in the background) "Get off me!"

South: "...shot his armor, sacrificed him."

Washington: "Lockdown hardens the armor. She probably saved his life."

North: "Quick thinking."

Colorado: "Yep, seems that way. Probably an instinct."

Carolina: "Yeah, really quick."

Carolina looks over to Tex, who is being helped by men in black suits. Alaska does so as well, and Tex makes eye contact with him, but it was broken off as the Director suddenly walks in with the Counselor by his side.

Director: "Everyone! Stand down, now!"

Wash, South, Carolina, Colorado and North, quickly stand in formation. Alaska glares at the Director, but he ignores him. Carolina looks at Alaska, worryingly.

Director:(angrily) "You should be ashamed of yourselves! I expected an act as a team!"

Washington: "They used live ammunition on the floor sir. That's against regulation."
