Petra throws open the door from her verse to Milliways and steps in, firing her gun once into the space on the other side. She reaches out and slams the door shut, seemingly deaf to where she is now. She backs up a step, but doesn’t turn around.

“I’m done running. Come and get me now.” Petra says under her breath as she steadies her gun in one hand. The other hangs useless, a hole though the shoulder and blood gushing out. Both of her pants legs are torn and her shoulder is not the only bullet wound in sight. Her face is dirty.

She still does not realize where she is.

ooc: Now our healer disappear. I guess the RP is on hold for good.

Bonzo was on his way back to his room when he sees Petra come in.

What the...?

Acting rather like a normal human being, he runs over to Petra as she's standing inside the door.

"Petra...what happened to you?"

Petra spins around, but instead of doing like she ment to.. and firing the gun at the enemy, her leg gives out and she falls rather heavily to the ground and the gun skidds out of reach.

Wildly she looks around from her position on the ground... "Milliways?" Up at the boy, "Bonzo?"

Bonzo quite casually picks up the gun and sets it on a table about two away from Petra, where he was when he saw her come in. Then he turns his attention to Petra, kneeling down beside her.

"What did you get yourself into, Petra?"

"Just some trouble at home." Petra's teeth are clenched tight and she presses hard on her bleeding sholder.

"Nice of Milli to show up."

The girl's mind races.

What now?

"What can I do for you? I'll get medical help, but tell me what's wrong so I can get the best people available for what's wrong."

The girl takes a deep breath to steady herself. If she was thinking she probably would not be accepting help from Bonzo, but right now she needs all the help she can get.

"Simple things, pistol shot in the sholder. I don't know how many scratches. I think I need some new clothes. If anything else is wrong I don't know it." Except for whatever went wrong with her leg. Probably wasn't anything serious, so she does not mention it.

Bonzo looks around.

"Healer!"

Pause.

"Well, I can go look for one, but let me help you here...lay down, for one thing."

Petra shakes her head.

"I'll be okay, just... need to get to my room."

She reaches up and grabs the door knob to pull herself up. The room twists around her, and she closes her eyes agaisnt the dizzyness.

Bonzo shakes his head.

"I don't think so..."

Pet bites her tounge to clear her head just a bit, it doesn't really work, but she doesn't want to slide to the ground again. She cluches at the door knob as it is the only think keeping her up as the room dances around her.

"You wanted me to lay down right? Room." Pet reaches out and grabs a chair and takes a step, almost falling, but managing to keep on her feet.

Bonzo gets out the big bag of no on this one.

"I think not. I'll help you to a booth, but you need a healer. Now."

"Fine. Lead the way."

Petra would argue more, if she didn't know how close she was to fainting.

Bonzo helps Petra limp over to the nearest booth, where he helps her lay down.

"Here you go."

Pet does not stay laid down for long. After just a second she sits herself up. As an explination simply,

"I'd go to sleep, or pass out."

Bonzo nods.

"Fair enough. So, what happened to you?"

"I got shot."

Petra thinks this is a rather easy statement. Why didn't Bonzo see this before?

"No, I mean how did you get shot?"

Petra is rather out of it, and she jsut is not getting what the boy is saying.

"Someone pointed a gun at me and pulled the trigger?"

Bonzo facepalms.

"I would presume so. I meant...what were you doing that involved you getting shot at?"

"I was running. I don't know all the details, but I got a tip off that I needed to get out of HQ quick and as I was leaving people started shooting."

She doesn't know if they were particularly gunning for her, the Hegemon, or someone else. Just that someone was suppose to die.

Bonzo nods.

"That's when you came in here?"

The girl nods, then wishes she hadn't. "I was done running, I thought I was traped, but I guess Milli had a diffrent idea of things."

Bonzo smiles.

"Maybe we can set you up with a rapid-fire blaster for when you go back?"

"Heh." The girl grunts and closes her eyes on another wave of dizzyness.

Bonzo takes that as his cue to track down the not-appearing healer.

"Back in a moment. Don't die on me, alright?"

Another grunt, and the girl keeps her eyes closed.
