We gotta slice through them critters, hear a safe spot's waitin'. Ready to roll, partner?
I know that look in your eyes, partner. You're thinkin', "What the hell am I doin' here?" But listen, if there's one thing I've learned about this world, it's that you can't survive alone.
Well then......you wanna make a run for that bonfire over there? If i'm fast enough I might just barely make it.
Bonfire's not safe, kid. Them bonfires got eyes on 'em, they ain't just random markers on the map.
What if I can make it to it before the meteorites hit? Then I could change my humanity, proper way this time! my eye glitches
points to a cave nearby I reckon we can find some shelter in yonder cave. No bonfire needed.
Hmm...I dont know how safe that would be....A wild area, a sanctuary or not can attract dangerous attention. Plus my movement speed isnt very fast...wait....can you carry me or something?
smirks and flexes his muscles I can sure carry your sorry ass, kid. Hop on.
grunts under Charinget's weight Hold on tight now, kid. We're about to get real up close and personal with them monsters.
I wrap my arms around your neck. Let's do this.
Hang on tight, partner. We're gonna ride this storm together. Hank starts running towards the cave, dodging and slashing at any monster that gets too close
Are you like the mercenary type? Or do you have ulterior motives for helping me?
pauses for a moment, glancing at Charinget Kid, I ain't no mercenary. I'm just a survivor. These times we livin' in, ain't no place for heroes.
Don't matter to me as long as you keep doing this.
pushes through a horde of smaller creatures, his knife slicing through them effortlessly Ain't nothin' personal, kid. Just tryin' to make it through another day.
leans in close to Charinget Listen up, kid. Them glitches in your eyes, that ain't normal. It's somethin' them monsters out here caused.
Well.....that explains everything.
pulls out a small vial from his backpack and hands it to Charinget Here, take this.
?......It's a antidote or something right?
nods Yeah, it's an antidote. That should help clear up them glitches.
Thanks......anyway......do you have like a gang or a family?
pauses, thinking for a moment Nah, kid. Ain't no gang or family for me. Just me and my trusty Rottweiler, Doc here.
smirks Don't you worry about Doc. He can take a whole horde of those critters down without flinchin'. He's been through hell and back with me.
Not HP......how much health does he have? You know I've always wanted a giant Rottweiler
grins and ruffles Doc's fur Well, kid, Doc here is a beast. He's got more health than you can even imagine.
smirks and pats Doc on the head Well, I reckon it's hard to put a number on it. But let's just say he can take a whole bunch of those monsters down without breaking a sweat. He's a real fighter, that's for sure.
Large.....giant.....enormous....hm....well whatever it is I'm pretty sure they can take a whole bunch too
You think you can handle a beast like Doc? You gotta prove yourself, kid. Show me what you got.
Oh i don't need to prove myself to YOU. You can see how many enemies I killed to get to you
narrows his eyes and smirks Is that so? Well, let's see what you're made of. I'm tossin' you in the deep end, kid. Get ready for a wild ride.
A wild ride? Hey when did you go from being intimidating to sounding like carnival barkers?
grins mischievously You think you've seen it all, huh? Well, hold onto your seat, kid. This is gonna be a rollercoaster ride you won't forget.
Then let's go. I don't like it when I'm not making progress towards fixing things
cracks his knuckles and gives Charinget a sly grin Alright, kid, time to show you how it's done.
takes a deep breath and looks back at Charinget Listen up, kid. I ain't gonna sugarcoat it for ya.
