You make your way back to the Pizzeria without incident, and having done so, before You-know-who shows up; you extend a bit of solidarity. You hold our your hand.
<inquiry>Put her there?
JJ laughs, before her elbow joint creaks in joining.
>"Of course, Sir."
The handshake is strong, and you get the feeling that both of you share a mutual mild paranoia that the grip strength would crush one or the other's hand.
Thankfully, this doesn't happen, and the mood is overall a bit lighter.
Six... Six....Hours... The Craving...
With perfect timing to ruin the brief levity, the Shadow merges with you, looming over the two of you.
>"At least it's a good amount of time..."
JJ's a bit optimistic tonight, you get the feeling upgrades were rare for factory made models. It's hard not to feel a bit more hopeful than usual with her demeanor spike.
You have a 'not-enemy' entity nearby, you at least know 'what' is attacking you. The Night sky is cloudless and starry, your Number One Assistant is now armed, and you're soaked in blood.
>CHN-NNG-!! THWASH!
!!!
A startle among the Hive as the sound of glass shattering echoes among the trees. JJ steps back and you make sure you have your weapon gripped tight.
It's... By the entrance of the Pizzeria.
Something shattered the Window by the entrance.
