There were barely seconds to make a choice, and survival instincts take over, even as a little annoying voice tells you that you should've chased after... And it only gets worse and louder as the top of the ceiling caves in, the mechanical behemoth seems to start dragging itself away, just what the hell was this thing?! Shit's been taking some really weird turns during this mission but a mecha? If that's what it even is... No time! You need to get out!
The opening is gonna close up if you don't hurry,
You rush to reach Arthur and heroically carry him out the hole on the wall but you tripped. Which really would be easy on an earthquake so don't be too hard on yourself. You crash into him and then the both of you stumble out through the hole, falling out and... Wait, did you even look where you were going to fall?
Your back hits what seems like the hardest, pointiest concrete! No seriously, it's a wonder you survive the impact!
Oh and then Arthur falls on top of you. So he's safe. Soft landing.
You could pass out now.
But the job is still not done...
You NEED to chase after them! But how...?
As you weakly sit up, you see your trusty handle checking on a motorcycle... Wait, no, that's yours! Well, it's your stolen bike! And now he's stealing it from you?! Unless... Looking closer, it seems he's added a little sidecar.
Well that's how we're doing this then. Alright. You run to catch up and get on the driver's seat. "Just like Ind* 3, huh?" You try to quip to relieve some tension, as he pulls out an SMG out of nowhere. No seriously, where'd he have that? Why is this vehicle just conveniently here, too?! "Almost. If the old man had a gun. You focus on driving good, alright?" He was clearly under some stress, but seemed confident enough. If anything, that helped you feel a little better!
>Drive ahead full speed! No time to waste!>The huge machine is slow, there's time to talk.>Ask why he doesn't give you the gun instead.>"This is kinda... Romantic, is it not?" Yeah, that's totally gonna work. Idiot.(New years and all that blah blah blah.)
