Snippet #2472152

Not saying anything further to her, Lucas shrugs and glances over to Noir, nodding in the direction of the woods. "We should go check that out." He mentions, talking to Noir and pretending Serra no longer exists again. "I don't understand why someone would just abandon the scene before we're able to talk with him, though..." Noir knickers in agreement as he trots over to where Lucas is and they start into the woods together.

A few moments later, they find themselves having gone nearly around the whole clearing. "Maybe he's not out here..." Lucas starts, but trails off when he sees a figure much like a shoe in the grass. "Over there!" He points, running over to see blood puddled around the other man's foot. "You're not going to be going anywhere with that injury." He mutters, pulling the man up against him, noticing he's hardly conscious, although that is likely due to the pain more than the actual blood loss. Calling Noir over, he shoves the man onto Noir without giving him another option. "You saved my best friends life. You have to let me repay you, so you're going to let my pegasus-" Noir whinnies out of frustration at the term 'my' and forces Lucas to correct himself. "Noir take you with us. I can't let you be for dead. Are we understood?" He asks, glancing in the direction of the clearing once again.
