"General," came a panting voice "she's been hit." Jason looked at the boy, barely a man, and nodded. Thanking him he ran though the fighting, trying to advoid being caught in contact. A few times he was forced to stop, help a struggling man of his. By the end of his run, he had a few good men following him. As much as some of them hated her, they knew what would happen if she went over to emeny lines. The fighting, as always, was all around her. He paused, ordering his men sharply before running to her side. "Naina," he said searching her face "you okay?" he asked as the men circled around them, trying to protect their leaders.

I winced as I fell over, rolling over quickly, looking where the bullet had come from. One bullet left my gun and hit the man that had gotten me, killing him instantly. Not that I cared.
Then I looked down at my right leg and hissed at the slight pain that was I was starting to realise was there. I winced, one hand shifting to squeeze the spot that I knew that had copped the bullet. At least by doing that I'd be able to stop some of my own blood from escaping from leg. I could still feel the annoying thing in me.
Then I saw several people coming that were on my side of this, and in good timing as well. Several of the other Italian men had appeared and had seen me fall and had move to try and catch me. This time I got lucky and I knew that.
Things moved fairly quickly before I knew no one more than Jason was talking to me. "I'll live, I got lucky, I'll be back to normal by the morning I think. I just got a bullet in my right lower calf. Guys dead that did it, I got him for it."

"Good," he agreed, pulling his belt off and strapped it around her calf to stop the bloodflow. "You know as well as I how things can get nasty," he said before she could protest and stood once more, aiming at each man in turn. It seemed their numbers had shrunk, which was a good thing, but there still wasn't enough. "Echelon!" he shouted and the men moved to file into the called formation. It was easier now, picking off targets at a time. More men, his men, poured into the clearing and joined the formation.

Naina Collins I was a little proud of myself for not crying from the painful thing, but that was not something I had gotten used to. I guessed it was because I'd become my old self at least. "Damn my father for slipping away like that! I muttered. He was long gone, without a chance of being tracked, I was the only one who knew him well enough to be able to. more than once an enemy fell, struck through the knee from a bullet from my own weapon, finished off by a killing one from me

Jason looked down at her and nodded sharply. "We'll get him," he told her as the last of his men captured the last of the soldiers. "Take them to the cells, but treat them well," he told them sternly, taking in the faces so he knew to blame if they were injured. "We wont harm you, unless you give us reason," he told the wary soldiers gently. "Were not savages," he said nodding for them to go before turning to Naina. "Come on, lets get that leg looked at," he said checking the bodies around them with a sigh. "Get clean up Hamish," he nodded to his man before looking at Naina once more.

Naina Collins "If someone hadn't shot me in the leg I'd have been able to track him with no trouble. I'm the only one who know's his little tricks to try and throw someone off who might be following him. Always tomorrow though."
At least all these guys would know now that I was tougher than most guys, I had not shed one single tear yet though I had gotten a pretty painful injury.
I sighed, setting the safety switch on my weapon, knowing the fight was over for now.
"None of those guys you ccaught know me. No Italian faces."

His eyes followed the soldiers and nodded slightly. "Good, you can be there for questioning if you wish," he said and looked at her from the corner of his eyes. "Come on, before that leg needs to be taken off," he said wrapping an arm around her shoulder and helped her limp. He sighed "could I just carry you...might make it easier..." he said.

Naina Collins I nodded, not really trusting my voice at the moment. It was more than a little painful, but that was something I could cope with at least. Managing to control my voice though, I said, "That might make it easier, yeah. I don't know their language though, my father did unfortunately. Probably told them things that he ordered them not to say. I won't be any help there." I definately did not want to lose my leg either. That would be humiliating. I was not that bad though. "And I doubt that will happen. I heal too quick. anyone with my background does."

"To bad," he said scooping her up into his arms and carried her easily towards the healers tent. He dropped her on the bed, waiting for a not so busy nurse for the rest were dealing with worse cases. "Bullet in the calf," he said and the young nurse nodded. "Shocked?" she asked and he shook his head. "Not yet, pulled out her gun and kept fighting," he said and the nurse nodded. "Can you feel this?" the nurse asked Naina, squeasing her toes.

Alexa Collins "yeah I can feel that." I knew it was not as bad as it could have been this time. I got lucky I knew that much. This would not take me very long to heal from. I sighed though, I knew I was a lot tougher than some of the people I knew that fought for ym old homeland. A homeland that wanted me dead. A lot of them would have left the army after getting something like this. "I've had this happen to me before. I'll recover pretty quickly," I told jason.

The nurse looked at her in suprise. "Okay.." she said and looked at the wound before cleaning around it. "Is the bullet still in there? Do you know?" she asked and Jason stood behind her, watching Naina's every move.

Naina Collins "I think its gone. I can't feel the nasty thing in there anymore." I smiled a little bit, amused by the surprise on her face. "I may not be a familiar face here at the encampment, but I've been in battle before."
I knew there was a scar on my other calf from the same injury a few years back. At least I was the one who was used to this sort of thing, because I was not wincing or anything as she worked to clean it up.

"Hmm," the nurse tutted "I'm going to need to check that..for stitches only help if theirs nothing inside." She looked at her for a moment. "That means a local," she said pointedly and prepped a needle. Jason blinked, looking away from the needle and smiled at Naina. He wasn't the biggest fan of needles. Though it was funny how a man fought war every day since he was 18, but still feared needles.

Naina Collins I shrugged. "Go ahead." I ignored the needle, Oi was used to them and i did not care about them much. I smiled though as I looked at Jason. "What don't you needles or something?"
I knew better than to tease him at the moment. This was not something that would be a good idea at the moment. At least I knew that some of the people here actually cared about me at the moment.

He shrugged. "Not their biggest fan, thats for sure," he said as the needle pushed though her flesh and the nurse began to dig around in the wound. "Ha," the nurse said there was a clunk as she placed the bullet into the metal bowl. "There we are, nicely done," she said and cleaned up the wound, stiching the sides together. "All done, try not to walk on it for a few days at least," she told Naina before rushing off to help others.
