Chapter 2: Partners
Two hours pass by. Jason wrapped the girls leg to help keep the bone in place.
Jason: "(wiping away sweat) There we go."
Jason lies down on his padded floor.
Jason: "Now to play the waiting game."
Jason remains there for an hour.
Jason: "Huh?"
The girl wakes up.
Girl: "Jesus fuck!"
Jason: "You alright?"
The girl looks at Jason.
Girl: "Where the hell am I?"
Jason: "My cave. I went to go fishing and found you by the riverside with your leg bent backwards."
The girl looks at her leg.
Girl: "Thanks."
Jason: "I believe that we require introductions. Jason Velour."
Jade: "Jade Laven."
Jade looks for her stuff.
Jade: "Do you know where my stuff is?'
Jason steps outside for a moment and comes back with heavy weaponry and a small bag.
Jason: "I know where everything is."
Jason tosses Jade the bag.
Jade: "I'd better thank those two later."
Jade pulls out a small container of ointment.
Jade: "I just find it sad to use this now."
Jade removes the bandages and applies the ointment all over her leg.
Jason: "(puzzled) Why are you doing that?"
Jade: "To speed up my bones fixing themselves."
Jade's leg begins to snap back into place.
Jade: "I have a question Jason."
Jason: "I might have an answer."
Jade: "Did you see two guys nearby where you found me?"
Jason: "No. All I heard and saw was you."
Jade: "(mumbling) The rift must've split us up."
Jason: "Rift?"
Jade: "(flustered) Forget that."
Jason: "Alright. I will for now."
Jade: "(in head) I just fucked up."
Jade's bone finishes healing.
Jason: "Never knew medicine like this was possible."
Jason thinks for a bit.
Jason: "I need to head for the Somar Mansion ruins."
Jade: "For what?"
Jason: "I'm a treasure hunter. At these ruins there are rumors about a scale from a dragon goddess is waiting for a brave soul to snatch it."
Jade: "(puzzled) Dragon goddess?"
Jason: "You've never heard of the dragons that control supernovas, black holes, and solar flares? Nova, Onyx, and Flare?"
Jade: "Nope. (in head) The faith here?"
Jason: "I will make a shit ton of gold if they're true."
Jason grabs his weaponry.
Jason: "See ya."
Jade: "I'll go with you."
Jason: "Really? This is life threatening."
Jade: "I've been through some shit. I can handle my own."
Jason: "If you say so."
The two walk outside the cave.
Jason: "The ruins are a hefty walk. Two days north."
Jade: "Try a week."
Jason: "(in head) Jade is hiding something. I'll find out eventually."
The two begin their two day trek.
