A Glorious Comeback (1x! with *Adashi*)

"I have no idea what you’re doing but you know whatever it is, I really can’t let you! We need to go!" Vaughn shouts, rushing across the rocky platforms and to where Timothy is standing.

Rhys turns his attention to where Jack is, eyes widening seeing the blood. "Oh god. Uh — we’ll pick up some hypos along the way, in case he tries anything else."

"Then you shouldn't of crossed the threshold and into the vault vaughn. One way in, no way out until we're dead or the beast is dead. Rules of the vault Vaughn, rules of the vault." Timothy stated as Warrior bellowed and moved to slam its talons down, thought timothy quickly moves out of the way and takes another few shots at the warrior, making it roar loudly.

Jack nods his head, only to cough heavily, quick to cover his mouth and try to conceal the blood escaping his mouth now and the cracking to the plating along his chest.

[mandalorian]

"Timothy! Rhys isn’t gonna be happy with this and he’s on his way!" Vaughn shouts, grabs Timothy’s hand as he’s shooting and forces his arm down, then tugs rather aggressively to force Timothy to face him. "We aren’t doing this!”

Rhys rushes out of the elevator as soon as they get to the first floor, heading to where he knows a health hypo vending machine is set up. He gets a handful to shove away later before returning to Jack. "Here, c’mon. You’ll be okay." He insists, reaching up to gently grab Jack and press the syringe between the plating.

Timothy looks at Vaughn when forced to, scowling greatly. "Good! Let him come. Let them both come. By the time they arrive, I'll of brought down the warrior. Can see what this has accomplished. Because then I can laugh if Jack falls again." He responded in a rather hostile manner.

Jack doesn't fight it, actually welcoming the use of the hypo. He shakes his head ever so faintly, show he's good at the moment. There's no continued pain, so something must be distracting Lawrence. "I'm going to kill him. First ditches me at elpis, now he's trying to kill me. I'm so gunn a set off that bomb." He hissed under his breath.

[mandalorian]

"Timothy! Snap out of it!” Vaughn snaps in response, keeping his grip on him. "You cannot stoop down to Jack's level, I won't let you do this. Rhys is gonna come and take care of this, you just need to focus on me, Tim! No one else.”

Rhys frowns. "No, you aren't. Because if you do, I'm not holding back whatever Vaughn's gonna do. But I will take you back to Atlas after and this arrangement of ours will be stopped instantly. I'm positive you don't want to die and waste your second chance." He grabs Jack's wrist once they're done, pulling him out of the elevator and to the front of Atlas.

"Its hilarious that you think you'll be able to keep up with me to even remotely stop me." He retorted with the slightest bare of teeth.

Timothy finally pulls himself away from vaughn with force, taking a step away from the other man. "I'm doing what is necessary here. Sasha told me that rhys is letting it stay in his pent house for christ sakes. Its only a matter of time!" He shouts, taking a few more steps back. "So i'm either taking out the warrior myself, or your going to have to shot me to stop me." He stated before finally jumping up to grab the ledge and pull himself up, regrab warriors attention and take a couple shots at the beast.

[mandalorian]

"Hey!” Vaughn lunges when Timothy pulls away from him, grabbing his lowered wrist and pulling him off the ledge with a strong tug. He moves over as soon as Timothy's back hits the ground and presses his foot onto the hand with the gun. "I said no.”

"You'd be surprised." Rhys says, looking back at him with a raised brow. "Now shut up so we can just get to the vault already."

[Agent Maine(Meta)]

Timothy glared at first when he's taken down, only to suddenly smile. "Alright. Fine. Get 'em boys." He stated, his watch whirling to life and instantly casting out its to digi-jacks. One of them automatically goes in to grab vaughn and pull him off timothy while the other goes right for warrior, getting a shrill cry from the large beast when the digi goes for the soft chest plating.

Jack rolls his eyes, grumbling to himself in a spiteful manner, picking up his pace quite a bit once they get outside of atlas. He's barely getting a head start when pain radiates from his chest again, more of the plating cracking and has him tumbling a bit and coughing up more blood.

[mandalorian]

Vaughn's eyes widen in a panic as soon as he realizes, but by the time he's reacting, the digi's arms are hooked under his and pulling him off rather harshly. He kicks his feet into the air before swinging them back to hit at the digi's. "Timothy! You need to control yourself!” He shouts.

Rhys pauses to check on Jack, frowning when he notices the blood, but continues tugging him along. "Come on. We'll be there soon. We'll stop him."

[Agent Maine(Meta)]

"I am in control of myself for once in my life. And i'm not letting it get ripped away from me." Timothy answered before returning his focus forward on the vault beast, avoiding what attacks he could while dealing the ones he could. He's especially pleased when that plating falls away and he can fire a few of Fatale's cryo-shots into the now open space, getting a shriek out of the warrior as it suddenly stiffens in its movement. "Aww, suddenly need a sweater there ugly?" Timothy stated with a hum.

Jack follows and tries to keep up. They're just barely entering the cavern when the plating at his own chest falls away and it leaves him with a chill all throughout his body. Its getting panic to rise in his chest and throat, because he really doesn't ant to die again/already. But they're getting close and warrior hasn't fallen yet. His own magma glow suddenly dulling drastically and replaced with an icey sheen as jack fully collapses, gasping and shuttering. Its cold, to cold is the dull, numb thought in his head.
