Hearing her name spoken came as a shock at first, it had been so long since she heard it. But to hear it in that voice. Lily spun around, half expecting to find it was just her imagination. When it wasn't, her mouth spread across her face as wide as she threw her arms open. "Brother!" she called out and ran in Liang's direction as fast as she could.

He had gone into the jungle again, circling the camp, waiting for Lawr to come back, and even backtracked on the same path to where he lost Lawr but hear and saw nothing. He couldn't spot him, and now he wasn't sure if Lawr would get lost and come back or be found. The swirling thoughts of the later tried to dig it's claws deep into him, making his heartbeat spike on and off as he thought about it, panicked, and then pushed down those thoughts only to have it cycle again.
It was then when he saw both Lawr AND Rodney that he appeared, storming across the camp and looking at them both. "Oh dear god you guys are alive!" He said, moving to embrace them both before looking at Lawr. "What the hell is wrong with you? We were supposed to stay together and you just took off leaving us behind! You could have gotten killed. You both could be goners. I could kill you both for wandering off like that."
He pulled back, pulling some bandages as he turned to Rodney. "Don't you EVER leave this camp alone." He scolded as he pressed a bandage to heal him, his hands shaking as he did so.
((Healing Rodney first because Lawr needs punished. ))
LIFE BONUS:
Rodney: + 11HP
+ 1 Fraction Bonus

"I can't believe you just left us in the jungle. We're supposed to be working together. You're not the only person who wants to make sure Rodney comes home." He grumbled, as he turned on Lawr, frustrated with his own poor healing but unable to do much else. Every part of him was tense and shaking as he took out another bandage and frowned, inspecting Lawr's arm as he held it up to place a bandage with shaking fingers and pressed it down. He couldn't look at him as his eyes stung.
"I can't even think about what could have happened if you didn't come home."

Lawrence was in a daze. Butch was silent, cut off when he expended the last of his shields and even the bandages Melvin had provided didn't do anything immediate to rouse him. The last few hours were nothing but a blur and every bit of him ached. He was bleeding from a few small scrapes but - miraculously - nothing serious.
He wrapped his bad arm around Melvin but kept a tight hold on Rodney, as if he was concerned the man would wander off again left to his own devices.
"I didn't think." he said. And he frankly still wasn't fully capable of thinking, numbed as he was with adrenaline and exhaustion. "I.. don't even know what I did."

He stilled, reaching both arms around Lawr's slender frame, and he squeeze when he felt as if there was almost nothing to Lawr that made him. Turning his face into his neck, he breathed him in, and thought how, if luck hadn't been there, he wouldn't have this right now.
"You wandered off.....just like Rodney......The way you felt wanting him home.....I wanted him home safe and sound......and I wanted that for you when you wandered off too. You can't just leave me out. You're not the only one who cares and worries. You're too selfish." He pulled away, trying to gain his composure.
"Let's find you two some bunks and a change of clothes."

Lawrence nodded as Melvin's recollection of things faintly lined up with his own. It made sense. He didn't remember leaving Melvin and Melody behind, he just remembered focus and cold certainty like he hadn't felt in some time. It reminded him of when Maja left, of when he decided she would never leave him, like something snapped. Something similar had happened with the cave and Horace. This had mercifully turned out better than that. "I'm sorry." he said. "I just. Panic? I think it was panic. It was something. I could only think about where I needed to be. He could have been dead. I wanted you two with me. I asked. I just..I think once I got going I forgot."
He leaned against Rodney a little when Melvin moved away but didn't protest at all when he was led to the infirmary tents.

For the most part Sammy settled into her ‘prison’ there where a few hunters guarding them, but they seemed to be more focused on the horsemen. Sammy made sure to distance herself from them as she took a seat on the ground. Thankfully Rep left her with her belongings but the drain on the cuffs was instantly obvious as the flames in her eyes instantly shrank down to much smaller spheres representing her ‘eyes’ instead of simply being billowing flames. Her gaze shifted to Jason shrugging as best she could.
“I think the bandages might work? Or they might hurt like hell? Can’t really say. If you have someone with a healing FEAR attack I know that will work with me. I’ve uh… had a hunter help me out once before with one. Good news is you don’t need to feed me I don’t eat and no I don’t eat human brains.”At some point Roland had taken a note of Rep’s meal kit and found one of his own. He was munching on a few peanuts outside the infirmary tent when he saw three figures moving from the edge of camp heading closer. Melvin, Lawrence, and was that… that looked like the Rodney person that was reported missing. Apparently somehow they had found him or he made it back? Either way they looked terrible. Tugging the tent flap aside as they approached he waved them in.
“s**t, I’m not a Moon or a Life, but I wouldn’t even need that to know you guys have been through some stuff… Grab a bed they have plenty open still right now. While you guys where gone they brought in two prisoners. They have a horsemen and some Zombie that Rep was yelling at earlier.”

Approaching the tent, Ro popped up to give them a update. Melvin had been too focused on finding Lawr he hadn't kept up on what was going on in the camp. "Yeah, there are horsemen nearby. Rep was right about not wandering on your own. I guess prisoners means we have a mix. Perfect."
He moved Rodney and Lawr into the tent, placing them down on a bunk. "I'll grab your things and bring them here with some water. Lay down." He moved to the nearby table and brought them both some water. "If you guys aren't healed up after some sleep I'll patch you up again."
While he didn't want to leave them, he felt they would be better with their things with them to change from their torn clothes.
Heading out, he looked back at Ro. "Did they say anything to us about what's gong on or this treasure?"

Mikael shouldn't be on a dangerous mission really, and most of the time, he avoided all hints of a mission like the plague. How he ended up arriving at the camp this time was anyone's guess. He'd actually just been curious while walking around the island and ended up in the jungle.
Fenrir snarled irritably in his thoughts as he looked around the strange little camp. There wasn't any sand here, which was a real shame. He did however find a ration meal, which he sat down to eat without asking if he was allowed to.

”Figured as much, I haven’t gone much farther than our outer defense to add some more wood to it. We might want to double down on that kind of work if the horsemen are already making moves against us,” he could only shrug though at the prisoner comment. He hadn’t gone by to look himself.
Waiting by the entrance he tugged the tent open again heading towards the bunks to help collect the belongings of the other two hunters, shaking his head as they made their way over. “No, we don’t have any real details beyond the fact that the horsemen want something in that temple and we need to stop it.” The walk was short and uneventful though Roland made sure to take a slightly longer path back that had them overlooking the two prisoners.
“The one looks like she probably came from Halloween? And the one seems to be a War horsemen judging by the wings.” Even as he spoke Sammy didn’t really move, her eyes flickered up to acknowledge their presence followed by a polite nod before she leaned back and the two purple flames went out in her eyes.

"They must be close then." He said as they walked past, Melvin not bothering to nod back at the Halloween undead. "That sounds good about adding more protection to this place to at least keep those who are wounded safe and buy us time if a surprise happens."
Maybe he really would have to invest in seeking out this treasure.
Heading back to the infirmary tent, he set Lawr's things down beside the cot they were sitting. "I brought your things for now." It was good missions tended to have you packing lighter.

”Close doesn’t matter when you have wings,” he gestured to the ones tucked behind the horsemen as they both walked away. The thought that a horsemen could be circling above the camp even now cause Roland stare up at the sky with a weary look. “We should probably head to the edge of camp and add more. A few ramshackle wood walls aren’t going to hold them out I’m sure.”
Again they stopped at the medical tent, leaving behind the supplies for the two hunters. Roland having grabbed Rodney’s own while Melvin took Lawrence’s gear. “How did he even manage that? Single handed getting to, into, and back out to us from the Horsemen….” He eyed Lawrence curiously, but ultimately that wouldn’t give him any explanation why.
“Let’s get going to the wall yeah?”

Lawrence gladly took his things, though rather than getting changed into other clothes, got changed out of them down to his boxers underneath the covers, distantly tending to his scrapes and getting a drink, holding the bottle as steady as his shaky hand could.
He turned his attention to Rodney afterwards, and it wasn't all that long before he let himself finally drift off into sleep to rest.
Rep was glad to see Rodney was back, but did decide that everyone in this place was ******** morons. He hadn't expecting anyone to be alive after it all, but it did mean that they could probably expect another attack themselves, given they had one of the horsemen in their grip.

Melody eventually staggered back to camp, exhausted and confused. Melvin really should have taken his own advice as he'd managed to lose her as well and not notice. She wandered over to the med tent in hopes of finding some water and a place to pretend to die. Instead she just STARED at the group all snuggled up together.
Bastards.

TG was bored out of his mind and was milling about the horsemen camp not able to do much. His side made him unable to move heavy equipment and he was unwilling to sacrifice is own tech to help the "cause" out. While he nodded that he was here to help, he had only been lured at the mention of treasure. That and he knew Sammy was about somewhere.
Still, growing bored, he sat atop a crate poking at his phone and wondering if he should start heading out to find her. Mention was that she left the horsemen to help the other side, which was just rude on her part. The least she could have done was give him a phone call saying she was jumping ship. If she was captured, a rescue mission could be possible (which would mean she would be in his debt) but volunteering to leave was another thing entirely.
"Jack this place is boring." At least it was nice and warm.
