Feeling a tap, he turned, arching an eyebrow at the rugged hunter. "What are you..." his eyes travelled down to the guns in the man's hands, and tensed.
"As long as you don't SHOOT me or anything..." he grumbled. Hearing the mist hunter whine, Jake turned around, and gave him an exasperated look. Really. REALLY?
"You're not a kid. You can take care of yourself."

Giving a nod to both of the younger men he'd just left, while giving the blue haired one a snarky little grin, Lex made to move to a very banged up looking Melvin. This was the other downside to being a medic - no one took the time to take care of you. "Stay still, Melvin." Lex nearly ordered, but kept his tone a little gentle. The other man had rank on him now; he couldn't go shooting his mouth off.
A quick and well applied wrap around on the Lifer's leg, and Lex was up and looking for his next target. Two blondes in particular would probably catch his notice...

"That ain't funny, Ami!" Otto scoffed with a disgruntled expression on his face. "Do I gotta take my chances with a lawn mower if ya keep on teasin me?"
Ami scoffed. "You really think I'm that bad with hair?"
She glanced up to her own, which was hastily pulled into a messy ponytail, sloppily done before coming into the fight. "Err ... now isn't the best example."

"Are you two squabbling again?" Lex chimed in, kneeling down beside his girlfriend and Otto, who was in some strange way the man's little brother via Eva and Ami both. Lex preferred to think of him as just a friend, but there really was no denying that the two women had gotten these boys closer. A bandage was smoothed onto Otto's shoulder, light concern pressing Lex's features. "All of you need to be a lot more careful while fighting."
As if he was one to talk, sporting a nice couple of scratches along his face, and a few bite marks on his boots. Those would need replacing if something actually punctured the hardened leather.
"Alright, you next Ami. Turn around."

"Tch.. fine. I'll let you cut it. I trust you, I guess..." Otto grumbled, his gaze continuously looking to where the enemy had fallen.
Never know when something bigger might come...
Otto leered up at Lex as he approached, huffing indignantly. Squabbling? This was serious! This was his hair they were talking about. Lex's concern for their lack of safely fighting protocols was met with a light roll of his eyes. "I didn't die, right?" Otto was careful not to die at least.
Melvin was taking a breather. He still had energy, but after the monster was dead, he could relax for a second and hope nothing came out of the blue even bigger than before. Such a high concentration of Fear to allow this many shadowlings and such a large size said so many bad things. His mind was going off in a million theories with very little to go on other than the monsters that had attacked them. What had fueled so many of them and to direct them all here?
When Lex came over, Melvin broke from his thoughts to look at him and was a bit uneased by how close he was to add a bandage to his leg. "Uh....thanks." He looked at the bandage with some distaste. While he appreciated help, the actual contact was unwanted. It did remind him he should be back up and healing while he still could.
Rising up, he went and heard Jake make a dumb comment about shooting. Moving over, he glared at him and pointed his gun at him. "My gun isn't just a weapon, you idiot. It has energy in it. Energy for shields to heal. Not all charges do damage." He stated. Melvin wasn't a fighter as much as he was a defender and healer.

"So I wasn't shooting at you, but firing energy into your shield." To which he pointed his gun and fired, aiming for Jake's chest. The round landed and gave a slight bit of energy. Not much, but Melvin was running a bit on empty anyways.
It was still satisfying to shoot Jake, and Melvin couldn't help a bit of a weary smile. If he could heal Jake to death, he would have.

"We didn't die-" she said almost in unison with Otto. An embarrassed red came across her face as she looked away and left Lex to tend to Otto. She was so grateful that Lex understood she would've demanded the bandages go to Otto anyways.
While he worked, Ami said, "I think a shorter style might look nice on you though. You've got that nice sideswept hair naturally."
When it came time for her bandages, Ami did as she was commanded and turned the way he wanted. "It's just my knee and arm again." She frowned, looking down at her now ripped tights. Well crap, she'd need to buy a new pair now.

Both of the short blondes received a small chuckle as Lex unrolled some more bandages, gently applying them to Ami's cut knee for the second time that day. After this was all over, she was being put in bed for the rest of the day - no questions asked. Otto would probably need tucked in, too. Hell, they'd probably both get bedtime stories if they made it out of this alive.
"You came close enough." He whispered, smile becoming a more grim line as another roll of bandaging went along Ami's arm. He wished he could help more, dole out some damage at the least. But here he was, healing everyone. At least there wasn't a current threat.
"You know, pink really suits you Otto. But I'd agree with Ami on this, cuit it short and side swept - it suits your face."

The death trainee was currently mulling over what to do, now that the creature was gone, when he heard the sound of another gun cocked, and stiffened. What the hell was going-
He turned, staring down the barrel of Melvin's gun. Now that he had time to relax and wasn't running off fear and adrenaline, he noticed that Melvin's gun looked more like a plastic toy then anything.
"... right. I think I remember you shooting at yourself during that mission." he smirked, recalling the external mission.
Still, when Melvin pulled the trigger, he couldn't help but flinch, and only watched as it seemed to replenish his shield. Not much, but slightly. Ok, so, not all guns were meant for killing, but it was never pleasant having a gun pointed at you.
Jake grumbled out something that seemed something like "thanks" before walking off, in case Melvin decided he wanted to try shooting again.

"Yeah." He did shoot at himself when he managed to get a charge. It was a easy way to deliver a blast of energy into his system without having to stop and pull out a bandage. While Jake left, Melvin was very tempted to shoot again and even went so far as to point his gun at the back of the man's head, but left it at that.
Lowering his weapon, he moved over to spot Ami. "You were about to break a lung a few times back there with giving out orders." He said. Not touching her, he pointed his gun to her arm and fired to give her a small pulse of power. Again, it wasn't much.

Ami's fingers tightened around the cloth on both Otto's arm and Lex's shoulder. Damn did those bandages sting when they were first applied. Cold, but they healed things much faster. She looked down at her knee disappointingly, saddened by the lost of yet another tights. She really needed to find some cheaper ones...
Melvin got a look. "I only yelled once. Also? Orders are my job, trainee." Just in case Melvin had forgotten. She nodded gratefully at his gun though, and added, "Thanks." Ami would never be ungrateful, that was for sure.
Now that she was feeling more sturdy on her feet, she ventured a squeeze to Lex's arm (for that was all she could afford in the middle of a potential battlefield). "I'm just glad they didn't get my house." A look into the distance, wherever Marcus was. "Yet." She turned to Otto. "Stop by tomorrow around 2:45, I have a break then. Good?"

Lex received a glare, not entirely convinced that pink was his colour. Still, they both seemed to agree he could use a good cut. Well, it was something to look forward to that wasn't more shadow bosses or mission reports.
Ugh.. mission reports.
Otto gave a light shrug, "Sure, I'll be there." He agreed in a mumble. Since all his beanies had been tainted by Kat's little "modifications", it was harder to tame the mop that his hair had become.
At last, with what seems like a small sigh, the oversized shadowling fades away, crumbling at the edges before it dissipates entirely, leaving something behind for the faintest of seconds -
- Something glowing a soft red, something-
- And then that was gone too.
A moment. One breath. A second. Nothing so far, and then, the barest moment of relief. Through the masses of shadowlings, shadowlings that left behind chaos but no evidence of even existing themselves, they had survived and emerged of victorious.
What can be defeated will only come back stronger-
-much, much later.
