A falcon follows Rage, circling high overhead.

Scratching his head with a yawn, Rage muttered "we gotta get out of this damn city."
((Edit, picked a direction we can't move in....))

Looking a mite bit confused, the Cat Lady stumbled a bit, then started running to the west after Rage.

Sam lifted the bike up and dusted it off, her form fitting deep red biker's leathers more then a little revealing she found. One hip almost completely uncovered as if she had had road rash from a collesion. Her hsoulder on the other side was undone, making the sleeve almost fall off but both gloves were intact as was her boots.
She shifted and winced, finding another cut on her side, beside her breast. Lovely. This outfit wouldn't make it through much more. Luckily, she had a spare set of leathers in her saddlebags. She made sure her helmet was on tightly but that the shield was up and swung her long legs over the bike's saddle before walking it towards the others, that way she could rev off at a moment's notice.
She looked around for Sey and made her way towards her.

The Crimson One Looking over at Sey, Allen flashed her a weak smile, beginning to walk slowly. And obviously wincing as each step jarred his wings.
"...that's ok, miss Kaikou. No need to worry about me. I'll be fine." (( oops. I HAVE IT! sweatdrop ))
"No, please I can... Now I can..." She was so dissapointed with herself she wasn't making much sense. Falling to her knees infront of Allen and sniffling, Sey loosened the coat around her body, revealing the core slightly, and lifted her right hand to Allen's arm.
"Falis... Your Revered Daughter begs for your assistance once mor-" She didn't even finish her prayer, Falis knew what she wanted. Allen's wounds slowly began to heal, slower then they normally would have if Sey had been in better shape.
"I'm so sorry Allen... I've... I've failed everyone..."

Rage pointed South, figuring his teamates would follow him as he jogged off in that direction.

Tsu is confused for a moment, he was sure he could have gone west from here. Apparently he was wrong, so he follows his friend Rage to the south.

The Cat Lady quickly changes direction and starts running South with Rage.

"You've hardly failed us Kaikou." Abel offhandedly mentioned as he pulled out the small toolkit, "Without what you've done we would have been missle fodder."
He pulled up his right arm to inspect it. The panneling was shot, and a few solid blows would shut it down. But the jerky movement, what was doing that...

(( It's a small sheet... like a handkerchief, only about five feet by five feet. ))
James walked up beside Sey, setting the briefcase on the ground beside him as he bent down and put a hand on her shoulder.
"What the bleedin' hell are you talking about, woman?" was what he said, reaching into a pocket near his right hip and retrieving a wetnap; which he promptly opened and then used to wipe the dirt off of Seyumi's chin.

And the wounds didn;t heal that much, either. even with the power of a god behind the spell, the fact that his wings weren't really physical, and thier natural resistance to magic made it so that they really just stopped bleeding, the wounds still open for the most part.
That was enough for Allen, though, who unsummoned his wings with a last wince, and stood up straight, no visible injuries left.
"...let's go, people."

At JB's comment to Sey, Sam spoke up. "Like most women she likes to beat herself up over what she didn't do."
She then realized who she had spoken to and quickly shut the visor with a snap and reved the engine self conciously as she continued straddling the bike.

Shaking her head despite her comrade's words, Sey knew it in her heart. She was weak. She still needed to grow stronger... And this time, she wouldn't listen to any scary voices in her head.
Sniffling, Sey looked at James with glossy eyes.
"Oh James..." She burst into tears and hugged his leg, her shoulders shaking.
"Underneath Allen... I couldn't do anything! When Truewind... Oh Truewind... When he shot at you I was helpless. Sam got hurt, ALLEN was burned, Abel's falling apart, Stryphe dissapeared, Alber was fighting without barriers, Anna had to HEAL ME..." She shook with dissapointment and her sobs grew a little louder.
"Your aim was impecable James. And Alber, your swordplay was amazing. Anna, your horsemanship was to die for... Sam, your bracelet saved us - and you protected our Core... Abel found out that monstrosity's weakness... Allen... Oh Allen-" She choked. She was supposed to defend them all...
She failed.

Alber approached Sey and waited for a moment, in order to find the right words. "Lady Sey, you are hardly a failure. Look at the group you have brought together: a rag-tag group brought together by your words alone, what could be better than that?
"Furthermore, look at all you've done for the followers of Falis. Think about Alicia, who adores you. And myself, too! What I mean to say is... well..."
The Frenchman was at a loss for words.
"Just thank you," he said, smiling.

Anna paused in the process of putting her foot into the strirrup. She looked at Sey, then to James. "Just pick her up. We don't have time for a martyr, she can save it for when we're someplace safe."
Where her shield, helmet and gloves went, only the Archangel knew, but Anna hoped she wouldn't be needing them. Foot planted, she pulled herself up and settled in. She turned Yves around to face the others.
"Everyone set? No one needs a lift?"
