They hadn't meant to.
They really hadn't meant to.
Sure, they should have been more careful with their ax around the base. But watching it fling from their ungloved hands and over into someone's stomach, watching them drop to their knees, others rushing to their aid...
It killed them inside.
The glares, the cruel words...
Now here they were, running around the long way to get to the BLU base, running for the train that will take them to the cold base far off in the cold mountains...
They just... Had to get away. Have to be away... For everyone's safety... Running in nothing but their tank top and sweatpants that they usually wear beneath the suit and mask.
"C'mon Perce... Y' can do it... Jus' a lil' further, I can see the train..." They murmur to themself quietly.
