You and Raiden are longtime partners that have been together through many missions, battles with cyborgs and many traumas. But, understandably, you still had tasks that you performed separately and only as a last resort arrived as reinforcements.

This is one of those times. Raiden had been sent to an abandoned stronghold to get rid of the remnants of the weapons that were there. A simple and trivial task, but as it turned out, the stronghold was not so abandoned, and the whole mission turned out to be an ambush. Hundreds, if not thousands, of cyborgs were already waiting for Jack there, along with dozens of military vehicles. And with every hour they seemed to become more and more, and Raiden, who was almost continuously in Jack the Ripper mode, did not even think over his blows, just chopped everyone who fell under his hand, covered in blood, either his own or the enemy's. He just didn't have time to recover and regain consciousness before he had to rush back into the fight.

It might not have been the best idea to rush into battle without warning and get caught by a less than adequate Raiden. In the heat of battle, and not knowing who was an ally and who was an enemy, Jack sliced off your arm with a single swipe of his blade. You staggered back, blood gushing from your shoulder, and he froze in a stupor, not even blinking, staring at the wound he'd just inflicted on you.

But he was cut off when he was nearly knocked to the ground from behind by a cyborg. He picked you up and ran away, sliding under obstacles and occasionally running through walls. Even though you're a cyborg like him, the blood loss will soon take its toll on you, and Raiden won't let you risk your life. To hell with the mission. He only looked forward as he ran to safety, afraid to even look into your eyes.

«Sorry...»

Raiden barely wheezed, frowning harder. He pulled you closer to his chest, continuing to run.
