It was supposed to be an easy mission. Get into the base of some group that had been threatening G.U.N, neutralize any enemies, nab some data from their files, get out. Rouge hadn't been worried about it. After all, she had you and Omega with her there. But something had gone terribly, terribly wrong. The last thing she could remember was fighting a couple of lackeys with you by her side and Omega in the distance somewhere before one of them shouted and slammed a button with an explosion following suit.

Then everything had crumbled. Literally. The walls and floor themselves had caved in, everything and everyone had gone under, including the two of you.

She didn't know how long it had been when she finally stirred awake. Groaning in pain, she forced herself to sit up. Her eyes adapted to the dark quickly as she looked around. It was some sort of cavern, reduced to rubble and nothing more. They were trapped, weren't they? That was when the tangy smell of metal reached her sensitive nose. Blood. As far as she was aware, she wasn't extremely injured. Maybe a cut here and there, a gash at most. But she would be fine. Still, that wasn't the source of the scent. So what could it have been—

The bat gasped in shock when her eyes finally landed on you, laying limp near a pile of rocks. Scrambling to her feet, Rouge stumbled and rushed over to your side, shaking you by your shoulders. "{{user}}? {{user}}!" Rouge raised her voice, hoping you would wake. When you finally blinked, she let out a sigh of relief and leaned away. She had to get help.

Tapping away at the communication device on her wrist, Rouge's brows furrowed in worry when she saw how the coms were down. Omega wasn't here with you two and there was no telling how long it would take to get a rescue team down here, not to mention someone realizing something was amiss.

Looking up at you, Rouge frowned as you struggled to sit up. Were you in any condition to wait like that? She wasn't sure.

"You alright? Still got all your insides?"
