Alice hastened her pace down the rope, the rope cutting through her gloves and into her hands. As she got to the ground the dark skinned woman quickly picked up her pack before breaking into a sprint, sliding to a stop as she got next to the man. "Darian, hang on you'll be okay," assured him, pushing Scarlett somewhat roughly out of the way.

Darian groaned as he tried to sit up, only to be pushed back down to the floor by Alice. "What hit me?" the man wheezed as he tried to push the woman away ineffectually.

"First a bullet, second the ground," Alice explained calmly, her hands shaking slightly as she fished the medkit from her back pack before beginning to run her hands down the back of the man's head and neck. "Nothing seems broken," she stated pulling back bloodied fingers and holding them in front of the man.

"Two, now let me up," he ordered attempting to push her hand aside.

"Not till I patch you up," she growled as she fished a small light out of the pack and shined it in the man's eyes, measuring pupil dilation. "Pupils are a bit sluggish, probably minor to moderate concussion." the woman then moved down to the man's bleeding chest, unzipping his vest and pulling it open. She delicately pulled back the man's coat and pulled his blood stained shirt away from his chest before ripping it open, giving her access to the chest wound.

"Blood is steady but not frothy, and your breathing is steady enough so I don't think your lung was punctured," the woman analyzed as she grabbed a pair of hemostats and handed her light to Scarlett. "Hold this," the dark skinned woman ordered as she gently worked the hemostats into the bullet wound.

Darian let out a loud yell as the woman carefully dug into the wound, his legs thrashing slightly as he balled his fists. "I'm sorry, just hold on," Alice apologized as she held the man's shoulder down as she got the hemostats around the bullet in his chest and pulled it out, garnering another yell from the man. Alice let out a sigh as she finally got the bullet free from the man, seeing its heavily mangled state and surmising that there were probably more fragments in his pectoral muscle, but nothing she was willing o try and deal with now.

Several rounds whizzed over Alice's head causing her to duck and shield Darian's body at the same time. "Shit," the woman cursed as she lifted up her rifle and began firing in the direction where the shots had come from.

"Fucking hell," Darian muttered as he reached down and pulled his pistol from its holster on his leg and began firing in the direction as well. "We need to get out of here," he muttered, his head still swimming from the impact on the floor and the blood loss.

Alice quickly looked around their area and saw an old metal door leading into the middle of the shopping center, an access for maintenance. "Nickel get that door open!" Alice shouted as she shot off a few more rounds in her pursuer's direction before reaching back into the med kit and pulling out a pouch of quick clot. Quickly she ripped the bag open began pouring it into the wound in Darian's chest, causing the man to growl loudly in pain as he emptied his pistol in the direction of the bandits.

Alice felt the chemical powder burn her blood covered skin as she poured it into the bullet wound until she was satisfied that the bleeding was staunched before pouring the rest of the bag into the hole in Darian's sleeve, significantly slowing the blood from the wound on his arm.

"Can you get up?" Alice inquired, looking at the blood soaked Faunus.

"Just don't ask me to do any heavy lifting," the man stated as he replaced his pistol to his holster and picked up his rifle.

"Good, get over to that door and give us covering fire," she ordered as she scurried over to Scarlett and pulled her arm over her shoulder, to help her walk. "Keep firing," Alice ordered as she pulled out her own pistol and fired slowly. "Once Nickel gets that door open get through it and close it!"
