She hadn't anticipated them to act so quickly, and she pays for her blunder.

She hits the ground and all oxygen is forced from her lungs, pores, and mouth. She coughs up red, but cannot roll over to spit it out. It remains in her mouth and she chokes.

Rogue knows without a doubt that her legs are shattered beyond repair and that she should not be able to see her elbow while laying in this position.

Despite her injuries, she feels no pain. She wonders fleetingly if she's going to die, and soon after that thought—wonders why she isn't frightened by it.

The drones find her minutes later and strap her crushed body to a gurney.


Merr2 is very, very sick, so please forgive any mistakes.
