35. Hold my Hand
Reno and Rude starred up at the giant thing that was Omega. Reno was just staring, face impassive .this time it was Rude who had the expression of shock and awe.
The huge thing came crashing towards them, falling from it's huge perch. Reno, surprisingly, was the one to move.
He wrapped his hand around Rudes, and in the instant before the thing struck them, they squeezed softly. They were as surprised as ever when they opened their eyes, to find that the thing had turned into a swirl of mako, twining around them, and their hands softly. Reno smiled over at his partner, just holding his hand.
Rude didn't need to speak. He just pulled Reno closer, smiling in relief.
Who said the luck of the Irish was a myth?

This actually started with the image of a thing crashing towards them and they couldn't dodge. All they did was reach out and clasp hands, waiting for it. Meh, I like this better.
