As the Orc is crushing max, Max's armor begins to glow and spits fire that envelope the Orc. Max is surprised that his armor can do this kind of feat and is even more surprised where the fire only seem to make Venom more angry. Venom tighten his grip trying to suffocate Max. 

Max cannot see it, but behind them Inferno materializes as a large vortex of fire, without thinking about it he envelops the goon and leaves nothing but scorched ashes from him. As Inferno approaches Venom, he is a bit confused, his fire aura is so strong that it will also kill its summoner. Max is in pain, struggling to keep consciousnesses he knows that if he passes out, Inferno goes free.

Inferno was bound by magic to do the service he was requested, and no matter how he interperated the term 'drek-head' it had to include Venom. Killing the orc was not a difficult task for Inferno, all he had to do is approach and envelope the orc with his fire aura.  So he did just that, reluctantly but unable to object the very specific phrasing of Max's service.

"SCARE HIM AWAY!"  With the help from Inferno's Fear power his neck is finally released from Venom's stranglehold and Maxwell begins to inhale as much oxygen into his lungs as possible, wildly coughing at the same time too.  Maxwell staggers around trying to regain his bearings and pretend that he wasn't just blitzkrieged by an irate ork.  Dusting off his jacket he looks around and notices the pile of ash that used to be Goon #6 or #11.  "Good work Inferno but don't try to incinerate me next time."  His body aches all over due to Venom's onslaught and he feels extraordinarily lightheaded.  Struggling to remember other key features about the fight only made his head feel worse.  "Wait... was that bitch... casting spells on me?"  Maxwell remembers that his jacket glowed and bursted in flames during the battle if it could even be called a battle.  "Maybe she did save my life before and it wasn't a trick."  Turning his head to look at the bar and the scared yakuza inside.  Doing his best to determine if he was very fortunate that this is how it all turned out or if he has another train wreck to look forward to.  Maxwell shrugs and lets out another raspy cough.  Maxwell mumbles: "Still alive so the Black Knight probably still favors me."  Without anymore delay Maxwell shoves his hands into his jacket pockets and walks off to find his phantom partner.

Once up in the tree with the body, the doctor notes the fading condition and, instead of risking getting her down first, carefully balances himself and maneuvers his medical kit around to begin applying aid.


First Aid 5 + Logic 5 + Medkit 6 = 16 Dice
Limit for this purpose is 12 (6 Mental Limit plus the Medkit rating).

@Serge, her life signs seem to stabilize and you manage to stop the bleeding. She is in no imminent danger now, but still require some long term treatment for infection and other complications.

[All4BigGuns]

Once she's stabilized, Serge breathes a sigh of relief before packing away the medical kit and maneuvering around to try and get the woman into a 'fireman's carry' position before starting the climb back down the tree.


Gymnastics to climb back down.
9d6.hits(5)=3

I know I'm using a lot of Edge here (seeing as this is my third of 5), but I'm not comfortable with only 3 hits when carrying someone, so another reroll.
6d6.hitsopen(5, 6)=2

After reroll, totals at 5 hits.

[gilga]

@Serge, you manage to go down from the tree, you see your run partner a bit roughed up but fine, looking for you.

[All4BigGuns]

As he turns his steps to head back to his car, carefully shifting the unconscious woman into another carrying position, Serge looks to the other runner, "Run into some trouble? If you need it, I can take a look once back at the clinic."

[Mulcarn]

Finally finding his partner after what feels like an eternity Maxwell smugly says: "Hardly broke a sweat."  Pointing at the body Serge has in his arms Maxwell asks: "That our paycheck?" 

[All4BigGuns]

Serge nods, "It's her. I just need to get her back to the office to really do much. She's lost a lot of blood."

[Mulcarn]

"Well let's hurry back to the car then, I don't know how long we have until more gangers show up."

[gilga]

@Sovereign as you begin to make your way to the car Strawberry manifests for you, your parthener does not seem aware of her. She tells you "They found your car already, expect an ambush if you go there".

[Mulcarn]

"Sounds about right, it'd be too easy if we could just go home."  Maxwell's annoyance didn't last long once he realized that he wouldn't be caught off guard this time.  "And I could always summon another elemental if needed."  The thought of getting another chance to exercise his magical power refuels Maxwell with mad energy.  A crooked smile appears on Maxwell's lips as he tells Serge: "I just got word that there is an ambush party waiting for us at our car, so prepare for a fight." 

[All4BigGuns]

Pulling out his pistol, Serge says, "They better not put a scratch on that car."

[gilga]

You approach the car looking for an ambush, checking every every sense, you are on full alert but the more you look for it you spot no ambush near your car. The only thing that changed since you arrived is that there is now a red ford parked about 200 meters from your own car.
