[Audio] Just A Lil Buggy...

[saisdoesmatter]

*with the whole hitting up Nirvana thing and it NOT being the actual end of the road trip from hell, there were still lots of things to do. While others poured over information and the like, Raph braved the roads when the storms around the area weren't too bad. His bike was strong enough to take it and he had a feeling there was more to discover on the outskirts before they all moved on*

*even if he didn't have much luck, he parked at one point to radio in, since the winds made chattering to the rest of the convoy difficult at times*

Not much luck finding anything worth looking at within the agreed upon scouting range. I'd keep going but I know we're going to leave in the next few days so we'll be going further out anyway.

I'll be doublin' back in a few since I need a break.

I swear the terrain out here is trying to rattle me right outta my she--

*right in the middle of his report back, there's a sickening CRUNCH that cuts him off, following only with a scream of pain as the radio goes quiet for now as he dropped for the time being as another new monster form decided to sneak up on him*



[OOC: I promised I'd get this up before next event but Raphie's got double trouble coming his way. He'll pick up the radio to answer people who audio's back at him after he catches his breath but this boy's getting his scarab wings! :D Which means his shell's cracking to accommodate it. Otherwise you can come find him if you want.]

*the whole impending changes thing has left him wiped the hell out right out, forcing himself to focus on Rock as his new buddy comes to help him*

I think--it's a new form or something---*he manages, hissing as the pieces of shell want to lift and expose the new wings* --not an attack--ugh...

[Oof. So he was right. It wasn't an assassin that managed to get the drop on Raph, but a possible moon warp that the ninja turtle got himself stuck through! Naturally, he sympathizes given how painful changes can be.]

[Shakily, Rock got up to his hooves and extended a hand out to Raph slowly.]

Here, I'll see what I can do ... [He then looks out to both his own and Raph's motorbikes.] ... especially since we'll have to find a way to haul your bike back to the Convoy, Raph.

*for the most part, other than the split shell and some armour plating at his joints, he's essentially the same demon-turtle thing. He takes the offered hand though, hanging on as he knows they need to get out of here in case something DOES show up to try and eat him. That'd be just his luck*

Mnh, okay--best to try and get the hell outta here... *though he cracks a smile* It'll return on its own. All of them have like...some autopilot thing...

[rockitforme]

[Rock simply raises his eyebrows.]

Really? [He's not even skeptical, but rather intrigued.] Like nobody is going to steal it or anything? [Rock definitely has to check his own motorbike on a later time. An autopilot is definitely good.]

[Once Rock was able to pull Raph up to his feet, he then hoists one of the turtle's arm around his shoulders and carries him over to his own motorbike. He then gestures to Raph to hop on.]

I'll drive you back, Raph. Are you able to hang onto me if I do?

[Hopefully, Raph has enough strength to grip onto him. Having a moon warp mutation is one thing, but falling off of the motorbike is another.]

[saisdoesmatter]

Yeah...sounds fake, huh? But I guess it's just somethin' that happens within the convoy.

*he leans against Rock, feeling drained like he had been training for months straight* Don't think so... haven't heard of anyone losin' their vehicles before. But ya could ask around--I might not know.

*going with Rock to his bike, the weary is catching up with him - partly from his own fear of what had happened to him and partly because his body wants to shut down and rest. But he manages to get on, since riding is second nature to him*

Yeah, I--I should be able to if you focus on drivin'.
