Tenaya's systems were on red alert. Her fever was spiking so much that no amount of coolants could lower the temperature of her mechanical systems. A bit of rest would have been able to get her to at least cool down somewhat, but the contagion wouldn't let her do that. She was restless and aggravated, and she'd already gotten into one fight. Her body was still too hot.

And right now, she was not in any mood to deal with anyone. Pity the poor souls to come across her while the City was in chaos.

"Whoa!" The shot comes out of nowhere, Ratchet's scanners picking up the woman's presence a split second before she fires on him. He pulls hard to the side, the blaster shot grazing his front bumper and before he can re-orientate himself, Goliath is swooping in.

Transforming immediately, Ratchet hurries towards the two, not sure yet if one or both were infected, but prepared to subdue them if they were.

Goliath takes the punch, not expecting much, and is surprised. He doesn't go flying, but he stumbles, the wind knocked out of him. He digs into the ground with his talons and rushes at the girl again, trying to get her in a lock.

First he was being shot at, then the woman shooting at him was being attacked and now, well.. Ratchet has no idea what's going on now. Only that it seemed entirely possible that he was dealing with two infected persons. Did the sick fight each other? Did it work like that?

He reaches Tenaya just before Goliath does and moves to grab her and pull her out of the way of the charging whatever-it-is, except he doesn't expect the woman to weigh as much as she does. So really, the best he does if he manages to get a hold of her is drag her a few feet instead of completely sweeping her out of the way as planned.

"Hey! Hey! Break it the frag up!"
