OK. Despite them totally being dead, and Hit Girl more than a little fearful for his temper? Overlord Zetta outright admitting he loved Lash was pretty damn cool. What wasn't cool was that she already knew Ruffnut was injured, and no sheep or anything was going to save her. So this was going to be one of those moments where, despite understanding why she was in the wrong and knowing that in any other circumstances she'd let Ruffnut do this herself,, it was time for action.

And that little rest? She savored it just enough to use her adrenaline to leap into action. She turned, right heel first, gathered Ruffnut in her arms, and made a beeline for the wall, one of the swords mere feet behind. She had to time this just right, and she had never NEVER done this carrying anyone.

Here goes.

She broke into a harder run, charged up the wall a few feet before leaping high enough to land on one of the swords, then using the few very precious seconds she had to leap to another. There was no room for mistakes, and she was not about to wipe out, not with the Overlord and Lash watching, with Ruffnut in her arms.

Virtually? She was leap frogging it with almost perfect balance. And luckily adrenaline was kicking in, because if not she would have been mindful of how this was REALLY HARD CARRYING SOMEONE. Once she found a spot where they could breathe, she;d take that moment to rest.

Looks like it was too late to say she was sorry.
