[Another soldier falls, followed by yet another one. There doesn't seem to be an end for them, but that's fine as there's no end for his anger either. It brings back memories, it almost feels like fighting Hades' army, except that the Specters didn't use firearms. He dodges a bullet that scratches his cheek, turning to look at Kairi, wounded again. He grits his teeth.]

Don't push yourself! This will be useless if they kill you or if you bleed out from the wounds!

[Flames crack in the air and raise, burning soldiers around them as he jumps to place himself in front of her. He understands her will to keep fighting, to be of use, but for him it feels as if it's just adding more to the load. He never expected to miss having the person he was rescuing mostly incapacitated to act until the situation was under control.]

[She looked over slightly, surprised, but at the same time felt happy that he was helping it. But she knew he had to because she was close to her limit.]

I'm sorry, but I'll try and not push myself too much, but we do need to get going.

[But the question of the matter was, how exactly were they to escape.]

Let's head towards the others, we should regroup.

[He reaches back to take hold of one of her wrists before he leaps forward and starts running from the area. He doesn't like it, but it's true that they can't just stay there and fight every soldier. Not when some of them are wounded already, not when their priority should be to rescue the members of the crew that had been captured.]

Don't let them escape!

[She nodded, simply letting him lead the way, especially considering she had no idea where to go anyway. Trying as she might, she kept up as best as she could, letting the pain mean nothing, but in reality her legs were starting to hurt.]

How far is it to the ship?

The problem isn't how far it is, but how many soldiers are gathering on the path towards it. Either way the distance isn't big.

[He stops as they reach an open area, filled with soldiers swarming around. Some running towards where Ace's causing all the ruckus, others running to chase the prisoners and other pirates... Ikki frowns as they are spotted and turns to pull Kairi closer to his body, practically hugging her as the soldiers fire a first round of bullets. As the shots sounds ring on their ears, Ikki speaks, lowly to the girl.]

Even with Ace's fireworks this isn't going to be easy. When they stop to recharge I want you to drop to the ground and don't move unless you have to hold your ground there. I'll open a path, once that's done, you run through it towards the exit on the other side, got it?

[The soldiers that had been running after them shouldn't reach them until a few minutes later as he had ran at the top speed a human could go, even knowing that she was wounded. It was needed to get a fair advantage over the others.]

[She nodded slightly, she understood fully what it was she had to do, all that was left was t let him do whatever it was he had planned to do.]

Okay, that should be easy enough to do. Just give me a signal when I have to run.

Good.

[He nods and endures the shooting a bit more before he finds his opening in a moment when some soldiers are charging their rifles again. Despite the wounds on his back, with the bullets buried in his body piercing his flesh, Ikki moves fast, letting go of Kairi hoping that she follows her part and turning around to face the soldiers. Flames arise all around him as he basically flies, flapping his arms like wings, the form of a phoenix, a bird made of pure fire, surrounds him.]

Hōyoku Tenshō!!!

[Ikki's voice calling his attack is all that is heard before the sound of flames spiraling towards the soldiers fills the place, their screams drowned by the raging fire. Those in the line of the attack burn within seconds, and those who aren't are thrown away towards the walls violently by the storm like wind that accompanies the flames. Within minutes there's a wide and clear path from where they stood towards the exit.]

Kairi, now!!

[Kairi looed over a face showing sheer determination to do what she must. In this case actually following what she was told to do, so when the signal arrived, she nodded before running as fast as her swore legs could take her towards the exit. Getting closer she could feel her heart pounding. it felt like it could come out of her chest at any moment, but now wasn't the time to stop and take a breath. Even when she was running she glances back, hoping that he was okay himself.]

Come on, follow me now!

[He remains behind just enough to make sure that she gets to the exit safely, when she calls for him he punches the walls around the door so they crumble behind them. It doesn't block the exit, but it should delay the soldiers enough for them to get a good advantage. He runs quickly, easily catching up with her, this time he sneaks a hand around her waist to hold her up like that so she doesn't have to run anymore.]

We're almost there, there should be no problem now. Once in the ship we will check those wounds of yours.

[She nods, now she knows full well she can't run or walk much now, so she lets him do what he must in order for them to get out.]

Can we wait till the others arrive before tending to my wounds when we get there?

No.

[His reply is firm and quick. However, he adds something after a moment.]

First we check your wounds, if they are not serious you can wait, but it would be better if not either way. If any of the others ends more wounded than you we will have to focus on them when everyone gathers and the Navy isn't going to give us a rest for a pleasant escape.

[She nods, she knew technically she wouldn't of had much of a say, but she did at least try at least.]

All I really have are slashed from when they lashed us and obvious where I was shot, but nothing life threatening.

We will check those shot wounds, there are many places in the body where a wound like that can be lethal if not treated in time.

[And that she wasn't in a perfect state before those shots doesn't help, she could have had a main vein damaged without her realizing that she's bleeding to death until it's too late. He doubts that's the case, of course, but it's better to make sure.]

[She just keeps as quite as she could for the meantime, she knew he was right and still was right and there wasn't much left for her to say or argue in all honesty. She will just let him do what he must and she will just keep her eyes open for anything.]

[Good girl. The good news are that Ikki manages to reach to the ship shortly after, leaving her on the deck before he checks her wounds. The better news are that after all they weren't as bad as they could have been, the one on her leg, though, he didn't like its position.]

You're lucky, they could have caused a real mess had they aimed a few inches to the right on your leg. We should take the bullet out, though, unless you can promise that you won't move until everyone is back and we can treat everyone at once.

[She nodded, she knew she couldn't move much anyway and that wouldn't make her very useful later on if she was needed.]

I have no reason to move, even if I was able to currently. S resting up and getting better so I can help later is the best option I can take.

Then I'll leave you here now and go back to help the others. Okay?

[He does, however, pick her up again and place her in a more hidden place, just in case.]

[She nods, she knows he still has things he can still do, while she couldn't.]

Just try and be as careful as you can, okay?

Don't worry, they need far more than this to kill me, or even be a problem.

[He has sustained a good amount of wounds already, but none of them is serious for him. He doesn't let her see them, though, no need to worry her before all this is over.]

[She nods, she will believe in him.

Okay, then good luck.
