The sleeper awakes

[lightinnocence]

Emily can be seen in a bit of a heap against a wall in a grease stained pair of overalls, a tool belt on her waist. She stirs slightly, looking around sleepily before putting a hand to head and rubbing slightly.

"Ugh... well... this is awfully different. Didn't exactly think being dead would be quite like this..."

. . . Protomen!Emily, I presume?

Protoman stalked the corridors, pausing only when he came across Emily.

He tilted his head to one side, frowning slightly. Something about her stirred memories hidden deep in his circuitry. Even so . . .

He crouched down, offering Emily a hand.

" . . . You too?"

Yup yup~! :D

[lightinnocence]

She took the hand gratefully, and rubbed her forehead - or more accurately, where she had been struck and killed - as she stood.

"I guess so. I... I have no memory of coming here... or where 'here' even is."

I thought so :D Protomen = EPIC WIN

Protoman nodded slowly, helping Emily to her feet. "That make two of us," he said. "Last I knew, I was outside Wily's fortress, facing my brother . . . then there was a brilliant flash of light, and I found myself in a blank white room."

He looked up and down the hallway, suddenly wary.

"We should get out of here, miss. I don't know what's going on, but whatever it is - it can't be good."

A pause, then: " . . . Might I ask your name?"

AND HOW~!

Emily blinked and just tried to wrap her mind around everything, but her head was splitting and only a little bit of that registered through the cloud of pain throbbing in her head.

"W-Wily...? Brother..." She blinked a bit and shook her head slightly as she struggled to her feet.

"Emily. Emily Stanton..."
