Omake: Hit Me

"Hold your fire! Squad Manticore, stand at attention and await further instructions! ...Hey, kid, you going to be okay?"

"...Y-yeah..."

"...No..."

"Geez, you really want that extra scratch, huh?"

"...Y-y-yeah..."

"Well, it does suck to be poor, so good luck to you, kid."

"...Th-th-than-"

"Alright then! Squad Manticore, open fire! ...Ah, and down she goes. Guess she needed most of her face after all. You two, haul her off to the Infirmary, pronto."
