Hiro hadn't expected his friend to leave him behind, and he probably would've been offended if she did. What he hadn't expected was for her to attempt to carry him to the shack from where they were. Feeling guilty he quickly decided that his wounds were in his gut and as she lifted he got to his feet and hunched, keeping one hand on his gut for effect. His other arm went around Charlie's shoulders, if he couldn't use his cane he needed some guide. He didn't put much weight on her, he kept it mostly to his own legs but it was enough to get the feel of war across.
"I'm going to get both of us killed." He said as they continued their way to the shack.

Charlie was partially glad that she didn't have to carry him, but it would have been a challenge for her that she would have liked to take on. Either way, she fine with helping him up. "Shut up," she commanded, but in a way that meant that she didn't want her best to think they would go down easily.
Using one hand to keep his arm steady around her shoulder and another around his ribs, they inched foward with occaisonal, until they finally made it to the door, safe from harm. "We're home! Sorta."

"Let's let ourselves in." Hiro said as he kicked the door open. He thanked his lucky stars that the door had been slightly ajar when his foot hit, otherwise the door wouldn't have openned so easily.

By then, Charlie did feel like she was in an action movie. "Cool!" she said when he kicked the door. She hadn't noticed the door being ajar, so she thought it was all Hiro. "That kicked butt. Come on, we gotta see what's in here!" She said as she entered in and was surprised that it wasn't as bad as she thought. She'd seen mock haunted houses look worse.

"That? That was noth..."
Knock it off!
"...Ing I've never done before." Hiro changed his sentance in the middle of it hoping to keep the illusion that he did something impressive. It seemed like the war situation was over now that they were in the shack so Hiro no longer hunched or held his stomach. He did seem to forget to take his arm off her shoulders though.

"Dude, you're lika Hulk or somethin'." Charlie replied, though she had forgotten that maybe he didn't know about the pop culture reference. Still, if he wanted to know, he could just ask about it. Either way...
She had turned to Hiro when she noticed he wasn't "wounded" anymore. In fact, he didn't lean any of his weight on her anymore, so she was puzzled at why he still had his arm around her. She quaintly blushed, and thought about approaching it. "I guess you healed yourself from your 'wound', eh?"

Hiro didn't have much time to think about the hulk comment before she had caught him. He knew it was a bad idea in the first place. His face turned red faster then his arm came off her shoulders.
"Yeah...I..um..er..." Hiro probably had this one coming. "You see...um...a medic came by when I kicked the door in." He had backed up a few feet to give Charlie some room after he had been caught.

Charlie was throroughly glad that he didn't see her turn a darker pink. Even then, did she turn away as he gave her room. "Uh... yeahoooummm...." She was at a loss for words. "Huwu... Heey! Have you ever heard any stories about this place?" Yeaah. Change the subject. Change the subject, she told herself.

Not only had he made an obvious mistake but Hiro realized it would hang over them for a while as Charlie had trouble continuing. Hiro cleared his throat before speaking.
"Well not really, I suppose there's some creatures or something that used to or still inhabit this place." He was glad of the change of subject but it didn't help his checks which were almost matching his orange hair.

"Oh... that ain't too bad. I don't care much about creatures and stuff. I can handle them, I think. What I can't handle's--" Good thing she stopped herself, or else she would have finished with 'the dark'. No, no, no... she wasn't going to reveal that. "--umm, nevermind. Come on," She nudged Hiro, "I think I see some stairs."
(tell me if I'm wrong...)

Hiro wasn't going to admit that he already knew about her unusual fear of dogs, if she wanted to keep it secret he wasn't going to talk about it.
"Awesome." Hiro said finding his mistake wasn't completely noticed when Charlie again came close to him.

Charlie had taken two steps at a time, looking up at the ceiling. A tiny bit of light poked through, and she could still see the sun, dulled by the light clouds covering it. "At least it ain't evenin' yet," she found herself saying, and looked back at Hiro. It seemed to be the wrong moment to look back, as her foot stamped on a weak board, and her foot fell through. She yelped as her foot went through, yet her hand tried to hold onto something.

"Charlie!?" Hiro had been a few steps behind her when a loud crash reached him. At first he thought she was falling back down but it didn't sound right. He continued to close in until his cane found a spot with no boards. "Where are you!?"
(Wasn't sure if you fell through or not)

(oops. Still there.)
"R-right here," Charlie grunted as she finally held on to a higher step to get her foot out of the missing board. Her balance was regained and she lifted out the leg, despite a few scratches. And oooh, was that a splinter?
She sat on the higher steps and dabbed at a few bleeding spots where she was skinned. "Just fell through a board. Stupid me," She hissed in pain as she pulled out a splinter that was about the size of a needle, just a bit thicker.

"Are you hurt?" Hiro asked before the unforgetable scnet of blood reached his nose. Hiro would've been right beside her but he didn't know how big the hole was or where the weak points were. "How bad?"
