Sawbones was intrigued by Ransom’s request but Kalahan obviously wasn’t. The Road Warrior had whipped out a crossbow in an instant and had deemed the wanderer’s life forfeit after he had requested of the blood of the Angel Combustion. While he couldn’t give a fangin’ kidney about the life of some nobody half-life, there was a use to him. His presence, his voice….it would require more observation. Besides, having him alive was more beneficial than dead. He couldn’t risk Kalahan damaging his corpse beyond repair……

Sawbones rushed towards Kalahan, right in front of his crossbow, acting as a barrier between him and Ransom. He made sure to position himself so that the crossbow wouldn’t hit his squishy bits. But, which one to choose? Liver wasn’t really that essential….He could live with one kidney……It would be painful with one lung…..

Right in front of the kidney it was. Sawbones spoke in an even tone, raising his hands upwards towards Kalahan to placate him.

Sawbones then slowly crawled over towards Ransom, his googles hiding his lecherous gaze, as he inspected each and every part of Ransom as if he was a juicy animal, muttering under his breath. He then pointed at the side of Ransom’s neck with his scapel, poking the bulging vein playfully with the rusty sharp edge.

The wind then whipped and then, began to jiggle the sand up and down as it lightly pushed down Sawbones back. Sawbones head twitched to the front, at the encroaching storm. His first reaction was to bolt down and huddle around his treasured Panacea but he stopped as he saw distinct lights irradiating out of the dense fog. Headlights. Headlights that belonged to cars. Several cars. Cars with people in it. 
If it was the same raiders who nearly ended his quest of fulfilling the sacred commandments of the Great Hippo…..Sawbones pulled out his scapel and toyed with it in his hands, his bandaged mask hiding his grin. 

[color=DarkSlateBlue]“Would you look at that…. More [i]practise[/i]….” [/color]

The wind began to kick up, the broken vehicles tilting to the side now, metallic yawning filling his ears. Sawbones screamed over the roar of the encroaching storm, his mask and goggles protecting his face from the particles of sand that collided with his face. It wasn’t that far now. 

[color=DarkSlateBlue]“ Convoy coming in with the storm! Everyone, hide behind something! Fast!” [/color]
