Ali Krista
Route 208 - Hearthome City
"Woah."
Ali had strolled out of the tent with purpose, neglecting the opportunity to take in his surroundings. As he walked out he stumbled on a loose rock, losing his balance on the edge of a steep decline. He caught himself in time, jarring his shoulder as he did so. The General looked down over the edge to see a route beneath him, the buildings of Hearthome visible on the horizon. He was above the freakin' cave of Mt. Coronet!
Suddenly, a loud rumble could be heard beneath Ali's feet, and the ground trembled vigorously. That'll be Mark with the explosives then. Regaining balance, Ali made towards the edge of the mountain, looking over the rocky side. Getting down that with no ropes and a recently broken arm? Piece of cake. The General began his decline, slowly lowering himself down the mountain face. The rocks were loose from the explosive blast, and made for very unsure footholes. If the explosives had wait just a few more minutes... Ali thought bitterly, knowing he could have been at the bottom already.
Without warning, one of the rocks beneath Ali's feet gave way. He thrust his arm out to grab something before he fell, but everything was beginning to tumble around him. His right arm caught itself on a branch, keeping him in the air. Ali yelled in pain as his bad arm yanked himself upwards, but he was safe. And what's more, he was near the ground, too.
Beneath his dangling feet he could see a small convoy; the soldiers were on their way out of the tunnel. With a grin Ali jumped from his branch, landing softly next to a group of young soldiers. Some of them yelped in terror as they saw their general fall from the sky, but the nearest merely saluted.
"Ah, good. I need weapons, any of you packing?" Ali said, ignoring any formalities.
"Well, er, I found these..." The nearest soldier said, slightly taken aback by Ali's abruptness. He held out an electro gun and an XM25 - Ali's weapons.
"Good man! I was wondering who'd find these. Now come on, get a move on. Go!" Ali was a lot more comfortable in the war seat now, and couldn't wait to get back on the battlefield. His blood lust was rising, and he kind of liked it.

After a short while the convoy reached Hearthome City, where the soldiers broke ranks to meet with relatives, visit the church or get a strong drink from the Mart. Ali began to roll his shoulders out of habit, but stopped as he winced at the pain. He took more medication and headed to the Concert Hall at the back of the city.
