Bloody Mess (( if you don't mind?))

Crimson slipped back into the Shatterdome as quietly as a 250 foot battle mech could manage. He knew he shouldn’t sneak out like that, but they hadn’t had a Kaiju alert for weeks, and he hadn’t been gone for too long. He could have sworn that he had closed the hangar door behind him, though…
He felt something slick underneath one of his pedes, and looked down to see a horrifically long streak of oil on the ground. It looked like some Jaeger had been dragged out… or in?
He followed the trail of fluids deeper into the hangar, concern mounting with every step. Someone was heavily damaged. Had there been an attack while he was away? Surely he would have noticed… he had only gone a little ways into the bay…
Rounding a corner, Crimson finally located the source of the fluids. Tacit was crumpled on the ground, having apparently dragged himself out of the water and into the Dome. He hadn’t quite made it to the repair bay- and it was clear that that was where he had been headed. He had suffered horrible damage to the side of his head and his chest and legs, oil and coolant still dripping from his chassis.
Crimson knelt down next to the wrecked Jaeger. He had gone offline, but his systems were still functioning. He hooked his arms around the Mark 1 and lifted him into the air, careful of the crumpled metal that had been the mech’s chest. He started jogging towards the repair bay.
