Flinching at the sound of shouting coming from the kitchen, Ricky ran* back to the warehouse entrance where he came in, and turned right, away from the cafeteria doors. He heard the female Slig mumble something, then start snoring quietly. Struggling to shift her into a position that wasn't blocking her airways, he made his way to an elevator, hopped in and pressed the 1st Floor button. He then looked at the female Slig's face, who seemed to be unconscious. 'Great,' he thought, 'This is gonna make things interesting...'

"If I were you I'd try to find that friend of yours, before he lands himself in front of threatening guns.. again. If you need my help, I'll be happy to join you." the Mudokon had said. Cal sighed, thinking. Then that voice hissed again;
'Pah, who's this scum think he is?! He's implying you can't get out on your own! You gonna take that?' Cal's pupil visibly contracted, as he looked at the Mudokon. Giving himself a mental shake, he decided he could actually use his help. Not to mention, this guy had pretty much saved his life. Turning to the Mud, he decided to introduce himself... to an extent.
'Help, eh? I guess I could use a bit of help. Name's Cal.' he didn't bother offering his hand; he still didn't really trust this guy. He'd noticed the Slig(#9) creeping away, but he decided to save revenge for another time.
'Didn't your Papa never tell you 'bout talkin' to strangers?' the malicious voice chuckled, and Cal felt a horrible pang as he remembered his father... but, he tried to ignore it, as he waited for the Mudokon' reply.

Wic flinched a little as he felt a gentle hand pat his head, and looked up again to see the white-skinned Slig put his blade away.
“I wont hurt, unless you do something stupid. So don’t do that, and you’ll be fine.” he'd said, and Wic nodded nervously. He looked up at the nice lady Slig, and remembering what she'd said before, he beamed up at her.
'Okay.' he said simply. He just knew this person could be trusted, she'd never turn them in, she was too nice.
OOC:
*By run, I mean a normal run for Ricky, not Race Mode. He'd probably drop Agent if he tried that.
I think the cafeteria door's open, so the group could probably go in, and the animals are all elsewhere now, anyway.
