Jace has Cameron covered -- go help Delilah! Begrudingly.

This doesn't mean you like her or condone her attitudes or anything. It's just that she's the most in trouble right now, and she's a classmate and a teammate. So, for the sake of your class and your team, you're going to help her out!

Your pistol is fully loaded, so without any pause you start running down the gravel path and towards the bridge, leaving the sounds of battle behind you as you go. She'd better appreciate this, because you're really going out of your way for her right now!

"I'm here!" You call out as you reach the base of the stairs. "Don't worry! I'm here to help!"

Delilah turns her head to the side to get a look at you and groans, before jumping over a scythe swing from the monster.

You're not in this line of work to be liked, it'd just be nice. Your goal is just to beat the monster, so even though she's in one of her moods right now, you straighten your gun arm towards the monster. You shut one eye, lining up the other one with your pistol's top chamber-barrel to get a good estimate of where the bullet will land, but Delilah's attacks and dodges keep getting her in the way of having a clear shot. You keep trying to find a good angle for a bit longer, so that you don't have to try get her to cooperate, but when that goes nowhere you drop your arm with a huff and call out to her again.

"Delilah!" You say. "mgonna shoot it. Look out!"

You lift your gun arm again, ready for your opportunity, but Delilah not only doesn't comply -- she also doesn't even respond, just keeps jumping around and swinging her sickles against the monster's chitin as she focuses on keeping her breath level. This girl is the worst.

"Delilah-" You start again, in case she didn't hear you, but she cuts you off before you get far.

"Debbie!" She says, angrily. "If you insist on being a nuisance, at least be a helpful one." She catches a swinging scythe in the curves of her sickles, straining against it for a second before pushing it off. "I'm going to throw something to you, but I just want you to hold it, got that? Do not touch anything on it, buttons or switches or anything."

You nod. Then you realise she is facing the other way.

"Okay!" You say. You're not sure what's going on, and really you just want to shoot the monster, but if Delilah's trying something close to teamwork right now then you don't want to discourage it.

"Say the words!" She says, planting a foot on the bridge's bannister and kicking off of it to jump over a strike aimed at her torso, then hitting the monster with both sickles as she lands. It's still useless, since they hit the chitin, but it looks cool. "Say that you're not going to touch any buttons or switches!"

"I won't touch any buttons or switches." You say. It sounds like she really means it, so you mean it too.

Delilah moves back to avoid another of the monster's attacks, reaching into a pouch on her leather armour to grab a small device which she throws back to you. Even though she's not looking, it goes right to your chest. You do catch it, but only just. She didn't see the fumbling though, so you're golden.

With it in your hands, Delilah jumps up off of the bannister again -- this time, her foot lands on the monster's back, which she uses to springboard all the way to the other side of the bridge to land daintily on the land on the other side of the narrow stream. You stand and watch.

"TOP BUTTON!" She yells across to you, hands cupped either side of her mouth. "UNDER THE HATCH!"

It's easy to locate the button she's talking about on the little handheld device, and even easier to flick the little hatch up with your thumb to reveal exactly what it was covering. The monster on the bridge snarls, and starts running towards Delilah at the high pace you now know its species for.
