Rock's helper instincts kicked right in. He bolted from the room like a flash. He returned about a minute later with a first aid kit. He'd helped clean up after lab accidents, bandaging wounds, before. He knew just what to do. He even thought to bring a blanket for Zero. They weren't exactly pants, but beggars couldn't be choosers.

He made Zero sit down, knelt down, and started to look at his foot to treat it.
