"Okay, so, she just needs rest, Brie, you stay with her, make sure she drinks lots of water, if something else goes wrong, call me, and I can help." If i'm not gone by then. Helen could tell Brie was leaving something out, but, who was Helen to judge?
Bia took a deep breath and sat down beside Brie. "Let me." Bia gathered water to her palm and pressed it against Ella's head.
"Bia, I think Ella is fine for now, just unconscious. Brie can take care of her herself. Besides, um, my dreams have been really unsettling and I think something bad is about to happen and I need to tell you about it." Helen started to sweat, her pulse racing. Bia could read her mind. (right? maybe?)
Bia looked up at Helen. "Umm, alright. Kana stay here." Bia followed Helen out to the living room. "What's up???"
(Lol sorry everbody I had a forensics tourney yesterday from 6am to 9pm So I literally had no time to get on but here we are so…)
Swinging on a hammock outside the bunkers invisible door archia was blastin away at his tunes and singing along. Archia decided to let everybody have some space with ella and brie going all willy-nilly on a tree, when he heard some sort of slam, like a van's door slamming "that doesn't sound like the bus" Archia thought. Flying up and over to hide away Archia sits and waits
"You know the metal man? Yes, of course you do, but, I think he's been reaching out to me in my dreams and he's been wanting me to… do things." Helen put her hand into her pocket, fingering the knife. "I'm sorry."
Bia looked confused. "Sorry about what? What does he want you to do?"
"This." Quick as a flash, Helen pulled the knife out, stabbing Bia in the lower stomach, a bit to the side. "I never wanted to do this." The tears welled up in Helen's eyes as she yanked the knife to the side, breaking even more of Bia's skin. She would survive, of course, just not be able to walk for a while. Helen climbed out the window where her bag was waiting for her. Of course, Bia's scream attracked more attention from Kana and Brie as they rushed in to help her, but Helen was already gone. Racing to the woods, she had seen the way before, in her dreams, and right there, where he was supposed to be, was the metal man, waiting, a slight smirk on his face as Helen skidded to a halt in front of him. "What now?"
(I'm so sorry, Bia. This hurts even me to write it.)
(Kana!!!!!! Help her!!!!!!!!)
(somebody, hear Bia screaming!)
Bia gasped for air as the wound bled, creating a pool of blood under her. Helen………………….
Brie gently pressed the cold towel to Ella's forehead, discreetly taking her hand. She felt guilty; she hadn't done anything to stop Ella from showing her whatever had happened, even seeing how terrified Ella had been about showing her powers.
She sighed and rested her head on the side of the bed. Then an ear-shattering scream erupted from outside. In an instant, Brie and Kana were out the door.
"Bia!" Brie shrieked upon seeing her friend on the floor, a growing pool of blood around her. Brie desperately pressed her hands to Bia's side.
"Wh- what happened?" Brie questioned, holding Bia's head up from the floor.
(this is killing me inside, omg)
(HELEN HOW COULD YOU?)
(I kid, don't worry. To your credit, it's a great twist)
Bia saw Brie and Kana hovering around her, but it was blurry. She couldn't tell if she was dreaming or not. She tried to form a word, but only managed a weak sigh.
(no but literally i am hurting everywhere)
(shurikenwolfbadass_13 come back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)
Kana was frozen in shock. With a strength she didn't know she had, Brie picked Bia up and carried her into Ella's bedroom. She kicked the blanket off the bed and gently set Bia down on the sheet.
She sprinted to a bathroom and grabbed supplies: towels, disinfectant, and gauze. She ran back to the bedroom and knelt beside Bia, inspecting the wound. It was deep.
"Okay, Bia, everything I have to do is painful, so just take deep breaths and try to stay calm, that might slow the flow of blood a bit." She used a towel to sponge off the worst of the blood and gently rubbed the medicine into the cut. "Alright, Bia, you might want to close your eyes, I have to cauterize this." Brie whispered.
She extended her palm face up and closed her eyes; she directed her natural body heat to her palm until the slight glow of fire appeared in it. Then, inhaling, she set it to the cut.
Brie hadn't realized this, but Bia has passed out after Brie had picked her up. Nightmares flooded Bia's mind, trapping her in her worst fears.
(Hello?????????????? Anybody here???????????)
(i'm here, I just don't know what to write)
(shurikenwolfbadass_13 needs to come back. Idk maybe 'The Assistant' can tell Helen her next task???)
Brie kept her hand on Bia's wound when she didn't cry out. She assumed she was unconscious at this point.
When she removed her hand, the injury was still red and slightly bloody, so she rubbed in some ointment and dressed it tightly in gauze.
The Assistant led Helen through the woods, not saying anything. You could hear a pin drop it was so quiet. Suddenly, The Assistant stopped. "Here." He said. His voice was oddly smooth and low and hollow, like and oboe talking. Helen had never heard his voice before. Was this where they were staying for the night? She looked around her before sitting down and taking out some bread from her bag. The Assistant did nothing. "Sit down. Want some bread?" Helen offered. It was the least she could do if she was going to be traveling together for what she guessed was going to be a long time. "What's your name? Your real name."
The Assistant said nothing, took the bread, and sat down. The metal hand clinked against the ground.
(umm how should i hop into this :P)
(Just walk into the room where Bia an the others are.)
(Kk)
Samuel paced anxiously about the house, not sure what to do and where to go. He made his way slowly from room to room before finally stumbling across Bia and the others, all freaking out over something he couldn't see from his viewpoint. "W-what's happening?"
Brie jumped and turned around at the sound of the door opening.
"What's happening?" Samuel asked. Brie turned back to the girls on the bed. "Ella's still unconscious, and I think Bia has a temperature. I'm not sure what happened."
(Bia was just freaking stabbed and she's through the worst of it?!?)
Hold on. Hold on. You'll be okay. All Bia could feel was pain. She couldn't remember……. Where was she??? Why couldn't she move???? She knew someone was talking to her……………. Why could she only remember one name??? And who was it???? Kana. Who was Kana???
