Rating: PG-13; FOR BLOOD, LOTS OF IT; SOUSHI BEING SOUSHI = OVERDRAMATIC MODE!!



[There was not a moment to lose! Soushi knew every moment counted, every minute, every precious second to save his master from her ultimate demise. A situation he did not foresee. There was no clear signs of his master about to suffer the way she was now. Truth be told, he let his guard down after he witnessed his master's progress with her stab wound. Everything seem to be calm to him as he watched over her. No signs of any kind of trauma, pain, or infections. She made it quite clear that her trust and faith in him did not dwindle. Even if the world used him as a way to cause her harm, she saw right through the illusion. He did not expect any less from her.

After they both promised to be master-and-slave in this life and the next, Soushi's determination to serve her properly returned, he had faith everything would begin to work in their favor. He already had imagined all the activities they were going to do. The many ways he was going to try and change for her. Only for her. After all, he did promise to close the distance between them like she had asked from him. He even has spoken less negatively about himself in front of her. Soushi felt like he was truly beginning to change, even by a bit.

Sadly, however, he began to realize, or rather, he began to sence something was going to happen. Something even worse than the stabbing. Somehow the thought slowly turned into a hunch. It all began with the god, Baldr's, network message to everyone. He somehow knew something might happen to his master. The network posts warned him as such when he witnessed the many citizens beginning to explode in different ways. Some through their body while others through their heads. However, he kept the thought out of his mind's reach because he did not wish the plague to befall on his master.

Which it did. He should not have left her alone. He should have stopped her from testing her theory over checking if her original powers worked. He should have done something to stop her. He should have...

Right now, Soushi was running towards the hospital as far as his legs can allow him with his tiny master in his arms. She was in terrible condition, at the moment. The worse he has seen, almost as if her body has exploded from the inside. There was clearly tears falling down on his cheek, but his expression was full of determination because he wanted to save her. He needed her to be saved! She couldn't...not after everything they have said and done. Not after recently arriving to the world while his master was residing longer. Not after he was able to admit and recognize his feelings towards her. HE COULD NOT FAIL HER! Not again.]

Please, anyone with the power to heal...I need assistance in saving my master. Please! Please I beg of you...please save her. Please.

[His voice began to sound as serious and loud enough to be heard, but it began to crack and grown weaker. His voice was full of plea and grieve. Someone needs to help her! They need to save her! He would do anything it takes to bring her back. No matter how impossible, he would not allow this to happen!]

Comments

video first?!

[histories]

['Not... Not the same petite child again...?!' That was no doubt Keine's first thought, the moment she saw Soushi's post on the network.

With no hesitation whatsoever, her reply is brief, and she would have already began to make her way out of her room and the hall as she does this:] Where can I find you?

video, it is.

[onlyserves]

[Soushi will not be in the best position to attend the bracelet while he is trying to save his master from dying. His full attention is on the situation at hand.

Yet, the bracelet had other plans. A video footage will be switched on, showing his current location was at the hospital with a desperate SS agent calling for help on finding any healers to save his master. There will be much movement with random shots of the hospital surroundings and most of all the front doors. They were still close to the front steps.]

ii just realized but uh... did i read the post itself wrong?

[histories]

[how nice for the bracelet to provide the answer for him... So, they are at the hospital. Certainly there would be healers there as well, but no matter - perhaps they could use every helping hand they can get, especially with the nature of these incidents in mind.]

[Wasting not a single second, she was soon already making her way up the steps to the hospital, and no sooner asking for directions to where treatment for a small, dark-haired girl, accompanied by a white-haired man...]

[onlyserves]

[It will not be too difficult to spot him after a few moments. He stepped out of the room assigned to his master, holding the very same person in his arms. She was wrapped around in the hospital's white blankets as he began to make his way towards the front doors of the hospital. His movement will seem rather slow while the atmosphere surrounding him will begin to feel chiller than usual. The natives that wanted to stop him from leaving the hospital with his master's body began to feel uneasy around him from the very chills, so they scattered away from him; quickly changing their minds in stopping him from leaving.

He will slowly head towards the front doors of the hospital without realizing who was currently in his surrounding area. His mind was in a distant place with every step he took. It was clear he was not in his right state of mind from the way he was so determine to keep every single native away from him. He knew Ririchiyo never felt comfortable being at a hospital, so it was clear he needed to remedy it. There was too many thoughts and emotions swimming in his head and heart that he was unsure over the best next course of action to be.

Other than leaving with his master's corpse, he had a promise to keep after all. Her final wish will be made true. No matter what.]

[histories]

[... it was too late, that much was clear to see - her limp body, still leaking blood with every step he took, and that expression on his face... There was no way she could be still alive, in that condition.]

Mister Miketsukami... [that was all that escapes her lips, as she stood there, unable to decide upon a course of action now that she has seen this]

[onlyserves]

[he stopped dead in his tracks when he heard a distant, but familiar voice calling out to him. there was absolutely silence coming from him, not a single word passed through his lips nor any signs of acknowledge of having heard her neither. at the moment, he was trying to calculate a few thoughts in his mind, hoping to find a way to cover up his despair while not exactly looking pleased either. it had to be a well made performance to keep the other person in a respectful distance, so they wouldn't try to stop him like the natives tried to.

turning his attention towards the owner of the voice, soushi's expression appears to be quite neutral, almost no identified expression can be seen. confusion and look of acknowledgment appears past his facial features a couple of seconds later.]

Oh, it's... [he will return his attention towards his master's peaceful, almost sleeping-like form, it was his job to keep ririchiyo's identitity as an atavisits a secret by covering her horns and oni form using the hospital's pure white blankets (even if they are soaked with blood at a couple of points). once he was done, he will return his attention to keine with a soft, yet sad expression.] ...I almost did not hear your voice, Kamishirasawa-san. [He will turn his body and bow his head.] I apologize. I did not expect for us to meet like this...in such a [It was difficult to discribe it.] ...difficult and harsh time like this...

[histories]

... ['... the poor child...' her expression is no doubt one that is apologetic, as she continues to simply stand there, mildly staring, for a while.]

I'm sorry... [she looks away, as if she had disappointed the man, and had shamed herself by arriving a moment too late.]

[starryguyed]

[ Tsukiko's made a habit of volunteering at the hospital when she's got free time on her hands, although it's been more or less the usual. Helping with medical equipment, filing medical charts and paperwork, cleaning hallways and bathrooms-- she's not expecting much.

... And she certainly isn't expecting to see Soushi burst in with--

With--

Are those horns?

No, before that, that's Ririchiyo, and she drops her cleaning bucket, whips the cloth off of her head, and dashes forward. ]

Soushi-san, what--?!

[onlyserves]

[Soushi held his tiny master protectively from everyone as he continue to search for help. There were many people surrounding him, but he did not trust any of them due to their condition: all of them were the colorless natives. He did not trust any of them, at the moment.

However, when he heard a familiar voice and figure approaching him, Soushi turned his attention towards her. He instantly recognized her. It was the kind girl from long ago, wasn't she? The one who Ririchiyo seem to like most. His features began to soften from his serious expression. He was close to tears from the strength of his emotions, it was too much.]

Ririchiyo-sama....Ririchiyo-sama is...she... [It was difficult to form words, so he'll quickly bow his head.] I beg of you! Please save her! Please...please use your magic...don't allow her to... [His own powers did not work, so he was clearly desperate to save her.]

[patronizing]

[ when the God, Thor, had answered her question on the network she didn’t believe him at first. surely he was just pulling her leg, saying something as ridiculous as that; there was no way people would just explode. but they did, and even though Miketsukami had kept it from her, she’d taken note of the sudden deaths happening over her bracelet. peoples heads exploding, a girl named Rose, and suddenly throwing up blood, a boy named Rin. even though she was the most logical of person, she refused to believe what she saw. Loki was a trickster God, and Baldr... he was just, simply put, a prat.

then it happened -- she couldn’t use her ice magic. she’d became curious and decided to test a theory and before she knew it she was in her youkai form; something she hadn’t possessed since being here. but then her insides felt odd, and not the kind of odd that she’d feel around her SS agent. no, it was different... it was almost as though her insides were liquefying and before she could figure out what was going on she’d started omitting up blood. it started out as a cough at first, and then it became so painful that she began coughing up red liquid. Miketsukami had, at that moment, picked her up bridal-style and started rushing toward the Hospital in Sigyn.

now they were back to the present, she saw white walls and the smell was sickening. even so, she barely managed to pay much attention to it due to her persistent vomiting. her insides were actually starting to burn with every second that passed, and her thoughts were becoming more and more hazy. she could still make out people, but her eyes refused to stay open despite her hardest efforts to keep them that way. ]

M-Miketsukami-...un...

[starryguyed]

[ the thing about being a normal high school girl is that Tsukiko is still not quite used to demons and dragons and little girls vomiting blood. She is, however, not one to panic too much during a crisis, because she's well aware that it would just render her useless.

So her lips press together so tightly that they're merely a line and her eyes narrow, and then she reaches out to catch hold of Ririchiyo's hand. All the crimson is making her feel nauseous, senses reeling momentarily until Tsukiko takes a steadying breath. Normally, she carefully draws on her power, coaxing it into her hands. This time, she yanks on it, desperately, urging as much of that healing energy as she can out of her body and into the one she's trying to save.

It's bad. She knows it is. But somehow, perhaps foolishly, she doesn't want to give up, combat against this, whatever it is, because she couldn't do anything for the others and she'd seen them die, but not her, not her-- ]

Don't talk-- [ and she chokes a little on the words when her voice shakes. ] Please...

[He remained silent to not distract the other young girl's concentration. It was easy to detect from her facial expression that something was amiss. Clearly, something was wrong with the situation. His own heart began to feel anxious over it. Too many emotions were swirling around in his heart, it almost made him feel lightheaded from it all. After all, he has not felt so overwhelm with so many types of emotions until now; Ririchiyo-sama was the only person to make him feel like this. She was the only one he truly cared for more than anything in the world. She was the world to him. His very existance was solely for her, so if anything would to happen, then he, too, would...

Ririchiyo was still speaking, even if it was weak, but it was something. Soushi did not panic in the face of the situation. He couldn't. He did not wish to scare his young master, even if the situation was grave. A forced smile will find a way to his lips as he stoops his head lower to get closer to the side of his master's head. It was the only thing he could offer as a way to comfort her while the healer took care of them.]

It's okay. I am right here by your side, Ririchiyo-sama. Just like I promised you. [He will think about his next set of words carefully before he began to whisper in her ear.] No matter what happens, I will never leave your side. I won't let you go. So please, relax and allow your kind healer friend to look after you. There is still much we have to do together, like getting to know one another better. Also, I wish to...to... [What does he wish to do? It had to be something full of importance, but not enough to make her feel burdened by his own selfish feelings.] to be able to continue to shower all of my affection towards you...

[Somehow he could not help allow his smile to soften at the thought while he began to affectionately nuzzle onto her hair again.]

[patronizing]

[ the affectionate gesture of Miketsukami nuzzling into her hair had an almost soothing effect as she allowed Tsukiko to heal her. however, a part of her knew that it wasn’t working as well she it should which gave her a sinking feeling. she was going to die, and while she had never really been one to fear death, now was different. her heart did fear it and she was scared and was suddenly overwhelmed with the urge to cry because of how scared she was. Miketsukami and herself had done so much progress together, she couldn’t just let it all crumble and go to waste like this. it was then that she regretted snapping at him the way she did when she told him the relationship status of Kanba and herself. why did she have to get so defensive back then? a huge cloud of regret over her actions was hovering over her head. she didn’t want to upset him and more than anything she hated disappointing him.

he gave her the courage to change herself and yet here she was, still unable to repay him for his kindness.

it was getting harder to concentrate and while she heard every word Miketsukami had said, he felt like he was moving further away. why did his voice sound so distant to her? he was right by her side so she should be able to hear it fine, no problem. but his voice was started to sound as though he was on shore while she was drowning in a sea. she held onto his hand, otherwise a gesture which she wouldn’t normally do so boldly. without her command, her eyes began to droop and close but she did manage to speak despite not being told to. ]

Your hand... it’s warm. [ a lot warmer than her own which was like ice. her entire body felt like ice actually. she lets out a content sound, her eyes still closed. ] Don’t leave me alone...

[ having said that in such a sad voice, the strength from her grip vanished as did the strength in the rest of her body. her breathing stopped and no movement came from her.

just a limp body. ]
