Fantasy What I've Done

[The Darkling]

Freyja almost stumbled when he did and laughed, "Its fine..like I said, I have seen enough hospital drama in my life. The only thing is are you sure you want to try and can you be convincing enough?" She looked at him seriously, it was a funny plan she knew that but she didnt want any 'accidents' happening if they happened to be separated. She was done with letting normal people push others like them around. They were hurt for gods sake.

 

[Cotten]

Sitting up in rapid succession he was alarmed to hear voice near where he was, making his instincts kick driving him to hide as fast as he could. He did not want to be found by any normal person for he knew how sick people could get and didn't want to think about it in detail. he wasn't able to defend himself especially since he was in such a poor physical state, against what his instincts told him he called out to them. "I-if your going to kill me quit playing games and do it you hear?" he says half out of courage and half of fear.

 

[The Darkling]

Ella sat up up and rubbed her back, "Ow...like im going to be able to hurt you..like I would want to anyway" She looked at her watch, she knew it was going to be to late to find any money or food at this point. She only has 20 minutes, and when your trying to steal and get away with it thats no time at all. She looked back up to the place where the man had been, he seemed to be the only one here now. If she was going to change then here would be the place.

 

[Axeykins]

"If it gets you some help faster than I'll give it a shot." He smiled confidently. Trying his best to take this plan as seriously as possible. He wasn't exactly a grade A actor, heck, he barely even passed drama class and all he had to do was manage the lights. But he was an excellent faker. That should be enough in this situation.

 

[The Darkling]

Finally they had reached the front of the hospital and she took a deep breath, "Well you need help to mister so lets hope.." They walked into the hospital and thankfully due to the time of night it had less people than normal. But the few that were there had already stopped to stare. "Excuse me but..me and my fiancee need some help. Some men ganged up on us and im afraid our injuries are pretty bad" She smiled weakly and looked at the nurse who though was taken a back by the situation couldnt stop staring at Lucid. "A pair of sinners right? by the looks of it ill just say yes.." She looked disgusted but she called over two people to help them.

 

[Cotten]

*What was that supposed to mean?* he thought to himself, and why was there someone here, now at this hour in such an abandoned place? he could ponder all he wanted, but now there was the problem of identifying this person. "Then why are you here? this is no place to be taking a stroll" He says keeping in mind that they could very well be scrappers or someone trying to steal anything they could get their hands on.

 

[The Darkling]

Ella just sat there totally defeated, "Look im just going to be honest here..I just wanted money for food. Its been a rough couple of days" She crossed her arms and flopped backwards looking up at the sky.

 

[Axeykins]

"Thank you...thank you so much.." Even though she looked at them disgusted he gave the woman a relieved expression. As the other two came over to help them he made sure to stick close to Freyja's side. Trying his best to act like a very concerned fiancee. "I think they broke some of her ribs and one punctured her lung...I-I don't know really, but she said her chest was hurting her horribly."

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja released his arm and held his hand, "Its only a guess but..my breathing is ragged and ive been coughing up blood. I also think his wing is broken can you help him to?" It was certainly not something the nurses were used to hearing and they looked at each other with weird looks. "Well..we have one doctor who might be able to help him, but you should be easy to help. He should be out shortly but you can come with us" Freyja stepped away from them, "Um...actually..I would like if we could stay together.." She tried to pull the look of fear and sadness. One nurse sighed and shooed the other away, "Im tired and really dont want to be messing with sinners right now..come this way" Freyja looked at Lucid with a happy grin.

 

[Cotten]

Taking a second to take in the situation he slowly comes out hiding and approaches the female making sure to stay at most 20ft away, just in case it was a trap. "Food? i don't have any food" he says with his sullen gaze. He thinks back to the kindness Freyja had given him and decided that helping someone other then himself would be his final and only good act before he dies of hunger in what he guessed was two days. ".....Here.." he says reluctantly as he tries to pull out the money with his mouth, after pushing up the bottom of his pocket with his wrist and pulling it out he goes over to her and crouches down. "Tak iit"

 

[The Darkling]

Ella sat up and hugged her legs looking at him oddly and a bit worriedly. When he approached her she backed away. She realized whatever he was doing was difficult because whatever came in contact with his hands just faded through it. Which for her was kind of relieving because he couldnt grab her. When he handed her money she gasped, "I-i cant take this much!" Her eyes were wide but were sparkling with the thought of buying some food.

 

[Cotten]

Frowning a little at the site of her reeling back from him and proclaiming that she wouldn't take it he let's it fall from his mouth and speaks. "All my life I've been stealing from people who had too much or too little, if there's one thing I'd like to do before my death, it wold be to just give back, just once, I'll be happy." After saying his piece he tiredly gets back up with some difficulty and gives her space, he had been in a state where he was afraid of people touching him since it was an every day thing he would get abused because of his sin. "I used to be one of the greatest thieves this city had ever known, not something to be proud of, but when you've been poor all your life, you don't know any other way to live. what I'm getting at, is just one kind act to a stranger could change their lives, no matter how small or how big it may be there's a reason for everything, just like how you found me stranger." he dosn't know why he is telling this person some of his guarded secrets, he just feels obligated to do so.

 

[The Darkling]

She quickly got up and grabbed his arm, "W-Wait!" She didnt realize what this guy had been through nor did she really know, but she did know he was willing to help. "Come with me! I have a little time left and we can eat together! I dont wanna take all your money I just wanted something to eat. Ill help you too so you can eat. please?" She frowned and looked at him sadly, if he wasnt able to eat then he had to be malnourished and she wasnt about to let someone die here.

 

[Axeykins]

"Again. Thank you." He looked at Freyja and returned the happy grin. They were actually pulling it off! The doctors did not look too pleased that they were there that late and definitely because they were sinners too, but there was no way they could deny them help at this point. "And please....she's all I have...if you have to separate us don't let it be for too long." He looked at them with the most pleading eyes he could manage.

 

[Cotten]

In his state he couldn't question why she had such little time and too weary to deny a meal, besides it would be nice to eat something. He hadn't eaten anything in 34 days but had been able to drink water from the tops of the city roofs unfiltered. "Sure. that would be nice."

 

[The Darkling]

The nurse rolled her eyes and led them into a large room with two beds, "Wait here for the doctor, he will be here in a few moments" She left and shut the door finally giving Freyja a moment to breathe, she hugged Lucid carefully as to not hurt either of them. Her smile was relaxed, "See I told you it would work! A loving..injured couple never gets turned down" She winked and let go of his hand sitting on the nearest bed.


Ella smiled and held onto his arm, "Theres a little taco place right around the corner! Do you like tacos?" She was filled with excitement as they made their way back to the fence. She hadnt learned his name she realized but decided to wait for when he answered her other question.

 

[Cotten]

the excited and fast pace the girl was moving at was tiring him out by the time they made it to the lied down fence, "Taco's sounds nice, anything at this point sounds nice." he says trying to sound funny but it comes off as tired and monotone. walking was a little difficult for him, almost like an old man but a tad faster.

 

[The Darkling]

Ella helped him over the fence and the taco stand wasnt but a couple blocks from there. When they finally got there it was practically empty at this time of night, "My name is Ella by the way whats yours?" She looked at him as they sat down at one of their undercover tables and smiled, she had about 10 minutes left.

 

[Axeykins]

The feathers on his wings poofed outwards when she hugged him. Both from the pain that wracked through his chest and from being caught off guard from it. "I'm so glad it did! I was worried for a moment. Mostly after that dirty look the nurse gave us. You'd think she's never seen a pair of sinners before." He joked.

 

[The Darkling]

Freyja laughed, "Sinners alike we are!" The laughing made her wheeze and more blood dripped down her lips and on her face. She wiped at it but it merely smeared and with a tired sigh she leaned back. "I must say..this is a new situation for me..I havent been around another person since...Well since the sin" She thought back to it a darker expression crossed her face but she quickly got rid of it. "I feel like I should at least look nice but I look like a bloody mess" She laughed half heatedly.

 

[Cotten]

"Quinten" he says not thinking about his last name as she guided him to one of the tables, the light exposing his skeleton like face and his ripped clothing. "It's nice to meet you Ella" in the light he could see just how young the girl was and wondered where her parents could be, but then he thought if she was out here alone then they weren't worthy of being parents in the first place. "I'd choose what kind of food, but you seem to have been here before, so what ever you recommend."

 

[The Darkling]

Ella smiled, "Ill just get us something normal..nothing to fancy. Mind if I borrow that money for a moment?" She put her arm out to him palm facing up and the light did show her how skinny he must have been under those clothes. The clothes werent much better either, its not like she was dressed nice in an over sized ratty mens sweater she found but it didnt have many holes and it covered her well.

 

[Cotten]

"Yea... Here" he says as he gives her the money that was between his wrist exposing the The red T that dawned on both of his hands.

 

[Axeykins]

"I think you look just fine." He leaned over and whipped some of the blood away with a smile. Then with a groan, laid on his stomach and let the wings flop lazily to his sides. The left one was definitely broken and stuck out at an odd angle painfully. "Much better than everybody we've seen today whose given us that look of disgust."

 

[The Darkling]

She stared at the T's but didnt say anything as she got up and went to the man in the truck, "Four regulars please.." She handed him the money and he gave her back change. "Anything to drink today Ella?" The man smiled at her and Ella smiled back. The owner was always kind to her, and is food was good and for a good price. "um..I think water will be fine for us" The guy nodded and handed her two bottles of water and she walked back to Quinten handing him his water and putting the change in his pocket. "Oh! here.." She pulled out a straw and opened his water dropping the straw inside.


Freyja watched him flop on his stomach feeling bad his wing took such a beating, "Oh im sure there are many other glorious girls than I out there sinners or no. I am but your simple bar hopping woman" She lie on her back next to him wondering what was taking the doctor so long. Probably talking trash with the nurses if she guessed right.
