Someone Save Me If You Will [Completed]

[nun-with-guns.livejournal.com]

Characters: Rosette Christopher, whoever else wishes to join
Content: Rosette is dropped off after the experiments and is in a very bad way. Somebody please come save her?
Setting: Joutenheim Gate
Time: Afternoon
Warnings: None so far.

Rosette had only a vague awareness that she'd been moved. Everything else had been drowned out in the numbness that had taken hold of her body. Feeling the warm sun, a stark contrast to...to wherever it was she had been, on her skin, she finally managed to open her eyes a crack. Ground. She'd been dropped in the middle of the street.

She tried to reach out to the pairs of boots passing her by, to call for help, to do something to draw attention to her plight. It was no use - the words froze in her throat, and her body refused to respond to anything she tried to do.

So she lay there numb, trapped in a body to which she no longer had any connection and praying for somebody, anybody, to stop and help her.

Rosette could feel Chrno's change - she was connected to him, after all, and barring that she was nearly on top of him. She clung to him even as he changed, refusing to let him go now that she finally had him back. She had at least begun to calm down, though, enough to hear the Doctor's suggestion of a hotel room.

...a hotel. A bed. A bath. Someplace safe.

She felt Chrno lift her. Any other time, she would have insisted he put her down, that she could walk on her own. Today, however, she knew she barely had the strength to continue to hold onto his shirt and stay awake. There was no way she'd be able to walk on her own. She settled in Chrno's arms and simply tried to stay awake.
