Asuka wanted to be found as soon as possible, and because she had pointed out to Jenet that she would be waiting around Vanaheim, she thought that she might as well go back to the gate and wait there. After all, that would make it much easier and quicker to find her. She had thought wrong, unfortunately.

Cursing at herself for walking so far from the gate, she grits her teeth in pain with every step she takes. From what she remembered, she was not injured on any of her legs, but her left leg is hurting so bad she is 100% sure she broke something down there. The fact that she is wearing a plug suit rather than normal clothing does not help the situation whatsoever, because she cannot examine her injury to see how bad it actually is.

All kinds of swear words in the three languages of English, Japanese and German were running through her head in jumbles. No, I must keep my head cool. No matter how funny and unbelievable it is, I'm gonna be meeting this Prince and breaking out into swear words at first meeting is not a good first impression at all.

Asuka closes her eyes, trying to think of ways of introducing herself to this Prince so that he would be impressed. Her right foot trips on her left and searing pain courses through her body, releasing a string of German swear words. Gah, forget it. As long as he changes my bandages, he can hate me for all he wants.
