"Nothing is lost...you are here." Kamariya held her brother tightly. "You are here and there is hope...these men are not stronger than you two."

[Uke]

"He doesn't even feel it," Rathi whispered. "He can't feel our connection... I think that the seperate half of him feels it. He protected me from Luda... Luda was going to kill me, Ka."

[Mint]

"He couldn't have." Kamariya held her brother's face in her hands. "That is why you are alive."

[Uke]

"I'm alive because Glace feels our connection," Rathi whispered, frowning. "But Ryou..."

[Mint]

"Ryou?" Kamariya blinked.

[Uke]

"He was hurt, like I said," Rathi breathed, tears threatening to come up again. "You remember Ryou... he taught us English when we were younger."

[Mint]

"Yes, I do...how hurt Ra-Ra?" Kamariya asked.

[Uke]

Rathi just burried his face into her shoulder with a weak sob.

[Mint]

"Ra-Ra..." Kamariya hugged her brother tightly- petting his hair.

"I've done what I can," Neko whispered as he finished stitching up the wound, before rising his hand in the blood-stained water. "Time is the only thing that will tell, now..."

He looked blank - empty. Like he wasn't able to feel anything.

[Mint]

"...He's sleeping...he's still breathing Neko." Denum assured.

[Uke]

With a small nod, Neko got up and moved out of the room.

He rinsed his tools off in the sink and poured the blood he had pulled from Ryou's lungs down, his face still solem.

He then set the tools into some boiling fresh water to sterilize them.

[Mint]

"...Neko?" Denum called- having followed the man.

[Uke]

Looking up, Neko gave him a small nod, before he turned back to look down at the boiling water.

[Mint]

Denum stood in the doorway a moment before sighing and walking back to rejoin LiSen and Shotaro.

[Uke]

LiSen quickly looked up while Shotaro blurted, "Is everything okay!?"
