@misty@ "..." She gritted her teeth, staring deeply at the hummingbird.

It didn't make a move, just glaring directly back at her...
...and then, it slowly began to fade. Agonizingly slowly, its visage was slowly vanishing.
"...I just... want this to stop..."

@misty@ "!" She looked shocked at that, and turned back to Carly. "Carly?"
@jun@ When he vanished, Jun slipped out of his grasp and fell to the ground. "Guh!"

Her expression was hidden from view... but slowly, she looked back at Misty...
@carly2@
...and there, she saw her looking back at her with a crushed expression; looking so vulnerable, as tears were trickling down her cheeks.

@misty@ "...Carly." She rushed up and hugged her close, rubbing her back.

@carly2@
She made no sound, but when she felt herself being hugged, she clutched to Misty, body twitching each time it seemed like she let a sob escape her lips.

@misty@ She silently kept rubbing her back. "It's alright, Carly...the boy is ok...you will be too..."
@jun@ He slowly got up. "..."
The other thugs came out. "W.what was that?"
"That thing...I think I saw it on the news at Neo Domino..."
"Geez guys...what the hell..."
@jun@ "Can it." He said. "...none of you saw nothin'. Got it?"
"But bos..."
@jun@ "Are you talking back to me?"
"N.no sir! Sorry! We didn't see a thing!"
@jun@ "...we're calling this even." He walked off. "This day never happened."
@misty@ "...." She watched him go, but focused on Carly.

@carly2@
She just clutched to Misty still, burying her head against her shoulder as her body shook more.

@misty@ She kept her in her arms until some time has passed, and she rubbed her head. "...how are you now?"

@carly2@
"...glasses..." she murmured as she kept her face buried against Misty's shoulder. "...need my glasses..."

@misty@ "Ah, yes..." She looked around and saw her specs on the ground. She picked them up and held them out. "Here, dear."

@carly2@ Slowly, she fumbled to try and grasp them, and when she did, she slid them on with little problem... ...slowly looking back at Misty. "...why... was I crying, again...?"

@misty@ "...what was that?" She blinked in surprise.

Post by YolkaEd on Jun 24, 2013 22:30:11 GMT -5
She wiped her eyes as best she could. "...I guess I lost really badly, huh? And then I had to get bailed out by you or something..." She looked worriedly at Misty. "...they didn't press too much money out of you, did they?"
|

Post by kelik on Jun 24, 2013 22:33:04 GMT -5
@misty@ She seemed surprised. "...no, everything's fine." Misty said. "They heard Police sirens in the air and scattered."

"...really...? They were chased away?" Carly blinked... and then she smiled. "...oh, now I get it! I was crying because I was so relieved that we were bailed out before I lost us anything, wasn't I?"

@misty@ "..." 'I can't lie about this...but she...hm...' "...that's right, Carly." She nodded. "We're fine...for now."

With a growing smile, she hugged Misty again. "That's great! But... next time, make sure to smack me before I run my mouth off again, alright? I don't think police are gonna show up every time I'm about to lose, you know..." she remarked, mostly jokingly of course.

@misty@ She hugged back. "Ah, right right..." She looked a bit worried. "Well, it's rather late...do you need a ride anywhere?"
|
|
|
Post by YolkaEd on Jun 24, 2013 22:51:58 GMT -5
She breathed out just a bit. "A ride home would be nice... maybe stop by some place to grab a bite to eat..."

@misty@ "Of course." She nodded and took out her cell phone, calling her limo back. She opened the door.

With a small breath, she just tried to collect herself. "...I hope I didn't cause you too much trouble, Misty." she murmured.

@misty@ "It's alright, really." Misty smiled. "I'll be in Neo Domino for some time, perhaps tomorrow, we could do lunch?"

Carly smiled just a bit as she heard that. "...that sounds nice."

@misty@ "Good." She got in, and the limo drove off as they did. 'I'll have to tell her by tomorrow...at the very least, she can relax tonight. It's been rough for both of us...but, she'll have to know soon.'

Slowly, Carly just leant against the limo door and closed her eyes; swiftly falling asleep as fatigue took hold of her... ...but even as she slept, some kind of heart-like beat could be heard, coming from Carly's deck. Almost as if it still lingered... gazing upon Misty...

@misty@ "?" She blinked and looked toward the deck. "...it's has to be the Earthbound...if only I acted sooner..."

...it was inevitable.

@misty@ "!" Her eyes widened in shock. "...that voice..."
|
|
|
Post by YolkaEd on Jun 24, 2013 23:33:02 GMT -5
It lingered just for a moment as an echo... and then, as suddenly as it had come, it faded. And yet Carly was still peacefully slumbering, as if the voice hadn't affected her in the least.
