Walking into the door way, Zetsuei walked over to where Maki had been laying before and laid her down and propped her head up with a pillow then pulled the blankets to her chin.
"Just rest Maki, we will see how you are doing in a couple of days and determine if we should leave or not"
Sitting back down in the same chair where he sat before Zetsuei wondered if Fira was going to follow them up here.

Turning back into her human form, Fira sat on the ground as she watched the group go back to the room. Then turned to her arm as she made sure the makeshift split Maki had made for her earlier was still sturty. "I think I better lay off flying for a few days, so I don't hurt my arm again," She told her self before standing up and headed into the room. She quietly slipped in and stepped to the side of the doorway before asking with a slightly tilted head, "Is she going to be alright?"

Looking at Fira as she enetred the room and spoke he smiled at her
"Yes, she will be fine. She just needs to rest while her body produces more red blood cells. If it calls for it we will call a nurse to do a blood transfusion, but I dont think that will be neccesary"
Noticing her arm, he looked at the homemade splint.
"Is your arm alright Fira? You can rest in the other bed if you want to"

"That's good," Fira put simply then glanced down at the splint and shrugged, "No, I'll be fine. I think I just twisted it, that's all." Looking up at Zetsuei she had ask, "How do you know my name when I don't even know yours?"

"Oh yeah sorry I havent introduced my name earlier. My name is Zetsuei, my fathers name was Greed. He fought in the battle against Dark Tail. He died in the battle after he unleashed a massive attack which stripped Dark Tail of his powers for a while. Which enabled the others to put thier plans into action. He spirit found its way back to our home and attached itself to a book which I found when I was revived and I was given his memories. That is how I know your name."

"Oh, so it was your father at the battle. That would explain why you seemed to trigger some of my memory." Fira started to think back to that day, "I never took any part in the battle, I only watched what happened. Yet, for some reason I have a very vague memory of it."
Suddenly fire form in Fira's hand then quickly disappated leaving her sketchbook behind. She flipped it open, and started to go through the number of pages with it. The drawings in the begining of the book where scene from thousands of years ago that she had drawn. Finally she stopped at one of the few last pages that where added to the book and looked at it for a moment. The piture was a scene from the begining of the battle that she had drawn a few days after that terrible day. Just about everyone who fought in the battle was in it, and it seemed to remind her of everyone who was there. "Now, I remeber," She said in a mornful tone as she turned the book around to show him the drawing, yet for some reason held it almost protectively.

As Maki rested on the bed she looked around for Shinja before closing her eyes. Worried about him she gave the room a once over and closed her eyes. She was weak, her side throbbed again but it wasn't bleeding. **************************************************** In her dream state she finds herself standing in the darkness. The sounds of an infant crying echoed throughout the room. As if in instinct she looked around the room and ran as she followed the sound.

"Yes, that was my father. Sadly though he didnt make it through it. "
Looking at the book he saw that the sketch was very detailed and done to perfection.
"That is a very good sketch you have there Fira, was it hard to draw that as you thought of the battle and all that fell that day?"

Fira turned the sketchbook back around as she continued to look at the piture, "I know, and I'm sorry he didn't make it." Then she closed the book and ignighted it, leaving nothing in her hand as she stored it within her magic once again. "Thank you, and acctually, yes," she finally replied and looked up at Maki, "It took me about a week after the battle before I could even pick up a pencil to start the drawing."

Shinja, who had been silent for long enough, stood up from his chair in the hospital room. "Zetsuei, we need to leave this place as soon as possible. Maki needs true healing...not these poor excuses of doctors at this hospital. Her wound...our wounds...are not normal wounds, meaning that normal treatment will do nothing but slow the process of it killing us."
Realizing he was breaking his usual calm state, Shinja took a deep breath along with a swig of his refilled liquor bottle. "Look...I think we should find whoever else is on this continent and leave." He then turned to Fira. "Fira...do you know of any others who are here in Arvardia that participated in the battle against Darktail?" Though unaware of who the person was, Shinja had a gut feeling that somebody other than Fira that did battle against Darktail was in the massive castle's perimeter.

"I know Shinja, the doctor told me we need to find a poweful whitemage to cure your aliments. Nothing besides that will cure it. I have the flask which contains Maki's potion to slow it down. Just let me know when you want to leave and I will be ready"

Fira just shook her head as she looked at Shinja listening to the situation they where in, "No, I've only been here for a few hours. I haven't even had enough time to look around the town."

Running through the darkness following the echoes of the child she thought she could hear Shinja's voice. "Shinja?" but her voice echoed in the darkness. The crying got louder. "I want to wake up and go home." Maki covered her ears and sat down before screaming in the darkness. "WHERE ARE YOU?! SHOW ME WHERE YOU ARE AND I'LL COMFORT YOU!" As Maki's voice echoed back a light flickered and nearby rocked a cradle, as she approached it she could see a small infant child crying, face was bright red as if it had been crying for hours. "Shhhhhhh. I didn't mean to scream....shhhhhhh. Hush little baby," Maki cooed as she lifted the infant from the cradle and cradled it in her arms rocking back and forth til it stopped crying."

Shinja winced. "Alright...you two stay here and watch over Maki. I'll conduct a quick search for anyone else that was in the battle." He adjusted his coat and swung the Kusanagi sword into its sheath on his back. "I'll be back soon. And Zetsuei..." Shinja looked at Zetsuei with a caring look on his face. "...protect her."
With that, Shinja quickly walked out of the hospital.

Nodding his head he watched as Shinja walked out of the room as he quietly said
"You know I will, and even with my own life"
