:::Suddenly Cora's attention was drawn to a new presence. The face was familiar:::
Selurnis! :::She ran over to her side::: Tell me what is happening!

He... tried to convince me to help him get rid of The Brink. I'm sure he said other things to me, but I can't really remember. That moment is sort of a big blur to me now. That encounter was pretty damn scary, that much I can re-- ::Nyx almost jumped out of her seat from surprise as the scream suddenly annihilated her train of thought.:: The hell?!
::She looked over to Selurnis, who was on the floor. Blink.:: Oh... s**t.

((I just realized that passing out doesn't really make it easy to RP... sweatdrop sweatdrop sweatdrop ))
She gasped in her sleep, really uneasy and seemingly struggling to wake up. There was something she needed to tell, but she had been really exhausted by something.

:::Cora manages to pull Selurnis' upper body onto her lap. She tries to asses what's happening to her. She didn't see any physical harm, it simply appeared as though she had passed out:::
She looked up at Nyx. I don't think there is anything I can do, without understand what ails her.

She tossed a little, and for a moment of coming in and out of it she seemed to be reaching for something -or someone. The man in the dark cloak by the name of Audyhnnh who was always seen at her side wasn't anywhere in sight this time. She groaned, still trying to wake up.
"Audyhnnh..." she grumbled weakly. "Get...-- Run..."

:::Cora recognized the name:::
Audyhnnh... :::She looked back at Nyx::: The one that name belongs to had been here before. I have only seen him here while she is here. :::Looking back down at the restless Selurnis::: But I suppose there is nothing we can do.
:::Cora feels the pit of her stomach begin to clentch, a nervous reaction. She knows that she is about to fade away. Before she goes, she gently moves Selurnis off her lap, and rests her head gently on the floor, just in time to look up at Nyx before she's completely gone:::

Uh... oh, damn. ::Nyx hopped up out of her seat as Cora faded away, and moved over to sit near Selurnis. Hesitantly, she rested her hand on the girl's shoulder and gave her a very gentle shake in the hopes that she'd come to.:: Wake up...

She mumbled for a little bit more, but the contact seemed to help and she finally appeared to be slumbering soundly -but only for a very brief moment. For just a few seconds she slept, but then suddenly sat up with a start.
"Someone--!" she looked at Nyx, "Please help me," she muttered hastily in a weak voice.

:::Cora fades upon the brink, sitting up straight in her chair, she routinely looks around to see who is there. Seeing no one, she pouts just a bit, then goes to her belt to retrieve her locket. She puts it around her neck, and procedes to the bar for some wine:::

:::Slowly, at one of the tables, a young man's figure fades in to the Brink. He is fairly tall, red headed, and dressed in a sweater and jeans. He has no shoes or socks and he is pressing his fingers into the table. Slowly, he opens his eyes.:::
"....um... Why are there no keys on my piano anymore?"
:::His head lifts and he scans the area questionably:::

*Luke appears. He is strolling, looking like he's hot s**t....like he usually does. Except this time he is wearing a grease-stained apron and a chef's hat.* *He was carrying something, but that has since been left in his world...* Look, Lyle... I don't care WHO wears the pants around here. As long as my name is Lucas Blaize, I'm not saying in this dive any longer than.....
*Blinks*
Oh.
*He brings down his hands.* *He looks around, smirks*
Looks like I'm leaving work a little sooner than I planned....

:::Cora hears a voice not far behind her, she turns her head, with a wide eyed look, to see yet another stranger...a male. She wonders if he's going to throw up. But she shakes her initial thought, puts down her wine glass, and stands up from the bar:::
:::She salutes::: Hail good Citizen. I am First Rank Officer Cora Serenis from the House of El. Please state your name and status.
:::She sees Luke appear, turning her attention away from the stranger momentarily:::
Hello Luke. :::She nods her head toward the new comer::: Don't be impolite. We have company. :::She smiles::

*Luke stops mid-strut*
*quirks an eyebrow at Cora* Oh.... *looks to the newcomer* *He smirks to Cora* Well, excuse me. *says sarcastically to her.*
*He offers his hand to the newcomer* What's up. I'm Luke. *offers a handshake* *Gives Cora a look and then smiles evenly to the new guy* Forgive me for being so impolite.

:::Turning his attention towards the two and taking Luke's hand gingerly:::
Oh...um, hi. Nice to meet you both.
:::Answering Cora's previous question:::
My name is Ben Lockart. I...haven't seen you around this building.... Wherever this building is. Did I fall asleep in the practice room?

*murmurs* Practice room. *Luke shakes his head. He kinda feels sorry for the guy* *Luke's feeling a little tired from work, and he never really was good at the patient explanation thing anyway*
Slim... *winks at Cora* It's your show.
All this politeness is making me thirsty. *looks to Ben* How bout you?
