"Were you really that weak, Rubedo? That's not the Rubedo I know." She soft, loving voice comes. Jr. can almost feel her hands, holding his shoulders gently, lending support. "Get up, Rubedo. There are people waiting for you. Don't let them down now." Her invisible arms wrap around the crying boy. "Remember... remember the promise that you made me? Well... you have a sister too, don't you?

Sakura's soothing presense made Jr. feel more at ease. And then it finally hit him. She was right. "Yeah. You're right. There are still people that I can protect." Jr. said as he looked up at Sakura's shining face. "Sakura... thanks." He rested his head on Sakura's shoulder and passed out.

"That's...the Rubedo I loved..." She places a kiss on his brow, and fades away. When he wakes up, Jr. is in a bed, with a very worried MOMO and chaos watching over him. "Jr., you're awake!" the pink-haired Realian chirrups happily. chaos smiles, although something is botheriung him still. "Is... is it over, then?"

Jr. wakes up slowly... his head still groggy from just waking up. "Where am I?" he yawned, "Why are all of you here?" He suddenly remembered everything that had happened earlier with Albedo. Albedo was dead... this thought weighed heavily upon his mind. But he remembered Sakura's words and didn't feel quite so sad about it anymore.

"Jr... You need to go to Alka. She won't even talk to Gaignun much anymore. She just sits in a corner, not moving..." chaos looks away, troubled. "Please... she needs you now." chaos places a hand on his friend's shoulder. "You've been through a lot, but you still need to help her."

"I know." Jr. said. He stretched his arms out and yawned again. He got up and looked over at MOMO. He knew that he had worried her. "I'm sorry for worrying all of you." he said looking at MOMO.

"I was worried... But I knew you could take care of yourself. You're a strong person Jr." MOMO says, smiling. "Alka's in the room across the hall... what's wrong with her Jr.?"
If Jr. goes to investigate Alka, she is sitting in a corner, hugging her legs to her chest and crying softly. It's the same position that she was in the day she lost her voice, and she has the same sad, terrified look on her face.

((Aww. I was hoping Jr. would get a hug... oh well.)) "She probably knows what happened while I was out there in Asher." Jr. responded sadly. He didn't know what he was going to say to Alka when he went out there.

MOMO gives Jr. a quick hug, blushing a bit as she does so. "She seemed so sad, Jr. It almost made me cry. I'm sure she'll be happier once she finds out you're OK." chaos nods. "Right."

((Yay thank you for the hug smile )) "Ok. I'll go see her now." Jr. said. He left the room and saw Alka in the corner. It reminded him of when she had lost her voice and had become so depressed. He still wasn't sure what to say to her. He walked over to her and simply put his hand on her shoulder.

Alka shivers once, then grabs her older brother around the waist, almost knocking him down. She buries her face into his shoulder, sobbing loudly. Unintelligable cries fill the room. She clings desperately to him, afraid that he'll leave and never come back. She cries for a very long time, eventually calming down to sniffles and hiccups. Never does she let go of her brother.

Jr. jumped a little when she first hugged him because it surprised him. He looked down at her and held her close to him. I apologize for lying to you, but I had to go. Jr. said to Alka through the link.

J-just d-don't... l-leave m-me alone... I... th-thought you d-didn't want me... anymore... She presses herself close her brother, her bones distinct in some places. She was wearing a simple teeshirt and pants, that hung on her limply. Am I... a b-burden on you and Nigredo? I-I'm sorry...

I never thought of you as a burden. Jr. spoke softly, I'll always want you. I didn't want Albedo to hurt you or anyone else I cared about anymore. That's why I had to go to him.

Is...he at peace, mow? she asks quietly. A heavy cough racks her thin body, and she leans on her brother. I feel so cold... Alka tries to stop shaking, for her brother's sake. She didn't want him to worry, even tough she might have been very ill. M-may I... have something to eat? She is clearly hungry, again.
