He looked to her and he smiled just alittle before noding alittle and walking with her slowly and siting donw beside her. he watched her alittle before he looked to his food and he smelt it girning just alittle as he loved the way it smeled before he lifted a spoon and he slide it donw into the soup and he liftred it up and he ate it. he smiled alittle more " it is actualy good " he sead with a node and he looked to her thin forword alittle as he ate slowly thinking just alittle

Souno was floating in blackness, and ingulfed in pain. Suddenly a green light enveloped his mind. Soothing him and easing the pain slowly from the outside in. The tension on his chest slowly relieved itself as the green light slowly brightened and then consumed his vision as his eyes opened.

He was staring at the cieling of the dining hall and a concerned girl sat next to him. I know her... His mind suddenly snapped back to a time in the hospital. Tchai had been there, and so had she. A small smile crossed his face as he looked up at her, "Hi...I suppose I owe you my thanks?" He slowly began to sit up.

Souno smiled, "I'm in the same boat," he said as he extended his hand, "Souno Stanton, what's your name?" He sighed and stood up as he felt a wave of weakness wash over him and he grabbed the edge of a nearby table, "I'm gonna go get some food, do you want anything?"
He noticed how weak she looked and felt a pang of concern.
I hope she's ok....
His mind wandered back to the last moments before his world had gone black.
Tchai...where is he?
Souno's eyes swept the spot where their overturned table lay on its side, Tchai wasn't there.
I'll need to find him, something's up...

Souno smiled and stood back up, slowly rubbing his still tender chest.
"I'm really sorry that you had to risk so much on my behalf," He said as he cocked his head to the side and smiled, "I'll be right back with that tea." He turned around and walked back to the machines.
He swipped his card and simply said, "Coffee, black and some Green Tea."

A black mug of coffee appeared next to a small steaming tea cup on top of a dainty plate. It had a victorian sense about it that made Souno smile, "Oh, it's so cliche..." He picked it up and took it back to Rille and set it down next to her. He inserted one finger into the hot coffee and chilled it slightly before taking a sip and sighing to himself.
"I suppose I have to go do something about that damn brother of mine."
He shook his head, thinking of Tchai. Something had happened to him when he was in that fire, and Souno was going to get to the bottom of it. He needed to resolve that much, even if it took beating his brother to a bloody pulp.

She watched him eat, giggling some. He seemed so fascinated and curious about his soup that she couldn't help find him funny at the time. "You didn't think it would be?" she asked, smiling but shaking her head in the barest amount she could. She put a hand on his shoulder and rubbed it a little, very much entertained by his entertainment with his food. Dropping her hand, she began to consume her soup again, blowing air on it every once in awhile so she wouldn't burn her tongue on it. It was a knowledge she had quickly learned in her childhood. It wasn't a difficult soup to consume, even with some of the worse, throat constricting illnesses, and she never seemed to tire of it. So, naturally, she was quite at ease with her own choice.

Rille nodded. "Well, that clears things up a bit," she said softly. "So, I only have one more question. What are you doing sitting here? If it were my brother, I'd be going after him already." Not that I have a brother...and from what I've seen, I think that's not a bad thing. Are all brothers like this? Between Halcón and this guy, I'm starting to wonder. She wrapped her fingers around her cup of tea, and took another sip. The tea had cooled enough that she could drink it without burning herself, and she smiled as the warmth started to ease her headache. She sat up a little straighter in her chair. Much, much better. Maybe I should give up on healing and just give tea to everyone.

"You don't..." Rille began, then stopped when he started to walk away. Oh well...that was interesting. I hope those two are okay. She sighed softly, leaning back in her chair and closing her eyes.
Halcón decided it was about time he caught up with Rille again. Maybe this time she'll listen to me. He had followed her to the dining hall, and now he went inside. He spotted Rille almost immediately, and frowned. Walking quickly over to her, he put one hand on her shoulder and said "Rille, are you alright? You look half dead."
Rille's eyes flew open, and she jumped backwards in her chair. "I'm going to be all the way dead if you scare me like that again." Oh god. I'm exhausted and I do not feel good. I don't need this now.
Halcón looked down at the ground, pretending to be appoligetic. "I'm sorry. I thought you heard me come up." He sat next to her, staring at her piercingly. "What happened to you?"
Rille sighed. "Too much to explain right now. Go away, Halcón, I'm exhausted."

Halcón ignored Rille's protest, and said urgently "Look, Rille. I'm sorry you're tired, but I need your help. Dad's decided that if I can't convince Ananda to come home, he's going to send some hit-man friend of his to..." He trailed off, looking at Rille.
Rille was clenching her fists. "What part of 'I'm not going to get involved in this' didn't you get last night?" Her voice was tight and angry. "I'm sure Ananda can take care of herself. I'm not going to talk to her for you, and I'm not going to get in the middle of a fight over her. Now, would you please go away?"
Halcón shook his head firmly. "No. Look...would you at least ask her to listen to me? She won't even talk to me," he said sadly. "Rille, this is my baby sister we're talking about. I'm just trying to protect her."
Rille groaned. "Nan isn't a baby anymore. Seen her fight lately?" She turned away from him, and noticed that Souno had come back. Oh...good, he found his brother. Poor guy doesn't look so good, though. Well, if he'd wanted my help, he'd ask. Still...maybe I'll go over there once I get rid of my darling cousin.
