Delilah stood up and stumbled backwards, sinking to her knees a few feet away. "I-I didn't know it was you, I'm so sorry, oh god, Serenity," she whimpered. "God, what have I done?" She'd broken the one person she never wanted to hurt - had fought her twice - and now that she thought about it, the likelihood was that it was someone on her side who had left her girl in the broken state she'd been in.

Shaky.
That basically described the smaller white haired girl. She was shaking as she pushed herself up, dizzy as her blood rushed back to normal places a hand folded over that place Delilah had pushed into her. Swallowing hard, Serenity attempted to get to her feet, stumbling and just ended up falling over again, onto her a** and just whimpered.
Her body was once more bruised, and now....
"Y..You're whatever.. he was... that... red haired man. The one that put me in the hospital." She shuddered at the memory and just laid back down, on her side, staring at the other woman. "I don't like this.."

Delilah found herself, automatically, standing up again and moving back over to Serenity, gathering her girlfriend into her arms and choking back a sob. "Y-yeah, I guess...I guess I am. I have been for a while." A longer while than she liked to admit. "You know there's only two ways this ends, right?" With her abandoning Chaos or Serenity turning her back on Order. The former was...borderline unacceptable. As her real family had crumbled, she had found solace and comfort with her comrades.
Well, there was a third way, she supposed, where one of them died - but that was totally unacceptable.

"How am I supposed to know anything," she started, a faint whisper, "when no one's explained anything to me?" She didn't know if she wanted to be here, in Lila's arms, but .... it was comforting. Lila was familiar and...
And what? Despite what had just happened, despite realizing this was the second time hey'd fought... She should hate Lila for being on the bad side and trying to kill her, and nearly doing it, she didn't have the heart or strength to pull away. After all, Lila was just doing what she was supposed to do, what she was ordered, wasn't she? Kill senshi. "So tell me how this ends.."

Lila sighed and dropped her face onto Serenity's shoulder. "One of us is gonna have to change," she said, and for a brief moment she tried to be light, but it fell flat - she'd just nearly murdered her girlfriend. Her hands reached up to brush though her girlfriend's hair, gently.
"I don't...want to purify. I really don't. I don't want to forget, and I know that'll happen...just like if you came into the Negaverse and I can't lose someone that way again."

Change? She sighed softly at that and winced. Okay, sighing and breathing deep hurt thanks to the whole hand in chest thing, not to mention she was sure she had a couple of cracked ribs or something from being pummeled and having a foot in her chest.
"...What.. about the other senshi I met..? They were darker... Can't.. really remember their names at the moment, but.." Serenity trailed off, face pushing into Lila's chest. Sleeping seemed good right now. That would be a change. From pain to not pain.

Delilah blinked, and then he face lit up. "Yes, of course - the Dark Mirror! We - we have to find a mirror, or something, I'll see if I can call Leto, I'm sure they'll take you." They had to, because while she'd love to have Serenity at her side in the Negaverse, she couldn't risk her girlfriend forgetting who she was. That was a pain she couldn't accept, not again.
"But only if you're sure. You'll be...you'll be giving up everything. Your family, your identity, and you'll remember it all..."

"....I'll.. Mom and.. They'll ..." She frowned at that and thought a bit, brows knitting. She had to do this, otherwise she forgot everything, it sounded like. Or Serenity could die. That was an option. Logically it wasn't, but realistically it was there. "..You could tell them I went off somewhere," she whispered, fighting the sleep that was threatening her. No, she had to stay awake for this! This was a very important talk she was having with Lila and they had things to figure out.
"....Would... you do that?" She wanted to ask if they could stay together, but honestly? She'd need time to process what had just happened, what will happen, and just everything. "I talked... to a few of them and they seem better than what I am. ...I think I do want to do this.."

"You could just...go missing. Like...like my sister, she was one of you, an Order Senshi, but she chose to come to the Negaverse." And abandoned her family and forgot all about them, but after the hell she'd seen this war be, she couldn't hate Cait - Clary, now - too much.
"Only if you're sure, baby, I don't want to do this if there's even a chance you'd regret it afterwards." She didn't want Serenity to hate her, damn it all.

Go missing. Break her parents hearts... Her brows knit at that and she nodded. That seemed like a good way to go about things. Her job, her friends... She'd have to have a new name. This was getting really complicated really fast, but it was better than forgetting.
"...I"m sure." She would probably regret it later on, but it was the only option for her.

Delilah nodded, standing up and pulling Serenity with her. "Alright, let's...let's go get us a mirror and summon up an amazon princess, yeah?" She said, and then, once again trying to lighten the mood - "You'll look good in black, I bet."

"Practically... already wearing black in my other for anyway." Getting up with help was easier, and she wasn't quite as dizzy. Swallowing and leaning against the taller, Serenity motioned her to go on. "We've... got to have a long talk after this." There was definite weight behind her words. How she was going to talk about this was beyond her, it wasn't a normal conversation, but hey. Maybe things could be alright between them as long as Lila promised to not try to kill her again.

"Yeah, I...we're definitely gonna need to talk," Delilah acknowledged, swallowing. "We'll have to talk a lot." Serenity had seen her at her worst, her most frightening, her most, well...kinda evil. "Please don't hate me."

"Mn..." Was all she said, leaning against her girlfriend rather heavily. Girlfriend. Yeah, that still felt right. She kissed Lila's arm as they moved and just nodded. "Take me to the leader, or... whatever."
