Tokeru felt a rumbling in his stomach, not loud enough to make sound, and realized he had not eaten in three days, yet felt as if he had not eaten in an hour.
He remained in place, still clutching himself, wanting to end his life, yet unable to.

James walked to the middle of the bridge and stared out to the bay. Damn it where could Tokeru be... He soon yell"WHERE THE HELL ARE YOU TOKERU!!!!," He felt that would bring him out, but then he remember the car behind him. Damn cars.

{[{ Meredith Emily Jackson }]} 
Eden wasn't exactly walking down the Brooklyn Bridge completely randomly, no, not at all. She was following James' scent, praying that somehow Tokeru was hunting with James and that things were going to be all better with him somehow. She prayed that he would be back to normal and no more suicidal s**t or assaulting other hunters that were actually experienced hunters that'd returned to them. However, above all she just prayed that her love was alright and that he hadn't been harmed by anyone, including himself. If her Angel was hurt by his own hand then she would be absolutely infuriated with him and would have to give him a huge sit down and talk down even though she sucked at doing that. All she could do was jabber on about some pointless thing and say something stupid, perhaps crack a silly joke that'd cause someone to laugh for a moment and their laughter to die a moment later leaving them in total silence only for her to raise a topic again. That was about all that she was useful for and right now that really didn't seem like it was going to get her anywhere or serve her purpose of finding her Angel.
When she reached James, her eye brows arched as she listened to James shouting off of the bridge. Her hyper sensitive hearing had allowed her to hear what he'd said and though she was weak and weary herself, it brought comfort to her that at least one person was searching for her Angel. "Thank-you," Meredith said to James with a soft smile, "for not giving up on him. I think some of the other hunters gave up but you're still out here and that tells me who I can trust to watch my back or at least my Angel's." A warmer less weary smile appeared on her countenance now though she was still obviously weak and forcing herself to function. Every step she took appeared as though it were pure agony and that she was only functioning by sheer force of will. Well, that was the case and she would not stop to rest until her love was found and back within her arms again. She wasn't able to muster the loud voice that she had due to her weakness but she tried to be as loud as she possibly could despite that. "Angel, if you're out there please come home! I'm waiting for you and everyone else needs you, love. If you're needing help or something is proving to be too much we can deal with it together!" She'd cupped her hands around her mouth and the cold wind blew through her orange matted curls.

((Could one of you guys let the other hunters know where Tokeru is? Because to auto-learn that he was at the bridge would be godmodding...))

(( Well since neither Edith nor James know where Tokeru is either, they couldn't exactly send them a message anyhow since they don't know he's there. >.> ))

Tokeru heard his love call to him, and he wanted to call out to her again. Wanted so much to, but he couldn't. He was cursed, and didn't want to hurt anyone. He would eventually die of starvation, and he needed to stay away from all the other hunters until he did.
He walked to the edge of the catwalk, and dove into the water, swimming as deeply as possible before he was even able to be seen by anyone on the bridge. By the time the current carried him in sight, he was too deep for anyone to see him.

Calling out was all that Eden needed since Tokeru's thoughts instantly reacted to it and since he was closeby she was able to pinpoint his thought patterns. She collected his mental image of where he was and his thought out plan was revealed to her just a moment before he realized it himself. Able to act upon that, Eden forced herself to sprint to the side of the bridge where Tokeru was planning to take his plunge and take it with him. She was a little behind him since she'd not been able to react as fast having been channelling his mind for a moment and being a slight bit disoriented but she shook it off as best she could and jumped off the bridge. 'Angel, you're not solving anything by trying to run away from me or anyone else! Come back! We need you! I don't care if you think you're cursed or not and you will not hurt anyone if you just trust yourself not to!' The instant she hit the water, her wounds were screaming at her and a few of the stitches were beginning to unravel but she didn't care about them and only wanted her Angel back, safe in her arms. She allowed the current to carry her but she also swam with it to accelerate herself toward him.

Tokeru had ignored the message his love sent, because he knew if he paid attention to it he would change his mind, so he closed off his mind to everything.
She hit the water, and he hung on at the bottom of the river, breathing the water as easily as air. He dug his hands into the bottom of the river and held on, watching as his lover passed by overhead.

By the time Meredith had realized that her Angel was purposely avoiding her and that he was wanting to be left alone, it was too late for her to turn back against the current anyhow. Eden was known for her pure brute strength but when weakened and up against one of the world's most deadly natural forces of nature she really didn't stand too much of a chance. She was puny compared to the current and even though she did have inhuman cababilities, she was injured, weak and now heart broken. She didn't know what to do and in her moment of freezing up and thinking the current managed to just carry her along farther away, causing her to become more frustrated and more upset. Her love didn't want her to come save him, he wasn't even willing to live anymore and it caused a lot of the spark Edith had possessed before she'd arrived to fade. Instead of really bothering to get out of the current and find shore, she just allowed it to pull and push her along, she was lost to it at the moment.

Tokeru began to pull himself along the bottom of the river, going upwards against the current. He took another look back, and thought. I'm sorry Edith.
He continued to pull himself and eventually arrived at the statue of Liberty.

James was greeted by Edith. He told her that someone had to care and yell at her for not staying at the Haven and resting. But he saw Tokeru dive in the river. Then saw Edith go after him. James watched as he saw Edith come up with no Tokeru in her arms, and he saw the she didn't get her strength back. She was be taken by the river's current, so James dug in the backpack he still had, and pulled out a frag. He droped it down in the river, and then dive in when it set off in the water. He started to swim to Edith with the currents help.

At the moment, Edith was completely lost and the current was dragging her along as though she were its toy or battered blanket that it carried everywhere. She was in her own little world and nothing seemed to exist that was in reality at the moment. Perhaps it was because reality was hurting her too much at the moment or other reasons but whatever it was, she was blank and was just mindlessly allowing the current to drag and pull her as it so pleased. Since she was no longer human, it was not required that she needed to breathe so she was not brought back from her own little world from lack of breath. Shell-shocked was what she was. She didn't know what the hell to do. She'd lost Reno and it'd been her fault and now she was losing Tokeru. All she could do was sit there and pretend as if she were dreaming, hope, pray that she was dreaming. Reality was not something she could or wanted to face right now, it was too harsh and too authentic. She just needed some quiet, some peace and some alternate reality to escape to where she could just be mindless.

James would freestyle and then do the breast stroke. the current was so strong. He was being move in every direction. He thought that Tokeru would help, but He never showed.
James got close to Edith, and reached out to her."COME ON WE STILL HAVE TO SAVE TOKERU!" hE YELLED TO HER.

The vampire didn't even respond to or seemed to have heard what James said and instead just remained drifting downstream. She was completely limp as though she had no mind nor any will to move herself or even respond to James. It was as though she literally were a rag doll since she was completely silent and did not fight the current in the least. The only difference was she was made of a very hard texture and she was a life-sized rag doll so she was easier to spot than such a small toy. However, she was just as lifeless and her arms, legs, neck and everything else were just as loose as a rag doll's. She wasn't able to face reality, not right now. Losing Tokeru was too much, she'd lost enough people that she'd loved. She'd been betrayed by enough people she'd loved. There were just so many things rushing back to her and to stop the pain from entering her she merely went into her state of mindlessness where she was able to block out everything but simply shutting herself down and succumbing to whatever decided to cross her path.

James didn't want to waste time floating down stream, so he swam up to Edith and managed to grab some of her clothes. He pull her close and started the hardest swim of his life to shore.
On the he he started to talk to her." Why are you giving up on the one you love so much? You can save him. It's just that this time you need help, and you have it so don't give up. Please." As he talked he got some water in his mouth. It tasted way to salt, he started to choke on it.
