Kyley was not sure why everyone seemed to be calling her pretty though she accepted the compliment with a happy giggle and a hastily mumbled thanks. "My name," Kyley answered for Tokeru, "is Kyley. And that tiger is SavageBounce, I named him the second half. This kitty is called Midnight. She's my Auntie Eden's kitty and Auntie Eden let me play with her and take care of her. And this is Crowman. He got his Halloween costume glued to him and now it's stuck."

Tokeru looked at jenny, pleading in his eyes. She looked back at him and smiled. As if to say. "Sorry Tokeru, you're on your own now"
Jenny bowed to Kyley. "Hello Kyley, it's nice to meet you. My name is Jenny. Would you like something to eat? We have cake, soup, pizza, spaghetti...."
Jenny continued to list the menu slowly, while Tokeru just shook his head as she passed over all the high sugar foods.

Kyley smiled and waved, "Hi Jenny." She then listened to the menu selection though she tuned out until she heard cake and magically tuned back in to hear the word. "Cake!" she shouted immediately, "I'd like cake please!"

Jenny smiled, and asked Tokeru what he wanted. "The biggest steak you got please, and some aspirin, something tells me i'm gonna need it."
jenny smiled, placed her hand on his shoulder in understanding, and walked off to get their orders.

"Stop using so many grown-up words! I don't know what you mean! What is aspirin?" She looked at Tokeru innocently, wondering what he had just said. "Is something wrong Crowman?" she asked him with concern, getting out of her seat and travelling over to his side of the table to check on him.

Tokeru smiled at her reasurringly. "No, i just think i'm gonna be getting a headache soon. Don't ask why, it's an adult thing. Atleast, i think it is, might be a teenager thing too. Anyway, don't worry about it, just enjoy your cake when it comes."
Jenny came back in a few seconds with the cake, then left to get the steak. It took a few minutes before the steak was finished, but when it was, Tokeru was almost drooling over it.

Bridget was walking down a corridor thinking about what Rogue had said to her and her estrangement from humanity. The realization that in truth she was a stone cold killer with none of the human qualitys she saw in others.
Bridget believed she was still bing experimented on by Section six and see what would happen to her with thier drugs and recombiant DNA introduced into her system. All she knew for sure that she was slipping away from the very people she protected.
Bridget looked for Sanchez in his room and found out he wasn't there, so she went to her rooms and went to sleep and dreamed dark thoughts (nightmares) as she tossed and turned until she woke eight hours later covered in sweat.

Kyley looked concerned for Tokeru and she pushed her plate of cake over to him innocently. "Here," she said with a regretful smile, "the cake will make your headache feel better. Mama made me cake for me when I had a headache and it made me happy. Headaches hurt so when you get it just remember you ate the cake and you'll feel better." She got out of her seat to go and give him a hug. "Mama gave me one of these too." She then stood up on Tokeru's seat and kissed him on top of the forehead, "And that too." She smiled and hugged him again.

Early afternoon had come and Bridget was in the Dojo working out with an intensity she seldom felt. She would train until she was exhausted; which meant that it would take awhile. It was 6pm when she stopped and went to the sauna and stayed in there for a hour then emerged and went to her room for a shower and a change of clothes.
She wanted to be alone and Sanchez had seen this mood before and knew it was better to leave Bridget alone.... she would snap out of it on her own until then he would steer clear of her.
When the sun went down Bridget picked up her extra clips for her Glocks and put on her 'Duster' and Stetson hat and went towards the elevator. She had seen Tokeru and Edith on her way to the elevator but avoided them as she made her way thru the corridors. She pressed the button and the doors opened a few minutes later Bridget was out the door of the Chapter House and on the hunt.

Bridget staggered to the front door and passed the security and entered the house...still coughing up light forthy red blood; it meant that at least one wound had pierced a lung. She staggered to the infirmary where she put down the head in her blood soaked 'Duster' ...she would have to buy another.
The doctor examined Bridget and inserted a chest tube to re-inflate the lung and stablized her with blood tansfusions and suturing then bandaging the wounds. Bridget wasn't surprised when Sanchez stopped by, all Bridget could do was faintly smile and squeeze His hand. She asked Sanchez to take the 'Duster to her room and he agreed...that was the last thing she said before the sedatives kicked in and she fell asleep.

Tokeru laughed as Kylery offered him her piece of cake. "No thank you Kyley, my steak will do the job for me. I'm a bigger fan of steaks for headaches, because it rhymes."
Tokeru lightly hugged her back as she hugged him, not sure why this child was hugging him, then he remembered reno.
"I will be back in one second, I need to make a phone call."
Tokeru walked just outside the cafeteria, and phoned security. "I want you to ban access to all non-stalkers. No one is allowed inside the chapterhouse except for shadow stalkers."
He then hung up, confident that his men put in effect the security measures.
He dialed another number, bridget's number this time.
"Bridget. I am afraid to tell you that I have forbidden access no all non-shadow stalkers at this time. If you wish you may join us on a temporary basis however. If you do, tell me quickly so that our security systems do not fire on you."

Tokeru was answered by Sanchez.."Bridget is in the infirmary with serious wounds you'll need to go there and ask her...as for me I'll join the Stalkers temporarly." "I can't speak for her." said Sanchez.
Meanwhile the doctor was amazed because the light wounds were almost totally healed. The serious wounds showed sign of healing as she changed the dressings. There was minor bleeding around the chest wound but the doctor decided to leave one more day. She decided to keep Bridget sedated so she would heal faster.

For amoment Bridget came to long enough for her to hear what Tokeru had told her. She stared to sit up...she was a little woozy but good after that. She looled at Sanchez "how long do I have to get out of here before they slaughter me(she laughed a little but winced at the pain it caused her)"
She pulled the IV out and turn it off..the 6th bag of blood was half way done. "Guess I better get my stuff and get going." Bridget looked at Sanchez and knew what was going to happen and she couldn't fault him it was his choice to make.
The Doctor came in and told Bridget she had to lay back down or she most surely tear the stitches out. "I'll be extra careful doc. just give me some extra bandages so I can change the wounds when needed and some antibiotics to keep me from becoming ill." The doc argued with Bridget for ten more minutes but knew he had lost the argument; so he left to get her some medical supplies. He came back with the supplies Bridget would be needing.. she took them and slowly walked out of the infirmary and took the elevator to the second level.
Bridget slowly made it to her room and began packing her gear..Sanchez had come and helped her in her packing and when it was thru he escorted her to the front of the Chapter House and hailed a taxi and loaded the gear in the trunk. "I'll be all right just take care of yourself and we'll see each other again." With that she got into the cab and it drove off leaving Sanchez at the front of the Chapter House. The cabbie took Bridget to the Residential District and helped get her gear out off the trunk then drove off with a fifty dollar tip.

If you do, tell me quickly so that our security systems do not fire on you." Kyley frowned as Tokeru left her all alone but was glad he decided that he had liked steak better. How could he like steak better? Everyone knew that cake was better and it rhymed with steak and headache, did it not? She soon smiled, taking her fork and beginning to work at the cake, making a terrible mess of cake crumbs on her pants, and iceing sticking around the sides of her mouth.

Tokeru phone the security agents, and told them about Sanchez. They said it would be awhile, perhaps half an hour. Tokeru told them to work as fast as possible, then restrict access to the chapterhouse by all non-shadow stalkers.
He returned to the cafeteria, where Kyley was eating her cake, without another word. He sat down in the booth, and started eating his steak.
