Kaz took the opportunity that she had and ported herself next to Jack. Instead of beside him as she had intended she landed in his arms, blushing a little she apologized and sat next to him.
Looking to the doc she asked him, "How is she holding out? How much more did you have to do? "
Jack was slightly shocked as his arms were now holding Kaz, but he just smiled and set her gently down. As Kaz asked her questions he noticed that Nyma was fighting to sleep as her body needed.
Fumbling around in his hip pouch he pulled out a wooden flute. He went beside her bed and sat down crossing his legs in a lotus position. Closing his eyes he took a few deep breaths and raised the flute to his lips and started playing. He started with a lullaby he remembered his mother humming to him at night or when he was sick.

“She’s healing, if that’s what you mean. She just refuses to stay laying down. Her body needs rest. I suggest she sleeps, but a sedative might be the only way. I don’t know if she will sleep or not.” Rage would reach into his pocket pulling out a needle full of sedatives as he would put it into Nyma’s IV. He knew probably he’d be chewed out later, but it was the only thing he could suggest with Nyma fighting sleep.
Nyma continued to fight sleep and continued to try to take the oxygen mask from the respirator off her lips, which Rage only put back on. She eventually had given up fighting with the doctor. Her eyes eventually began to close because of the medicine given to her as she heard the music. It was soothing even after being given a sedative. She was unsure of what to do as she laid there.
Solzeni rolled her eyes as she fired a warning shot at Amos. She’d not let him off so easily. Unlike Laurell, she fired warning shots as she tapped her gun against her head. Her eyes would begin to glow as she looked back at Nyma. Her body would turn to attend to the woman who now fell asleep. “Keep that man out of here at all costs. I don’t care his reasons for wanting near this woman. He’s not allowed near her. Put a bullet in his legs, to keep him out if you need to.”

Kaz felt Nyma's unsureness and spoke aloud and mentally to her. "Worry not, you are in good hands. Your body needs sleep now. Just relax and rest, you will be protected."
She looked at Jack and sat beside him in a similar position, half tempted to pull out her joyeuse. Listening more she nodded her head and went on and pulled it out. Waiting a moment to start in at the right moment and make certain she got the notes right. Her ears pricked forwards, yes she knew this song, she possibly knew all of Jack's songs seeing as he played them for her quite often.
Soon the soft sounds were joining with Jack's flute, somewhat forcing the air to relax and calm around them and Nyma.
((The joyeous is an instrument much similar to the harp in style but much smaller.))

Doc Persona "Don't worry your pretty little head over such concerns." Lance said as he ruffled her hair with his hand. His hand was hard. The artificial skin that covered his hand did not help much when it came to softness. "So What are you planning on doing now that you have an escort?"

"You poor girl." Lance said as he nodded. "Okay then I know a diner around here called Night Owls that is open late. Why don't we step away from here and I'll get you some hot cocoa and something to eat. How does that sound?"

Laurell only glared at the man now even more pissed. And when she looked at the one restraining him her eyes said as much. "Shut up." she said coldly to them both. Giving Zeni a nod she laughed and said bluntly, "Shoulda shot him in the balls, he'd remember that better." Stepping up to Amos she looked up at him and said to her friend, "Zeni do what needs to to keep him away from her." Having heard the music from in where the injured woman was she put the outsiders ammong them onna priority list, with Amos being the first, the cats the next, unless they got out of hand. "And if those others try anything stupid, kill them too." she added to her vampire friend.
Her eyes seemed to show some pleasure as she added, "I'll deal with him now... my way." She laughed coldly as she lowered her AK47 to Amos's groin and smiled her sweetest but dealy smile saying, "Now s**t head, you're gonna answer my questions and you're gonna do so with no bullshit..." She paused pressign her gun into him and finished, "Unless you'd prefer being returned to your family a body part short... You're name s**t head?"

Solzeni would take her gun and purposely put it to the two cats in the room. This way she could keep a close eye of them. Her heart unlike Laurell’s was a little darker. Her attitude was a completely flipped coin of a attention as she merely stood there. “If either of you make a false move to hurt that woman, I’ll put a bullet in both of your heads am I clear? Unlike Laurell, I will warn first but I’ll shoot you to make sure you die on the spot.” Solzeni had a determination in her voice that meant business.
Nyma continued to sleep until she awoke screaming. It sounded like she was having a nightmare about something. It wasn’t much, but a second feather of wind had appeared going into her other wing. She was slowly but surely gathering the feathers of legend that had already been gathered earlier to her wings. She needed two of each feather to have access to their powers.
Rage would put his hand to Nyma’s forehead as he would shake his head. He couldn’t give her anymore sedatives or medicine to help her sleep. He knew anymore would likely kill her. “Child, try to rest. Your body is in chaos right now and the more you fight rest. The less likely you will get well.”

Amos resisted the urge to scoff at the notion of returning to his family. He knew all to well that they would never let him come back. Remembering the events of the eve of his discharge was enough to stop his earlier smart-alec behaviour. Amos' face turned serious as he looked Laurell square in the eye, saying, "Amos Andrews." No more, no less. The former soldier was back to his normal self.

Kaz flicked an ear at Solzeni. She had no intentions of harming Nyma, "If I wanted to hurt her why on this planet would I have GIVEN her part of my own life force to save her at the hospital?" Was all she asked, not missing a note on her joyeous.
Until she saw the feather enter her wing. Grabbing at her own wing this one hurt unlike the last which only numbed her wing. was it teh proximity to Nyma that she was? "Blast it, those things need to leave her be! It is teh feathers, did you not see it?" Kaz questioned them. "She had one enter her earlier too. I can feel them enter her and can feel a fraction of what she does. Not nearly as bad as she is now."
Looking to Solzeni, " I must try to help her, but I can not have my head shot at for attempting it." was all she said with a note of urgency to her voice.

Laurells eyes saw the change in his body language as she mentioned his family. She nodded her head letting that fact sit at the back of her mind for later use with the man. Seeing his demeanor go from smart assed to now serious, but short and to teh point she let that rest in the back of her mind as well, her mind thinking "military." She nodded her head and asked jsut as coldly as before never letting her gun move from his groin, "How did you get in here and why?" With a glance at another gang member she coldly snapped to the man, "I wanna background check on his name now."

Solzeni was skeptical at first before crossing her arms over her chest. “I already knew this much, but you cannot stop the feathers from entering her body. She is the angel of legends. Those feathers are seeking her out and she is unconsciously seeking them as well.” Solzeni would say this simply while looking over Nyma whom was still whimpering in pain. Solzeni would holster her gun before walking over to the woman. She’d place her hand on the woman’s cheek to soothe the woman.
Nyma would flinch slightly at the cold touch of Solzeni’s hand but soon calmed down feeling that she would not get hurt at all. She didn’t find that Solzeni was out to hurt her. She was only trying to help. Nyma started closing her eyes again as she began to rest once more.
“Good she sleeps again, let us hope she remains this way. I must check on other patients. I shall return in fifteen minutes.”

"I arrived before your guards were stationed," replied Amos without hesitation. "From there, it was a matter of keeping to the wall. As for my reason, I came here because of that angel. She reminded me of someone I lost long ago, and I want to ensure that she gets the chance at life that the princess did not." He answered plainly and honestly, since he had nothing to hide from Laurell.

Skog jumped at the sound of gunshots. He ran through the hallways, in the direction he had thought he'd heard the gunshots from earlier. The door hit him as a doctor walked out of a room. He immediately drew an arrow and pointed it at the doctor's throat. "Someone with an angel's power. There is someone like that in this place, correct?" He growled his question at Rage.
((Usually, people can't understand Skog. He's supposed to talk in a sort of 'foreign' language.))

Rage would just stand there and shrug. “Sorry sonny, that angel is indisposed right now. I don’t suggest she be disturbed by anyone including you. She must heal. Her body is in chaos right now and if you dare disturb my patient. Some people inside that room might likely kill you for killing me. Now if you excuse me, I have a patient to attend to before she suffers to too much pain once more. If you dare get in my way, she’ll suffer not me.” Rage would turn away from the arrow and away from Skog clearly not afraid of the man. He’d then make his way back into the room. He’d walk over to Nyma and check on her. He’d notice her condition had improved but she was under considerable pain, “Too many feathers have been absorbed in such a short time. She needs to rest further without more being absorbed. The legends state the moment she absorbs them all. It is likely she is the next one to die to save the world like the first angel from the legends Solzeni.”
“I know I was around at that time. I lived also in that time and witnessed the angel’s death. I saw the daughter catch the falling mother and have her memories erased. The daughters’ after had their memories constantly erased of their mother after they reached a certain age. I am certain this woman here had her memories erased after a certain age. For now, let us hope she recovers.” Solzeni would raise her gun in the general direction of Skog knowing he was there and indicated that if he made a move or even tried anything stupid she would shot being much faster than his arrow any time and any day.

Skog raised an eyebrow at what he could hear from inside the room. This angel is a weakling. She cannot save my forest, He thought of what the doctor said. No more time to waste today. I'll look for the home-runner and the metal-smeller once more. Walking over to a window, he broke the glass and jumped out. He landed next to a city dog, who spoke with him briefly. "Might I ask a favor of you, house dog?" He asked the dog humbly.
"Depends, I'm busy usually." The dog scoffed at Skog.
"I am king of the forest at the edge of this city," His tone turned abysmally indignant, "You will listen to me. Find a man that smells like metal and a woman with wings. Not the hospital one, however."
