✥ Characters :: Nine and Akemi
✥ Location :: Outskirts of Poena Privus.
- Akemi was feeling her beating from the day before, that Witch Eater had sure done a number on her. It was not often the girl felt her mortality, but she knew now that she would have been a goner if Ruria had not turned up. Maybe now was the time to lay low, her training would start soon and if it was all Ruria made it out to be... She needed to preserve her strength and get better as fast as she could.
This morning her hunger had been merciless, she felt she had tasted from every food establishment in the city. She was well and truly full and now on a long work in the hope of stretching her legs and burning some calories. Her body was still ringing with pain, especially now the drugs had wore off, but she needed to endure. She was never one to stay in bed, or do what she was told for that matter.
Especially when her orders came from men in white coats.
Doctors. Hospitals. Needles. Yuck.
About an hour out of the city she decided to take a break. The wolf girl flopped down in the grass, looking up at the blue sky above her. The scent of pollen ticked her nose and her extremely large breakfast was making her sleepy.
Maybe she could close her eyes... just for a moment.
