Ofelia had no intention of powering up this evening, however all that changed as she came across a story on the news. Destiny City had a notoriously high number of missing persons, so another report on the disappearance of a teenager was not out of the ordinary, what attracted her to this particular case was the fact that they were last seen within half a mile of Guilia’s residence. At first she tried to push the story from her mind, scold herself for getting personally invested, but in the end she gave in to her curiosity. Powering up into Mjolnir before she set off into the night.
It did not take long for the Beserker Senshi to descend upon the estate’s garden, it was late and truthfully she did not expect to find the children playing outside. She just wanted to capture a glimpse of them living their peaceful, mundane lives so she could settle the growing worry in her gut. Mjolnir was displeased with the fact she had been unable to locate the chaotic force that was terrorising the area, locating youma was never usually this challenging - she made a mental note to make others aware. Maybe someone else would have better luck than her.
It had been less than a week since she had met the Montgomery heiress, who was a very likable young lady despite her age. Mjolnir had no affinity for children nor did she have any maternal instinct. She was corrupted long before she had thoughts of children and family, and after accepting her role as a senshi had come to understand that a civilian life was something beyond her reach. Not everyone could be as well balances as Raven and Jett; nor could everyone be as careless. She loved Chloe, but bringing a child into this world when it was so poisoned and hostile…. She thought it irresponsible.
The brunette was on the outskirts of the garden, following cobbled paths through bushes and flowers. Spring was in full bloom and the colours were extraordinary. “Guilia? Are you playing out here? I need to talk to you.” She called out, quiet enough not to alarm the staff, but loud enough to be heard by small figures that might be hiding in the foliage. That was when she caught sight of blonde locks, it seemed that chef must still be in the kitchen?
”Did you do your homework?” She asked, approaching.

Giulia got to stay up extra late on Saturday nights, and this Saturday was not to be an exception. She wasn't, however, supposed to be outside this time of night. But tomorrow was Mama's birthday, and Giulia wanted to collect some flowers from the garden, and it had been a busy day, and tomorrow morning would be busy before they went to the graveyard, so... Jada had told her that mama didn't need Giulia to visit, but she wanted to. Mama was in another place, so she didn't need flowers, but Giulia wanted to leave them anyway. Birthdays were, after all, very important. The sound of a familiar voice caused Giulia to light up, and the little girl spun around in delight to face Mewdile, her blonde curls shining in the dim light cast by the house and garden lights. "Shhhh," she told Mewdile, blue eyes bright and shiny with happiness to see the magical woman; "I'm not supposed to be outside right now. I wanted to get some flowers though." In the windows, there were shapes of people moving through and past, the last remnants of help cleaning up for the night before they went to their own homes. Giulia kept peeking up at them, then darted over to give the senshi a big hug, her hands still full of flowers that bruised as she gripped at the dark-colored magic princess. "I did my homework," she confirmed proudly; "I had to do it or we couldn't go play today." she tried very hard not to pout about it, but it was difficult. "How are you, Mewdile? Is there another bad yoh-mah around?"

“I am sorry, I will be quiet.” The brunette smiled, nodding her head and hushing her tone. She should have scolded Guilia for sneaking out, but she was so relieved to find her okay that she overlooked the disobedience. Small arms wrapped around her, and Mjolnir adjusted uncomfortably for a moment. She was not used to hugs, nor was she used to something so small invading her personal space. Children made her nervous, they were breakable, and she was hard and cold and not suited for them. But after a moment she held the girl to her gently, returning the hug for a brief second.
The Senshi then shook her head at the question. “I do not think so, but I thought I would come and check whilst I was nearby. Somebody went missing not too far away, so I am going to try and find them.” The likelihood of the missing teen still being alive was small, but she thought she might have a better chance than the detectives, even if her search just confirmed the kill. Who knew, she might surprise herself and find the person drained of energy and sleeping in a ditch somewhere. Thoughts that Guilia did not have to dwell on.
Her heart ached as she was asked how she was. She was scared, sad and very lonely. Things had taken a turn for the worst and soon not even her friends would recognise her. Every moment was filled with impending dread and she was lost in a current that was fighting against her. Another matter that the young girl had no right to be burdened with. So instead she faked her best smile and held her a little tighter. “Do not worry about me, I am fine.” I will be fine. She reassured her, she tried to reassure herself.
“Those are some really lovely flowers, who are they for?”

Giulia giggled as Mewdile pet her on the head, affection for the total stranger who made their way onto her family's property not once, but twice (for good reason, mewdile had said she was there to protect princess Giulia and family from a bad creature) mixing with an utter lack of guile as she batted big blue eyes up at the dark senshi. "No reason to be sorry, you didn't know." she cast a look at the window, and tugged the older woman deeper into the garden happily, further out of sight of the window, where someone might see. "Someone went missing near here?" Giulia felt her eyes widen, her little mouth dropping open. They didn't have many neighbors out this way, just a few people who lived a bit away in... well it felt like forever away. But the back yard was bigger than the front part, so maybe they lived up thata- who was missing? So many questions! Her little brow furrowed. "I hope you find them. The monsters can be very naughty, and should be very punished and put in time out." Giulia patted Mewdile's cheek, looking as reassuring as she could. "You are very good, mewdile. I believe in you, okay? You're gonna bring them home and stop the bad monster." Not a single lick of doubt lay in Giulia's mind that the dark-suited magical woman would bring the missing person home. Rescue was that heroes did, and they didn't give magic to just anyone. Only heroes and villains, and Mewdile was too nice to be a villain. "The flowers are for mama. My big brother called and said soon is her birthday but he can't come down, so I told Jada I wanna visit in the morning to leave flowers from Zora and Lucas and Me and Aidan and Jada, and she said we could. So we're gonna go leave flowers at her little rocky stone, and then sing her happy birthday, and take a picture for Lucas so he knows we sang her a song and so he can see the present. I don't think flowers are a great present, but she doesn't need any gifts or cake delivered to Heaven, so she'll get flowers instead."

Mjolnir followed Guilia as she was lead deeper into the garden, eyes casually looking over all the plants and foliage, it was rare she took time to appreciate flowers but it was hard not too in such a wonderful looking place. Guilia’s back yard was like a park in itself, it must be so easy to get lost in play out here. When Mjolnir was a child she only saw the garden from her window, most days she was in the music room or the study and was rarely allowed outside. The older she got, the stranger her childhood seemed, but she dare not say the words out loud. She loved her mother and in the same breath wanted nothing more than to be free of her, until she was.
“Yea, high school students often wander into remote places where grown ups can’t keep an eye on them.” She explained with a small shrug, it was not safe to get up to no good in parks anymore with the Negaverse presence so strong - maybe the woods seemed safer? There was a chance they were even lead out here by an attacker. The truth was until she actually started to investigate it was all speculation. Chances were she would find nothing, but Guilia seemed to believe she could. The brunette paused for a moment, and then smiled. “I hope so too. I will try my best.” She stated, before she listened to the girl's story.
Golden eyes drifted off for a moment, it just seemed so unfair. “I think flowers are a very thoughtful present and I am sure she will be very greatful. You are so… very good, Guilia.” She could imagine her, dressed up and singing in a graveyard with her large smile and bright hair. Little a little angel amongst the stones. This is why she fought, she told herself, so she could put an end to children having to place flowers on the graves of loved ones.
A sickly feeling hit her stomach as the Senshi became rigid. She looked over her shoulder, and then back around to the child with a confused expression. This again? She felt the taint of darkness in the air, but there was nothing to be seen. Still, she did not want to take any chances. “Guilia, can you run back to the house for me? As qui-” She began, but it was too late for that, suddenly it dawned on her as the aura got closer and closer. The reason she had not been able to locate it - it was under their feet.
“Go!” She urged her as the first claw broke free of the dirt, followed by the second. In the blink of an eye the large mole like creature broke through the dirt like a whale coming up for air. The ground started to break apart around it, and Mjolnir found herself balanced on the end of its nose. It was a big boy.
Eyes glowing red, the Senshi brought her fist straight downwards, and as it collided with the creature's nose, the shockwave made it cry out. "Mjolnir's Wrath!"

Giulia led Mewdile around the hedge, because that way it would be harder for someone in the house to spot her and her new friend unless they were on the second floor or in the tower. All around them Spring was popping up and making allurchies, which would make lots of people sneeze, and pawlin, which was yellow goop that went everywhere and made more flowers. Hopefully Mewdile didn't have all lurchies to pawlin. Is she did, Giulia would have to go get her a pill to stop the sneezing, but getting back out of the house would be hard. "Nobody should wander late at night with no one to keep an eye on them," Giulia said seriously, "That got me attacked by a yoh-mah, and I had to be protected by a handsome knight. He was very nice, and he spoke french. I like French. Everyone is supposed to speak it with me around here when they can, because I spoke it when I was little. Do you speak French, Mewdile?" Not that she wanted to speak French with Mewdile. No; the sad princess was her friend, and so it was more important that they spoke fun words, and could talk really fast and understand each other. that would be the most important thing. Giulia leaned up with tubby hands, patting Mjolnir as high on the arm as she could reach, since Mewdile was very tall, so the cheek would be hard. "I believe in you," she reassured the Dark Mirror Senshi, "You'll find the bad monster and keep all of the people safe." Giulis pressed the toe of her shoe into the ground, beaming. "I hope Mama likes them." Not that she would know if she didn't, but maybe that was for the best. She wasn't sure her heart could handle it if Mama didn't like her flowers, when Giulia was working so hard picking the very nicest flowers from the Mongtomery Gardens. The gardens her mama was supposed to have played in when she was a child. That was why Jada eas raising them here in Destiny City, after all; so they could be closer to their Mama. She lifted her head as Mewdile spoke. "Go back to the house? Do you need som-" she gave a startled cry as Mew cried for her to go, and then something came out of the ground between them. Oh no! It was a yoh-mah! It came up underneath, shaking the ground, and Giulia cried out in fear as Mewdile was lifted into the air. This was awful! Under her feet, the ground shifted, but Giulia was too slow; it rolled and roiled, and she found herself on her knees, scrabbling for dirt, small body bumped and bruis- And then a THUMP from behind, and Mewdile yelling, and Giulia was slipping down, further down, nails scrabbling at chunks of broken earth as she fell- down... down... Into the darkness.

Mjolnir slipped from the Monsters nose whilst it was writhing in pain from her attack, using it as a chance to run towards the opening in the ground. She did not see the blonde fall, but knew the hole was right where she had been stood. Her worst fear was realised, there was no way the child had been able to escape in time. “Guilia!” She called down, reaching as far as she could but grasping nothing but air inside the void; it was a dark abyss that was too small for the Senshi to follow. “Are you okay?” She waited impatiently for an answer, her stomach turning over from worry. Behind her she heard a rustling, the monster must have recovered. “Damnit.” She cursed under her breath. Her attention torn in two directions - she did not know what to do.
Though she knew she did not have a choice, she could not leave the monster here to save the child - it would be putting the rest of the people on the estate in danger. Guilia would never forgive her if she let something happen to Aiden, or cook, or miss Jada. “Guilia, do you remember Alice falling down the rabbit hole? You are going to have to be brave like her, pretend you are chasing after Mr Rabbit to wonderland.” The ground was too unstable here, and no doubt the battle would only upset the tunnels that lead underneath. Guilia would have to crawl, run, drag herself out the other end. Or at the very least get as far away as she could.
The brunette looked over her shoulder towards she creature and grated her teeth. “Geist. Spectre, find the opening to this damn hole.” She hissed, barking the order to her obedient wraiths appeared out of the darkness. They vanished over the fence as quickly as they had materialised, on a mission to find the place where Guilia would eventually crawl out. She had done all she could, now all that was left was to take out the Youma before it could cause any more destruction and try her best to push her troubled thoughts to the back of her mind.
“I need to go now, remember what I told you before, never be afraid. You can do this.” She tried to reassure the girl, not at all knowing if the blonde would be able to hear her words, or that she was not injured and crippled at the bottom of the shaft. What was she meant to do?
The Senshi stood up, feeling powerless, angry. Reluctantly walking away from the opening to take her feelings out on the monster.

As she fell, further and further down, Giulia didn't scream. Instead, she reached out for the sides of the hole, trying to seek them and grabbing at anything that crossed her path. Fiercely, she clawed at anything that gave her purchase, digging tiny, rainbow-colored fingers into the dirt, trying to slow herself until she came to a thump at the bottom of the hole and stared up, stunned. Her fingers were torn and bleeding, dirt thickly-caking tiny nails, but nothing hurt too bad yet. Something told Giulia that she would hurt later, but not as bad as the yoh-mah would. She read books about animals that used their same tunnels over and over. Not monsters, but they lived in their little tunnels, and had babies there. This was not the kind of place for a princess to stay. She knew she needed to get up. She needed to move, and get out of the hole. From above her, though she could not see up to the top of the hole, she thought she could hear words echoing down. Okay... Alice... Hole... Brave... Land... That meant that Mewdile was still up there, and still fighting the yohmah. That meant that Aidan was still there, and Jada, and all of them were in danger, and if any of them had heard the explosion from Mewdile protecting her, they would come out and be in big danger. Giulia didn't want anyone in danger, but she wasn't strong enough to climb out of the hole by herself. She didn't have a flashlight, and everything down here was very dark. There could be bones, or snakes, or icky nasty bugs. But she couldn't stay here. Princess Giulia had to be like the princesses she idolized in Disney, and be very brave to go on this adventure. Now, what did she have? She had a pain in her leg, but as she pushed up it wasn't a stingy pain so bad she might cry. Her fingers hurt, and her cell phone screen was cracked, but she had 40% battery left and a flashlight app, that she quickly turned on, staring around. The tunnel only led off in one direction, so Giulia swallowed. Putting her hand over the light, letting it face up, she signaled a few times to try and let Mewdile know she was okay, and then took off into the darkness, following the path with the dim lighting of her cell phone. In the house behind Mjolnir, there was a growing commotion, attracted by the sound in the garden. But Giulia began to move onwards, taking each step careful, watching out for bad things, and determined that she'd find the other end in the darkness. There was no reception here- she couldn't make a call. She would keep an eye on it. While the tunnel was one path, everything was okay. Giulia walked where she could, dropping to her knees and belly and wriggling through a few smaller places. The whole time reminding herself that Mulan would be so proud to see Giulia doing hard things. She might not be ready to fight huns, but she was definitely feeling really good and brave. At least until she came to a place where the path split. Not just one or two ways; there were... at least 4 that she could count in the dim light cast by her cell phone. This- this was a bit overwhelming for the princess, and her eyes watered slightly, taking a sniffle. How was she supposed to pick which was was best? She didn't have google...

Geist and Spectre were more animal like than Mjolnir liked to admit and it was not only because of their appearance. Maybe it was silly to grow emotionally attached to Wraiths but she treat them like her pets, she had used them to collect energy at one point, but since she retired that profession they had become more of a past time. Whenever for any reason she needed them to become tangible, she sacrificed her own energy to give them their form.
The brunette never sent them into battle, and knew very little about their species, but in mirror space she would pet them and she had even tried to play fetch a few times. The two small creatures looked through the forest, until they came across a hole. They looked towards each other for a second, and then Geist took the initiative to enter the darkness, whilst Spectre stayed behind at the entrance to keep watch. There was no telling if the blonde was going to appear, there was also no telling if another Youma was not going to attempt to crawl in.
Spectre would be the guard dog, whilst it’s companion played investigator.
A wraith was not really much bigger than a cat, so wandering down the tunnel was quick work. Geist floated through the air, giving off a soft glow and making small, metallic sounding noises. Mirrorwraiths appeared to be made up of hundreds of little shards of glass, and Geist was shaped like a rabbit where Spectre was more goat like in appearance. They all looked different from what Mjolnir could tell, taking on many forms and shapes.
Though she had never seen a wriath bigger and more dangerous than the one she summoned last year. Smol was, unique, and more intimidating than her little animal companions.
The floating rabbit heard a noise after searching for a few minutes and darted towards the source. It came across Guilia in a crossroads, and it shrieked excitedly. Hopping up and down a few times, before it bounded back down the way it came, looking back to make sure she was following. Like Alice in the Rabbit hole, hopefully Mjolnir’s word made sense now. Happily, the creature bounced back towards the girl when she did not follow past enough, hoping around her like a portunus, like Guilia was Luna.
It really wanted her to follow it.

As Giulia sat there, despairing as to which way she would need to go and wishing very much that she had watched more movies where people got lost, instead of movies where puppies and kitties found their way home after getting lost, she was incredibly startled by the sound of a shriek coming from the darkness. Giulia didn't know where the noise was coming from, and her first reaction was fear. The darkness was scary, and she didn't have Ara to protect her from a bad yoh-mah, and Mewdile was far behind, possibly still fighting the bad one on the surface. Or worse, what if the bad yoh-mah had hurt her new friend Mewdile, and now princess Giulia was left alone to fight the badness? Her heart fluttered with fright, and she clutched her phone close to her tiny chest, her rabbit-heart pumping fast. At least until she saw the creature, glittering in the light of her cell phone. It was tiny, and Giulia... didn't think it looked like it would be a bad kitty. It was a bunny, but.... it didn't look like a yoh-mah. It bounced around her, and towards one of the pathways, and she could either stay lost,, or.... be brave. She wanted to be brave. Swallowing down her instinct to be scared and to stay put, Giulia gathered up her phone, and checked her shoes. She ran dirty fingers through her hair, and swallowed hard, before following after the rabbit-like creature that was leading the way. It glittered in the light of her cell phone, and she took her time to try and be safe. Running too fast and being hasty might get her hurt more, and that wouldn't be any more useful than if she had stayed being scared back in the room with the lots of paths. the walls were weird, like they had been cut, but they were smooth too, like they had been rubbed a lot. Whatever the yoh-mah was, it lived here a while, she thought. Making her wonder if there were more people who had fallen into these homes and what had happened to them. Maybe there were people still stuck, in the back? But she couldn't worry about them right now. She was a princess very poorly prepared for a rescue. At last, however, ahead she could see the light. See an exit. "Thank you, Mister Rabbit," she told the glimmering bunny that had led her safe down the paths here, "I appreciate you leading me. Do you know which way I have to go to go home?"

The rabbit looked down at the girl as she made her way out the exit, rolling upside down and tilting its head as she spoke. It did not understand what she was asking and as far as Geist and Spectre was concerned; their mission was completed successfully. A few more mechanical screeches, and then the creature seemed to fall apart, the glass that made up its body falling piece at a time before dematerializing into sparkling dust. The ram like creature who had been waiting at the entrance did the same, walking towards the trees as it too returned to Mirrorspace. All that was left behind was two shards, that floated towards the trees, back towards a hand that was outstretched to catch them.
Mjolnir was looking over her shoulder, knuckles bloody and body bruised. There was blood on her face from whipping the back of her hand across her cheek and forehead and small cuts littered her shoulders. Golden eyes flicked around, knowing she was still being followed, but not knowing how close her pursuer was or where they would appear next. She was trying her best to lead them away from the estate, but at the same time she was staying vigilant in case Guilia was wandering around lost. The brunette heard the screech from the trees and instantly started to run in the direction of the noise, had they found her?
The youma went down easily once it was above ground and once it was defeated the senshi fled the scene to try and escape the growing alarm from the estate Then, to complicate matters her escape had been interrupted by a Captain who was not too happy that she had put an end to her creature. Mjolnir’s distracted state meant she was not in any way suited to battle someone above her rank, so was beaten around before she fled.
Knowing she needed to find Guilia and not sure if there had been other youma under the ground, the brunette had escaped the battle, but the Captain made chase. Her wraiths had lead her to the opening, and the blonde curls of the girl came into her vision she sighed in deep relief. “Guilia” She exhaled whilst running, skidding to her knees to put her arms on the girl's shoulders, face, hair. She gave her a quick look, to try and work out if anything was broken. Battered and shocked maybe, but she seemed to be okay.
“Are you okay? I am so glad you are here, your such a brave girl.” She could not seem to get her words out fast enough, the senshi was clearly injured, but seemed to be too relieved to feel the ache. In a moment she hugged the girl close, before looking back behind her.
She knew they could not stay here, not for very long.

Giulia's face fell at Mr. Rabbit's blank look and vanishing into shimmer dust. The other creature did the same, and Giulia swallowed as the two turned into little pieces of glass and floated away. They had gotten her out of the pit, whatever they were, but now she was alone and very, very lost. She could probably- maybe when sunrise came she would be able to figure out which way to go? She knew that the sun came in her window every morning, so maybe if she... if she faced the way the sun came up from and walked? or maybe... she had walked.... she had walked... she could follow the way she had followed the holes, just over the ground? If she could remember? She hadn't written it down at all; oh, no. Luckily, she did not have to be concerned for long- the little shards of glass were headed towards the trees. Headed towards- "Mewdile!" the little girl flung herself forward, feet slapping against the dirt as she launched herself at the senshi, giving a soft little cry as she flung herself into the dark-suited senshi, her big blue eyes full of relief and a little panic. Her hands were dirty, and her face, and Giulia was scraped up and only bleeding a little bit; for the most part, she was safe, and in much better shape than her lovely, magical friend. Her breath was a little bit of a wheeze, from so much exertion and worry. That had to be it... right? Giulia was a perfectly healthy little princess. "I'm gonna be okay," she promised Mewdile, seeing that the magical princess was anxious and worried. Now was not the time for her to be concerned about Giulia at all. The blonde wrapped her arms around Mjolnir, hugging the older woman tight. "I was scared, but I'll be okay Mewdile. Is the bad yoh-mah gone? Is everyone at home okay? Can I go back soon? Do you know the way home? We can call a doctor for you."

Mjolnir shook her head softly as she tried to gather her thoughts; her mind drawn between attending to Guilia and the Negaverse Agent that could appear any moment. Golden eyes looked down at the blonde in thought, knowing they would be safer is she powered down, as right now she was a beacon that chaos could track down and follow. Guilia did not know her and had no connection to Ofelia the civilian, it was a risk powering down in front of anybody, however that risk seemed more appealing than entering a fight she knew she would not win. She took a deep breath, and before she could talk herself out of the decision powered down. Her amour glew before vanishing, and the woman knelt down holding the child was no longer a guardian but Ofelia.
“Everyone back home is safe, do not worry, I took care of it.” She stated, tucking a golden ring behind her ear, stroking the strands soothingly. She knew the change might be confusing and a little jarring at first, but hopefully she still recognised her face and her voice. “But I can not take you home just yet, you need to trust me, okay? I promise you, your family are not in danger, but we still are.” She did not want to scare her or put her through more than she had already experienced tonight. However, they were not out of the woods. Guilia just needed to be strong a little bit longer. Just a little bit.
“Can I take you to your maybe-daddy’s tonight? You can call Miss Jada from there so she knows you are safe. I promise.” She did not want to risk leading trouble back to the estate, though she new Guilia would be desperate to see her family safe first hand, she was hoping the promise of a phone call was enough to persuade her into following Mjolnir’s plan.
“Do you know where he lives? His name?”

Giulia leaned in as Mewdile turned into a normal girl, like when Ara became Lucia again. The change was quick, but not unfamiliar. What was unfamiliar was the face under the magical mask, but Giulia did not pull away. Lucia was the same girl as both Ara and Lucia, and so too Mewdile would be the same special, magical princess who would help protect Giulia and keep her safe from the badness. "I trust you." Giulia said it without hesitation, looking firmly into Mewdile's eyes, her own big and bright and determined. "If my family is not in danger, that is good. It's our turn to go be safe now." the last was said with only a little tremble. Giulia was getting used to being protected by magical people, but the fact that Mewdile still seemed nervous made Giulia wonder what more had happened than just a yoh-mah. None of the magical people had been as badly hurt protecting her. That meant that this time, the danger had to be really extra big and nasty, and Giulia didn't want to meet whatever it was that had caused this much hurt without a magical person at her side. She couldn't ask Mewdile to go magic again when she was hurt. Giulia would have to protect her this time. "I know where he lives. His name is Mr. Elzo, he and Mr. Marlo live in a big place like a hotel. We'll be safe there. The front desk really wouldn't let a nasty youma inside the hotel. It is a high class is table shmint." Giulia gripped Mewdile's hand tightly. "I'll call Jada once we're there, that's a good idea. She can come and get me, I am sure she will be really scared for me."

Ofelia opened her mouth so speak and shut it again. Elzo? She shook her head, partially in denial. Then Guilia mentioned Marlo and Ofelia wondered why it was so hard to breathe all of a sudden? Her hands rested on the girl's cheeks and the woman looked at her - looked at her properly for the first time. She could not deny there was a resemblance there. The brunettes hands fell, her face slightly pale, like Guilia had suddenly become a ghost. Out of all the children in all the world…
It was a cosmic joke, it had to be. Golden eyes opened to look at the young girl, and she smiled her best smile, to try and distract from her troubled thoughts. “I know where he lives, I can take you there. Elzo is… well, he is a friend of mine.” She reassured her, dread building up in her stomach. She did not know how she felt, angry? sad? scared? All at once, each becoming stronger as her insides twisted. She had ******** up, this was the end of it all. She was not dumb enough to think otherwise, not brave enough to accept it. She had ******** up again.
“My name is Ofelia… when I am like this.” She told the young girl, taking off her hoodie to pull it over her head, golden curls cascading in front of grey fabric. It was long on her, oversized and baggy. But enough to keep her warm, to offer her comfort and to hide her face if need be. “Can I carry you? It will be faster that way.” The brunette offered, opening up her arms so Guilia could approach and hold on the best she could.
