Book 2: Intermission 2
The recording studio where Aria is minutes prior to Scarlet falling unconscious.
Aria wasnt sure what she would do after she found herself in a Class II Fracture all alone. Shed simply decided to go out and take a short break from the filming of the advertisent, and head to the bathroom. But while she was in there, the Fracture had begun. So she panicked.
By the ti she managed to find a bunker though not being used to the building and all the ergency power had already shut off, and no matter how loudly she shouted at the door, no one would open it. Because no one could hear her.
She wasnt sure what she wouldve done if she hadnt run into Scarlet Asger.
And now? Now she just wishes she would co back again.
Aria continuously glances at the door before focusing on the window again. Over and over again.
Please be okay. Please be okay. Please be okay.
Scar a nickna she promptly decided to start calling Scarlet on a whim was the first adult to ever treat her normally. To not coddle her for being the daughter of the psychopathic Knight. To not fear her. To not be put off by her difficulty in expressing emotion.
She treated her like a normal human being.
After several more seconds of repeatedly looking at the door and jumping from fright and worry every single ti even the slightest noise sounds in the otherwise silent room, she eventually feels a few tears leaking from the corner of her eye.
I dont want to be alone
Aria purses her lips, the tears slowly dripping down her cheek before shaking her head and running towards the door, not caring anymore about the possibility of danger. She just throws the door open and runs down the hall, soon hearing a loud roar coming from the other side of the floor. So she runs down it in the hopes of finding the source.
After running down the hall for a bit, Aria thinks she starts to hear a voice from further down the hall. And when she gets closer, she can begin to make it out as she finds what used to be a doorway with the door completely blown off of its hinges by so sort of explosion.
Dont you dare close your eyes! We just need you to get over to a window! Now! Aria hears soone with a strange and powerful sounding voice shout in a panic as she gets closer to the door. But everything goes silent by the ti she reaches the doorway and finds whats inside, gasping almost imdiately upon doing so.
Inside of the room she finds a tanuki pulling a badly injured Scar by the ears towards a curtain covered window on the other side of the room. And just from a brief glance alone, Aria can tell that Scarlet has a bad burn on her back, her jacket and shirt largely burnt on her back left side, with a large cut across her stomach and a much, much worse wound cutting straight from her left side through her chest directly to where her heart would be.
No, no, no, nonononono!!!!
Eventually Aria begins shouting, No!!! You cant die! as she quickly runs over to Scar, ignoring the demon corpses along the way and instead raising her hand, using multiple skills at once to make a light blue orb of water radiating a golden light manifest in front of her. She then moves the glowing water to Scars biggest wound, the wound slowly beginning to seal itself in the process. And at the sa ti, one of her eyes takes on a purple hue as a glowing light radiates from it and so of the strands of her hair turn into blueish purple tentacles reminiscent of her father.
Aria just ignores her fathers etched skill acting up again as she uses her skills on her.
Water Heal, Holy Rejuvenation, Waters Blessing!!!
Various different glowing lights begin shining from Scars body, including different shades of blue and gold as her wounds very slowly begin to heal.
Out of the corner of Arias eye, she can see the tanuki rushing over to the window for so reason before opening it and letting the crimson light of the blood moon flow in. But, not giving her a chance to question the actions of what is obviously Scars fae, Aria quickly notices the wounds on Scars body beginning to heal at an even faster pace than her healing skills usually heal. Even faster than the quick regeneration she had already noticed her savior having earlier on when she would get back from fighting the fomorians on the floor.
Please dont die, Aria cant help but mumble to herself as tears continue falling down her face, over and over again, the girl not wasting a single ounce of mana as she spams her skills on Scar.
If you die, Im never going to let you hear the end of it, the tanuki suddenly speaks, but Aria is too busy spamming her healing skills on Scar to care.
Please dont let the wound actually have hit her heart please, oh please, oh pleeeaase!!!
Aria continues chanting that in her mind as she mutters to the unconscious girl in front of her and repeatedly uses healing skills until eventually, the wounds appear to be closed enough that they arent life threatening.
But she continues using the skills all the way till she runs out of mana entirely, even after the wound is closed up entirely. It isnt until she hears the tanuki saying Thats enough, that she even notices that shed run out of mana in the first place.
Aria looks at the tanuki and blinks in confusion for a second, only to crawl down next to Scar and put her hand on the Guardians face, lightly tapping it a few tis as she asks, Please wake up, Scar
Seconds pass. Then the seconds turn into minutes. And eventually, five minutes later, Scars eyes finally begin to flutter open, showing a confused expression on them that only grows even more confused when she sees Aria there.
But Aria doesnt care. She just imdiately rushes forward and pulls Scar into a hug, squeezing her tighter than a regular human girl her age should be able to thanks to her status as a Guardian.
Youre awake! she just continues muttering over and over again, tears leaking down her eyes as she sobs once in a while.
Shes alive!
