| The Sixteenth Spell | (Audio)

[king_to_be]

[A sound that seems like a soft purr is first heard, and then... a massive roar erupts.

Fire. The hissing and spitting of fire is all about.]

Nuuuh- [A child's strained cough.]

Everyone... I have to help everyone get out of here--

Kiyo...

[A shift of movement followed by a rather unnerving thud.] ...maro.

[She was sleeping, but all the fire commotion has kind of woken her up. And this so does not sound good.]

G-Gash? A... are you there? G-Gash!

[Screw being sick, that's for not-doctor-people. She's just going to get out of bed and stumble out into the hall to go look for him.]

Gash!

[king_to_be]

[Sprawled out in the middle of a corridor is the soot-laden child, hands burnt a rather nasty shade from trying to pry hot and even melting doors open-- doors that might have belonged to a wounded patient's room.

Stubborn? Yes. Yes he is.]

Uuu...

[lovelyscientist]

[She's just going to run with all the finesse of a zombie and look around for him. Fire? Forget that, she can take it! Also ignore the fact she's probably working Sephiroth into an early grave here. It does take her a while, but she finds him eventually and half collapses, half kneels down next to him, tired. When she speaks her voice is a little hoarse from the smoke.]

G-Gash... Are you...

[Seeing his hands she gasps, or does her best approximation through a coughing fit and tries to pull him into her arms.]

We have... have to g-go...

[king_to_be]

[Tired eyes flutter open, and he curls into the weary attempt at picking him up, partially subconsciously seeking comfort or at least some assurance of safety.

Still-]

But...

Some people might... be...

[cozmic_travel]

... We can't have you failing now, little one. That girl will be rather upset if you die here.

-And Eirin is on her way.-

[king_to_be]

[Well, Gash isn't going anywhere. The flames might, but yeah...]

[loyal_cube]

Bell-san!

[Looking for you~!]

H-Hold on, Bell-san!

[king_to_be]

[Being unconscious and burnt is just all a part of growing up. Perhaps. Well, anyway, Gash greatly appreciates your help, Cube. You know, that is... if he could hear you and all.]

[loyal_cube]

Bell-san?!

[Oh man, hes kinda frantic right now running around]

Bell-saaaaan!!!

[king_to_be]

[Aw, don't worry there Cube. Even if you can't find him, he's being (hopefully) rescued by zombie-- super mom. In other words, Lucrecia.]

[twotails9lives]

Stop it! Stop it!

[Not talking to anyone in particular]
