[ She's hiding right now, in her secret area of Ammy's forest, and tending to some injuries. She has a vial of Poto Oil, which she's dabbing onto various cuts and bruises on her arms and legs, and one larger one on her back that she struggles to get to. She has a black eye, her jewelry's missing, and her once clean, pink dress is now brown and torn. But she's alive, and glad she has a place to retreat to and heal before she goes back home. The questions she'd be asked, well, she's not sure she could lie her way out of this one. ]

[Squirming and struggling through the woods, calling her name.]

[ She's quiet for a while, unsure of whether to answer or let him keep looking. He's honestly one of the last people she wants to face right now-- almost on the same level as her mother. But her conscience gets the best of her. ]

Firo?

[immortalmistake.livejournal.com]

[He stops, and the branch he was holding back springs back and smacks his forehead. He flinches.]

Angie! Where are you? I've been looking for you--where'd you go?! I've had every other man I can spare out in the city.

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

Follow my voice, all right? I can't direct you if I don't know where you are. There should be more lampflowers as you get closer.

[Comes staggering his way through the trees and nearly falling on his face. He looks almost frantic with worry, and seeing her doesn't change that at all.] Angie! [Scrambles upright and trots over to take her shoulders gently.] Where did you go? What were you thinking? It's New York, you can't go off alone like that!

[Someone discovered the value of trees--she has been pushing off from tree to tree, floating through the air. She loses momentum and ends up hanging almost fifteen feet over Angela's head.]

Hey! I want down.

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ Angela blinks, then looks up. ] Oh. It's you. Why are you floating?

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

I ate a bug. [She dangles grumpily.]

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

Bugs can do that? [ She leans back and stares at Cy. ] I'd help you, but anything I did would probably hurt you more than anything else.

[cyfor.livejournal.com]

This bug did! I want down.

[Is just wandering the Plane when he hears something in the forest and goes to investigate. He watches Angela through the trees for a bit before approaching very cautiously.]

Angela?

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ Angela jumps, nearly spilling her Poto Oil, but relaxes a bit when she sees Li. ] Li... Hey.

[contract_star]

[Flinches backward at her reaction and keeps his distance.] I won't come any closer.

What...what happened?

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

No, it's okay. I wasn't...

[ She looks down, dabbing at a bruise on her thigh. ] I got lost.

[contract_star]

[All the same, he doesn't move from where he's standing.]

Where?

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Ammy smells trouble! Literally.]

Angela? Are you alright?

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

Amaterasu... [ Angela fidgets a bit, trying to cover her black eye with her hair. ] I'm fine.

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[She sighs.] People use the word "fine" so loosely around here.

[She approaches slowly until she's close enough to sniff at Angela.] Can you tell me what happened?

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

I... [ Angela winces at the memories and starts rubbing her shoulders, as if to banish the feel of New York's unclean rainfall. ] I don't...

[shinypaws.livejournal.com]

[Lets out a whine and crouches down.] Oh, love, don't cry. [She delicately licks Angela's knee.] You are safe now.

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

[Dino had been going to rest here for a while a while but he freezes when he sees Angela and rushes over to her] Angela, what happened?

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

[ She looks up. ] D-Dino...

[ And well, that's really all it takes before she breaks down. ]

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

[SFJSJFSKL He's reaching for her slowly and gently drawing her to him] Shh, it's all right, you're safe. It's okay Angela, I'm right here. I won't let anything else happen to you.

[witchmaker.livejournal.com]

Dino... [ Eloquent, isn't she? She just clings to him, continuing to cry. The fact that he's here now is so tremendously relieving. ]

[buckingbronco.livejournal.com]

[Just holds her, muttering soothing things as his mind frantically races to figure out what happened to her. He'll let her calm down a bit before he asks, but he is going to find out. No one hurts someone he cares about like this and gets away with it.]
