Serena was starting to panic when Sebastian pulled her by her hand and dragged her out of the gardens, so much for their quiet night. She was starting to think that if anything else went wrong she'd need another ring... She let him pull her as she tried to keep her own emotions in check so that she didn't get to worked up. Then she saw Anna and nausea swept over her. She looked but she couldn't see Gunner anywhere. 

She took a deep breath and tried not to think the worst but it was rather hard not to when their friend had been swept away by a horde of Strigoi... She let Sebastian take her into the infirmary and thought that maybe she should have them check on the baby while she was here, after they ensured that Anna was okay. She bit her lip when Sebastian told the nurse to move and dragged her into Anna's room. She gave the woman an apologetic look over her shoulder before she turned her attention forward. She took a deep breath as she looked at their bruised friend. She dropped Sebastian's hand and walked over to her, pushing some of her hair out of her face. 

Serena looked at Sebastian when he spoke, she could feel how being here made him feel but she didn't agree. She shook her head, "No, you don't get to leave, Sebastian," She told him as she moved back to the foot of the bed where he stood, "Our friend is going to need us when she wakes up and I can't handle all that's she's gone through alone. You are going to wait with me because I [i]need[/i] you to wait with me," There were tears in her eyes that were wide with fear and worry that she was trying to keep under control, "I can't be alone right now, Sebastian," She said in a stern voice, "I don't trust myself to be alone and I don't trust myself to reassure our friend."

She took a deep breath, finding anger welling up in herself, and turned away from him. She walked over and found a cloth that sat on the table beside Anna's bed. She grabbed it and squeezed it a little before holding it out, "Clean up the blood... Maybe you'll feel better if you are doing something..."
