She could feel herself losing consciousness.She closed her eyes, giving in to whatever Fate would bring. Sounds around her blurred together until they faded out, and then she was on the floor. Air filled her lungs again as the world started coming back. For whatever reason the Drakken had dropped her, and she wasn't about to waste this chance. She tried to move away from the Drakken, only managing to scoot herself up against the leg of a table. She concentrated on her breathing, and her groggy mind raced to try and understand what was going on. People were fighting, and the Drakken who'd had her by the neck only a moment before was lying motionless on the ground not far from her. Everything except her seemed to be moving in super speed. After a moment, she was able to pick out words being said nearby, though not connecting them to any meaning. That was, until she heard her late husband's name said. She looked back to where his body lay, and found that she didn't want to leave him. She started to try and crawl back to his side, but her efforts were stopped before she could even move by someone picking her up off the ground. Even though she was still struggling to breathe, she tried to protest the sudden capture. [color=808000]"n.. no... I.. wan..to...stay... Kai..."[/color] Even the few syllables she could get out were a battle in themselves, and after a second she gave in to her rescuer’s hold as they explained what was going on. [B][color=f0a446]"My name is Siadamkiru Beneni. I don’t mean to hurt you, child, so stay calm and breathe and gather your strength. That would have killed almost any other Gemminite. Kaivor Igvrius will be laid to rest by his family, and Vilyn Hilevus will be dealt justice – do not worry about them.”[/color][/B] From a glance Onyx could tell that her rescuer was a Drakken lady, and as odd as that may have been, she wasn't exactly able to comment on her situation anyway. Her head was still swimming, and so she merely tried to hold on to Lady Sia as best she could as she carried her. [color=808000]"Thank... you..."[/color] She whispered, hoping the immense gratitude and sincerity she felt could be heard in the two simple words. She lost consciousness shortly after speaking, falling into a dreamless sleep. [hider=summary] Groggily observing everything, can't really comprehend anything. Onyx falls asleep grateful and safe in Sia's arms. [/hider]
