Chieko tiredly stared at everyone present. At Vertti. At Talus. Flame, and Ashton. Alistair. Aerith. Maybe if she hadn't been quite so hard on her. Maybe if she had been a bit nicer things wouldn't have ended up like this, but what could she have done? If she hadn't done things the way she did, then she wasn't sure if she would have made it herself. She turned her gaze exhaustedly towards Ashton. [color=chocolate]"...idiot."[/color] She grunted, hefting her club, Glancing over to Vertti. She didn't know her very well. She understood Vertti was probably a nice person. Probably the nicest person she had met in this entire adventure...but what were their options? Fighting Talus was not a fight she thought she could win. He was obviously something beyond them. Something that they couldn't yet touch...but she couldn't bring herself to raise her weapons against Aerith, and she really didn't want to do the same to Vertti, either. Why? WHY. Why did someone have to die?! She could save them, right? All of them, she could she just...just...was too weak to do it... [color=chocolate]"...will killing you solve all this?"[/color] Chieko couldn't look at Vertti. [color=chocolate]"...I know we don't really...know each other, and I really, really, really, don't want too...but will it?"[/color]
