Maya’s ears rang as she stepped forward, completely unable to hear the Jaw’s roar at her right before it disappeared. She kept an eye on Madison as the others went to check on Vashti. It seemed that she wasn’t going to do it again… or the Jaws wasn’t going to, since she claimed it wasn’t her at the time. Maya kept her judgements to herself. She’d just soundblast anymore attacks if need be. 

She had been ripping Emily’s hair out just moments ago after all (and would do so again if she was given the opportunity). 

The sound of a car pulling up broke through the loud ringing and she turned with narrowed eyes to find bi- Agent Liao stepping out looking like she was attempting to be some kind of cool business woman. It just made her look like an asshole (or maybe she was going for that too). 

[quote=Meifeng]"Every time I show up somebody is hurt." [/quote]

[color=FireBrick]“Maybe if you turned up earlier each time, we wouldn’t be,”[/color] Maya snapped, unable to hold it back after whatever the fuck had just happened. She was constantly switching between anger, shock, exhaustion and intense fucking pain and it was making her even more grouchy than she had been. 

She didn’t even look all that happy that Trevor was there. It was partly because he was hanging back and also because the adrenaline of everything had been drained from her body, and she was in intense pain from when she’d slammed into the ground after being thrown through the air. Still she gave him a (very pained) smile and a half assed wink. Flirting wasn’t really in the equation so much as getting treated and in bed. 

Her injured hand was throbbing now, and a quick glance told her that her already broken finger had been bent even more out of place thanks to fighting with Emily. Worth it. 

She walked over to the people gathering around Vashti, mostly addressing Herik and Claudette rather than the DENs agent tending to Vashti. 

[color=FireBrick]“Can’t we just go to a hospital?” [/color]She held up her hand, with a very visibly bent backwards and broken finger. “It’d be better for Vashti and I need to get a splint or whatever for this. Aside from whatever they’re talking about,” she waved in the direction of Meifeng and Lyss having a conversation she couldn’t care less about, [color=FireBrick]“I think the rest of us need rest and not stupid government interrogations.” [/color]

Isla had absolutely no clue what Mariah said but she could tell that it was probably something panicked considering how much she was crying. She didn’t even mind that she was being held and rocked as if she was a baby because she was still very much in shock herself. She’d never been one to care about physical contact, even in this weird situation, and she was far too tired to do anything but crack open one eye.

That creature wasn’t something she’d get out of her mind anytime soon. She was going to have nightmares of it, she could tell that already. What if it followed her home? She didn’t even have a home. What if it found her on the streets one night? She’d had enough non deadly glomping from twelve year olds on the internet back in the day, she didn’t need it from a flesh eating creature.

She turned her head slightly to look at the others, freezing in panic at the massive van with FBI clearly on the side. Fuck, was she about to get deported?! Wait, wouldn’t that be a good thing? She wasn’t sure.

[color=f26522]“Aw fuck, is that the cops, I ain’t here for that, how the hell did they end up here,”[/color] she started rambling quietly while trying to figure out if she had the energy to scramble away before they noticed her and her definitely not legal ass. [color=f26522]“Am no on any kinda visa, what if they kick me out, that’d be shite.” [/color]

She really didn’t have the energy to move. Maybe if she stayed here in Mariah’s arms and pretended to be dead the other girl would carry her away and she wouldn’t be noticed at all.
