"... Promise, you'll wake up in time. When you awaken I will be there by your side. There's a person, he'll fix the broken mistakes. I'll find him and journey on... I will save you, whatever it takes." Alex hummed the soft melody softly, gently brushing her fingers against the sleeping girl's strawberry blonde colored hair. Allowing the two other women to sleep soundly. It had been a long tiring day. Many people died. Rid... He died as well. Yet she had little time to mourn over the lives lost. It made her wonder if that made her heartless in comparison to others. But... Naisha would be devastated when she woke up and discovered what happened. The red head would have to tell the Mage the truth, as hard as it was. Alex would try her best to be the strong figure, some support beam. Still. Her heart felt heavy as the reality of the situation sunk in.
That heaviness hardened as she thought of Thane. For this, he was definetly going to pay for.
Glancing up, her blue eyes sharpened as she heard a knock. She wasn't really worried about the thief busting in. There was plenty of authorities outside and only a idiot would try breaking in and get put in jail for thievery and vandalism. Wasn't that worth it, and she was willing to bet the authorities were not feeling to keen on suspicious people.
Shifting to scoop the summoner in her arms before returning her to on the chair, shifting her so she wouldn't fall off and wrapping the blankets around her. Unsheathing Brotherhood with her right hand as her body stepped quietly toward the door. Listening carefully and sniffing the air a bit. She could hear voices, one of which being Gippal, and the others th annoying broad. Growling in irritation, but sheathed the sword, she opened the door.
"They're not worried about you. They just want a bicker fest between two immature girls. They don't know how to handle it so they don't like dealing with it and it be bad for the those sleeping. So do try ago take a rain check on that pride of yours Ice Princess and shut up for a bit and I'll not yell. For your sleeping Summoner's case. You can do that right?" Alex remarked with a huff at the ice woman's comment, not so keen in interacting with her after the past couple of days and what she just did to Naisha. Still, Alex couldn't hold her thoughts back, but she turned her gaze toward the others of the group, namely her two childhood friends. Arms crossing a little over her chest as she tapped her fingers against them.
Her blue eyes glared to Urick, feeling her temper slightly rising but took a couple of deep breaths to calm her anger. It was always difficult for her. Even if she didn't want to be angry, it just ended up that way. But the thought that Naisha and Eva were sleeping and needed her rest at least kept her from shouting and keep a more level tone. She was tired, hungry, and irritated, so her temper was like a boiling kettle. But she managed to take a couple more deep breaths as she looked to Urick.
Examining closely, she tried not to think back on what she feared and focused on what currently was happening. "Are you okay? Seems you took quite the beating. If I knew you'd get that distracted easily, I'd have trained you harder when you visited." she mused, her words a little harsh but had a touch of concern in them. Reaching her right hand up and cupping his cheek as she leaned closer. Fingers gripping his jaw to turn his head and look him over, like a mother searching for any hidden injuries or dirt. Before she released him and turned away.
"They're still sleeping so stay quiet. And don't touch them." Alex said, glaring toward the thief as she said the last part before she turned away and walked back inside to both move out of the way so they could come in and to return to her post in guarding. Sitting down beside the bed and pulling Eva to rest on her lap.
Although her words were to the point and perhaps harsh, her body was a little more relaxed now. She wasn't so happy with that woman here or a bunch of other strangers around. But, Gippal and Urick were here so she felt she didn't have to be as uptight. Or maybe it was just a excuse to relax enough to feel some sort of rest.
"So. What's the plan Cottonhead?" Alex said in a clear but quiet voice. Her blue eyes glancing toward him.
