cruxisa | Take me down to the fighting end

[The forest was eerily quiet; only a few buzzes and chirps of the bugs punctuated the silence now and then. Paradisa was always pretty lacking in the wild animal department, but there's no doubt that what little wildlife there had been-- especially those closest to the city-- had been scared off by war between the resistance and Mithos long ago.

Two pairs of footsteps did break the silence, however; Tsuna and Allen were walking in the forest, heading towards the city. It was routine for them to revert angels together when they had the time and resources, and that was exactly what they were planning to do. Of course, should they come upon any angels before they make it to their destination, they'll deal with them as well.

Tsuna's currently got his arms folded behind his head as they walk.]

Seems like a lot's been going on, lately.

((So very much open! If you've got any angels you're looking to turn back, you've come to the right place. Just make sure you explicitly state you'd like to have them keycrested so there's no confusion! ♥))

Too late. I was too late. Mithos tricked me...

[The words come tumbling from her lips, over and over, almost like a mantra as she twists away from both of them. She can't look at them, can't bear to see the compassion and sympathy there--both of which she doesn't deserve.]

Hurt? I hurt them? Is that what you call taking innocent people's lives again and again? Hoping the castle could revive them and let them escape each time, and only to see them later as the Angels Mithos wanted?

Seeing those same eyes that once looked at you in friendship, then in hatred, stare at you [She chokes back a sob] without emotion?

If hurting them is what you call it, then I deserve the same treatment.

PLEASE!!!

[Tsuna winces a little at the shout. Such terrible self-hatred... Tsuna prayed that she would be less frantic after she'd woken from the sedative that Allen was to give her. And he promised himself that he would help find her the strength to keep going.

After contemplating a moment, he lets go of her hand and moves forward, wrapping his arms around her. It's too bad if you don't want that compassion, Sheena, because Tsuna's not near to lacking it.]

Sheena, I remember when we were friends, before this all happened. The first time we met... we were on the expedition to Lastlook. Remember? You came over to me when I was away from the group, and asked me what was on my mind. I was no less than a complete stranger to you, and yet you showed me that kindness.

People like that-- like you-- would never hurt anyone who didn't deserve it. Not of their own will. [He hugs her a little tighter.] I know you didn't mean it, Sheena. And it may not mean much, but I forgive you.

[Tsuna nods to Allen-- there was no reason to let the girl keep suffering. At the very least, they could grant her the first peace of mind she's had in years.]

[While Tsuna is wrapping his arms around her and talking to her, Allen is digging into his bag, preparing a syringe of sedative for her. It's sad, that his medical knowledge seems to be more used in this sense to save people's lives, but what could he do?]

[When it's prepared, he'll lean over when he's sure Tsuna has a good grip on her and inject it into her vein. ]

I'm sorry, but we won't do that. This is a sedative so you can rest....it's the best we can do.

[Not wanting to hear what he has to say,Sheena shakes her head violently as Tsuna speaks, her whole body twisting and turning in an effort to free herself from his grip. She doesn't deserve this, and she knows it. Why can't they? She's no longer the person Tsuna remembers. Two years of unrelenting torture had seen fit to crush that Sheena almost into oblivion making her barely a shell of her former self.

Whatever he hopes to accomplish from saying such things, she'll never truly know, since it's at that point Allen jabs her with the needle, bringing a reflexive "OW!" to her lips before she turns to him, her eyes blinking as the sedative begins to take hold.]

Nooo... Not sleep... Not that kind...

[She trails off as she drifts off, snoring lightly as she falls against Tsuna in a dead weight.]
