(ooc: A warning... this may get long RP-wise. This is a major plot point that actually happened in our girls' past. We've never played it out before and this is our chance. As you saw from the zoo thread.. 2 people.. can RP ALOT. :) Oz or Tin Man muses feel free to jump in.. but this is set in the Zone, what we call Celcia, in the mid-2350's. Far

"Oh, and we lost her." A few yards back, Dree had stopped to examine the contents of a table, set up outside one of the old junk shops. Trey pulled El's arm. "Forget the dog, we need a leash for her," he teased.

Trey and El always called it one of her odd 'quirks', while she called it memories. Every now and then, she'd found something familiar, but not often.

She turned when Trey stopped and noticed Dree was no longer with them. She chuckled and gave a little piece of her meat to Charlie. "Shhh, don't tell."
She jogged the little ways back to where Dree stood. "What'd you find?"

Her finger tapped the object and she looked up. "I remember when these were new."

She winced as she rolled slightly, reaching for a better grasp on Harry's hand. "Harry.." She frowned and shifted again, trying to get closer. "Harry.. don't.." Her eyes closed and her chin dropped to her chest.
"Oh.. Harry.." she said, tears starting to fall.

She pushed the button on the radio. "D... please, I need you up here. We need you up here." They're all gone.

El looked over as Trey was walking back, "Trey!" She handed him the radio. "She just said that Harry is gone. You've got to get her out of there."

She thought about their own apartment. For all she knew they had nothing left. They had been so happy and carefree when they'd left home that morning. She entwined her fingers with his. "What's going to happen now?"

He let out a sigh and closed his eyes, his own pain medication starting to wear off. "They won't let me see the charts. Screw the local guy with the degree in this crap." He huffed and waved toward a group across the way. "The professionals are on top of things."
He pulled El closer and kissed her head. "We'll worry about the planet later," he said, knowing that neither of them were going to be thinking of much else. He glanced down as El's hand found his and he held her closer.
"We're gonna wait until Chapel comes out here and tells us Aud's good as new and throwing chocolate pudding because she wanted vanilla."

Central City was in ruins, the royal family was dead, she'd been so close to pulling little Della to safety when she was pushed or pulled away, they've lost their Mystic Man. From all she'd heard the planet was devastated. Her wife was probably dead at this moment. She suspected that was the only way her body would heal. But dead was dead and El mourned everytime as if it were the final time.
She felt Trey tighten his hold as she cried against him. She felt him tense and straighten and looked up to see a very tired Chapel standing in the doorway. She wiped her tears and waited to hear what her dear friend had to say.

She'd already banned him to the hallway, and it was easier to keep an eye out for El, who had gone out to get an update on the damage. The muffled cries from the other side of the door got his attention and Trey stiffened as the orderlies helped pull Dree back up to a standing position.
"Damnit, Aud," he cursed under his breath. She was going to do more damage trying to recover than the initial injury caused, at this rate.

Trey took the opportunity to hold El - best as he could with one arm still in a sling - and kissed her temple. "I don't know, hon. But, whatever we do," he said, leaning back slightly to hold her face, "we do it together."
The sound of yelling made him smile slightly. "I'm not allowed in. Tread carefully." He kissed El's forehead and pulled away to open the door for her.

Without Harry, she was going to have to do even more to keep the witch contained. Her arm was shaking as the tears fell. She couldn't do it.
The witch was going to get out because she wasn't strong enough.
