028 - [Action/Voice]

[outofplaceklutz]

Okay, here I go. Wish me luck.

[She steps through the portal, and there's a definite splash only moments later before Bella finds herself crawling out of the lake cold and wet. Looking around, it's easy to figure out that she's still in Luceti.]

Baaa. [Pause. What was that sound that just came out of her mouth? She tries to speak again] Baaaaaaaa

[So Rose is just lounging around in the house when she hears some weird sounds over the journals. Wait...isn't that Bella?]

What are you still doing here?

[outofplaceklutz]

[Yes, it most certainly is. Of course, Bella's still trying to speak up, and she's concentrating very hard to try and make sure she speaks right, but it's no avail.]

B-B-B-Baaaaa Baa Baaaa B-Baaa.

[Yes, she's stuttering because of her chattering teeth. She's COLD.]

[pileof_ashes]

[...If she doesn't know better she'd think this is a prank call. She is very amused, once she deduces what happens.]

So, are they making everyone who crosses the portal talk like sheep, or is it just you? [The fact that Bella can't answer back makes it even funnier.]

[outofplaceklutz]

[She may not be able to answer back, but I'm sure Rose can see her expression right now is not a happy one. And come on Rose, can't you see she's cold and wet. Look, her lips are turning blue.]

B-B-Baaa Baa.

[pileof_ashes]

[Have a sigh.]

I suppose you need help.

[outofplaceklutz]

[Help would be nice.]

B-B-B-B-Baaaaa.

[pileof_ashes]

[Rose doesn't bother replying. She just takes off in a run around the village, and eventually (a few minutes, give or take), she finds Bella shivering by one of the lakes.]

Cold?

[outofplaceklutz]

[She's just going to give Rose a "Ya think?" look. Of course, she's still shivering, her complexion is much paler then usual, and her lips are blue. Not to mention, she's numb throughout her whole body. And...is that ice hanging from her hair? No, the wind today certainly isn't helping with this situation either.]

[pileof_ashes]

[Yeah, definitely cold.]

You need to get back to the house. [Two options: either have her carry you, or walk in your condition.]

[outofplaceklutz]

[Bella's far too cold to care at this point, but odds are she'll be too cold to make it back to the house at some point during this journey, so sadly, Rose my be better off just carrying her.]

[pileof_ashes]

[She's done it before - but that was when Bella was pregnant with Nessie. This is different and far more unpleasant, but she doesn't complain as she picks Bella up and runs back to the house.]

[outofplaceklutz]

[Bella's not gonna complain much either cause there really isn't much choice in the matter. Though she could really go for some body hear right now. Sadly, Rose has none.]

[pileof_ashes]

[Too bad, hmm? Well, luckily, they get to the house in mere seconds. Rose puts you down on a random sofa and actually has the courtesy to light a fire.]

[outofplaceklutz]

[Yay, fire. Bella is totally using what's left of her energy and grabbing any blankets that might be laying around the sofa too.]

[pileof_ashes]

[Whoops, Rose totally forgot about the blankets. She is gone for a second and comes back with dry clothes, dumping them on Bella's lap. She is so not going to help her change.]

[outofplaceklutz]

[Don't worry, Bella doesn't want help changing anyway. She can do that much on her own, so as soon as Rose turns around or walks away and nobody is looking, Bella will be changing into her dry clothes. But right now, she is giving Rosalie a "thank you" type look.]
