Famous Last Words [Closed]
Character(s): Adobe
Content: Adobe frantically looks for Katsu, and finds something disturbing
Setting: Outside the hospital
Warnings: Character death. :<
The first two floors yielded nothing. The longer she walked, the more her heart raced, the more her chest clutched in fear of what she'd find.
Adobe almost turned back around and headed upstairs, pondering that perhaps the boy had gone for higher ground for whatever reason he might have, but something kept tugging her towards the bottom. Instinct was running high, like the electric buzzing of power lines in her head, and an unseen hand taking her by the wrist and dragging her along in seemingly aimless directions.
She wasn't sure how long she'd been gone from Kelly and Ares, but eventually her meandering path brought her not only downstairs to the broken lobby again, but it had her looking outside, poking her head around the rubble that was the giant gaping hole in the wall, a frown tugging her lips tightly.
"Katsu...? You out here?" she called, getting nothing but a mournful, short lived wind in reply.
Forcing a few frizzy strands behind her ears, she dared a step, then another, boots crunching on debris. Further outside, but still nothing caught her in way of sound or sight. Just the same old lonely city with it's living creatures hiding somewhere in the shadows for the time being.
Worrying at last about her own safety, her side arm was removed, held down by her hip as she shuffled and strafed close to the wall, eventually coming to the corner where finally something did get her attention. Motion, faint and almost scrabbling.
"... hello?" she tried again, inching her way near it nervously, "Katsu? That you, kiddo? If something's wrong... now would be the time to tell me."
