Pripyat: Day 5 - Post mortem - Miria

[prettyincrime]

[At first, everything was fuzzy. Slowly, Miria sat up, her head aching. However, that was the least of her worries; someone had just killed her! In a panic, she stumbles to her feet, oblivious to the blood on her face, and runs out of the alley way. She doesn't know where she's going, but she was freezing cold, scared, and plus whoever just killed

[Edward has noticed that she wasn't in the room where he thought she was sleeping in and decided to go look for her.

Once outside the church, he felt something was off. Way off. Something was wrong and he felt it. He moved through the street and toward the source where he felt the pain.]

Miria?

[His voice wasn't a shout. It was in a normal tone but the weight was there that he was definitely worried. He knew that running was only going to make it worse if she were to physically bump into him again so he kept his hands down at his sides and walked briskly in the dark.]

[At first she had no idea where to run to - she just knew she was the most scared she had been since she came to the Manor, since she'd come to Pripyat. She didn't know why anyone would want to kill her; she hadn't done anything to hurt anyone, or at least that she could think of.

However, as she rounded a corner, she runs into a tall, dark figure (Edward). She lets out a panicked shriek as she falls back]

L-leave me alone--!

[shy_blade]

[Edward's heart sank and lowered his head when he heard her yell out those words. His face showed a mixture of fear, concern and pain.]

I'm sorry.

[He was about to turn and do as she commanded.]

[prettyincrime]

[As soon as he spoke, she realized who it was]

No, wait!

[She shakily gets to her feet, and steps forward, hugging him tightly, tears starting to fall down her face]

I-I'm sorry, I'm sorry - I didn't know it was you

[Conan looks up from where he was inspecting the ground to see the girl running off-that was suspicious.

...

Wait. Wasn't that? No way. He was just sure that she had been-and definitely in no condition to be up and running around.]

Onesan!

[He decides to get up and follow after her-might as well get to the bottom of this.]

[prettyincrime]

[After a few minutes of running, Miria stumbles and falls, her breathing shallow and fast, her expression scared and confused. When she see's Conan following her, she goes to get back up, but realizes that he's just a child..]

[always1truth]

[What harm can a seven year old do, right? He rushes over to her when she falls-weird or not, he was going to help if he could.]

Ne, are you all right?

[prettyincrime]

N-no! No I'm not! There's someone dangerous around here, they just killed me!!

[She's blissfully ignorant of how weird that sounds..]
