The air was heavy. Hot, pressing down on her airways like smoke. It smelt like incense. That was the first thing Bobbi was aware of. The second was the pounding of her blood against the walls of her skull, the pain it caused on the edge of her consciousness. The third was somebody holding her hand.
She opened her eyes to a wooden ceiling and Skye’s relieved face. “Hey.” She rasped.
“Hey.” Skye smiled and, taking a wet cloth from somewhere she couldn’t see, gently wiped her face. Then she gave her some water. No bruises, Bobbi noted distantly. How long had she been out? Days? More?
Throat soothed, the blonde still couldn’t utter more than a few words. “What? Where?"
“Afterlife. After the fight at the cabin….” Skye clammed up and stroked her thumb over the back of her hand. “You were hurt and I... It was my fault. So I asked them to bring you here. It’s a safe place. They took care of you and helped me with my powers... We’re safe here.”
Skye was with her. Bobbi could believe that. She gave her a smile, her hand a squeeze, and let the darkness take her under.
