Rayne didn't always respond to emergencies. Usually, because she had got burned too many times, igniting arguments over her heavy-handed techniques. Or because she was resting. When a mass murderer got loose and began acting out a bloodbath, however, she did. Even if, like now, it had amounted to guarding the stairs.

"Huh...?"

Crying tears of blood didn't necessarily mean anything to her. Someone could have hit their skull, for all she knew. But couple that with an ability to see auras, plus someone going mad over Tony and...

SCOWL.

Silently, Rayne pondered forcing this one to wait, just on principle, but that would serve no purpose.

"That way," she gestured with an annoyed nod of head and let the creature pass.

Fucking vampires...

He gave her a desperately thankful look, and blew by. Nicki was on the floor by Tony in a second, his fingers twitching just above his skin. He looked utterly insane, and he didnt blink. He let out another scream, just as loud, wild and painful.

He didn’t know what to do, he bit his wrist and tried to get it in his mouth, bring him back. But he was already dead, and no matter how much smearing and crying he wasn’t moving. So Nicki picked him up sloppily, slipping alittle on his first attempt, falling back down with the limp body. He paused to hug Tony like he might have hurt him during the fall, and tried again.

Once he had him up, he fluttered back up the stairs and past the guard, to Tonys room and the TV fort. He laid him down on the floor, and curled up beside him holding, his arm and staring blankly off. It would be ok, it had to be.

After a few hours, the nail in Tony's eye slid out, his neck healed itself, and he snapped back to life with a sudden gasp.

By that time, Tony was propped up against the side of the fort, with a new shirt on, and a large hat. One limp hand held a cup of noodles, and a a few spilt on the floor. Nicki giggled, “Haha. S-silly Tony, you..you spilt the Ramen” Nicks face was streaked with dried blood tears, but had successfully jumped over the hurdle to super insane a few hours back. Tony wasn’t dead. Haha! How silly. Look at him eating noodles with him! Everything was fine!

So when he actually came back to life, Nicki let out a surprised yelp and jumped back, wide eyed, noodles spilt everywhere

It occurred to Nicki that he hadn’t actually played much in the few days he was here. There was too much confusion. So he happily played for a while, just going nuts with his crazy notes, that were sometimes sad, but he masked them with happier notes. He stopped very abruptly “I’ll get you more food if you need it, I heard people were gathering supplies, I can take some-“ Nicki stopped and made a face, he hadn’t stopped to think about the fact that he hadn’t eaten in over a day “If the cold box isn’t working, will my blood go bad?”

[tadwizard]

"I don't need it now. I can get some when they're serving it." Then Nicki mentioned the blood. "Yeah...if you need blood after the stored blood goes bad, you can get some from me, but you'll have to be really careful, okay?"

[beyondxtime]

He looked warily at the idea, but he could live off just alittle each night. “If you’re sure. I’ll only take a tiny bit, like before” Everything seemed like he could make it work without risking anyone else finding Tony’s Ramens, or him dying again. At the moment, he was still pretty sure every cold draft of wind was trying to destroy him

[tadwizard]

"Good. I'll be able to spare a little bit like that if this doesn't last too long."

Tony grinned, grabbing one of the playbooks titled 'Macbeth', opening it, and going over. "That will be ere the set of sun."

His neck hurt, his eye hurt, but this was helping distract him. He seemed a little off, and he stumbled slightly getting up. "Maybe I should rest more before trying this."
