Nemesis and Hurricane's Ideal World: Session 2
[The sky above is a deep, unnatural crimson, filled with roiling clouds and creatures that are a sickly oil-slick black. They writhe and wriggle like something out of a Lovecraftian nightmare; they have entirely too many eyes, and entirely too many wings, and when they open their mouths, they have entirely too many teeth]
[Below them, the city of Tokyo is half-shattered; above the rooftops, mechanized suits the size of people hover in the air, darting in out of the chaos, laser blasts and explosions and wickedly sharp blades fighting tirelessly against the endless onslaught]
[Until finally, the last creature falls]
[All at once, civilians flood the streets of the city; the lights come on in all the buildings, which somehow have become whole again, safe and unharmed. A cheer goes up from the crowd. Overhead, a stunning fireworks display paints the night with light and color]
[And they all lived happily ever after]
[The end]
THE LONG-TERM WARD
[The doors lead to a dimly lit hallway reeking of antiseptic and far too familiar anxiety.]
[Metal plaques next to each door list names such as Yosano or Eze or Johnson. ]
[Save for the dull beep of machines, it is extremely, unnervingly quiet.]
[You don’t belong here yet. You should just TURN BACK.]

Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
If you get into trouble, don't make me knock you one later for being an idiot and not calling for us.
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
Don't think I said that. Just don't make me regret giving a damn about you.
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
You won't. Now get out of here. I'll catch up.

Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[A figure lies in the hospital bed, so swatched in bandages that it's impossible to make out many details. The heart-rate monitor beeps periodically, the pulse too slow]
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[There is a clipboard containing medical records by the foot of the bed]
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[ what have we got here. ]
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[She's in a coma, not exected to wake]
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[ going to leave this room and check out the next, eze. ]
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[Her hair is shorn short, and she's recovering from injuries, though the bandages aren't as extensive here]
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[ but also, he's going to set a hand on her arm. ] Excuse me, miss?
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[It indicates that she's been heavily sedated, and has been regularly, which probably explains why she doesn't wake]
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
Re: THE LONG-TERM WARD
[She has a chart, too; her heartrate is also entirely too slow]
