[b][i] – Kathy[/i][/b]

“……..” She had seen it coming, but when Zivon actually fell asleep she wanted to knock her head against a wall. Kathy looked to Oona for help, but she seemed a little dazed at the moment. She was just about to start dragging Zivon across the floor when a familiar voice startled her. “?!” Turning around, she saw Crash coming closer. [i]‘I can’t believe it. I know I was focused on Zivon, but I didn’t think I’d lose complete aware of my surroundings. That’s no good, I need to get a better grip on myself.’[/i] Hearing Crash’s question, she stopped and stared at him for a moment. [i]‘This really reminds me of the party. Crash’s state, Zivon’s wavering consciousness, and Oona nearby… If I slap him and cut my hand again it’ll be a near-perfect reproduction.’[/i] Despite everything going on around them, a small smile found its way onto her face. However, it disappeared just as quickly as an eagle passed overhead spreading something around them, and she re-focused herself to the current situation.

Momentarily leaving Zivon on the floor, Kathy got up and stood in front of Crash. “… Yeah. We’ll be fine.” Forcing a thin smile onto her face, she reached up and attempted to flick his forehead. “I’ve already told you this, but I’ll say it again since you don’t seem to get it: worry about yourself first. Zivon’s going to be fine.” There were a lot of other things she wanted to say. Like, offering to go with him, or maybe even just telling him to stay. Asking for help moving Zivon seemed like a good idea, but she also dismissed that knowing if she intended to stay behind to help everyone out then he was probably not going to be the last student she’d somehow have to drag over to the barrier. Waving off one idea after another, she wondered what to say when the ground suddenly shook again. Her eyes opened wide in surprise, doing her best to hold her footing. As soon as the shaking stopped, she looked and Crash and said, “Go, now. If you take any more time you might not be any help at all.”
