A little pleased that Anastasia approached, and relieved that she hadn't broken any plans, Cassandra managed a smile. As she asked about what happened, Cassie looked away and was silent a moment. 

[color=f6989d]"I don't really know. One minute I was with Reily and Patrica the next...the next we heard screams from the camp and ran back...the wolf was there...it attacked and...and I must have got my hand up in time, it tore that to pieces, and I guess mauled my chest as well. I saw it go after someone else but I couldn't do anything, I couldn't do anything and...and...I don't know"[/color]

She swallowed and closed her eyes tight but soon they opened almost with a snap, looking to the door at the approach of footsteps, and sighing softly when Vanessa entered. [color=f6989d]"Can't it wait? I..."[/color] but it was too late, Vanessa already picked her up like she was nothing but a sack of feathers and Cassandra have a surprised yelp. She was relieved to see everyone, and even more so that Gloria followed.  

As Vanessa spoke, Cassie couldn't help but feel like it was some sort of sick practical joke. She was about to say that it wasn't funny and that she was going to go back to her room Gloria laid a hand on her shoulder. And there was something...half heard...half remembered...[color=f6989d]"No offense, but you suck at telling people news." [/color] she flinched as a wolf howl seemed to echo across the hospital, almost sounding...frustrated. [color=f6989d]"life...life is meant to be lived, not spent wondering. I survived what she have been two fatal incidents. So I suppose I'm meant to be here and if that means I have to believe what you are saying...then it's a small price to pay for being alive and for being given the chance to experience everythin life has to offer"[/color]

She looked to Gloria, who just always seemed to know things, who didn't feel at all freaked about what had been said, who seemed to be standing there quite calmly. Just a pillar of acceptance. She hadn't run away. Why was she here? Maybe Cassie should stop wondering that. The world was a strange and wonderful place. With strange and wonderful people. 

She looked back to Vanessa. [color=f6989d]"I suppose that's why it feels like my injuries are on fire. And the uncomfortable sensation of the wounds healing."[/color]
