[act five; chapter eight - pure madness]
Thalia Grace looked about ready to kill. When Andromeda walked back into the Plaza, the daughter of Zeus nearly pounced on her out of anger and worry.
"Where have you been, Storm?" She asked immediately, but slipped an arm around the redhead's waist to support her nonetheless.
Andromeda shrugged, but winced at the pain in her shoulder. "Sorry. I had to, um, take care of something."
Thalia pulled away as they sat down and looked at the daughter of Dionysus carefully. Her eyes were bloodshot and her hands wouldn't stop shaking, as well as there being a small amount of drying blood on her skin. The raven haired girl knew something had happened, so she kept her words short and simple. "What happened?"
Andromeda looked down at her lap, twisting Mania on her finger. "Eliza's dead."
Thalia, however, already knew that. When she noticed Andromeda had disappeared, she followed but left when she saw Eliza Taylour go in the same direction, nearly undetected. She had a feeling only the Storm girl would be the one returning.
"How are you?"
"Tired. Alright, sad, angry, but very, very tired."
Thalia chuckled and threw an arm around her, the two relaxing for just a moment. "Yeah, same here. It'll get better after a while, but for now, if you ever need to talk, I'm here."
"Thanks, Sparky."
