THIRTY|Chaos, Strife & Pain (II)

"3x23: Insatiable"

Yet again, once again hospitalized because of severe burns that hurt her the first time. "I did this?" Derek asked as she opened her eyes. Casey blinked at the sight of him as she reached for something on the bedside table.

Tye handed over a pen and paper to her as Casey wrote something down quickly, and she showed it to Derek.

"What the hell are you doing here?"

"I never meant to hurt you. I didn't even fully realize what I was doing Casey, I swear that I didn't mean it."

"Are you talking about the actions or the words?"

"I..."

"Sourwolf is at a loss for words? Who knew that all it would take is one of his oldest friends nearly burning to death... again."

"That's not funny..."

"And I am not laughing!" Casey tried to snap at him fiercely, but her voice broke down into a big bout of coughing and wheezing as her smoke inhalation got to her, as she was coughing like she was trying to cough up a lung.

Victoria's hand shot out and Casey inhaled, taking a sharp breath and Victoria's veins were turning black and the werelion was doing her best to take on as much pain as she could. Her eyes glowed gold and Casey watched her carefully, as Victoria shuddered and she let go.

"Can't take anymore." Victoria said and she shut her eyes, as the tremors from her taking the pain ceased and she was able to breathe again. "Not right now." She said and Casey sighed at the words.

"Casey..." Tye said and Casey glared over at him as he backpedaled right up, at the look at once. He tossed her another notepad and pen, as the other had run out.

"The Nogitsune was responsible for this, but he wore your face."

Derek looked at the words and then over his shoulder at Tye, who leaned against the wall. "She took in a lot of smoke... honestly, Casey, I still don't know how you got out of the handcuffs and chains." Tye said as Casey looked at him, before she moved up one of the sleeves of the hospital gown and she pointed at the tattoo. "A hunter first, especially when it comes to being trapped in a corner." Tye said as Casey nodded.

Casey wrote something down as she looked at them, as she turned the pad to face them.

"My grandmother is coming. She will bring other hunters, to see how I am. I suggest that you both leave, before she arrives." Casey's eyes were serious and there was pain in them too, as she pointed at the door with the notepad, as she continued to write. "They hunt those who hunt them. I will not tell them who did this, or they would kill you." Casey showed it to them as Tye looked at Derek.

"I'm going to see what is left." Tye murmured and Casey's eyes softened a little, as she wrote something down again.

"Be careful. They might have questions... Direct them to me." Casey pointed at herself and Tye nodded at the action. "I'm a better liar than you."

"No shit." Tye remarked and Casey looked up, as the door opened as Talia walked into the room and raced to her mom quickly as Casey let out a croaked laugh at the sight of her daughter. Talia took Victoria's place, as Victoria walked after Tye.

Derek walked out of the room after Tye and his brother grabbed him by the collar, dragging him down the hallway and out of the hospital. "She's in the goddamn hospital, because of you!" Tye snapped as soon as they were outside as he had let Derek go.
