What the Hell Happened?
When Dusk woke up all she saw was whiteness, as well as the darkness surrounding her. Although that was hardly her worry as she began to blink and pain, it felt as if a sheet was covering her entire body. What happened to Acair anyhow? Where was Zuzana and where was she? The thoughts raced in her mind but Dusk was forced to think about nothing else except the horrible pounding pain in her head. Soon Dusk slowly began to sit up, rubbing her head in horrible pain as she grumbled, the light of what seemed to be a gas station made her eyes sting and hard to see. Then she looked down and noticed that there was in fact a sheet covering her body, and it was soaked in blood. Not to mention when she placed her hand down to where her head was laying, she felt a small wet puddle most likely being her blood. "Dammit did Zee-Zee miscalculate and shoot me instead? Guess her recoshaying ability was all talk." Dusk found herself laughing as soon as she said it, a small smile on her face as she simply took the sheet that covered her and placed it in the small puddle of blood. Finally, when she managed to sit up properly and rub her eyes, she glanced up only to see Zuzana, staring at her, for once her eyes were wide open, and her jaw was dropped.
Thank the gods this car was soundproof. "DUSK!? WHAT THE FUCK!? HOW ARE YOU ALIVE!?" Zuzana's voice was ear-piercing but Dusk simply waited as the woman threw the car into drive and began to get back onto what seemed to be the final back road to the mansion. "Huh? Oh uh....sorry yeah I have an ability that makes it to where I can't really die." She mumbled it as she rubbed right between her eyes were the source of the pain was. "I'm guessing you shot me between the eyes?" Her voice was calm as Zuzana simply nodded, she could tell Zuzana wanted answers. "Okay, I can explain. You see, I can't really die from injuries like this, as you clearly just saw. It normally takes time depending on the wound, some can take up to a year, or some even a few seconds. In order to keep the ruse up though because I don't like people knowing. Any time I get an injury, I get some bandages, cover it with some of my blood by cutting my arm or hand, and then place it over where the wound was, as well as fresh bandages when I don't feel like wearing my old blood. My brother does this too, I taught him to do it and by the sight of it, he did it well. You beat his head into the point of blood and breaking didn't you?" Was all she said and Zuzana nodded, seeming at a loss for words. "Yeah you can rip those bandages off his head and he would have been fine, but more importantly. Where did he run off to?" Dusk finally asking her most important question despite the pain in her head.
Zuzana stayed quiet for a bit before she spoke, her voice calm and even. "To the other side of the woods I think, but I don't know when I saw you got shot and thought you dead, I stopped chasing him and ran to you," Zuzana said it calmly but she could tell she was a bit angry at the moment and Dusk didn't really blame her. "Sorry for not telling you sooner, but some people that I've told before have tried to kill me in many ways thanks to it, so I try not to say anything, no matter the person, but I guess it's time you know anyhow. My brother is the same way as I've told you." Dusk said it calmly as she held her chin, trying to think where her brother would be headed next. "Later on I want to head back, it may not turn up much but," Dusk mumbled it but when Zuzana spoke, breaking Dusk away from her thoughts. "You know. I've never ONCE seen you cry in all my life. Why now all of a sudden?" Zuzana's sight not even looking away from the road. Dusk suddenly smiling gently. "Ah...well. Since I haven't seen my brother in so many years I just....couldn't help my self. I love him more than anything so I couldn't help it plus...over the years any time I cried, he was there to cheer me up. Soon it just turned into his weakness. Ironically though it only works when I do it." Her voice was calm as she sighed and rubbed the bridge of her nose, the non-existent bullet hole still aching, not to mention the back of her head.
"Also, how long until we get home? I really need to sleep, I woke up too soon, and when I do I can feel myself healing and it really hurts like a bitch sometimes." Her voice was shallow at this point, ready to take a nap in her own soaked blood sheet, parts of her hair no longer brown and instead had small blond parts, as well as one huge blond chunk in the back of her skull, meaning she'd have to re-dye her hair. "Oh, I forgot to ask something," Zuzana said it as she glanced up in the review mirror, Dusk meeting her stare. "Some of you're hair is blond, why won't it stay dyed?" Her voice was seemingly curious. "Well, that's beca-" Her voice was cut off when Dusk was nearly lunched through the front seat and through the windshield of the car, but barely managed to avoid it by gripping the sides of the car seats. Zuzana not flying forward thanks to her seatbelt, the airbag surprisingly not going off but Dusk quickly looked behind her through the back windshield. All during the process, she heard something, hopefully not someone flying over the hood, the roof of the car, and finally the trunk of the car. "Shine your backlights." She said it calmly and when Zuzana flipped a small switch in the car, there was a man standing there, holding what seemed to be knives and letting out a loud groan of pain and anger. "BACK UP BACK UP!" She shouted it, not wanting to deal with this as even Zuzana seemed to have a moment of panic and even screamed, possibly to mock her as she threw the car into reverse, the car bumping twice as the wheels ran over the man. "FORWARD! MAKE SURE HE'S DEAD!" Dusk shouted it. "ON IT!" Zuzana quickly shouted it back, both of them having a small panicking moment in the car as she sped the car forward. It bumping twice again, by the time they were ready to drive off, Dusk calmly peaked out of the window, shining a flashlight at the now bloody man.
"WHAT THE FUCK!?" Was all he screamed at them, clearly beyond angry as hell. "DRIVE, DRIVE!" Dusk shouted it and before Zuzana could fully slam her foot on the gas pedal, the man slashed one of their tires, Zuzana starting to make a small donut and during the processes, there was another small bump as they ran over the poor man one more time before he slashed that tire as well, leaving them stuck in this position. "Get you're gun ready, I've got my knives." She said it calmly, throwing knives at the ready as Zuzana had her gun aimed and ready to go, the passenger seat suddenly shattering as the man's fist was through the glass. "GET OUT OF THE CAR!" His voice was filled with seething hatred, Zuzana aiming her gun at the man's head, right as she went to pull the trigger, Dusk watched as the gun was simply sliced in half as if the gun were nothing but a stick of butter. Dusk soon kicked her back door open and jumped out, blades at the ready. Dusk blinked in a bit of pain when she felt three painful burns seep into her shoulder, the bone seeming to split just for the man's knives. She didn't stop as she took advantage of this and wrapped her arm around the man's arm. Easily breaking the strong grip he had and before she knew it, she slammed the man to the ground, a knife at his throat, his knives deep into her shoulder.
"Stop moving!" Dusk barked it as Zuzana came out, a flashlight attached to another revolver pistol she had in the car, shining the light on the man's face. "Wait Dusk! Is.....is that you, Jamie?" Zuzana mumbled it as she slowly lowered the gun and disconnected the flashlight to keep it on the man's face. Dusk glanced up as she held the poison, every time the man moved she could feel a horrific burning in her shoulder. "Zuzana?" The man's voice was suddenly calm and seeming to be in shock. Hearing Zuzana's name from someone else's lips aside from her own made Dusk let go of the man, ripping his claws out of her shoulder. "Jamie? Who the hell is this guy, Zuzana? He obviously knows you're name?" She mumbled it calmly as Zuzana knelt down and started to help the man up to his feet. "This is Jamie, a man I used to date before he left for the war! Jamie, I thought you died!" Zuzana said it calmly, Dusk looking the man over when she noticed the way he stood, not to mention the "knives" she thought she saw, slowly began to sink back into the man's fists. Only one person has this ability and she suddenly smirked, it being her old war buddy Logan, the one and only wolverine. Why would Zuzana call him Jamie though? Was that his actual name or something? Eh, she still planned to call him Logan anyhow so why did it matter? "Oh, neat well....sorry for running you over." Dusk chuckled gently as she began to stand, reaching into her pouch and pulled out some bandages when the two were to busy staring at each other.
She began to bandage her shoulder to keep up the allusion as the man spoke. "One time? You ran me over fucking four times!" Logan suddenly barked it and Dusk couldn't help but laugh her ass off. "Yeah sorry about that, I'm not a good driver and Zuzana was following my bad driving advice." That was all she said before she went to sit on the hood of the car. Logan sighed as he calmly walked over to the small pool of blood they created, Zuzana even smiling. "I'll call for another car, try not to kill each other." Was all Zuzana said before she pulled out a phone and began to call someone, it up to her ear as she walked away while Dusk glanced over at Logan, Logan looking over at her. "You look somewhat familiar but I can't place it," Logan saying it with a small smile but Dusk simply waved it off. "I get that a lot. Anyways, do you wanna come with me and Zee-Zee?" As she said it Logan looked a bit confused as he looked to Zuzana but seemed to just shake his head and keep his thoughts to himself. "Yeah, I'd like that, after all, you did run me over more than once." Logan saying it with a small smile, Dusk smiling as Zuzana began to walk back, her phone away. "Car covered, now we just need to wait." That was all Zuzana said as Dusk sighed and calmly laid on the hood. Closing her eyes to try and sleep for a bit while Zuzana and Logan's light chit-chat felt more like background noise that she ended up falling asleep to.
