To say that Rina was a wreck would have been an understatement. She had gone to the school, but she had not stayed like most of the others because she knew pointless when she saw it. There was not a single thing that she could do for Darklis or any of the others and so she had gone home to curl up on her bed and lose herself in dark thoughts that not even Trouble could pull her out of. Thoughts of what had happened to people in other places where she could not get to. When they had been closed off from the outside world. Taken away from her. Out of her reach. Gone forever. Taken and never given back. Her family. Her brother. Her niece. Her nephews. Her-
Caelia.
Rina's head snapped up and Trouble went tumbling to the bed from where the small ball of fluff had been digging her claws into her scalp, trying to get her attention this time by drawing blood. That had not worked - none of the scratching had and Rina looked a mess from her efforts - but one of her wards who was still here was in need of her. Darklis was gone, somewhere she could not sense, though she knew that she was in danger and it was driving her to near madness that she could not go to her, but Caelia was still here and in an instant she had the dazed and mumbling Trouble in her hand, her wings spread and the window open to fly out. She should have closed it behind her, but something told her that she would be making it back before Darklis did. 'Stop it,' Trouble's plea was a plaintive mew from where she was curled against Rina's chest, but the angel could not respond because... she was trying to focus on Caelia and the boost to her speed that came from being called had her arriving at the apartment she did not even recognize in no time at all. A tug at a window revealed it was unlocked and she slipped inside, Trouble in one hand and her wings still out. Hopefully Caelia would not be too disturbed by the sight of the scratches on her arms and face, Rina had not even felt them so she had not thought to heal herself.
"I think that you're in need of me, Caelia? If I heard correctly?" Please need me... I need someone to need me that I can go to.
