There was a brief silence and just as quickly as it came, Erica's anger was gone. She stood and crossed the room, eyeing Jonah and Reno critically. "Any casualties today?"

"And yourselves?"she siad to them.
"Yes, two. Reno over there and Sam. Sam got careless and one of the Crowing got to him, though I bandaged his arm and did what you told me to do incase something like that ever happened." he said as he walked over to Sam.
"Hold out your arm" he said giving a soft smile. He knew that Sam might get mad at him for this, but he cared for him and it was the right thing to do.

'Ahhhh that was good.'
She smiled to herself and opened the door to her cupboard. As she 'slept' standing up she didn't really need a lot of space so she'd consented to having a cupoard. There was some sort of commotion coming from down the hall and Rea could hear Erica giving one of her famous lectures. Rea pouted. That meant she'd missed something fun.
'Hey guys!'
Reno, Sam and Johah were all standing around with Erica and Sam had a bandage on his arm.
'Didn't move fast enough huh Sam?'
She smiled at him, teasing but at the same time worried. The Crowing could leave nasty marks. She'd once got a whole chunk of skin scraped off. Rea winced at the thought.
'What did I miss?'

"How was your sleep?" he said wondering if she ever dreamed of anything.

'It was black.'
Her shut down mode really did shut her down like she didn't exist but for some reason it had stopped bothering her.
'I can't believe I missed a trip downtown! Is that why Sam's all beat up?'
She looked over at Sam and raised an eyebrow.

"C'mon, lets go to your room, you need some rest, we all do. I'll get you something to eat on the way ok" he said as he pulled Sams arm as they headed back to the rooms. "Go ahead, I'll make sure to get your favorites" he said as he stepped into the food court. He was sure that he would be able to mend the wound, atleast enough to the point where his body would do the rest.

"I know" he said as he just turned around just in time so that Sam wouldn't see the worried expression on his face. He tried to cover it as fast as possible. He closed his eyes to take off his shades to rub his eyes. No matter how bad he wanted to open them it was impossible without getting hurt. He placed the shades back on before getting the food. He grabbed as much as he could of what Sam like and took it back to the table.
'There you go" he said as he made sure it wouldn't fall. "Im gonna go ahead and go to the room, I umm got....to sharpen my katanas. Yup got the sharpen them" he said as he walked out of the food court and into the hallway. It was a short walk to the sleeping quarters of the Suffering. It was one of the places that everyone tried to avoid. Just in case of the Suffering went out of control they wouldn't put the others in harms way.
He opened the door to his room and walked in. Everything was custom made because of his eyesight. For him everything seemed normal, but for the rest it looked like a pitch black cave with not single light of it. He walked into the restroom and took off his coat and shirt. He turned around and looked in the mirror at his back. It was a big "X" scar on his back. Just by looking at it was painful.

He took his time walking up the steps, grabbing his swords so that it wouldn't make to much racket hitting against the wall. When he reached the door he opened it to see the sky, the stars shining as if it were alive and each calling to him. His troubles went away with the stars. He took a few more steps and noticed that someone was there. His instinct reached for the handle of the katana but before he pulled it out completely he noticed it was Sam.
"You startled me" he said as he sat next to him.
"I just wish I could have one in the grasp of my hands" he said as he opened his palm.

"Ready my bike, I'm leaving in a few" he stood silent as the scientist spoke back.
"I really don't care if she gave me permission or not, this is why we were created is it not? Besides the night is my specialty, so have it ready in 5" he said as he pressed the button which ended the conversation. He was best during night, it was one of the upper hands he had against crowlings. He sprinted back to his room, which only took a couple of second, and grabbed his bow.
His arrows were ready to pierce some crowling and his katanas ready to slash anything that came in its path. He knew some of his kin might get mad since they were supposed to hunt in two. But tonight Jonah felt like breaking the rules. After all he was one of them. He mounted his motorcycle and drove off into the darkness. He took his shades off, it was almost as if having heat vision, but hard to explain.
