Setting
Jamie felt a shoe suddenly planted in her back and she flew forward. The blonde woman opened her parasol so that it was between her and Luto and she ducked behind it. Suddenly the blonde woman was gone, her parasol fell to the floor. The second right after Luto could feel thousands of tiny cuts all over her body.
Dani's feet were covered in tiny cuts that hurt like an infinite amount of papercuts. Despite that, she stood up and limped her way over to Luto. "I'm sorry I was of no use in this fight. She surprised me and the pain hit me all at once and... I went into shock."

Jamie approached slowly as Dani struggled back to her feet, "I got caught as well... Twice."
Dani raised her hand, "Shut up. I'm the leader and I failed everyone here. I'm going to do better. No more losing." She looked at Luto, "I won't fail you anymore."
She was panting, she shakily looked at Dani and Jamie, blood dripped from her nose, she couldnt move, it felt like her limbs were 9000 pounds. She was trembling, her eyes struggled to stay open, and blood dripped from her mouth. This was the symptoms of VIKA
Jamie put her index finger on Luto's throat, "Her pulse is racing. Her heart feels like it's going into arrest."
Dani shook Luto again, "Hey! What's wrong? Don't just leave me like this." Tears welled up in Dani's eyes, she didn't want it to happen again.
Jamie watched the two and bit her lip, "Leave me alone with her and I'll see what I can do." Dani turned back with a ferocious glare and stared Jamie down. Shaking her head, Jamie pushed Dani aside, "She'll die if you don't let me."
Dani stared for a few seconds longer before letting go of Luto and standing up. She stalked away and snarled over her shoulder, "Dont fail me."
Jamie rolled her eyes and after making sure no one was watching her, she grabbed one of the pills out of her pocket and jammed it down Luto's throat.
She had her hair fall out of her face, Jamie just saved Luto's life, if she had no pills on her then she would have died right there and then..
Dani stood outside, her cuts starting to clot up and scab over. She frowned and loaded new bullets into her gun's magazine. "Just five more stupid days." She shook her head and headed back inside.
It was slightly after noon, but sundown was still a ways off. There was still time to celebrate the day.
Luto wondered how long she was unconscious for, it felt like a second. "...sorry i never told you..."
Jamie gave Luto a death stare. Her gaze said, 'Don't you dare.' Putting Jamie's hands in her pocket, she started to walk out of the warehouse.
Jamie stood outside, looking up at the afternoon sky. She grabbed one of the pills in her pockets and popped it into her mouth. Only three pills remained in her pocket. They made her feel good like she was young. All of the weight that had been on her back was suddenly gone.
Luto had been learning how to be gentle and calm. Luto stood back up "Can i do anything for you?" Luto had already gone back to trying to be helpful and carefree.
"I think... I need to lay down." Dani curled up on a spare yoga mat, her mind racing. She imagined the blonde-haired girl coming back, and the pain she might inflict yet again. Then she saw Alphonse, standing in the shadows of daytime, ripping his way through her friends. Even though it was still light out, and even though people could still see and hear her, Dani started to cry.
Jamie began to wander the dockyards. She'd seen one friend killed, and Luto was on some sort of experimental drug. Alphonse would be back, and she felt helpless.
Luto's shadow frowned, "Dani is playing you. It's not to late to choose the right side."
"Think it over." In a blur, they were both gone.
"Im sorry Eliza....Im so so sorry...If only i was there before all this..." she frowned, looking down at the ground
