Sometimes a man goes to slay his demons

Who: Trafalgar Law, Itachi Uchiha, Adele LeBlanc, Gai Tsutsugami, others
What: The fallout from a failed(?) kidnapping
When: 28th of January ongoing
Where: House 22 moving to the Battle Dome
Summary: For every victory a price must be paid, and sometimes the currency is in blood. It’s an arrangement Law’s long accepted; one can’t move ahead without sacrifice after all. But in winning this battle, the cost might not fall on him alone.
Rating: Mature

One of them had hung back.

The world greyed, tunnelled in, and consciousness collapsed, thoughts spiralling down, down, down. One of them had hung back, while the rest had come… come… co…m…e…

Sway. Sway. There is soft moaning. Where is it? Him? Is he making sounds? He should be silent.

Sway. Sway. There is fire on him. Where is it? Fire on his back. His wing. There is fire but no flames. Torn clothing, mangled flesh. Feathers. B-L-O-O-D.

Pain. Blood. Sometimes his vision goes red. His body is… crunchy sometimes, swollen other places, under his careful fingers. Trauma. Broken ribs. Internal bleeding. Down, down, down - look down. Darts in thigh. Shiny.

His head hurts.

Concussion. DRUGGED.

One of them had hung back while the rest had come. Why, why, why? Could it have been scared? No… droid. Sleek droid. Shiny and new. Droids don’t feel fear. It had watched. But it had a brain. Do droids with brains feel fear?

Something hit him. His thigh. Fight we...nt… bad then… can’t think. "… help."

Help.

Very bad. Can’t… THINK. CAN’T REMEMBER. Lightning, parts flying… all smeared and twisted… CAN’T REMEMBER. Grappling. Fabric tearing. Wings exposed.

Agony and the world breaking.

He broke the world. He broke it and the droid left.

All wrong.

Wrong.

T-E-S-T?

(for whom?)

Maybe. Bad.

He doesn’t know.



He broke the world… the forest --- didn’t he? Where was he? This was his house. His front door. Did he walk?

Knock, knock.

True enough. For you or I to take on droids in packs is one thing.

If someone like Adele were too, however, they'd know something was up.

[He smiles ruefully. A sad truth.]

How long are you in for?

Yea, that is good luck.

Two weeks isn't too bad, though. Better than the last time I was in here.

Not likely you'll miss anything. Except Valentine's Day.

[Luke snorts a little at the word, remembering his embarrassment the year before.]

Yea. Wish I could avoid it myself.

[Though it did start this relationship with Ami, he mirrors Law's feelings there. It's trouble.]
thefinaljedi: (No)

Ami and I made plans to go camping, hopefully that will work.

[It won't, but he doesn't know it yet.]

There are. It'll be nice. We've not had much time to ourselves since Christmas, with...well...the goings on around town.

We'll make time, when we can. Don't worry.

[He offers a half smile]

Believe me, I wouldn't want to miss a minute with her more than necessary.

You do. It'd be good for you.

[Luke gives Law a quick, roguish grin.]

In fact, call it doctor's orders.

[Luke rises]

Best not to. And I think I'll let you get back to your rest for now. If you like, I'll come by tomorrow with a board game or something.

Chess, but I'm open to learning.

Alright. I'll see you tomorrow, then.

[With a nod of his head, Luke takes his leave]
