Unravel (1x1 w/ Jikkah)

[DarkMudkip]

"They'll keep you safe, Nana..." He said softly, "They won't find anything on me, if that's what you're so worried about..."

 

[Jikkah]

“No..!” She looked like she was absolutely devastated. “No... I won’t..! Motochika if I tell them whats happening I won’t be able to see you..!”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Not true...you'll be able to see me fine.." He told her gently.

 

[Jikkah]

“But what if they have someone watch me..! Motochika I don’t want to risk you! I don’t want to put you in danger, and for what..!?” She wiped away her tears, sniffling softly.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"You won't, you big worry wart.." He smiled, "I've laid low plenty good all my life from Doves...you think a couple more are gonna scare me away..?" He asked softly.

 

[Jikkah]

She shook her head, still wiping at her tears as she struggled not to cry. “I don’t want to be alone again.” She said quietly.

 

[DarkMudkip]

He cupped her cheek and shook his head, "You ain't gonna be, Nana..." He told her.

 

[Jikkah]

She nodded, putting her hand over his. “Ok.. I’ll do it... I’ll talk with them..” She nodded.

 

[DarkMudkip]

He rested his forehead against hers, "Thank you...I want you safe, more than anything.."

 

[Jikkah]

“I know.” She said softly, sniffling and squeezing his hand tightly.

 

[DarkMudkip]

He kissed her forehead before kissing her, mumbling how much he loved her.

 

[Jikkah]

Nana kissed him back, holding his hand tightly as the two sat in the room, talking softly through the night until Nana fell asleep.

 

[DarkMudkip]

He stayed with her a moment longer before quietly leaving. He had to get back, they would become angry if he didn't come back.

 

[Jikkah]

Nana was sad when she woke in the morning and Motochika was gone, but she expected no less, knowing both of their circumstances were difficult.

 

[DarkMudkip]

He would always visit her, though. They would be random points in the day, but he would come and see her.

 

[Jikkah]

Nana was recovering slowly, her physical condition still being monitored closely. She couldn’t look at any meat they brought her, the first few times vomiting at the sight, only able to manage down fruit and vegetables.

 

[DarkMudkip]

Thankfully, there were otherways to get protein in her, so replacing meat for now was no trouble. And a couple days later, as they said, Masamune and Kojurou were back.

 

[Jikkah]

Nana wasn’t comfortable with them being back, but knew they'd return; she had to tell them like Motochika told her too, but it didn’t feel right.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Please pardon his rude behaviour from last time. He will be more controlled with his questions." Kojurou told her gently.

 

[Jikkah]

Nana looked skeptical, nervous almost at the sight of them, but she didn’t ask them to leave, didn’t give them the cold shoulder. “I don’t want him touching me.” She said quietly.

 

[DarkMudkip]

"He will not." Kojurou told her, "Now, we would appreciate your full cooperation, so we can find the ghoul or ghouls who did this to you."

 

[Jikkah]

Nana felt as though she was betraying Motochika, even if she wasn’t giving him away. “I don’t know who he was... I’d never seen him before, that wasn’t a lie.” She muttered, not looking at them. “He was big though, really tall, blonde hair.”

 

[DarkMudkip]

Masamune was writing it down, even though he looked annoyed.
"What else, Nana-dono? Anything at all you can remember will help."

 

[Jikkah]

Nana only glanced at Masamune. “There were two of them... They didn’t break in or anything.. knocked on the front door, then let themselves in... I couldn’t really see the second one, they had their hood up.” She felt her hands getting sweaty. “The big one was in a suit though.. other than that, I can’t give you any other descriptions..”

 

[DarkMudkip]

"Jason...?" Kojurou seemed confused, "That's rather odd...he doesn't just waltz into people's homes."
