ALT Gigi is bleeding out in the cold mountains. She had been hunting a monster thought she could take alone. The fight had been a draw. She’d only wanted to make Justice proud. A regret a lot more painful than the horrific rip in her belly filled her. She hated knowing how upset they’d be now. She’d never wanted to hurt them. She never wanted to disappoint them. But she always did. She’d always broken things. Hurt the people around her. She’d never meant to. Her body hurts.
ALT She fumbles at her pocket for a last comfort. It’s a tiny white flower. It’s precious. She clutches it tightly. Her heart hurts a lot. She’s already stained all the white of the flower to scarlet. Something about ruining it makes her really sad. Maybe she can ask for another one from her. One that’s bright and fresh and white. One that smells like her hair. She knows that she won’t get the chance. The anxiety makes her want to throw up. She knows she is dying. She wishes she wasn’t alone for it. Her body feels completely numb, which was a little better than pain. The horrible cold feeling that had been filling her body is fading. She softly cries, eyes closing as she slips away.
ALT She’s being jostled. She’s a hanging limp body. She doesn’t have the strength or even the awareness to try to resist. Doesn’t even have the energy to turn her head. She feels a wet warmth of breath around her torso. Through blurry eyes she registers an impossible seeming blur of grey rock under her. She comes to the vague understanding she’s been taken somewhere by something and it is happening fast. That’s why the wind roaring so loudly it’s making her ears pop. The searing pain in her belly is back, masking the feeling of the gentle fangs that are closed around her body. The dizziness returns. The darkness that has been at the edges of her vision grows again. She sees draconic paws. Fur and scales of lush green and sharp silver with hints of shimmering gold. They are unhesitatingly nimble on the craggy mountain, navigating with an intense purpose. Her eyes close.
