The Day After A Bad Night

Catt Hatter

Catt Hatter

@catthatter 3 years ago

* It was the day after Nex's accidental smoke bomb had turned several lodgers into children and Catt had been unusually quiet, almost sullen, all morning. She wasn't the only one acting strange. Sozo was up and around, and Not-Allison hadn't been seen at breakfast that morning.

Ever since the Jasper had taken a liking to the girl, she hadn't missed it once.*

(Time for conspiracies, secrets and intrigue! Let's see if any characters can get a straight answer out of Catt or Not-Allison! I doubt it. >:3 )

* Not-Allison was quietly sitting in a far corner of the library, surrounded by medical text books and the likes.*

* Sozo walked in. Catt wasn't talking about what had happened to her, so he had come to the library hoping to find a book on the methods he had seen the results of on his friend's body. Browsing the shelves he found that most of the books he was looking for were strangely absent, then he spotted the stack of books in the corner. Maybe they were there?*

* Not-Allison was enthralled in the books trying to take her mind off of last night's failure. Between the disappointment and the lack of sleep, she was in a foul mood.*

hmm...*This was a twist. Not-Allison thought that after Catt had escaped, she would be on the run. Forever looking over her shoulder as she fled. But no! In her usual Catt manner she had to come back to the Society, defiant of all the duo had done to her. Typical Catt..*...what do you mean by not "good"?

* If Catt had come back to the Society as broken as when she left Not-Allison then it would only be a matter of time before a witch hunt began to search out for her tormentor.*

Ever since the accident, she hasn't felt afraid. At least that's what she told me. And I think it's been making her reckless! Whatever she's been doing for fun isn't safe! It's not sane! *He fought to keep his voice low.* I mean there was barely anything left when I found her!

W-What do you mean she can't feel fear? *A warm rage grew up within her. It explained so much...why she wasn't affected by the incense (made to release cortisol, adrenaline, and other fear inducing chemicals into the air that she harvested from her victims), why she didn't cry or beg, why she never saw fear in Catt's eyes.*

Bite?

* She gritted through her teeth. It was becoming hard to keep up this facade.

She's ok!?! I figured she still be in pieces still after she escaped my satchel but "She's fine?!" Did anything I do have an affect?

The majority of the girl was now seething with rage. Not only had Catt had somehow escaped (due to her Hatt saving her and then teleporting her back to the Society) but she was in one piece. A part of the did feel a bit of relief when hearing Catt was okay. If anyone were to ask her why she was relieve, the girl would reply that she had gained more time before the Society found out what happened...while this is partly true, the real reason was a part of her that was just happy to hear her friend was safe, but she would never admit this.*

(XD oh no! )

* The girl had been "around" but only was watching from a distance.

She had seen Catt carried out of Hela's room by Sozo, covered in blood. He was bent down and then Catt stood up and break back into Hela's room. So that's what he was doing she thought. Sozo had undone all of her hard work...some friend...*

I was around....So you fixed her?*She gritted through her teeth. ...The rage was growing more intense. She was beginning to lose control.*

(See how she's speaking with italics now....She's got to get out of there fast or there will be blood! >:D )

* Not-Allison gripped the books in her hands so hard her knuckles turned white. Her teeth gritted and her hair seemed to be darker, wilder.

Everything she had done that night had been erased. Catt had escaped her confinement and Sozo had saved her from a much deserved fate. It wasn't fair! Yesterday could have been perfect but Catt and now Sozo had to interfere! They crushed her dreams like a unwanted fly. It was all her fault--their fault, traitors. *

...She owes me too...

Dreamer was in the library stretching and looking for books. But she noticed some of her usual books she read were missing. "What the?" She asked confused. She then began looking around in too seeing not-allison."Why do you have all these books surrounding you?" She asked. "You look horrid." Suspicion was laced in to her voice, Nex and her always knew, trust your gut and instincts and trust no one. Which now she was doing. "What did you do?" She asked noticing her quilty expression.

V-Velius i think i've listened something from C-Catt.. maybe we should i-investigate?

John i.. don't think we should, the dreams are something serious...

* Velius thinks for a moment what he should do, and agrees with John. as they entered, they saw it was all black. John and Velius were about to return to the roof when they heard something strange and decided to investigate...*

(I like it! Though, don't expect Catt to be happy about the invasion of privacy. She hasn't told anyone about the nightmares.)

* They followed the sound, a muffled clang punctuated by grunts. They recognised the voice as Catt's, it sounded like she was being attacked with a sheet of metal. However when they found her, they couldn't see any assailant or a weapon. All they saw was Catt, and the injuries that appeared at the sound of metal striking flesh.*

* Velius and John, before investigate they turned invisible*

V-Velius i think we should talk with h-her, she seems very c-confused and hurt!

John did you forgot the rules? we can't interfere, the person that's dreaming can discover us. we're here to watch if something dangerous happens to the current dreamer, and wake them up in real life with an excuse, in this case, something dangerous is happening, but let's see if something more dangerous happens next

a-alright Velius.. i a-agree with you.

* The clanging and spontaneous injuries continued. Then the pattern of sound was broken by a crack as one of the strikes broke her arm. Catt rolled to her side and curled protectively around her fractured limb, groaning. The blows continued, fresh gashes opening across her back and leggs.*

then, my dear John, we'll appear in the real life and wake up her. by now i think this is a.. normal dream, a rare dream would be if she dies. if it does, she'll never wake up.. and i don't want that to happen. we can't do anything more than watch. pay attention and calm yourself.

She just wanted to stay like this, being held. But she couldn't ask, and it would probably be redundant at this point anyway.*
