[ Someone's.. coming. ]
Boxer's voice came in and out, slowly; as if he was desperately trying to hold on to anything that would keep him there. Whipping her head over her shoulder, Red braced herself for something else that would try to take him away..
Only to find a familiar face, watching from a distance.
[ Mi.. yoi? Is that.. ] the man tried to sit up, although lost his strength midway through; wincing as he fell back into the crook of Red's arm. Tears pricked her eyes, threatening to fall again as she smoothed the hair out of his face, shushing him gently.
"Boxer, please, don't move.. you'll only make it worse.."
Her gaze lifted eventually, finding the familiar eyes of the young woman who once served Red and her sword in a bar.
".. how did you get here?" was all she asked, uncertain if she could even trust who she was looking at. What if something else happened, what if.. someone tried to take Boxer away from her again? Even if Red had met her before, their entire world was falling apart-- and there was no telling what else could go wrong beyond her control.
