Recovery

Nyx arrived with RaXi, and not a moment too soon. Just as RaXi told me to let go of my chains, I felt the last of my energy dissipate from my body. I staggered to the side, listing heavily against the wall for support. I felt my Spirit of the Tigress recede, and I reverted back to a normal state of Nobody, as did my weapon.

Sliding against the wall, my senses failed me one by one as I blacked out: my vision clouded, and turned to black; the sounds around me grew softer and less defined; the scents of fear and hostility melded together, until I couldn't discern anything anymore. All I knew were the breaths that continued in and out of my mouth. My eyes slid shut.

I don't know how much later it was, but it couldn't have been too long; I could still smell Nyx's presence in the box. Someone jostled my shoulder lightly, and a soft-spoken voice reached my ears. Opening my eyes as much as they could go, I made out the fuzzy, spiky orange outline of someone's hair.

"...you...xikat...Re...kay? ...Ximh..." I couldn't make out the words. Feeling myself being carefully lifted into someone's arms, I let myself black out and give in to the darkness.
