Entry tags:
A whirlwind few days
Characters: Xion, Yosuke, Roxas, Aqua, Skulduggery, probably others?
Date: Starting on the 16th, then continuing through the next few days
Location: Fire Sector, Midnight Hotel, somewhere around where the expo used to be, possibly other places?
Situation: XION IS MUGGED. This causes a lot of fallout because she has very protective friends and family
Warnings/Rating: XION IS GETTING SHOT. There might also be Vanitas being an asshole somewhere in here. Also Roxas threatening to punch the faces in of people who hurt Xion.
A. The Mugging - CLOSED to Yosuke Hanamura
Just a quick errand, she'd told Roxas. She still couldn't believe he was here, here. Almost all of her doubts and worries had mostly vanished, once she'd realized how much she'd missed him.
But she had a job, a room she had to pay for. And that job involved running an errand. Not too long, if she hurried. She'd be back within an hour, tops.
And she was hurrying. She was on her way home, running, rushing, when she turned too fast around a corner and ran into a kedan. As she stumbled, attempting to regain her balance, the kedan had grabbed her shoulder, steadying her.
"S-sorry," she stammered, once she'd steadied herself, "I-"
But then she froze. Froze when she found herself facing the barrel of a revolver. The shape may have been different, but she'd seen Xigbar fighting enough times to recognize it. And that was when it'd hit her. The network posts. Akito and his stabbing.
Sure enough, he demanded her soul jewelry, jabbing the front gun at the necklace around her neck.
Except while his hand was still gripping her shoulder, the gun aimed at her was not steady. The kedan was very pale, and his voice shook too. Xion was no great shakes with reading emotions, but every signal pointed to him not wanting to be here. When she'd had the chance to see Akito's network post, he'd said that the ones mugging him had seemed reluctant too.
"I'm sorry, I can't," she told him, "It's dangerous to lose it."
He shook her, voice becoming more insistent. And even though he seemed more desperate than anything, being manhandled as such, plus the gun still aimed tremulously. She summoned her Keyblade in her free hand. A warning.
That's when the hand on her shoulder turned vicelike, and the gun steadied. And something in the region of Xion's gut seemed to be sinking.
"Get off!" she demanded, trying to break away. She didn't want to just attack if the fading hope that he was a reluctant theif was true, but he just wouldn't let go-
====================
B. The Aftermath - Open! (Expect Roxas to threadjack a lot)
Once Xion had been patched up, she was transplanted to Aqua's room at the Midnight Hotel for bed rest. For the first couple of days, others could pop in, but they'd find a young girl who is very much out of it, and not feeling good in the slightest. Her injury was bad enough, but with her soul gem missing... she'd never been sick before then, either.
At least, when he wasn't out looking for her Soul Gem, Roxas was spending a lot of time basically glued to her side.
Once she got her gem back, however, she started doing considerably better.
Enough that she was liable to slip out of bed and wander the Midnight Hotel, observing those coming and going from the balcony, or else curled up on a couch in the Common Room. Her upper arm was still wrapped in bandages and she probably shouldn't have been out of bed yet, but it was still nice to be moving again. Of course sometimes she really was back in Aqua's room, sometimes asleep, sometimes not, but certainly ready and willing to talk anybody who might stop by. Or anybody who had any particular questions to ask about what happened.
[ooc; This prompt may change a bit when more details about how Xion's being patched up are finalized]
=======================
C. Finding the Soul Gem - Roxas and Aqua and ????
Maybe they manage to find the remains of the Expo in time. Or maybe they - by lucky chance - hear of someone who's trying to find the owner of a soul gem that they found. Either way, the kedan in possession of Xion's soul gem is quite eager to make sure it finds its way home again.
[ooc; maybe you guys should make a comment idk DO THIS PART AS YOU SEE FIT]

D. Misc.
NONE OF THE ABOVE? Have anything else in mind? I feel like I'm forgetting something too so I might add things later when I think about them.

She stopped a few paces from the couch with a little wave of greeting, then indicated the still-present bandage, tipping her head a little as if in inquiry. "How have you been?" she asked, without other preamble.

"Yeah, better. I..." she trailed off for a moment, "I've seen you before, right?"

Yes, that seemed to fit in with the confusing tangle that was her memories after the shooting. At least it didn't feel wrong, but there wouldn't really be any reason to lie about something like that, would there?
"Thank you. For... for saving me," she added. Because indeed, she had no illusions about how much mortal danger she'd been in. Especially now, in retrospect.

It was good to see Xion doing well, even if not completely healed yet. She couldn't be all that much older than Genis, and as much as Raine knew children could bear great responsibility often better than adults thought, it was still not a pleasant thing to see children injured. What had those kedan been thinking?
