Persephone felt sick at the thought that Dante had been hurt by Fenris. She'd fought the lycan before, and she knew what pain he could bring. And the thought that the thing that had ripped apart her body with such mercilessness, could be human? In her mind, the word "NO!" kept repeating itself, but she didn't say it.
Dante was good at judging people. She always seemed to know if someone deserved her trust or not, and it was her turn to trust Dante. But if Fenris hurt her...she might have barely survived the first time, but she would make sure that Fenris would pay.
"Dante... You're my friend, and I'll trust you that you know what you're doing with Fenris. But why was Krista trying to make you eat?"

"Thank you Sephe for trusting me, there is something him, something that was buried deep inside the beast that was calling out to be saved, but I couldn't do anything." Dante said wearily, she regarded Sephe's next question carefully. "Well my wounds haven't completely healed yet so.... yeah I just don't have much of an appetite" What Dante didn't add was that the pain in her chest set every part of her ablaze when she even thought of eating.

Persephone was suspicious. She'd always wanted to be a doctor or healer, and when she was younger she'd lived in the town library looking up every illness and ailment she could think of. She'd spent hours in there learning about the common cold and signs of heart attacks. She'd learned probably more than most doctors or college kids had.
And when Dante said she wasn't eating because of her wounds, she was worried. Any one, mother or doctor, would have told you you needed to eat most when your body was hurt or sick. And that worried Persephone that Dante wasn't eating. It made her wonder if there was more to it then just that. Dante's body would crave the food, not reject it.
"Dante...there's more to it then that, isn't there?"

Dante breathed in sharply and lowered her head, perfering to not let her friend see her face. "W-what do you mean by the Sephe?" She asked her voice was shaky despite her attepts to keep it normal. "I mean my wounds really haven't healed."

"Dante, you're my best friend. You know me better than anyone, and I...I would like to pretend I could tell when something is really wrong. And...well...when you're not healed, your body needs food...it needs energy. You would need to eat...and you haven't been...so there's more to it than you're telling me..."
Persephone's voice trailed off. She didn't want to accuse Dante of anything, but she didn't want to see anything bad happen to her. If anything did happen, she could never forgive herself, and she prayed silently that Dante would understand her concern. If she didn't...if she thought Sephe was against her...
If it came to pass that way, Persephone would lose her one last link to a family. She would lose that fragile thread to being normal and happy. She didn't want that to happen, but if it came down to it, she'd rather see Dante healthy then herself as happy. She only hoped that didn't happen.

Dante sighed, her friend was sharp she really didn't miss anything. But the blind girl really didn't know how to put what she wanted to say into words, it was so complicated. "I well I really don't now Sephe, but lately I just haven't been able to eat anything the mear thought makes my stomache burn and my head hurt, it makes me feel sick, so I just don't even bother passing through the great hall now, and well I didn't want you to worry, your my family your one of my only links to sanity, and when your worried it makes me feel well bad." Dante sighed her demenor shrinking into what appered to be nothing more than a small child, she calmed herself and shifted into a more comfertable sitting position, Dante assumed Sephe knew what she was doing and if she did she was going to be here for a while.

Persephone looked at Dante, and as she spoke, glued her eyes to her friends. Dante was suffering, as she had thought. And things had been worse than she had thought, and it hurt her. To know there was so much to this...
"Have you gone to the Hospital wing?"
It was the only thing that she could really think to do. If Shae had helped bring her back from the brink of death, then maybe she could help Dante regain the will to eat. And it was more than just the will to eat, it was the pain and nausea that followed that scared her.
She got up and hugged her friend.
"I'll be here Dante...I'll be here."

Dante was sure if her eyes were not grey and slightless the other girl Krista, who had been respectfully silent as the girls had talked, would have seen her pupils grow small in surprise it had been such a long time since she had been given a hug. She closed her sightless eyes and returned the embrace. "Well I um, have been there as of late, thanks to Krista, but I didn't mention this thing." She said quietly. "I was hoping that it was just one of those things that would just go away, but i guess not."

Persephone gave a small smile. It was human nature to think things would just go away. And why wouldn't you? Who wanted to think that they'd suffer for forever, and that the hurt and pain would never end? Who didn't want to pretend that if you didn't think it was there, it wasn't? Persephone couldn't blame Dante in the least.
She pulled back from her friend.
"It'll all be ok, because you know I would never lie to you and tell you it wouldn't be, if it wasn't."

"I know you'll be here Persephone, you've always been here for me." Dante gave a small smile. "But...Sephe what should I do, I-I'm afraid." Dante told her friend, she normaly never addmitted to being afraid she hated it, feeling weak and alone. And that was what fear did to her.

Persephone's eyes were sad for a moment. For Dante to admit she was scared, sent a shiver down Sephe's spine. She wasn't used to that. She was used to Dante being her rock, and now they were facing something they didn't have control over. Something that there was chance they couldn't fight.
A blaze of fury filled her for a moment. Fenris had done this to her friend. He'd ripped Persephone apart and now he'd done this to Dante. But Dante said he was almost human, and she didn't voice or show her anger. All she knew was that some day Fenris would get his come upings, and Persephone would be waiting.
She turned back to the here and now. What would they do? Or really, what could they do? She knew immeadiatly where they should go. The Hospital Wing. Shae was there, and she trusted the Ravenclaw ghost. Shae had worked a miracle on her, could she do one for Dante?
"We should go to the Hospital Wing. Shae can help..."

"Shae she is the ghost right I've meant her once when I came down with the flu." Dante said thoughtfuly as she regianed herself. "Perhaps you are yet again right." She told herself. Though she knew what Sephe was thinking she knew she was worried and that she was blaming the lycan for what had happened. "Sephe, do you think Shae will be able to help me cause...Sephe I...I...I really don't want to die."

She turned to look directly at Dante. She wasn't going to let her friend die. She knew Dante too well, and they'd been friends for such a short amount of time...NO! Dante wouldn't die, not as long as she had the will to live, not as long as people still needed her. Persephone still needed Dante.
"Dante...you won't die, and if you go, I'm going with you."
Her words were brave and strong, but inside she was shaking. She'd just got her life together. She'd found a family of friends, she'd fallen in love, and her marks were good. There had been those bad times, but the good times had out numbered them. Everything was going right, why did it have to go so bad?
Because of Him. He did this, and I swear if anything happens to Dante....I'll hunt him down and make him pay! Her mind screamed the words, but she kept her mouth silent.

"I trus you Sephe I really do." Dante sighed she was tired and she felt horrible. She just wanted to curl into a ball. But Sephe would be even more worried and Dante didn't need that. "I'm sorry if I worried you Sephe I really am."

Krista knew the conversation was in a point where it was deep; somewhere Krista didn't understand. She didn't realize how badly hurt Dante could actually be; she had thought it had been a little accident. But it was quite obvious it was not.
Krista didn't wish to intrude on their words, but she didn't want to leave either. She enjoyed the night sky, and it was oh-so bright tonight. But, she was feeling generous today, for some reason. 'Damn, I hate this conscience.' she thought to herself.
She made to stand up. "Maybe I should go..." she said, not wanting to ruin the two friends' heart to heart. She trailed off. Perhaps she could go sit by the lake. 'Nah, too cold down there.' Maybe in the room of requirement? 'Somebody sucking face or something.'
'Hm... I guess I'll go into the comon room and sit by the fire, if I must leave.'
"I really do not want to intrude," she added.
