Gomen everyone for taking so long. If I hadn't gotten sick and had a weeks worth of snow days, I would have never found the time to finish this chapter. It's longer than usual and the plot is starting to actually build! Yay!
Yeah, yeah, I don't own Weiss, Koyasu does .
-------------------------------
For reasons only Morgan knew, she had somehow gotten to her room for a change of clothes and claimed the bathroom before any of the guys. They could wait. She folded her clean clothes and set them on top of the dirty clothes hamper and ran the water, waiting for it to warm. Stripping from her mission gear and pulling her hair down to flow freely about her shoulders, Morgan stepped into the spray of warm water that soothed the pains of minor injuries. The lavender and orange scented soap suds coated her washcloth and she moved it idly over her bloodied skin. The water started to turn pink from not only her blood, but that of strangers, those she had killed tonight. As the bloody water swirled down the drain, Morgan dropped her washcloth and bent to pick it up.
At the sight of blood running off her and down the drain, Morgan no longer saw the bathroom, instead she saw her old garage studio, the floor littered with the bodies of those she loved, their blood pooling together and slowly dripping down the drainage pipe. She no longer heard the rushing of the water, but gunshots and screams, the hot water felt like the flames that licked at her body and consumed those of her friends and family. The bullet hole scare on her right collar bone throbbed with pain like it had when it had fist been created. Morgan went blind in panic and did the only thing she thought to do. She screamed.
Omi had just finished bandaging up the small wounds of his comrades when the quaint silence was broken by a shrill and panicked scream. They all looked at each other and bolted up the stairs to the bathroom. The lights flickered and everything on the walls and tables shook violently, some even falling off.
"What the hell is going on?!" Ken yelled.
"Hell if I know!" Yoji yelled back and banged on the door.
"Morgan! Morgan, open the door!" Yoji pressed his ear against the door and could only hear the running shower and hysterical crying.
"Morgan it's Yoji! Come on, open the door!"
They were pounding at the door but all Morgan heard were gunshots, her scar throbbing in time with the pounding. She heard her name being called and reached frantically for the source. It was muffled like it was behind a door. She wanted that door to go away.
"Morgan open the d-" the guys barely had enough time to move before the door to the bathroom flew open.
"What the-?!"
"Who cares right now! Morgan are you alright?!" Yoji tried to push his way through to her but Aya beat him to it and pushed his way through the others into the bathroom and found Morgan sitting in the tub with her knees drawn up to her chest tightly staring straight ahead. Ken noticed a strange look on Aya's face. "What's wrong Aya?"
"Her eyes..." Yoji Ken and Omi all looked to where Aya was pointing and gasped. Morgan's eyes had gone from their usual brown to a pale blue that was almost white.
"Omi, turn off the water. Ken, cover her with a towel. I'm going to get her medication and call Manx."
Omi and Ken nodded as their silent leader left the room. They did what they had been told and even found a bath rode to drape over her.
Yoji walked over and waved his hand in front of her pale, unblinking eyes.
"Come on Morgan-chan, come on, respond."
"She can't hear nor see you, Yoji," a deep, feminine voice said from the doorway, causing the bishonen to look up.
"Manx!" they all said together.
"Thank Kami-sama I was on my way here already," Manx walked over to Morgan, popping the lid off a prescription bottle, she coaxed open Morgan's mouth and, tilting her head back, forced the pill down her throat.
"That should take care of that in a few hours. Everyone out while I get her dressed."
They filed out of the room and waited. Well, Ken Yoji, and Omi waited, Ran went back to his room the moment Manx took over. They each waited at various points of the hallway, Yoji being closest to the door.
After several minutes, and what sounded like a struggle, Manx opened the door.
"Yoji, I need you to carry her to her room, if you would."
Yoji nodded, went in, and picked up the unconscious Morgan, whose body hung limp in his arms.
"Is she going to be ok?" Omi asked concerned.
"She'll be fine. She hasn't completely adjusted to the new life style and had never killed anyone before. Give her time and she'll be as normal as she can get. But in the mean time, keep an eye on her and make sure she takes her medication."
Yoji set Morgan down on her bed softly and they all crowded into the girl's room. Manx gently stroked her hair and turned, looking at the 3 bishonen in the room with total seriousness,
"I want at least one person keeping watch over her for at least 2 weeks. If she has another episode call me immediately."
The guys all nodded and started to file out of the room.
"...starting now guys," Manx said, exasperated.
Omi turned around, "I'm sorry Manx, but I have a ton of homework to do..."
"I've got-" Ken started but was interrupted by Yoji.
"I'll do it, you guys go do what you need to." He sat down in the chair next to the bed.
"Thank you Yoji. You know how to contact me if something happens," Manx started to walk out when she noticed the box she had brought.
"Oh! I almost forgot why I cam here in the first place," She opened the box and pulled out a small light gray cat who clung to her in sheer fright.
"This is Morgan's cat, Rach."
Yoji reached out to pet the cat but she reared back from him.
"Not a very friendly thing is she?"
"Oh, she's really sweet, just a little skittish. Once she gets used to you she'll be a lot friendlier."
Manx then set the small cat on the floor.
Rach walked slowly around the room, cautiously checking things out and sniffed around before she jumped up on the bed and headed for Morgan's head. She softly nuzzled the side of her face and unceremoniously plopped down between her side and arm. Morgan shifted and placed her hand on the fuzzy animal by pure habit.
"Isn't that the cutest thing you've ever seen?" Manx cooed, completely out of character to the point it scared Yoji,
"....Yeah...but what happens when Aya decides he doesn't want the cat here?"
"It's not up to him. It's my orders that the cat stays. It will help her adjust."
Yoji just nodded as Manx walked out to update the others on the situation.
Yoji sat down next to Morgan's bead and watched the girl sleep with her pet. After a few hours he decided she wasn't going to wake up anytime soon and started to get up.
"Don't.....go..."
It was barely a whisper but Yoji had heard it, not sure if it was part of a dream or if she was talking to him, but he sat back down anyway.

I'm almost done with ch 5, I swear. I usually write my stuff in class but this semester I don't have any to do that in x_c I'll get it up ASAP I promise.
Yeah, yeah, I don't own Weiss, Koyasu does .
