Refresher: "Thata girl.", Fang smiled gently kissing Serah's cheek before walking out into the hall and shutting the door.
-Lightning's House-
Upon walking back into the living room Fang saw Vanille cuddled up into Lightning's stomach still kneeling on the ground between her legs.
"Vanille, c'mon get up love.", Fang said grabbing the girl's arm and pulling her up.
"Fang what happened?", Vanille demanded pounding her weak hands on Fang's body with tears still flowing from her eyes.
Fang hesitated, looking down at the young girl's deep green eyes. "Snow..", she explained shortly.
Vanille closed her eyes and shook her head. "I'm gonna kill him.", she angrily said beginning to turn around and head towards the door.
Fang quickly grabbed her arm and pulled her back. "Light took care of him already.", Fang assured her.
Behind the two Claire stirred slightly. "Va-nille?", Claire mumbled softly, almost entirely inaudible. Vanille shot around and kneeled back beside Claire holding the side of her face in her hands.
"Claire are you okay? What hurts?", Vanille immediately asked sliding her hands down Claire's front.
"Mmm.", Lightning weakly chuckled out. "Nothing.", Claire mumbled softly giving a somewhat drugged smile at her wife.
"Fang what'd you give her?", Vanille stood up and spun around at the Pulsian woman.
"Just a little sedative, so she wouldn't feel anything.", Fang said innocently.
"Serah.. Where's Serah?", Claire asked from the chair.
Vanille spun around again to see Lightning attempting to get up. Just then Vanille looked at her wrists, one still broken, and saw the bloody scars from her restraints. She also took note of her crooked fingers which were still profusely bleeding. She quickly grabbed her wife and gently pushed her back down on the chair. "Wait wait.", she whispered tracing her fingers down her wife's legs.
"Vanille, no.", Fang ordered from behind her.
She turned her head around and looked up at Fang, who had a strong look of dismay on her face. She shook her head in another silent beg for Vanille not to do what she was intending.
Vanille kept one hand on the leg of the sweat pants her wife was wearing, and turned her head around looking up at Claire, who's eyes were fighting to stay open. Vanille shut her eyes tightly and began pulling Claire's pants down slowly. She kept them shut tight as she slid her pants down to her knees. Behind her she felt Fang turn around and sigh.
Opening her eyes Vanille saw the same splotchy irritated skin on the inner part of Lightning's thighs as she had seen on Serah's. She tightly gripped the cushion of the chair and leaned her head down giving out silent sobs.
She felt strong arms pulling her up from under her arms and immediately fell into the embrace of Fang.
"She's okay now Vanille. Everything's fine.", Fang attempted to reassure the small girl as she stroked her hair gently. Vanille was choking out sobs in Fang's neck and violently shaking. "Hey now girl, It's okay. She's safe.", Fang assured her again.
Fang released the girl after a few short moments and pulled Claire's sweatpants up again then lifted her up. "Serah wants her.", Fang explained as she began carrying the girl to her large bed. The instant she opened the door Serah opened her eyes and leaned up in bed.
"Fang! Is she okay?", Serah asked.
Fang quickly held up a finger to her mouth silencing Serah and placed Lightning down in the bed next to her quietly tucking her in. Serah looked up at Fang questioningly, as if asking for permission to touch her sister.
"She's got a few bruises, one of her wrists and a few of her fingers are broken. I'm gonna be back soon to wrap up her hand.", Fang whispered back as an answer.
In response Serah wrapped a gentle arm around her sister's waist and leaned her head on her chest and began crying. Fang gently rubbed a hand over Serah's hair and kissed her temple as she walked out of the room.
Fang walked into the bathroom where Serah had just recently taken a bath and took note of all the bloody garments scattered across the floor. She immediately felt guilty again as she picked up the clothes and put them in the washer. As she put the last of Serah's clothes in the laundry she turned around and looked in the cabinets for their medical bandages. After finding the material she walked back into Lightning and Vanille's bedroom to find Serah asleep.
Fang turned around again before going in the room to see Vanille anxiously standing in the hallway, having already changed her clothes.
"Come here.", Fang whispered as she motioned towards the bedroom. Vanille walked up close behind her and Fang gently took her hand before walking the rest of the way into the room.
"Her hand's still broken?", Vanille asked in a quiet voice as she gently kneeled on the floor beside her wife.
"Yes. I can't wrap it up until the bones are set in the right spot. It might heal wrong if I do.", Fang explained.
Vanille didn't even bother to wait for fang to finish her explanation before she tenderly took Claire's hand in hers then covered it with her other hand. Between her two hands a small yellow-green light had erupted filling the dark room with the shade. Claire's fingers began cracking as the cure spell had begun to set them back in place. Claire began moaning and writhing in pain waking up Serah.
"Claire? What's wrong?", Serah asked before taking note of Vanille and Fang next to her. "What are you doing to her Vanille?", Serah whispered.
"Fixing her broken bones.", Vanille answered softly.
Lightning moaned again and arched her back as Vanille continued holding her hand and resetting her bones. Vanille watched Claire as she finished the last few seconds of healing. She leaned over her wife after gently letting go of her still broken hand and kissed her lips softly.
Fang took the opportunity to take Lightning's hand and gently wrap it up in the bandages. "Well Farron, your hand should heal up within the next week or so, in the mean time I suggest you're careful and try your hardest to not break it even further." the Pulsian woman added sliding Lightning's hand back on the bed by her side.
"Thank you Fang.", Claire said, in an almost reluctant voice.
"I'll get Vanille set up and let you rest love. Sleep as long as you need to, see you in the morning.", Fang stated as she grabbed Vanille's hand and headed towards the door. Vanille let out a few grunts and moans of protest but Fang continued pulling her out into the hallway and quietly shut the door.
"Why can't I stay?", Vanille questioned still attempting to walk back into the bedroom.
"Vanille, she isn't going anywhere. Wait until tomorrow.", Fang ordered as she pulled her up the stairs towards one of the many guest rooms the large house held. "You need to sleep."
Vanille gave up on trying to escape Fang's tough grip and instead walked into the first guest room at the foot of the stairs. "Then.. Can you at least sleep with me?", Vanille asked cautiously sitting down on the bed and sliding herself under the sheets.
"'Course I will love.", Fang smiled laying in the bed next to her.
