[Becca looks sick. Becca looks really sick. She pants heavily and closes her eyes for a moment, trying to keep herself coherent enough to say what she needs to say.]

Sh-Shion... I'm...my dorm is Black 2-B. Please... I... Come here....

I feel...faint...and kind of like I've been mauled by a bear...

Mauled by a bear? [Shion blinked and went back to trying to work out what was wrong. She had no temperature but she was shaking. He grabbed the pillows of the three unoccupied beds in the room and propped Becca's legs on them.] Concentrate on breathing Becca, I can get you some water.

[She nods weakly, trying to breathe. It's getting harder and harder.]

Shion... I don't... I don't think I can keep it down...

You need to try. [He ran out the room and got some water from the bathroom, being back at her side in a few moments. He tried to help her sit up.] Sip slowly.

I'll try...

[She leans into him and sips slowly at the water, but she only gets about three sips down before she turns away from him sharply and throws it back up onto the floor on the other side of the bed.]

M'sorry...

[Okay that was bad... Shion put the glass on the side, there was no point forcing her to drink it if she was just going to throw up, she would lose more fluid that way.]

Don't worry about it. [He tried to sound upbeat, and hide the panic] You just need to rest.

[She nodded weakly, reaching out her arms to him.]

Shion... Shion I've heard....when people leave...they leave memories behind... I want... I want you to have...my drawing... I want you to remember how to draw from...from me...

Don't talk like that, you wont disappear. [He gripped her hand tightly.] I haven't heard of people being ill before disappearing. You are going to be alright, keep breathing.

[Her grip on his hand is weak, and her breathing is getting shallower and shallower.]

I...don't know if... I can....

Yes you can, keep breathing. I'll work out what's wrong, it will be fine...

[It takes more and more of her focus just to breathe. Slowly, she sucks in a deep breath, needing it to try to speak.]

Shion... Everything's...getting blurry...please... Just hold me. I'm scared...

I'm here Becca, don't worry. [This wasn't good, what was wrong? Had she had an allergic reaction to something?] Don't be scared...

[She reaches up to try to touch his cheek, but she only gets about halfway there. Her hand falls lifelessly back onto the bed, her eyes still open but glassily unfocused.]

Becca... [And then she was gone... For a moment Shion just stared. He had seen dead bodies before, there were plenty in the West Town where freezing and starvation where constant companions. He had seen people die from parasite bees as well, but a death like this. One moment she was here, the other she was dead.

She was dead and he hadn't been able to help her, there had been no one attacking them. It had been some sort of injury or illness, he had been right here with her and she had still died.] Becca...

[He let go of her and moved back, leaning against the other bed shaking, tears obscuring his vision so much that when the body disappeared he thought it was his mind playing tricks on him.

One of his very few friends, and she had died, he had been here... He had been useless...]

[The first thing Becca was aware of was that she wasn't nauseous any more. Nor did she feel weak and in pain. But everything was dark...wasn't Heaven supposed to be light? Oh, right, her eyes were closed. She opened them up, and it took a moment to register that she was looking at her dorm ceiling. She gasped and sat up, then blushed and grabbed the covers to pull over her chest to protect her modesty when she realised she was naked.]

Sh-Shion?

[She wasn't thinking about the scars on her arms and shoulders, that he could now see. He'd seen her forearm once, but her scars went all the way up her arms, across her chest, and all over her shoulders and back, and they were all on display at the moment.]

[At the sound of his name Shion looked up. Oh... that was right... people couldn't die here...

He blinked at her, relief flooding him.] Becca... you're okay... [He rushed to her side and gripped her hand, he noticed the scars but only vaguely, wrapped up in the fact she wasn't dead.]

How... how do you feel?

Confused... But better. I feel so much better...

[She sighed in relief, squeezing his hand gently before carefully trying to pull him in for a hug without dislodging the blanket.]

[He hugs her, trembling.] Good... I... am glad... [He pulls back] I'm sorry Becca... I didn't know what to do... how to save you...

You came, Shion...that's what matters....

No... I... [She had died, he had been right there. He gripped her hand before letting go.] Sorry... I... I am glad you are better.

[Then he fled.]

Shion!

[Fuck modesty, getting up.]

SHION!!!!

[Not fucking modesty enough to chase after him, though, so she sits down in shock for a few moments. She starts getting dressed, out of the sheer need to be doing something, but once her clothes are on, she flops back onto the bed and breaks down in tears.]
