Kai shut his eyes. "You can't stay." He let out a long breath. "I saw that. You have trouble coming your way, trouble you won't be able to overcome, if you stay here much longer." How long had it been already? How was he even alive? What had happened? Oh, his head... |

Ajora hesitated only a moment. " I'd rather stay and die, then leave you on your own." Holy loli pops. |

Kai opened his eyes now, just staring at her. The issue he was struggling with? But... She doesn't like me. I'm a man. Then, he rubbed his face. What on earth did I say to her? He could remember prophesying, but he couldn't remember what he had said. "...Thank you?" What do you say to something like that? |

Ajora shrugged, looking to Z that was returning with Lucien. " What do i do with him? he's just a boy..." |

Kai's eyes turned sharply to Ajora. "He is just a child, but he will grow to be a great and influential man. The care, though brief, of a stranger will not go forgotten." Then, he reached up, closing his eyes and rubbing his temple. Lucian was staring. "Does he do that a lot?" |

Ajora nodded slowly, looking to Z, smiling slightly to him. " Come on buddy." With that, he was placed to rest in the sleeper recliner. he was currently passed off as the adopted son. No one questioned, so they went with it. They had no choice. She had to make things work with Kai as he was. |

Lucian just shook his head. "This is sort of crazy. I just hope you two know that." Kai's arm tiredly fell back to the bed. "Thank you." Lucian looked taken aback. Kai didn't bother to hide much right now... or maybe it was that the prophetic tendency hadn't quite faded all the way back to where it normally rested. "I know what you did." Lucian was quiet for a moment and then just shook his head. Then, Kai shifted so that he was laying on his side. "There is a storm coming." Something about that sounded more ominous than it should have. The man needed to sleep, however, as the nurse who had come in was now lecturing them. |

Ajora merely shrugged, looking over Kia, letting him rest, completely ignoring the nurse. She was so pesky. |

Some time later, Lucian was hunched into the corner with Z. It was cold in here, as the wet winds forced themselves through the windows, even though they were closed with the curtains drawn tight. The rain battered the panes mercilessly, and the winds did nothing short of howl. The words that Kai was greeted with when he woke up? "You said a 'storm', not a hurricane!" And then the power died and everything began beeping while the generators worked on booting up. |

Ajora ignored Lucien, leaning over Kai, assuring herself he was alright before rolling her eyes at Lucien. " It is not as bad as we have lived through." |

Kai moved slowly now, actually sitting up. Oh... owwwwwwwwww. He let himself lay right back down. Now, the wimpy man was just looking at that pink pitcher of water sitting on the table beside his bed. He couldn't reach it from here. But he really wanted something in his stomach, even if it was something to drink. "Please?" He spoke it softly, reaching out as everything kicked back on. He didn't want to try to climb out of bed. Thank you generators. Now, the nurses were going around and turning off all non-necessary things. |

Ajora moved and placed a straw in the man's mouth easily, gingerly brushing his hair back. " easy." |

Kai's blood pressure dropped again, though the heart rate did not spike. His pupils dilated wide, like normal, for a moment or two before relaxing into their normal width. "Please... don't..." Don't touch him? It felt selfish to ask something like that. So, the man looked up at her apologetically. "I feel shaky and tired... That sounds stupid. I'm just not strong enough to block it out. That sounds stupider." So, he just took the cup to himself, looking down at his IVs. |

Ajora stopped, seeming to near instantly go back to her normal state, moving off the bed and making it so that he had another IV dripping for him. She didn't have to touch him to do that. " It's alright." She stated, as an after thought to his statement, considering him, sitting down in the chair next to his bed, hands in her lap as she listened to the storm. |

"No, it's not." Kai glanced up at her, winced and then shrunk down into his blanket some more. His eyes moved to the curtains for a moment before he bit his lip. The man then spoke quietly. "Come sit on the side of my bed?" |
