A gasp for air was what had awaken Red from her horrific nightmare. She panted heavily, feeling her arms, legs, head. They were all attached and not injured by... well, she was okay, physically. Red slid out of her bed, savouring the feeling of the cool floor for just a moment before she stood up and got her clothes ready for a morning shower. As she dragged herself into the bathroom, she tightened her fingers around the onyx ring that was given to her by her father the night before he and her mother were killed by 'the enemy' as she called them. "You're okay, Willow," She whispered to herself as she sat in the tub, clutching her long hair as the hot water bursting from the shower head threatened to push it into the drain. This moment was nothing more than the sign of weakness and fragility that Red dared show no one.<br/><br/>Walking through the training deck, Red heard whispers and other small talk of a certain girl, Aria to be specific, who had beaten some guy who was supposedly unbeatable. "I heard she broke his neck!" "Well, whatever it was, she left with a big gash on her forehead." "What?! Really?!" "Mhm! And she hit a medical officer who tried to help!" Red stopped mid-walk. She spun around, grabbing one of the gossiping girls by the collar. "If you girls have any sense of self preservation, you'll shut your trap before I shove your tongues down your throats!" She scolded. With a small whisper of a curse, she let the girl fall and walked away. Sighing in frustration, she pounded the wall with a closed fist. "This is not a good morning for me," Red muttered before making her way to the medical deck.<br/><br/>"Thanks so much." Red smiled over at a medical officer who claimed to have spoken to Aria for but a minute. Apparantly, she only resisted help from it. "I knew she wouldn't do such a thing as hit a robot. That would be useless. Synthetics don't feel a thing." She said with a roll of her eyes. The officer had given her some alcohol and a few bandages for Aria. When Red spotted her, she walked up behind her, placing a cotton swob on her head. "You'd be surprised how fast rumors spread about the girl who beat a mechanic, Aria. Be more careful next time, hm?" She scolded gently. "It'd be bad if your major found out. But with all these rumors floating around, you'll probably be in more trouble than you should."
