Brie could hear Thyme's voice on the outskirts of her mind, but she could do nothing to respond at that moment, as she was far too weak. She felt Thyme's gentle touch as he pulled her hand into his. Pain felt like it was radiating from the deepest parts of her bones, every molecule seemed to have its own unique pain and it all came together into one ultimate pain. 'Huh...I wonder if I'm dying...'<br/><br/>"Brie...I need you to pull through this, okay? Whatever it is, I need you to survive it, so I can survive. Me and Ghost...we'd both be devastated if we lost you." 'Oh...I guess I am dying...' she thought a little sadly, though was oddly not worried. Perhaps because she knew it would be a relief.<br/><br/>"I'm gonna do whatever it takes to fix it. Even if I have to die, I'm going to fix this."<br/><br/>Thyme's words alarmed her then and she felt him lay his head on her stomach. With as much strength as she could muster and with a coherency she hadn't had in days---she spoke as her hand gave a weak squeeze of Thyme's hand. "Don..Don't be..." she took a small breath, "an idiot..." Her bleary eyes opened slightly to look at him, "if...i..." she stopped unable to continue. She closed her eyes and gave Thyme another small squeeze of his hand to reassure them both.<br/><br/>------<br/><br/>Kallista, perhaps to her husband's amusement, had taken upon herself to explore the compound's more domestic areas. She was heavily critical of anything and everything as she forced Silas to follow her about taking notes (whether he was or wasn't, she didn't know---but he was certainly writing something). "Silas, these colors cannot stand. They are generally gloomy and may cause psychological distress in growing children! These hideous hues would lead them to be killers alone."<br/><br/>Overall, Kallista figured the compound wasn't too awful, but there were certainly things she did not like. For one, as she had stated, she hated the colors of the interior. For two, it seemed like these fools couldn't keep information to themselves to save a life. She simply had to hold her breath and the information would find its way without effort. She knew that the PM leader and his mate were both in the hospital.<br/><br/>She wondered how long they would be in the hospital and also was curious as to if they would be moved to PM. Not that she would do it, but she still felt the urge to end the pitiful wolf and his mate. They were foolish, selfish, and a danger to her family. She took a breath to calm herself.<br/><br/>"Well, at least this gives us plenty of room to survey. It seems everyone in PM is a little....busy."
