Naomi was still drifting out of her head slightly, her brain rattled from the concussion. She heard someone screaming in agony, and wondered if dykezilla was doing something else to her abused body, that she could no longer feel... but it was not her voice, it was Soph's! "No", she croaked.... "Sis, don't give in... stay strong!" She spoke aloud, because for the first time in her life she had no connection... Even when they slept, they entered each other's dreams, but... the only time this had happened before was when Soph had been in hospital to have her appendix out.<br/><br/>Naomi worked out what had happened. The blows to her head had muzzed her. She had disconnected from her body, and lost the connection to her sister. That wasn't good. Together they were strong, alone they were vulnerable. By an effort of will, she forced herself to concentrate on her body. The pain was intolerable. Her head throbbed like a train was running over it, her side burned with fire from the cracked rib, her lungs hurt from too little air... and her backside was on fire!<em>Soph, Sophie hun, I'm here. Hold on. We'll get through this. Send the pain my way. I'm stronger. Send it to me. Take my mind of the headache!</em>
