Nel plopped to the group after being released from Alteser the shade's grasp, but even though the shade was gone, the memories still remained.
She had her hands on her head, and her eyes were shut tight, as if she was trying to force the memories of her past out of her minds eye and back deep into her unconcious mind. (any psycology buffs out there know if I used the right term? I forgot, from my psy class =/)
"No...Not again....Go away...Not now....Get out!" She yelled out, and stopped rocking back and forth. She looked up and saw a boy around 14 with scars all over his body. She saw his clothes were worn and torn in places, but the strangest thing about him were his eyes, one red and one blue (unless they're both purple now? In which case I'll edit)
"I hope you weren't hurt." said the boy, the wounds from the ice shards Nel embedded into the shade's hand were still there.
"Ah...Ahh! What are you!?" she yelled out as she remembered what had happened, "You're that...THING...That attacked me? But...How could you be?" She said as she backed up against a nearby tree.
Realizing she must be coming off as very rude, she gave herself a quick slap against her cheek and whispered to herself, "Wait..What am I doing?"
She slowly stood up and walked back over to the boy, and took his hand. "Uhh...Sorry...I'm Nel, and you are?"
