Xion sat cross legged next to the tombstone,violin in its carry case on her lap looking at the ground.She'd been coming here a lot recently , the flower holder filled with bell flowers and black roses and just one orchid.She took her time in aranging them and afterwards she just sat there thinking
"You know Mom people say that talking helps" she muttered "So I wonder Mom if you were alive would you be okay with what I do?I know all moms go yeah sweetie and smile but would you" she blinked for a while "I met some of the good guys ,I have a few friends but I dropped outta school.Sorry about that but music college is on the line in the winter.I won't be able to come much anymore but I'll come when I can" she smiled "How's Dad is he okay?I hope your both okay.I still play like you told me too.I promised" she said opening the case and pulling out the small instrument
"It's not the one you got me but it's almost the same" she muttered placing her chin on it before begining the familiar,haunting tune.

Jeremiah jumped as he heard the muffled speech of a girl, followed by an eerie melody on a violin. He had been coming to the cemetery periodically since separating with Joshua and Kage, to A) make sure that his friends weren't dead yet, and B) hope that his father was and that his mother wasn't. It was a big graveyard, and luckily, there were not yet any tombstones reading Kyle Jernus or Joshua White, but it was a little disconcerting that there was no Charles White, either.
"H-Hello...?" called the Ookami hesitantly into the darkness, hoping the talking, violin-playing voice wasn't the ghost of some vengeful girl who'd been lost in the war.

She heard someone say something and clutched the tombstone "Mom please don't let them get me.You saw what happened last week please dont let them come for me again" she cried closing her eyes and swinging back and forth

Now Jeremiah was afraid. Not real afraid, like his life was in danger; more like that TV afraid, like something in the back of his head told him it was some high school kid's prank or something. The boyish Ookami walked toward the voice cautiously, trailing the tombstones in case he ended up needing something to hold on to.
"I'm not here to, uh... get you," called Jeremiah, his voice shaking. "I'm just here looking for some names, and I heard your music. Are you, uh... okay?"

She shook her head, using the tombstone to lift her frail body off the ground.The excess of alcohol and the lack of eating made her feel good.She rarely noticed she did it.
"That's good and I'm fine thanks for asking"

"Just doing my duty as a citizen, I guess..." answered Jeremiah uncertainly. He didn't have much experience with talking to mourning and/or drunk people (and this girl could be either, given her wobbly stance and the fact that she was here in the cemetery). He looked at her a little more closely to discover that she was also Ookami.
Funny... thought Jeremiah. I haven't seen her at the HQ... Then again, that Jack fellow's the only one I actually met there.
"For the sake of asking..." the boyish man continued. "Have you seen any tombstones with the name 'White' on them recently?"

"White rings a bell.If I remember okay he defiantly ain't dead" she confirmed before darkly chuckling "I don't look at others graves it feels intrusive"
She smiled.It felt good but it looked out of place.She was trying to ignore the hallucinations.If she didn't think about them the blood wouldn't come.She could see a few drops dripping down the tombstone and her eyes widened
'No not here' she muttered pulling out the violin again 'You gotta take your mind off it"

Yukiko had been taking her regular late-night stroll through the cemetary when she heard the violin. Her search for life-and-death-themed inspiration was suddenly halted by the notes of a somewhat familar and haunting melody. The green-eyed girl paused and turned in the direction of the music, hesitating for a moment before walking over in that general direction.
The Ookami stopped again when the notes faded and muffled voices took over. The last thing she wanted to do was upset mourners by being a nosy snoop, but seeing as one of the voices was painfully familar Yukiko was able to brush off her concerns and come closer, confirming the presence of a very familar face.
"Xion?" She chirped, tilting her head to the side. How long had it been since she'd seen her friend? Probably since the fellow Ookami had sheltered at her house. How long ago had that been? A few weeks? It felt much longer.

The ookami jumped up slightly and hid round the other side "Don't scare me like that I can't deal with it" she said clutching at her head "I don't know how to deal with things at the moment.I don't know how" she clenched her eyes shut
"I don't know how to deal with it"

Yukiko reached out gently, hopping she wouldn't make things worse by trying to get closer. Clearly something was wrong with her friend.
"Xion," she murmured, her voice soothing but firm. "Xion, listen to me." The teen wrapped her pale fingers around the other girl's wrist and used her free hand to keep the fellow Ookami focused on her. "Whatever you're seeing, whatever you're feeling, it can't hurt you okay? It can't hurt you."

"It can though" she murmured "My mind , it's not stable at the moment so anything I do from here on in maybe rash but don't stop me"

Yukiko opened her mouth to respond an then, thinking better of it, instead bit her lip and nodded. It was obvious Xion wasn't stable at the moment, but somehow the fellow Ookami seemed to know what she was doing... kinda. It was enough to keep Yukiko calm enough to sit back and wait for the storm to pass... carefully of course.
