*Sapphire wasn't the same since Fentis was kidnapped, before she met him she had been in a shell, she couldn't show weakness... But when he met her, that changed. She could be herself, she didn't need to be tough, she could show weakness...
When he was kidnapped, it left her empty. She couldn't function without him, she needed him. So she cried, and cried, and cried. She drank, and drank, and drank, and drank... Until she couldn't sink any deeper. Then Sketch's big brother, Vorim'Tairn came along and all that changed.
He saw what she had gone through and felt what she had felt. So he comforted her, and somehow managed to convince her that this wasn't the end even though Sketch couldn't even convince her of that... Before she met Fentis, she just trained all day long. Now, she hasn't slept in days, she's been training non-stop for when she needs to get Fentis back.
She's gone from cardio, to weights, to punching bags, never taking a break to even eat. If she keeps training like this, she is going to starve... And she knows this, but her love for Fentis keeps her moving, even if it kills her.
*She has just destroyed her fourth punching bag in a single day. She walks over, picks one up, sets one up, and continues training.*

*She just keeps punching the punching bag, ignoring you.*
-
*Cyan watches from a distance, clearly concerned* Sapphire! Please! If you wanna get him back you have to stay alive, and that means you need food and sleep! You know this Sapphire!
-
[u]What I need is to train.[/u] *It comes out as a sort of growl.*
-
Well training is good but you can't spend your whole life training. Touch your chest. You feel those? Those are your ribs. That's NOT healthy
-
*She does so...* "Th-Those are..."
-
Those are Ribs Sapphire.
-
[u]I-I know...[/u]
-
Please. Rest. Eat. You'll feel much better
-
*She sighs.* [u]I... I-I guess I should... It's just, I-I can't sit still... I need to feel like I'm doing something![/u] *She starts to stumble around.* [u]I-I don't feel g-good...[/u] "She falls over."
-
SAP! *Cyan runs over to you, checking to see if you're conscious*
-
[u]Whuh? Hmm?[/u] *She tries to get up but is completely out of energy. She's malnourished, dehydrated and exhausted.*
-
I got you. *Cyan picks you up and brings you to Sketch's box. Because you are thinner you are easy to pick up* Sketch! There's someone here who needs your help! *She pulls out a water bottle and gives it to you. It's a rather large water bottle filled to the brim*
-
*She takes it and starts drinking the water thirstily, Sketch comes out of the box.* "What's going- oh my god... I knew this will happen, bring her in."
-
*Cyan does as told* I lost Mortar to over exertion, I'm not gonna lose someone else. Understood, Sapphire?
-
[u]M-Mhm...[/u] *She's too out of it to even speak. Sketch takes her and sets her on the couch, then goes to the kitchen and starts taking out tons of food and bottles of water.* "I tried bringing her food and water, but she just ignored it..."
-
She seemed to think that the only way to get Fentis back is to train. Ignore everything else and train. It's an awful feeling
-
"I know... I tried to snap her out of it but she wouldn't listen..."
-
That's what passion does to a person. It can be both good or bad.
-
"Yeah... I don't know what I would do if something were to happen to Leyla..."
-
Yeah, she is a very good person. You wouldn't be the only one who thinks that way. I heard Mortar really liked her as well.
-
"Yeah... I'll just have to make sure nothing happens to her..." *Sketch hands Sapphire a whole fried chicken and she immediately starts tearing it apart.*
-
*Cyan is impressed as to how she does it* Of course.
-
*She finishes the chicken, dropping the bones in a nearby trashcan and then drinking even more water.*
-
Just keep eating and drinking, you'll feel much better
