[i]Nat scowled at the trio as they scampered off, but her look turned to one of concern when she saw the limping woman. It was a much better choice to help in her eyes, so she quickly made way over and knelt beside her, offering a hand to help the woman to her feet. [/i]

The already standing woman wrapped an arm around Nat's shoulders suddenly and leaned most of her weight on her with a groan of pain. "Agh....S-Sorry, they just hit me pretty hard. Thank you for the fire...thing."
-
[i]"No problem, usually a little bit of fire can solve a problem." Natalie knew the woman wouldn't be welcome at that bar, given how the last entry went. So she made way for her apartment a couple of blocks down the road. As soon as they entered her fifth floor home, Natalie sighed in relief. She brought the lady into the living room and set her down on the couch, heading off to the washroom and returning a few moments later with a few bandages and some rubbing alcohol. "Do you think you need to get patched up?" [/i]
-
"I don't see any blood on my body, but I can't see my face. Did any glass cut me when they threw one of those bottles?" The woman oddly made herself as comfortable as she could on the couch as if she were in her own home and yawned. With a close inspection and good lighting Nat would be able to see a couple of cuts all over the woman's head and even a little bit of glass in her hair.
-
[i]"Shit... You can use the sink to wash your hair out, right? Or will you need to shower it out?" Nat asked the woman, hoping for the former. She applied the rubbing alcohol to some of the bandaging and gently tapped away at the cuts on the girl's face, removing any glass she could see on it. [/i]
-
Now that Nat was a bit closer she could notice the strangeness of the woman's eyes, how one was a normal bright blue and the other a strange orange. "The sink should probably do. Thank you for all of this. I don't think I really deserve it, but...eh. I'll take it."
-
[i]"Hold on, what's with your eyes?" Natalie asked, tilting her head slightly and giving a perplexed look to her. [/i]
-
"Wha-Oh!" Her eyes both now became a light blue. "Nothing. Probably just the lighting or something. Hey, where is the sink?" She rolled of the couch and stood up.
-
[i]"In the kitchen..." Natalie said, shaking off a feeling of suspicion as she sat down on the couch. "Towels are in the hallway closet."[/i]
-
"Thanks." She went off for a few minutes before coming back, drying her hair with a towel. Her jacket was now tied around her waist, revealing an old Guns N'Roses '88 tour shirt. "These clothes are going to smell like sh*t for a while sadly..."
-
[i]"I think my clothes might be a bit big on you, but do you need something to wear?" Natalie was only a few inches taller than the woman, though her clothes were extremely tight in a lot of cases, since she usually had some sort of hoodie to wear. Though she was willing to offer something up. [/i]
-
"I think I'll be fine unless you'd rather not have me stinking up the place with the smell of a low quality bar. Oh, the name's Star by the way. We haven't really told each other our names." Star sat down on the couch with a sigh of relief.
-
[i]"Natalie, though you would probably know me as "That bîtch!" If you ask around the building," Nat jokingly responded, as she went to the fridge in the kitchen. "Want a drink?" [/i]
-
Star light chuckled at the joke. "May I have some water? I think I've had enough beer for tonight...or at least I'm taking a break for an hour or so. I probably have a problem."
-
[i]"Alright, but if your 'water' later tonight leaves a burn in the back of your throat, don't say I didn't warn you." Natalie got Star a bottle of water after pouring herself some coke. She sat down on the couch once more and handed Star her drink, leaning back afterwards. "So, what happened in the bar with those guys?" [/i]
-
Star happily took the water with a smile and drank from it before shrugging and telling her story. "I dunno really. I mean, I just maybe sorta overreacted to one of them catcalling and maybe sorta broke a chair over his head....Then kneed another one of them in the nuts because he came at me and then threw my glass at another...." She slowly took a sip of her water and looked down at the ground. "I was totally in control as you could see."
-
[i]"I can tell, only someone in complete control of a situation and themself would do that." Natalie chuckled slightly and took a sip from her drink. "How did you get so badly beaten if you hit one over the head with a chair?" [/i]
-
Star shook her head and laughed. "There were a lot of them and I only got in a few hits because I struck first. I don't exactly punch very hard or well. I like to stick to my guns when it comes to a fight."
-
[i]"Because screw the police who try to follow up on random shootings in the night, right?" [/i]
-
"I could've beat them easily if I used my guns, but no one had to die over something so stupid. This also wasn't the first nor will it be the last time I get my pretty face punched in."
-
[i]"Why do you say that?"[/i]
-
"I seem to only attract people that want to punch my face in. I dunno. Ask one of the so called gods. Maybe one of them know why the f*ck I'm cursed."
-
[i]"I mean, I don't want to punch you yet and we're hanging out, I'd say that not everyone wants to punch your pretty face right?" [/i]
-
Star laughed a little. "I exaggerated just a tad, okay?"
-
[i]"I hadn't noticed," Nat jokingly shot back. [/i]
-
"Pfff. Suuure." Star nudged Nat a little with a smile.
