Kyouya had wasted no time. Still crouched at her side, he'd followed up his phone call to the paramedics with another call to Arillena's father, as promised. He was in the process of explaining the state of affairs as crisply and concisely as he could, when he caught the sound of sirens, and the ambulance pulled to a halt across the grass. He rose with a wave, indicating, over here, and remained on the line so that he could let her father know exactly what was going on, if necessary.

Xing listen intently to the young man's description of the problem at hand as he searched his desk for his car keys. "And then she collapsed?" He repeated to confirm. "This kind of thing has happened to her before, she'll have a form of nightmare and faint- but Ari will typically wake up moment later. Has she moved at all?" From what he understood, is appeared that 'Allyra' had become aware of their condition and panicked. "What is the name of the hospital nearest to your location?" He asked. "I can meet you there as soon as possible." A faint voice in the background. "It's Ari, she's collapsed and won't wake up. I'm going to go and see her now, don't worry."~~~ Still unaware of where she was, Ari felt as if she were floating. Many voices faded in and out of her head. Many she didn't recognize and only a few she did. Those familiar voices she couldn't put a face or name too. It's warm here... When did I get here? Her semi-conscious faded again into a sleep like trance.

"Yes, she collapsed, and no, she has not awoken yet. She will be taken to the Ootori Bunkyo Hospital," Kyouya informed Arillena's father, as he was well aware of which facility was the closest, and he had called for his people. The EMTs had arrived on the scene, and he cupped a hand over the receiver as he began to answer their questions, giving them her name and all that had happened since he'd been talking with her. No, he didn't think she was suicidal. Yes, her father had told him she had split personality problems, some time ago. He was on the phone if they needed to talk with him ... ? Not at the moment, apparently, but the news that he would be headed to the hospital seemed welcome. They lifted Arillena onto the gurney with strong yet careful hands, making sure she was safely secured, and gestured to the young man to take the spare seat inside the back compartment. He did so without arguing, buckling himself in next to Arillena as he began to relay to her father again. "We'll be leaving momentarily, and should probably be there within the next five minutes." The back doors slammed shut, and the ambulance slowly began to gather speed.

Xing guaranteed his wife and son that everything would be okay as he speedily went outside and got in his car. "Right, I'll be there As soon as I can." He said. Xing hung up and headed for the Hospital Kyouya mentioned. ~~ As the ambulance drove away a Dragonfly hovered where the girl once lay collapsed. It sped off in pursuit. ~~ Ari appeared paler than usual, if she had opened her eyes they would have been gray. However, She was still breathing normally. One of the younger Medics in the back with them said, "Don't worry Miss, Everything is going to be okay. Can you hear me?" She was a new employee, and had been roped into this event not so much by choice. Still, she wanted to do what she could. She looked over at Kyouya, she didn't recognize. "Has this ever happened to her before?" She asked as they pulled around the Hospital Building.

"I'm told it has, though not to this extent," Kyouya explained to the young nurse. "According to her father, she normally wakes very quickly after one of these collapses, so that she's still unconscious is somewhat unusual." He gave a quick outline of what he knew about Arillena's split personality disorder to the medic, explaining about the pair of times he'd met Allyra and about the conversation the two of them had had before she'd collapsed. "I haven't seen her transition between the two personalities, though," he added as a caveat. "Looking back, I assume that a few of the times before she changed personalities, she started feeling ill and departed from the room before anything happened."

As the ambulance came to a quick stop, The medic nodded as she relayed the information briefly to another as the back doors opened. They carried Arillena's stretcher around and into the building. The Young Nurse turned back to Kyouya before following them. "We're taking her into the Emergency room. If anything changes or if she awakes we will let you know. Until them I'm going to have to ask you to take a seat in the waiting room." Still unaware who the Tall boy was she pointed him in the direction of the room in question. "When Miss FaeDathanna's Father arrives let someone know immediately. Thank you." She bowed quickly and moved to catch up with the rest of the paramedics. ~~ Almost 5 minutes later Xing pulled into the Parking lot and exited his car. Huh, Getting a weird sense of Deja vu... He thought as he walked through the glass doors. ~~ Ari was taken into The emergency room briskly. Her consciousness faded in and out once again. Unfamiliar voices spoke rapidly to each other. Something feels familiar... Have I done this before? It took several moment before the elf registered the memory. Oh... This is like the first time I woke up. How did I get here? The voices began to blend with voices from her memories. "There's some activity in her Brain waves. Almost like she's dreaming."...is she sick?... she's so pale..."Any response in her senses?"...maybe she's abandoned..."No Sir, She still hasn't moved." ...must be a runaway..."Wait! I think her eyes just fluttered a bit." ...lock her up, she isn't safe anymore..."Did she just say something?"...she's got to be a monster, no human can be that disastrous..."Miss Arillena, Can you hear me?"...Completely Mad that girl is, no wonder she's got no family...It was then That Arillena screamed.

"I'll be sure to do so," Kyouya reassured the nurse as she left. He redirected himself to the waiting room, calmly informing the receptionist that one Miss Arillena FaeDathanna was one of his classmates and that he expected that the Ootori hospital would live up to its stellar reputation. That done, he took a seat and waited patiently, as instructed, and as a courtesy for her father. When Xing arrived, he rose to greet him with a polite bow and to escort him personally. "Kanade-san, Arillena is in the emergency ro -- " He was cut off by the sound of a scream, high-pitched and female. Although he was not usually given to strong reaction, even so, his head whipped around automatically. Was that -- ?

Xing nodded automatically as Kyouya began to explain the situation. But before he could open his mouth to respond the scream reached his ears. The Older man's head turned just as fast as the Student's had. "Ari!" He bolted to the entrance but was met by one of the larger male nurses who refused to let him pass. "I'm sorry sir we cannot have anyone back here at this tim-" "I just heard my Daughter Cry out, What is happening to Arillena? You must let me see her." Xing said hurriedly. The younger nurse from before exited from the other side of the waiting room and sighed. They had made her leave the room after the Elf-like girl began to panic. Which she honestly did not mind as the girl had began to frighten the intern. She noticed Kyouya and The older man and over heard his plea. "Are you FaeDathanna's Father?" She asked. "Arillena appears to be reacting wildly as if responding to a nightmare or hallucination." She did her best to explain calmly. She glanced at the taller nurse for confirmation. "Her father should be allowed to go back with her... Right?"

The taller nurse seemed perhaps a touch displeased to be contradicted, but relented in the face of truth and a possible solution. "Yes, he should. A familiar face and voice may help her." He turned to admit Xing into the emergency room. Ever controlled, Kyouya had nevertheless had taken a half-step, arms folded casually, and turned to watch when Xing had dashed across the room. There was a soft request in the way he held himself -- one that read Please keep me informed. I'm available if needed. Not one to pull family status unless necessary -- and not sure if he even was necessary at this point -- he nevertheless did feel some obligation, and if he were to admit it, some concern.

Nodding, the taller man silently accepted Kyouya request. He followed Xing behind the emergency room doors guiding him to the proper room. The young nurse stayed in the waiting room. She suddenly realized she was still trembling. "So strange..." She mumbled. "I've never seen anything like that before..."Meanwhile Xing hastily followed the nurse to the proper room. As he made his way inside the man assured the other doctors that he was a relative- But Xing couldn't hear anything. Not only was he slightly deafened by the rampaged shouts of Arillena but his heart fell at the sight of her. There were four nurses holding down her arms and legs as she flailed. "STOP. PLEASE! YOUR HURTING HER! DON'T LOCK ME ALONE IN THE DARK! I DON'T WANT TO BE ALONE." She continued to shout as if having a conversation with herself. Xing was at her side immediately, replacing one of the nurses. "Arillena can you hear me? It's me It's your Dad!" He cried out to her. At the sound of his voice Ari''s struggle weakened only slightly, and her shouts faded to mere whispering. She opened her eyes in horror. They were grey and empty. "The darkness... It closes in. The Silence... It tortured us for so long." Many of the professionals looked at each other in confusion. Xing reached out and gentle caressed her hair. "It's alright Sweetie, It's Alright. You're not alone anymore." Her eyes darted toward him, in the light they almost appeared to reflect black. "Never been alone, never been alone, never been alone" She repeated. Suddenly she tensed up again and tears began streaming down the sides of her head. "She's never been alone the silence has always been around her just like before- never to escape what has been scarred into the soul." "What is she talking about?" Someone asked. "It sounds like a nightmare- she's had this before..." Xing began. Ari's right arm broke free and she swung at the doctor holding her down. "Gah! Smith! What is taking so long?" He cried out attempting to hold her down again. A short man came rushing in with a syringe. "Wh-whats that for?" Xing asked. "Don't worry, It will calm her down." The man reassured. In a matter of seconds Ari had the injection stuck in her arm and she immediately slowed her struggle. Her eyes Darted around. "..ne...ever been... alone..." Her eye lids fluttered. The Black going back to grey before they closed. "Ari. Don't worry, you're going to be okay. Daddy's here." Her breathing slowed to normal but tears still fell without fault. She muttered something. "Ari?""...She's gone... Allyra... Is gone..."~~~ "Her brain activity has returned to normal. We will keep her monitored for another day just in case but... She should be fine once she wakes up." The doctor said as Xing approached the waiting room again. "As soon as we have her in a proper room we will send for you at once. In the mean time we recommend alerting Any Schools or Workplaces of her absence. We'll be right with you." Xing nodded and exited back into the room He had left Kyouya in. He was Slightly Surprised that the young man was still there. But it didn't show. "They've sedated her, and we should be able to see her again once they relocated her to a different room."

Kyouya nodded quietly. He had been debating whether or not to take his leave; his job here seemed to be done, after all. "I'm glad to hear she'll be well," he said, carefully polite. "If she's sedated, it will be a while before she wakes. I'll make sure that her homework arrives, if that's acceptable?" he inquired. It would be no difficulty; he was on good terms with virtually everyone at Ouran.

Xing nodded. "That would be very helpful, Yes. Thank you Ootori-San." He gave a tired smile. "I can imagine when she does awake she'll be very disoriented. I will have to let her know what has happened before she panics again." He said more to himself then anyone else. "I don't know how long she'll be here but.. I cannot thank you enough." Xing bowed respectively. "Had you not of been there... I don't want to think about what could have happened." He straightened himself out and held out a hand. "I can imagine you have things to do. It was an honor to meet you given the circumstances. Perhaps next time will be on more cheerful terms?" "Oh and one more thing, I believe you are antiquated with a... Ms. Rayonant and Mr. Nekozawa? Arillena had plans to meet with them today. If she hadn't already gone to see them could you let them know that she's alright?"

Arillena Xing nodded. "That would be very helpful, Yes. Thank you Ootori-San." He gave a tired smile. "I can imagine when she does awake she'll be very disoriented. I will have to let her know what has happened before she panics again." He said more to himself then anyone else. "I don't know how long she'll be here but.. I cannot thank you enough."

Arillena had plans to meet with them today. If she hadn't already gone to see them could you let them know that she's alright?""You're welcome. It was the least I could do." Kyouya took the older man's hand with a grip that was quietly assertive -- not aggressive, but confident considering his youth and position. "I certainly do hope things will be better the next time we meet. And I'll be glad to contact Shiny-san and Nekozawa-senpai. It's no trouble at all." He offered Xing a polite bow and a smile before taking his leave, that sharp mind of his already working on the new puzzle set in front of him. Shiny and Nekozawa? Together? That was the last combination he'd ever expect. And what was Arillena supposed to meet them over? Curious. Very curious. Wait, perhaps not together -- Xing hadn't specified. Hm. Well, he had a perfectly good reason to contact them, if nothing else. And news that a friend was in the hospital was not one that should be delivered via text. He withdrew his cell phone on the way to the parking lot -- and then realized that his driver likely had no idea where he was. Probably best to remedy that first. A few moments later ... "Hotta? It's me. ... At the Bunkyo Hospital." There was a sharp exclamation from the other end. "No, I'm fine. It was a classmate. .... Yes, please. Ten minutes? Perfect. I'll be at the front door." He leaned against one of the tall columns supporting the massive entrance to the hospital. Ending the first call, he debated which of the two to call first. He wasn't aware of Nekozawa's cell phone habits, but Shiny was usually available. If they were potentially together, then calling her would likely mean that he could pass the information on to both of them at the same time. He scrolled quickly through the hosts' call list and brought up her number, touching the "talk" button.

((Just gonna throw this in here...))
When Ari slowly began to open her eyes, her body felt weak. ...What happened... She tried to remember. !!! "Shiny, is she okay?" She tried to say as she sat up, but before she could even manage her friends name she felt lightheaded. A gentle hand caught her before she fell backwards. "Huh?" The elf turned to see who it was. "D-Dad? What's going on? W-where are- Where are we?" Her father smiled and calmly explained what happened. Ari listened quietly, piecing what Xing told her together with the strange dream she had. She smiled. Ari looked around to the door as a young woman came in. "Oh You're awake~ That was quicker than expected, here have a drink of water." The nurse carefully handed her a small plastic cup. "Thank you." Ari smiled. This woman seemed familiar somehow. She turned to Xing. "Mr. Kanade? The Doctor would like to have a word with you if you don't mind. I'll keep an eye on Arillena for you." Xing nodded though slightly confused, and met with the doctor in the hallway. The older man held a bandage to his face and Xing realized he was the one Ari had slashed at during her fit.
"I'm terribly sorry for-" he began but the man stopped him. "Don't worry, I can say that worse has happened during this job." He said with a kind smile. "I had wanted to inform you about something that we found interesting..." He handed Xing a folder. "These are the medical records we pulled from where your family usually visits for medical purposes... and this-" He opened a second folder. "Is something one of our secretaries stumbled upon while research your daughter's previous condition."
Xing over looked the file carefully and quickly. It appeared that the orphanage that They had adopted Arillena was connected to another building where a young girl named Aria had suffered similar behaviors. The girl had shifted between two personalities that eventually drove her mad, and every Orphanage or Hospital she was sent to eventually suffered an odd catastrophe. The Doctor continued. "We found this curious so we did a little digging on this 'Aria' child and found a Picture." The next page of the File had a black and white picture of a young girl with thin white hair and empty grey eyes. The child ear were also significantly elvish. "Are you telling me that this is Arillena?" Xing asked. The doctor shook his head. "Unlikely, That image was taken around the date that the Camera was first invented. Approximately 1820." Xing found this unbelivable- but for reasons the doctor would never guess. "Arillena was adopted correct? It is possible that this child is- was a distant relative or ancestor of hers." Xing nodded. "That would make the most sense. They are the spitting image of each other... Wait." Xing looked up. "You just said, 'Was'? I take it this girl has passed away by now?" The doctor shook his head. "There are no death records. All that we have is information of Aria's last Asylum's location. It had burned down you see- shortly after The girl was admitted. They never found her body."
"Thank you for sharing this with me." Xing said as he shook the doctors hand. As he reentered his daughter room Ari smiled up at him, Her eyes bluer than ever before. The nurse sitting next to her looked up as well. "She's recovering remarkably well." She said with a smile. "We may be able to let her go home earlier than originally thought." She stood up and shook Ari's hand. "It was nice talking to you Arillena. I wish you a even speedier recovery." Ari beamed. "Thank you Miss Aurora." The Woman blinked. "That's... That's My grandmother's name..." She giggled slightly. "Perhaps you've met her? I've been told we look alike." The Woman bowed and left the room.
In the window of the sat a silver dragonfly. Ari felt a warm voice in her head. "Just rest Aria. Shiny is okay. And Kyouya went to let them know where you are." Faolan told her, Ari nodded and lay her head back. She closed her eyes and smiled as she noticed the Silence was missing. Thank you Allyra...

Ootori_K He scrolled quickly through the hosts' call list and brought up her number, touching the "talk" button. It had only been an hour or two since Allyra had fled from Shiny's garden, and the fallen star was still very much riding the incredible high that came from having been so fully restored. Nekozawa was still at her place, enjoying the black forest cake she'd tempted him with and talking about his family's history, since there wasn't much she felt comfortable telling about the Court. It was supposed to be a secret among mortals, after all. When her phone rang she was surprised to see it was Kyouya calling, but quickly accepted the call nonetheless, her voice light as she spoke, " Bonsoir, bonhomme! To what do I owe the pleasure?"
