"Good morning." Jian replied. "How do you feel?... And by the way, your jacket..."

"I'm good" Damien said, then looked down to the clothes he was wearing. The dictator then chuckled. "Oh, it's a funny story actually. I believe Shadow has it. I wonder if she's awake yet" he said.

"Should I... ask?" Jian asked, looking extremely confused.
Shadow slowly woke up, stretching as she did, her first still tightly around Damien's jacket. She looked around in a haze, wondering what had happened the night before. Over at the desk, she saw Lianne sleeping, her head on a book while her glasses were bent awkwardly over her face.

"I couldn't sleep last night, so Lianne took me to go see Shadow. While I was close to her she grabbed my sleeve, possibly for warmth, and wouldn't let go. She was sleeping and recovering from her wound, so I didn't want to disturb her. All I could do was take off the jacket and let her keep it" Damien said, standing up. He fixed his tie and smoothed out the creases in his shirt. "I suppose I should go see if I can get it back now."

"Alright then." Jian replied. "I guess I'll accompany you. After all, it's safer in a group then alone."

Damien nodded. He grabbed his gloves and began heading out to where Shadow was.

Jian followed behind with another guard following behind them just in case something happened. As they arrived at the door, Jian turned to Damien. 'Isn't this... the grand priestess's room?' He thought, but kept quiet.

"Well with the assailants still around, it's a safe spot to keep her. I've heard that one was arrested, but there was another attack, which means there's more than one" Damien said as they entered.

"True. I heard something similar this morning." Jian replied.
The guards had rotated from the night before, two standing by Lianne, who was still sleeping at her desk, and another by Shadow.
Shadow yawned, seeing Damien and Jian entering the room. "This is weird. Where am I?" She asked. "This isn't... another weird dream is it?"
"It is, oh great magical fairy princess." Jian said before anyone else could reply.

Damien snorted. "Oh, by the way. You have something of mine. I want it back, please" Damien said, referring to his uniform jacket. Shadow might notice he was just in a shirt and tie.

"What are you talking ab..." She began, looking down where his jacket was still in her hands. "WAHH!!" She stuttered with complete shock as she tossed the jacket into the air as if it had a giant spider on it. "... The heck is this!?" She yelled, turning a deep red.

"It's a long story, but I'm sure the Grand Priestess can explain everything to you once she wakes up" Damien said with a smirk, picking up his jacket and dusting it off.

"What did you do to me!?" She demanded, about to jump up when she felt a slight tug on her elbow and also her side ached. She turned pale when she saw the needle in her arm and lightly touched her side. She lightly lifted the tube that injected liquids into her and grimaced.

"Me? I didn't do anything. Now what would give you such an idea?" Damien said, cruelly teasing the last part as he buttoned up his jacket. He then walked over to the Grand Priestess and shook her slightly. "Grand Priestess? The patient is awake" he said.

"You know exactly why I have that idea." Shadow snapped.
Lianne didn't budge. She was sleeping soundly despite the yelling and uncomfortable position she was in.
"Mr. Blackrose, please remove your hand." One of the guards said, both looking as if they would not hesitate to slice off his head then and there.
"Woah. A bit tense are we?" Shadow asked.
"Because of incidents in the past, the only time anyone is permitted to touch her is through customary measures or if she allows it. This is especially for men." The first guard said sharply.
"Not to mention the Grand Priestess often overworks herself and doesn't sleep as much as she should. Part of our protecting her is to make sure she is maintaining her health despite her taxing schedule."
