She clung to Jake, sighing. "yeah, I met the bone-fucked chick. Her name is Klaire. She takes those medicines to keep her alive based on some inner voice she's got in her. I'm not sure if that'll help any" she said. She hugged Jake, thinking of what would happen from here.

"She seems like a very reliable source of information either way," Jake said. He kept his arms around Eminor. "How are you feeling? Still light headed? Your nose stopped bleeding, so I think that's a good sign."

"I want a change of clothes", she said, still hugging Jake. "I'm starting to feel a bit better now though", she added, smiling up at him.

Johnny had watched them in the distance, taking in every word they said. Somehow, he had felt out of place. Like a trespasser that didn't belong. Leaning against the door, Johnny said, "Hey kid, I think that girl you were referring to a moment ago is Anya. She's still around, somewhere. She helped me save Roth not too long ago.".

"Hey Johnny." Arqus suddenly, interjected, standing up. "Can we talk in private? There's something I wanna tell you actually."
He's been thinking about it. He can't believe he forgot. There was a guy who Bremmen faced a few days ago. The same guy who bombed the skyscraper. It was only him, Bremmen and Trace who encountered him first hand.
Arqus thought he should let Johnny know about him and what happened back. Maybe he was also wondering where Trace is.

Viscum exited the room still holding the results under his arm, intending to give them to Maz at the first sight of him, providing that the group he arrived with did so soon. He wasn't too fond of remaining in the same place for too long, he'd had plenty of time doing that during his imprisonment. Viscum walked back to the waiting room and sat down in a seat close to the check in desk and facing the entrance.
"Busy day?" he asked one of the nurses, not surprised when he didn't receive an answer. While he had learnt how to communicate with the mindless with relative ease they weren't very good sources of conversation, having no personal opinion and all. Viscum saw a pen on the floor in front of him, one of the mindless having likely dropped it. He held a hand out and instantly the pen flew into. He grasped the pen as it entered his hand before placing in back onto the check in desk.

Eminor stared, a far-away look in her eyes, but she wasn't thinking of anything. She was simply staring. She leaned her head on Jake and sighed. "Can we go home now?", she asked everyone in a soft, hollow voice.

Johnny looked at Arqus and said, "Sure, man. Lets head outside, I need a smoke.". Johnny exited the room with Arqus and motioned outside.

"Yes we can Eminor. We can take you home, and then you can get changed into some clean clothes, and you can take a bath, and we can do whatever you want afterwards," Jake said reassuringly, breaking the embrace and helping her to her feet.

Eminor nodded, and leaned on him for support. As they walked out of the hospital, she leaned to him and whispered, "Can I hold your hand, Jakie?", while reaching for his hand again.

Jake resisted the urge to raise an eyebrow at the strange request. "Sure, go ahead," he finally answered with a smile. Was she attracted to him? Now was not the time for pondering. He would do that later. He extended his hand for her to hold.

She took his hand silently, and started walking back to her apartment again. Halfway there, she lost the remaining energy she had left. Panting, she knelt onto the floor, wheezing.

Jake was concerned for Eminor's health. He lifted her off of the ground, carrying her in his arms. "We're halfway there, Emmy," Jake said reassuringly.

She sighed. Resting on him, she closed her eyes, trying not to fall asleep. "Jakie, when we go home,", she paused for breath, "Can I get a glass of water?". She looked up at him.

"Of course, I'm not the one who regulates what you can and can't have," Jake said with a smile, brushing some of her hair from her face. It only took a few minutes more for them to arrive at the apartment. Taking the key from her pocket, he opened the door and set her on the couch.
