[Noah's has had a lot of pain in his life. From monster fights the last few months, fights at school, circus related accidents, and all the incidents that happened before all that - the days he hated thinking about. He was a reckless and impulsive kid, injuries came hand in hand with that. He was used to pain.
But, it's been a long time since he's been in this level of pain. The pain so bad that you can't keep your mind straight, that the thoughts of death start coming into your mind. Was this how it was going to end for him? On some street side he doesn't know, from a monster that wasn't even there? No...he didn't want to die like this....
A memory starts coming into his mind. It was some room he didn't know. That Miranda woman was there, and so was that girl he saw in Ryoji's house- she's with monsters. Akuma. He feels like he's in complete agony. It's hard to tell what's his pain and what's the pain from the memory, they bleed together. He can feel Allen's feelings- they're so much like his: scared, confused. There's upset and anger in him too, but Noah can't tell what that's about.
But Miranda, she's so frightened. She has no way to protect herself. The girl summons sharp candlesticks to shoot at her. Allen doesn't think, he moves to shield Miranda, even as several of the candles pierce his flesh. He manages to pull out the spike that was pinning her hand, before he goes limp from all his pain.
He can hear Miranda's frightened pleads, but by now Sorey's rushed over to him and is making his own pleads. They are bleeding into one another, when Noah can't make out who is who, or where he is. What pain is real, what is remembered...
But both are so scared. He'll try to smile, through the pain, to try to reassure them.]
It's...It's all right...
[It's not clear who said it, Allen or Noah. It doesn't help that he's clearly half-out of it, and struggling to even remain conscious.]
[ Yu is moving on sheer adrenaline and dogged determination after that phone call. His emotions, a tangle of low horrible screaming in his chest, he locks into the back of his mind to acknowledge later, deal with later. Right now all of him is stoic calm, reacting to a crisis in the only way he's ever known how.
Shut himself away from the world and figure it out later, alone.
True to his word, if Sorey keeps his eyes on the sky, Yu will soon appear -- or, rather, an enormous gold dragon will appear. As it approaches the theater it dives down towards the street, and Sorey will be able to spot the boy on its back.
Yu leaps off his Persona ten feet off the ground and doesn't even stumble. He instead rolls and pops immediately to his feet, already running over, a montage of battles playing in his mind's eye. Monsters, darkness, blood - it all feels so familiar his body reacts without him needing to think.
And then he's there, a hand on Sorey's arm as he peers down into Noah's face. ]
You're both going to be just fine. Noah, try and stay awake.
[ The Mediarahan spell that washes over all three of them should feel like a cool balm against burning wounds. Yu casts it twice in rapid succession, ignoring the sucking feeling of exhaustion that yaws open in his gut, threatening to swallow him from the inside out. Later. Deal with it later. ]
Sorey, I can take Noah straight to the hospital. Do you want to follow us?
[Noah is still conscious, it seems, but he must be really out of it. The smile is unexpected and it breaks his heart. After hanging up (look to the sky, what) he focuses instead on Noah, cradling him carefully and close to keep him warm. The last thing Sorey wants is for his student to go into shock.]
Y-yeah. It'll be all right. Yu's coming, I know he can help.
[It feels like an eternity until Yu breaks the silence with the sound of dragon wings. Sorey shields his eyes with his elbow and then his eyes grow wide. This isn't the dragon that Minako summoned, but it's still incredible. The pang of fear he feels is replaced with awe as Yu swiftly dismounts.]
Uh-- [That's magic. It feels like magic, a cool wave washing over him that makes him ache for his other half. Hopefully Mikleo is home safe like he should be-- but back to Noah.] T-thanks, that really helps.
[He nods and firmly grounds himself in the present.]
I can go back for my car and follow you on the ground. [He eyes the dragon.] Unless you want me to come with?
[Sorey got sliced up too, but Yu's healing seems to have stalled any bleeding. Noah's definitely the priority. Sorey moves to pick him up fireman-style, but he may need some help.]
[Out of it is a good way to put it. He vaguely knows he's being held -- but the person holding him keeps flickering in his eyes. Sometimes it's Sorey, sometimes it's Miranda. Either way, their words seem rather far away- he can only get the gist. Miranda's terrified, Sorey's being reassuring.
It's only when Yu flies in on his dragon does the memory fade enough for him to be fully in the present. Though nothing makes you question if you're out of it like your friend riding in on a goddamn dragon.]
T-The fuck...? A fucking dragon? Shit Yu...
[He still manages to say weakly , clearly out of it. The magic washes over him, easing up some of the pain, and sealing up many of the wounds. But he's still lost a lot of blood- it's kinda all over the pavement. Not to mention his face is a mess right now. There's no question that he's going to need to see a hospital.]
