Lusalma gasped in more breath, ready to begin another scream when Phee grabbed her. Shocked at the sudden contact Lusalma looked to the side and saw Phee standing there, looking wild and worried. Eyes misting slightly at the worry evident in her friends eyes Lusalma sniffled quietly and grabbing Alak firmly reached up to wipe her eyes quickly with the other arm.
Relieved to know that she was not alone in worry of her friends she looked up at Phee and was opening her mouth to respond when she realized...where was Alana? Looking forward frantically Lusalma caught the bare edge of Alans cloths vanishing into the distance. Worried Lusalma looked up at Phee and feeling her eyes start to mist again, this time in worry, Lusalma firmed her chin and blurted in a slightly scratchy voice, "I was just walking beside Alak and Alana when I started hearing some music, and I saw the herb shop from before so I was slightly curious so I didn't notice immediately but..." Here Lusalma paused to think and to collect herself and realized that Alak had been hurt in some emotional manner to do what he did and Alana had been entranced or some such...this made her angry, she didn't like her friends being hurt...so Lusalma continued explaining in a low and slightly dark voice "Alak started hurting and Alana kept on going, she didn't seem to notice it, like she was entranced...but Alana started getting farther and farther ahead...and now she's almost gone, but Alak was hurting and he was out of it and I was worried..." More emotional over the recounting of the events and the renewal of worry Lusalma leaned slightly against Phee, glad to have someone who was unaffected and who cared...even if she didn't seem to hear the music...which seemed to be growing louder in defiance of her earlier scream. Lusalma felt a stirring of hot warmth flare in her chest...heralding a slow but hot burn of her rising temper.
