I will find you...

[willalwaysfindyou]

Who: Prince Charming, Snow White, and Yamanaka Ino
What: Charming’s arrival
When: Now
Where: Lobby!
Rating: PG-13 for blood, I guess?

The world was slipping from him, growing more and more distant. He could feel the blood escaping the wound. He watched numbly as the Queen’s men broke into the wardrobe… empty. The corners of his mouth quirked up slightly. Empty. She made it. She would find them.

The pain was becoming unbearable. He felt himself fading, his eyelids fighting to stay open. His eyes closed and opened. Were he not bleeding out on the floor of the lobby, he would probably be wondering where he was and how he got there. The question flittered faintly in his mind, but all was throbbing pain.

Charming looks a little troubled. If she wasn't done yet, was the price to be paid later?

"What do I owe you for your magic?"

He might as well cut to the chase.

"Owe me?" Ino blinked, confused. She doesn't really get what his expression means -- maybe magic is feared or forbidden where he comes from? So she'll try to reassure him.

"Well, first of all, it's not magic, but -- you don't owe me anything."

"Oh." Well, that certainly catches him by surprise.

"Where we come from, magic always comes with a price.

"What is it, if it's not magic?"

That's just about as important as what kind of price could possibly be extracted for all of this. She also doesn't really believe that there isn't a catch of some sort.

"It's kind of hard to explain ... " Ino sighed, making sure Charming made it up the stairs and onto the second floor before continuing. "But every person is made up of cells, right? I can use my own energy to sort of ... force another person's cells to regrow faster, and in the way that I want them to."
