Misa hurt. Everywhere.[/i] Her arms, her legs, her neck, her head. Oh God, how her head hurt.
She opened her eyes blearily, fighting against the horrifyingly bright light, to see hazy shapes that ducked and dived in an ineligible manner. She stopped resisting and allowed them to remain shut.
The lights stopped bothering her, but the pain wouldn't go. And what was so much worse was Misa could feel it, in her heart and mind, and knew it was far more than any hospital (where she presumed she was as it certainly wasn't the dorms) could fix.
She groaned softly.
She heard a vaguely familiar voice whisper something unintelligible above her. Then again little was intelligible at the moment. Her amulet was nearly visibly vibrating against her chest she could feel it. That was a danger sign - it meant her own strength was failing her. Yet she couldn't bring herself to care...the will to make it matter just wasn't hers. Will. That was who the voice belonged to. She recognised the soft curl at the end of each phrase.
"Will..." She whispered, struggling to sit up. Then it came flooding back to her. The arena. Her triumph. The Fire.
So that explained the horrid burning feeling on her arms and chest, that was where she'd struck the fire, then.

"Oh my," Will was quite queasy when she looked at Misa. Her jumper had melted into her skin.
"Simon, could you come and help me with this and bring Madam Gornray!" she called.
A few minutes passed and they both arrived.
"How do we get this of her?" Will asked.
"Hmm...We wil.." Madam Gornray started to explain how to go about it.
Will kept her hands on Misa thw whole way through and eased the pain.
"Simon, get the morphine now!" Will urged him.
"Right," Simons footsteps were heard the whole way along the corridor.
"It's ok Misa, everyhting's goign to be okay..." Will then caught a glimpse of something more than burns.
It couldn't be?
"Scars," Will breathed. Deep scars that were healing and some that were half way there.
"Misa, what have you been doing?" Will breathed.

She didn't understand what Will meant, surely she could see what had happened? The pain started to become hazy, or maybe her mind did, it was hard to tell. The world seemed to be making an attempt at slipping away from her, but there was no way that Misa was going to let that happen.
"Will, it really hurts,"she whispered, feeling like a tiny child wanting someone to make the pain 'Go Away'.

"It's ok Misa, it'll be over soon. SIMON WHERE IS THAT MORPHINE?!" Will soothed Misa and shouted at Simon.
"Got it," he panted gving it to her.
Will took it of him and injected it into a tube which was linked to Misa's arm.
"There we go, that should make it better," she turned to face Simon and a few other carers, "Go get some cold wet towels, cling film and buckets of cold water," she then turned to the matron, "It's ok Madam, I think I can handle it from here,"
Madam Gornray smiled sweetly at her, "Ok, but if you need anything don't hesitate to call me,"
"I won't, thank you," Will called after her.
As soon as every one came back with everything Will had asked for she put them to work.
"Right, gently and slowly pour the water over her and then get the towels and wrap them around her arms and drape them over her front, we'll then put the cling film over the top of it,"
It took about 15 minutes and a few shreiks of pain from Misa and a morphine increase (slightly).
"We'll fix you up, the pain should becoming less now?" Will sat on the bed beside her.

As the carers worked Misa tried to contain the pain, she was well practiced but soon after the morphine injection she started to feel more lucid - less in control of herself. Before it set in properly she couldn't help screaming slightly as her own clothes were ripped away from where they had become attached, melded by the fire so their fibres and her skin had joined agonisingly. She could feel the horrible rawness their absence created.
She vaguely knew this bareness on her torso should have mattered to her, but then the morphine took it's toll completely and she couldn't remember why she was suppose to care and besides they were putting cold things over her wounds and it felt nice and the pain became a soft buzz at the back of her skull and she smiled thankfully at Will who was sitting on the bed next to her now.
"Thank you," She said, lifting (with what felt like extraordinary effort) one hand and resting in on Will's arm.

"Ah it's fine, the least I can do after my fire, ahem, burned you and caused this much pain," Will patted Misa's hand.
She looked at Misa who seemed to be in a daze but she knew that was just the morphine taking hold of her.
"In heaven yet?" Will asked jokingly.

"Hmm..." She murmured in response. "S'kay, I sorta des-deserved it really..."Her speech slurred together slightly as she responded to Will's apology. She stopped speaking as she saw the odd look Will was giving her.

Will was staring at Misa's neck. A huge scar that was ahlfway to being healed lay across it.
"Here, let me heal that properly," Will lifted her hand over the scar and healed it but when she did she saw more a a tiny bit down. Over her shoulders and dissappeared.
She took a deep breath and let it out again before speaking, "Misa, how did you get those?" Will feared the worse.

Misa watched in a near trance as Will placed a palm on her neck and she felt an odd tingling sensation pass across her throat. She assumed it was just part of Will's healing, perhaps she'd burnt part of her neck or something. Then she heard Will take a very deep breath and ask a question that stopped her heart,
"Misa, how did you get those?"
Suddenly she felt wide-awake, adrenaline rushing through her body like a stream through a ravine. Like blood from a fatal wound.
Her scars. How could she have just forgotten like that? What on earth could she say?
"What? That's nothing, nothing at all."She stuttered sitting up with gargantuan effort.

"Misa, don't try and lie, how did you get these?" Will kept her voice low and leveled but her heart was racing.
Her mum had self harmed. She hoped that Misa wasn't the same.

"Will it really is none of your business!" Misa snapped, feeling like an animal backed into a corner. Will would never understand...

"Misa, please tell me, I'm not going to say anything or tell anyone. How did this happen?"

Misa sighed deeply - she had a rough knowledge of language, even if her russian was weak, and none of that had been partiularly positive, regardless of its attempt at being reassuring.
"Will, you won't, you can't possibly think you could understand."
This really was too much, she could feel it become increasingly difficult as time progressed and the drugs kicked in, to hold her point. She had to leave, get away from here...Blindly she began to tear at the things Will had bound her skin in.
She was surprised to succeed in removing most of the cloth and film and although it left her in a spaghetti top, shivering with a horrid hot cold that only ever came with a burn she didn't care. She stood up in an second attempt at leaving and this time was successful in getting as far as to her feet but, with a single step it felt as if a rug had been pulled out from under her feet or, perhaps someone had turned her knees backwards because before she could stop herself Misa had toppled chaotically into Will's arms.

Will caught Misa. She knew that was going to happen.
"Right, if this is the way you want to play it, fine," Will put her back on the bed and as she made to put everything back in place on Misa a pair of restraints glided over to her.
Will grabbed hold of them and attatched them onto Misa so that could move but she couldn't move enough to pull everything out and of again or try to escape.
"Now, again, please Misa, please tell me how this happened?" Will sighed, "It'd be easier if you co-operated with me here, you know?!"

"Will, it was a long time ago...it was necessary, I-"No! A voice exclaimed in her mind! What are you doing? Shut up!She shut her mouth - fast.
No matter how humiliated she felt being tied up, like a bad puppy or something, she was not going to have this forced out of her. Things from her past she half didn't understand where not the sort of thing she ever had any intention of talking to Will about. She'd only just meet the girl for Chrissake! No, there was no way she could possibly trust her with something like that.
Yet, she couldn't bring herself to lie to Will.
The alternative option was...She didn't like it but, well, it was the only choice.
"I couldn't help it..." She said, purposefully vague. She Gazed down sadly at her wrists which were horribly bruised and scratched - drawing Will's attention with her own.
