Case 17: Turnabout Terror

[The morning immediately after her horrifying experience with the Coral Cannibal, Kay wakes up in her own bed with a start.  Her heart racing, she flails about in a panic, knocking the phone off the receiver.  The whole of Mayfield is treated to the very loud and utterly terrified scream of a young 17 year old thief.]

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

[There is the sound of heavy, panicked breathing along with the rustling of bedsheets as Kay tries to make sense of her surroundings while trying to remember just what happened the previous night.  She's talking to herself, barely aware that she's narrating her own thoughts out loud.]

"W-what was that...?  Sharp pain... and... then.  Just darkness.  And blood... blood everywhere..."

[Huddles underneath her sheets, pulling them tightly around her so that nothing but her face is showing.  She's like a small child convinced of the magic power of her blanket, as if it will somehow protect her against the monsters that lurk in the shadows just out of sight.  And she just stays like that, rocking back and forth and quietly murmuring to herself, still totally unaware that the phone is off the hook.]

What?! Something killed you?! [Come to think of it, Zidane had been told about people coming back to life the other day. Perhaps that was what happened to this girl? Either way, she certainly sounded like she went through something terrible..]

[Zidane is still in disbelief about the whole 'raise from the dead' thing and wants to find out more. However, as Kay is still clearly frightened so perhaps it might not be a good idea to press her about it. He's not going just leave her like this, though]

Listen, do you want me to come over?

Um, but... I don't even know your name...

Oh, geez, you're right! Sorry. My name's Zidane. I live on, uh....850 Goldberg Street. I woke up here a couple of days ago....

....Look, I won't come over if you don't want me to I just want to make sure you're all right.

I... I'm okay now. As okay as I'm gonna be, anyway.

All right, if you're sure.[Best not push her]

However, if you need anything, you can let me know, okay?
