| >People crowded the streets all around the southern border of the Motor District. Illegal bike races and underground concerts hid the truly terrible things that happened here-slave trading, illicit service contracting, and around it all lies Carlyle's Oasis.

>From the outside it's just a dumpy old apartment complex. On the inside, however...

>Nietzen flew straight up to the front door before clicking the device one more time, and doing his special knock so she'd know it was him.

| "Come on...open the door, quickly..."

>Nietzen looked back, scanning for both CN and RaIn, his newfound friends in the search for...

>What were they searching for again? Nietzen honestly didn't remember for a moment. Then he saw the body of his dead friend and it all came rushing back, back through the shock of the gunfight they just survived.

>Cobalt Lily and Crimson Rose.

>...Crimson Rose...

>Nietzen remembered the crimson colored armor of those soldiers...Were they hers?"

| >CN soon catches up to Nietzen and clicks his own device, appearing a few feet away.
"Hey, is this the place?"

| "It better be the place."
>RaIn winced as he clicked the device off.
"I need to pop this thing out of my arm before it cauterizes my flesh any further... And I'm not exactly patient at the moment."
>RaIn shuffled in place. Was this whole Reaper bullshit worth it? What would it prove? Who would this help..? He had half a mind to just leave, but he really didn't want to. He owed it to Nietezen.

| "This is the place, she just isn't-WHOA-"

>Nietzen was leaning on the door...then it opened, and he fell inwards.

"Oh hello there baby! What are you doing back here so quickly? I thought you said you weren't-Oh, hello friends of baby!"

>A beautiful, mature-looking red-haired Lilim answered the door in white, silk gown. She seemed...very aloof. Wavy. She was obviously VERY high on something. Her hair was wrapped in a braid that wrapped around her head like a headpiece.

| >She got out of the way as Nietzen stood back up.

"Please, do come in everybody! I have tea on the kettle, I'll have the girls make some more for themselves later."

"Sorry, this is an emergency Carlyle. I don't mean to come and intrude-"

"Nonsense! You know that you and any of your friends are welcome here always! Just come in and make yourselves at home! My oasis is welcome to all, beating hearts and stillhearts alike!"

>She smiled.

| >Inside the first room, the walls, floors and ceiling were all clearly covered in Nanocamo, and the room looked like the universe. The walls were pitch black, and stars and planets could all be seen, moving realistically. Comets could even be seen shooting past quickly, and the light of a star in the middle of the room where the light should be was enough to light the room just enough for things to be seen.

| >There was no real furniture, just blankets, pillows and pads that one could lay on. There were two girls, both wearing the same silk robes but in black, laying on the mats, looking at the ceiling. If one looked closer, one could notice that they were crying, but they looked happy, and they were laughing and reaching out towards the ceiling, towards what physically looked like nothing.

>It was eerie, but peaceful as well.

>The doors were barely visible, but Carlyle slid one open.

| >Inside that door was a kitchen area, and Carlyle stopped to grab the tea.

"Carlyle we need a medical kit. My friend was shot, we need to help him out."

>She turned in shock, and looked at RaIn quickly.

"Come with me, I will help you out, the rest of you help yourselves to tea."

"Nope, we're gonna come with you this time. We want to make sure he is being taken care of well."

"Nietzen, what do I always say?"

"You can do no harm, you're an angel in an artificial body."

"Yes!"

| "But that isn't a guarantee to new people who don't trust you. Us coming along will be."

"But Nietzen, trust is essential-"

"-And so is sufficient medical help for a bullet wound. I know you used to be a medical bot, I know you CAN treat him, but he doesn't and likely doesn't trust you since you're not only brand new, you also look like you've been awake for 5 days and like you're high on at least 2 psychadelics."

>Carlyle gave Nietzen a look, and pouted.

"Fine, come along."

| "Uh actually, if it's fine with you, I think I'll catch my breath here for a couple of minutes."
>CN slowly sits down on the mat
"I've been running around all day, I just need like 10 minutes. Besides I should probably message my team and let them know I'm okay."

| >Nietzen looks back at CN, totally realizing that he just assumed CN would want to come watch RaIn get medical help without even asking him.

"Oh shit, I'm sorry dude. Yeah, go ahead and do your thing."

>Nietzen then leaned close to CN and whispered.

"Don't drink more than like, a cup and a half of the tea if you want to actually walk out of here tonight. But if you're staying, I advise you drink as much as you can."

>He gave him a quick nod before going back over to Carlyle.

| >CN simply nods understandably as he takes the time to rest and pulls out phone to send some messages.

| (RaIn?)

| >Carlyle turns on the news in the kitchen, only to see it blowing up with news of the Neko Park Concert Incident.

"This is absolutely insane...I need to open the Oasis up to any refugees. I'm going to post something online...Can you help me baby?"

"Sure, I don't mind at all. This is huge, and way more important than my issue at the moment. As long as those Phoenix Corps guys are off our tail, this is more important.

>Carlyle and Nietzen nod.

| (Ooc: uh I don't think that would be possible considering I'm in both threads ^^;. -CN)

| (OOC: Uh...hmm...Let's say your friends told you they needed you and so you went to Neko Park, and since RaIn hasn't replied yet that it's been a bit of time since you've left...yeah that works right?)

| (Sure I suppose.) -CN

| ((I was at work you goof.))

| >RaIn looked at this Lillim lady and raised an eyebrow. Some woman who's high as a kite was going to try and pop the bullet out of his arm... Well... His other idea was to cram a butter knife into the wound and bite down on something extremely hard and wedge the bullet out. At least she used to be a medical bot.
"The shit I get into... Fuck it, get this thing out of my arm before it burns a hole through to the other side."
>RaIn reluctantly followed the Lillim... Carefully...

| >Carlyle smiled and took his hand.
"Come, baby. You will recieve healing."
>Nietzen followed.
"She calls everyone baby, don't worry about it."
Carlyle opened a door, and a room with a medical operating chair and table came into view, along with cabinets filled with medical tools and medications of various types.
"This will be quick as a jif!"
"What's a jif?"
"Its an expression!"
"Well, you are great with expressions..."
