Re: Fragments of a Shattered Home [Hana/Josh]

Hana touched nothing. She didn’t look for the safe. She didn’t sit down, open a door, anything. She was terrified to get blood anywhere. When he found it, she focused on him again, her mind wandering any time there was silence. She looked at the safe and then shook her head. “Can I take a bath?” Hana asked in a way that showed she needed permission, and then added, “Please.”
Whether actually given the permission or not, Hana did walk away. She made her way to the bath and began preparing for once. It took a good hour and when Hana reemerged again, she was wearing some of her old clothes, not a shihakusho. She looked less dead with the blood all washed off, even if she seemed completely exhausted. She walked around until she found Josh, "The safe... It will open with kido; I was never taught which one."

“It… will be fine. You should not worry about it… I don’t want to…” Hana said and then walked back toward the door. She had thoughts to leave, to go back to Koga, to go to her barracks, but… she was home for the first time in two years. It seemed like her bedroom had not been touched in that time. Her mother wasn’t here to kick her out and yell at her. This was, legally, her place now, right? She could just… stay here, and that felt very strange.
"My presence here has not been welcomed for years now... Is it wrong to sleep in my room?" Hana asked, her hand gripping the wooden frame of the door as she stared doon the hall toward her bedroom. "...How do I find him?"

Hana was perfectly still and silent while Joshua was talking, until he said ‘you’ll have my help on that,’ and Hana’s hand revealed how tight it had been squeezing the wood of the sliding door to her parents room. It suddenly cracked, snapped like a twig under her grip. Her shoulders lifted and dropped as she gave a heavy sigh and began pulling splinters out of her hand.
"I will kill him without anyone getting in my way," Hana said adamantly, flicking a splinter away. "I require no help from anyone to complete this mission, so I will not ask for it or allow it. Just leave that criminal's life to me..."

When he called her name, Hana looked over her shoulder with narrowed eyes, angry, challenging even. However, to anyone who knew her, she was little more than a kitten in a bad mood. It did not matter how real this felt, how deeply she meant what she said, his look and his words shattered any semblance of will she had been trying to keep up. His words stung, probably more than they should.
"Go to hell, Josh," she said as tears welled. She clenched her jaw shut tight and she walked out of the room. 'He's right, I am so fucking useless...'

Hana didn’t think he’d follow her, but when he did, she picked up the pace and left him at the doorway. She found her bedroom and went inside, slamming the door shut behind her. Flicking a switch, a light came on and she looked over to her bed. She took some time to remember her old things, running fingers along dusty furniture, and then pat the bed. The comforter was a mess, but she kicked that off and laid down on untouched sheets. She always preferred these western beds over the traditional futons. She hated the Division barracks...
The last few days moved through her mind like an avalanche the moment her head hit the pillow. The fighting, the amount of power released, hollows, Reida, Josh, Koga, Akira... Luckily, her exhaustion finally took her and she was able to relax, so Hana closed her eyes. Within seconds, she was asleep...
