Characters: Beatrix, Ashe, Tifa
Progress: Ongoing
Summary: Some of their memories are not so pleasant
Location: Memoria
Date: February 1804
Warnings: Not so happy things? :P
Beatrix was not at all certain of what to make of these circumstances, save to find them disquieting and to hope that they would soon gain some insight as to what was going on. Already they had been shown pleasant memories, and then views of their desires. What would be next? As the scenery changed to a street in Alexandria, Beatrix could not even begin to guess what the next scene to be presented to her would be, but the shift in scenery seemed enough to prove that this was not yet over.
Soon enough she lost awareness of her two companions as the scene erupted into chaotic action. The streets were filled with monsters, fighters, and the people of the city, while not far from them, the castle had become the site of a battle between summons, Alexander protecting from Bahamut’s fires.
She stepped back from where a Mistodon had just fallen to her blade, and glanced around, taking in the scene. She and Steiner had split up to cover more ground, and the soldiers had become scattered as well. There were only a few other fighters here with her, and a handful of terrified civilians huddled against a wall nearby. There was a break in the onslaught for the moment, but it would only be so long before monsters found them again. Beatrix used the opportunity to take inventory of injuries, and note that at least one of the bodies on the ground was still breathing. Standing up, she gestured to the nearest able-bodied soldier.
“You!” she called, “Get these people care.” The soldier nodded and ran off to find help, and Beatrix turned to the others. "The rest of you!” She paused long enough to glance up at the fight of epic proportions taking place above the castle before turning back to the soldiers. “Stay focused! We must keep fighting these monsters off.” Beatrix glanced back up at the wings surrounding the castle, mentally uttering a wish for the safety of both the queen and the city, before searching the scene for her next opponent.
[ooc: Bonus points if she managed to look right at Ashe or Tifa when she told that one soldier to get medical help.]

It certainly seemed as if that vision was no more pleasant than the other two. She wanted to move to place a comforting hand on Ashe's shoulder, but she checked first to make sure Tifa had regained enough strength to stand without assistance.

"I know."
She understood what Ashe was going through. All three of them did.

It hadn't been real. Holding on to that thought, she lifted her heavy head to nod in gratitude to both women (who were likely still reeling from their own experiences), though she couldn't quite meet their eyes.
"... No more."
no subject
"We should move on."
