Hearing B's voice, Hitomi looked up to him and gave him a warm smile. "Just be careful, B. That splint will only hold so much force until we can get you a more stable one." And just like that, he was gone. She'd smiled softly and shook her head as she then went to begin attending to more people.

It was then that her arm was caught by Yasu. Looking up to the white haired girl, she'd smile softly though the look in the girl's eyes were intense. "Is there something more I can help you with?" She'd ask only to hear her words. The pale eyes of the Hyuga daughter searched over the other girls face while she spoke. Hearing the conditions of taking care of Kaylee, she'd only give a nod. "I'm helping all that I can, so please understand that I can't just stay by her side alone." Her eyes then followed to the girl's pouch were she had pulled out a forehead protector and placed it in her hands. She'd see the long dark strands of hair on it clearly along with some blood towards the back ties. Hitomi's eyes started to fill and a lump began to form in her throat as she heard the words come from Yasu. Her sentance hitting Hitomi like a brick. 'I know how close you were to him.' The only male that she was truly close to besides Tsukikiba had been Takuza. Her eyes stared at the forehead protector as Yasu let her go and moved on. Hitomi's fingers curled around the forehead protector and she brought it close to her chest with both hands. Then the dams opened. Streams of hot tears covered her cheeks while she silently sobbed. "You promised to always be at my side...." She sniffed softly. "...you promised, Takuza.." Her eyes closed as the tears still rolled out of her eyes.

The force of chakra being rapidly dispelled brought her out of her moment. "Later, Hitomi.." She had to literally tell herself as she slid her fingers over the metal plate a moment before taking it and placing it around her neck. There it would stay until she too had fallen and another would take it from her. She'd once more turn to Ryuota and smiled a bit with a nod as she took the two chakra pills. She'd reach into her pouch and pull out a pill bottle that had nothing in it and place them in there before placing them back in her pouch as a much needed thing.

(Permission granted to auto by Verin) She moved to Kaylee and noticed the child had blacked out. Shaking her head, she wiped her tear stained cheeks and gently moved to have her lie flat and against the side of the wall. Noticing the blood as it came from Kaylee's mouth, she'd lift her friend's shirt and notice the bruising that was starting to come through to the surface already. "Kay-chan.. what did you do?" She thought to herself as she leaned over and placed her ear to her friend's chest listening to her breathing while she then took out wide medical stripping. Wrapped it around her ribs tightly to keep them from moving more and give them a more secured feel, it would be tight but she'd be able to breathe. Her friend would be tended to for the moment and she'd gently move her towards the elevator. The place that she knew would be the most safe. With a soft sigh, she'd stand back up and look to those that were around.

Who would be next? Only her steps would tell her as she began to move along the hall.
