He was a little scared at first, sensing her shaking as if to pull away. Marcus would have felt awkward then. As it was, he felt awkward now, but at least she found comfort in his arms. What was she thinking about to cry so much?

Just sitting there, he felt the weight of Kadasha against him. What was her past? Her medical report had no last name, did that mean she was actually abandoned? If he hadn't been there, would have no one actually gone to visit her in the hospital?

"Just don't worry, everything's going to be alright." It made him sad that this girl didn't seem to have any sort of family, save for the Shaymin plush.

Everything's going to be alright...

Words that were supposed to be reassuring, but to Kadasha, it was a lie just for her to cheer up. Everything had been horrible since she woke up. She wished she could just go to sleep again, but she didn't want to see those nightmares again. It scared her. The doll would know this fact as her heartbeat rose frequently while it watched over her. Its touch was not always enough to quell her fears, but it did what it could.

Kadasha... she realized that she had nowhere to go. No one to take care of her. What was going to happen now? Should she stay here where the air smelled weird? Would Marcus take care of her? No, of course not... he got hurt because of her and she was just a burden... he'd just start ignoring her.

She really shouldn't be clinging on to him, but she couldn't find the will to push him back. If he didn't mind it... she would like to stay like this for a bit...

Just a bit longer...

...

...

...

Moments passed and Kadasha's cries mellowed down to sobbing, but she didn't dare move, afraid that the doing so would make Marcus go away. Eventually she went silent and her stomach made a noise.

It hurt

Whilst holding Kadasha, he heard a familiar groaning sound. chuckling, he moved a bit back. "In all that, I don't think either of us actually had anything to eat after all that. "I'll go get us something to eat."

Going to his feet, he went to move towards the door but hesitated. She shouldn't be left alone. That gave him an idea.

He had wanted to try this for a while. He moved back, and sitting on the ground, he pulled out the same book as before, but this time, he turned to a different page. instead of summoning a sword, Marcus read aloud, and slowly, a large plate of food began to appear in front of him. Being comprised entirely of desserts, He doubted the nurse would like it, but Kadasha might enjoy it.

"Hey Kadasha," he said, picking up a lemon tart. "Try this."

Kadasha was a bit saddened that Marcus moved away, but she was more or less okay now that she had gotten a good cry out. She was hungry, and after being asleep for so long, it would be no wonder.

The toy had seen the hospital people using magic to feed the girl. It couldn't tell what they did exactly, but it understood what it was for. Which was a relief, because it didn't want any tubes going into Kadasha's body.

The tart that Marcus suddenly took out from the book would be Kadasha's first solid food in a long time. Her face instantly lit up when it was offered to her. She held out her hands to take the one Marcus offered her. She was shaky, and her grip was weak, but it was enough to not simply drop the tart. She ate it hungrily and smiled. It tasted great.

She liked it! Marcus smiled as well. After what had happened, it was a good thing. "So," He asked, waving his good hand over the entire plate."What would you like?"

while outwardly, he acted calm, inside Marcus was straining to keep the summon active. though small, the number of items summoned was past his limit, and it hurt his head as the boy struggled.She had to eat some more before he could let it disappear though.

Kadasha wiped her eyes with the bandages around her arm and looked at Marcus like he was an angel sent to take care of her. Maybe he was since he kept all those monsters away from her. Even with hunger, the child was still acting timid as she reached for another treat from the plate, which she happily ate.

She went to take another treat, and then with the third one, she offered it to Marcus. After what he had done for her, he deserved a treat himself. She did her best put on an appreciative smile, as she never really done a lot of it before. The girl kept to herself, and was, for the longest time, too nervous to approach anyone to have a lot of experience with interacting with people.

Even now, she wanted to hide herself away. It felt so unnatural to her now to interact with anyone that wasn't her toy.

taking the treat from Kadasha, he slowly ate it. It really was quite nice. "Kudos to the chef," Marcus thought. "Too bad what happens to him five pages later."

He smiled back at her. She's really trying! Marcus was glad, at the start she was afraid to look at him, and now... all she needed was for someone to help.

"So what now?" He asked her."That trifle, or the ice cream? Your pick."

She was really happy that someone was here for her, yet at the same time, there was a nagging feeling that this wasn't going to last. Soon he'll be gone and she and Shay would be alone again.

The dour mood was remedied when Kadasha's attention was nudged to the two deserts, both looking great in her eyes. But she liked the fruity look of the first one, so she pointed to the trifle.

She hoped she wasn't being selfish...

Handing the trifle to her, Marcus was preparing himself to release the magic. He couldn't possibly sustain it any longer. She would be disappointed, of course, but unfortunately, that was his limit.

"Any good?" He asked her. While he wasn't a fan of apricots, Marcus knew that it would be delicious, especially for the young girl.

With only a little hesitation, Kadasha took a few bites out of the dessert. It was so good she could almost cry. But no, she had done enough crying today. She was with a nice man. She shouldn't be crying so much.

Looking to Marcus she nodded. It was indeed good. The toy looked up at the dessert as well. Noticing this, Kadasha got a spoonful and fed it to the toy, who's eyes widened.

It would be a good time for Marcus to notice that the toy had an actual mouth, and not just some felt that was made to look like one. Actually, the doll seemed almost real at that moment, not that Kadasha noticed the change.

Seeing the appreciative face on the doll, Kadasha giggled. But after that, the toy would return to looking as what it had always been. The change, once again, went unnoticed by the little girl.
