Sincara had followed the ambulance to Moon Valley Medic and waited in the waiting room to hear more on Naomi's condition. She lied and claimed she was family and the doctors and nurses didn't seem to care to double check on that. Sincara waited until the doctors said she could see Naomi. Sincara made sure they were alone and came into the hospital bedroom looking Naomi over. Still feeling guilty about what happened back at the cemetery, but at least the doctors said she was going to be fine. For now.

When Naomi finally came to the last thing she remembered was looking up at the child she was trying to protect from the vampire. Once again she looked up to see that child standing over her with a look of regret on her face. But Naomi was pleased just to see the child was safe and alive.
"Hey there."
Naomi offered Sincara a smile and then tried to sit up, but was still too weak so she opted to remain laying down instead.
"What happened after I passed out?"

"The ambulance came and brought you here. Luckily they had plenty of blood in storage to fill you up with to make up for the blood that was lost. How are you feeling?"
That seemed like a dumb question, but Sincara didn't know what else to say. She felt guilty about Naomi getting hurt. Even though the two barely knew each other at all. Naomi just happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time and almost paid the ultimate price for it.

Naomi inspected her body to find that it was mainly her back and lower spine that was hurting more than anything else. Beside feeling weak from the lost of blood. She was certain the feeling would pass and she'd be back to her usual hyper self in no time flat.
"I think I'll be fine. A little wear and tear around the back, but nothing that won't heal. I don't believe we ever had the chance to exchange names. I'm Naomi, Naomi Hurt. What's your name?"

"Sincara."
Sincara took off her hat and placed it on her chest as a sign of respect. She then bowed her head in shame and glared at the floor.
"I'm sorry. Had I not been so reckless maybe you wouldn't have gotten hurt."
The guilt weighed on her soul heavily. She didn't know if it would ever go away. She thought the path of revenge would be simple, but there's nothing simple about the path she was now on. Not one bit.

"Sincara. That's an interesting name. Stands for something, doesn't it?"
Naomi readjusted herself in the hospital bed as Sincara continued to speak. Naomi offered Sincara a sympathetic smile.
"Hey, don't beat yourself up over it. I was just at the wrong place at the wrong time and got in the way. What has you hunting vampires at your age anyway?"

"No face. It means no face."
That was part of the reason Sincara chose the name. She felt like a no face. An outcast. A hunter that couldn't lead a normal life. She had powers nobody knew of and a weapon that exceeded the norm. Hence the name Sincara.
"Vampires... murdered my family. I made it my job to make them pay."

"Is that how you feel about yourself? That you have no face?"
Naomi listened to Sincara's story and felt her pain. Naomi couldn't imagine what it was like to lose your entire family. Let alone to beings like vampires, which she always knew existed despite the Moon Valley's government best efforts to cover up the supernatural trail that went through here for reasons unknown.
"I understand your feelings, Sincara, but still. You're just a kid. You could get seriously hurt. Or even killed."

"It's complicated."
Sincara was avoiding eye contact. She didn't know if she considered herself a person without a face or not. It made it easier to be an assassin without having one though. But was that really the lonely road she wanted to go down?
"I'm not a kid! And besides, Miracle was only twelve years old when she became High Priestess. If she can do it why not me?"

"You are a kid. I understand the want for revenge, but maybe you should let it go? Live a normal life and enjoy being a kid while you still can? Besides, Moon Valley isn't like Aircano and for good reason. We don't send our kids to war."
Naomi didn't like Aircano that much. That it would allow a twelve year old girl to lead them when that twelve year old girl should be living a normal life. But that was why she lived in Moon Valley and not Aircano.
