Message: <blockquote data-quote="Aenion" data-source="post: 3531176" data-attributes="member: 12893">Karen had been constantly flitting about, helping out here and there. Distributing blankets, clothes, food, setting up beds, helping the wounded, doing any heavy lifting that was needed, ... She had to keep busy, she wouldn't and couldn't stop working. If she did she felt like she would collapse. If anyone asked or told her to take a break and clean up, she just shook her head and continued.Everything had happened so fast, so many people dead, so many families broken. Her first and best friend here at the institute had been brutally thorn away from the world by Cardinal. The girl she'd tried to help and protect so many times over the past two years, was gone now. And why? So Cardinal could start a war between baselines and elites? So she could force the transformation and have more soldiers to fight against Overseer? Soon there wouldn't be anything left to fight for.Someone had ordered the tireless crystal girl to take a break and given her a change of clothes, she couldn't really remember who but she hadn't been able to refuse this time. She'd found herself in the bathroom section of the bunker, washing away the dirt and blood. She barely remembered how she got here, the world just didn't seem real to her. She changed into the military pants and the top, the pants were too big and the top was too tight but she just couldn't be bothered to care.It's in this daze that she enters the dormitory, tapping away at a tablet PC she got a hold off, desperately trying to get a connection to Chicago and Verona. She doesn't look up from her search to greet anyone. She sits down on one of the beds and promptly crashes through it with a surprised yelp, her body had become too heavy for it to support the extremely dense teenager. Instead she gets up and finds herself a quiet corner to sit on the floor as she continues to tap away on the PC searching for any bit of news about her family and Kal.</blockquote>
