Gar looked at the gray door and spoke up. "Brianna? It's me."
Brianna unlocked the door and let the Jagwere in. "Bring the clothes in and put them on the table by the bed." Brianna stuck her head out, looked down the different hallways and, satisfied that no one was there, stuck her head back in the lab and closed the door and walked back over to the bed where Grave was sleeping.
Gar nodded, and walked into the lab, placed the clothes on the nearby table. He looked at Grave for a moment, hardly able to believe that she looked so much like that little girl who tried to kill him, his sister and so many before. "So how is she?"
Brianna sighed as she looked at Grave. "She's alive. She almost didn't make it. The only reason that she's still alive now is her strength of will. Her body just gave up shortly after I put her in the regen tanks and healed her." She shook her head. "Her body nearly shut down, thankfully Gina's regen tanks are good enough to keep her alive." Brianna stopped and rubbed her forehead, the day had seemed incredibly long and it wasn't even four o'clock yet. "She's stronger than me, stronger than anyone I know. To be so close to death and still go on. She's tough."
Gar nodded. "I see.... Damn... Who did this to her?"
Brianna looked at Gar hard. "What I'm about to say won't go out of this room by you. I, or she, will tell who we want to when we need to, you got that?" She said as she grabbed Gar by his shirt and shook him a bit.
Gar nodded frantically. "Crystal clear! Not out of this room!"
Brianna nodded, satisfied at that answer and released him. "Good." The blonde girl took a breath and continued. "From what I've found out, she is me, err, Grave Digger, but from an alternate world. Apparently in that world things aren't so good." Brianna paused, wondering how to say what she was going to say next.
Gar nodded slowly, digesting the information carefully. "You mean like... A place where those who are good aren't and evil isn't evil?"
Brianna blinked and looked at him, impressed. "Not in such simple terms, but yeah, it's more than likely. I'd have to ask her to get all the details, but I'm pretty sure that most of the people that we know who are good would be evil and vice versa. As for Grave's injuries..." Brianna sighed and shook her head and whispered to Gar, not wanting Grave to hear it in case she woke up. "I think that Cheetah and the rest of her family was the reason for her injuries." Actually, Brianna didn't have to think as Grave had said that Britanny had used her for a punching bag before.
Gar paled at the very thought, "Aw man..that's horrible..." he said, speaking in low tones.
Brianna nodded and continued, still whispering. "I know. Right now things are delicate, and considering how she reacted around you, I'd say your counterpart wasn't very nice over there either. Remember, this is just speculation on my part."
Gar nodded but winced. "Shit... I've heard of that theory of alternate worlds before, but I never thought much about it, just knowing I got an evil counterpart that hurt someone, that's just wrong."
Brianna sighed and continued in that same self whisper. "I know." She then looked through the clothes and blinked as she pulled out a smaller pair of her panties. "Gee Gar, if you wanted my underwear, you could've just asked." She spoke coyly, trying to lighten the mood.
Gar flushed and spoke up, grabbing the edge of the table to prevent himself from face-faulting. "I'm not a lech."
Brianna giggled. "Actually, I wouldn't mind if you stole my underwear." She giggled at his perplexed expression. "Now out with you. I need to get Acacia dressed and if you're here, I can't do that. Unless you're a lech?" She smirked teasingly at him.
Gar groaned. "I'm going, I'm going.." He turned and left with a blush still on his face.
Brianna giggled as Gar left through the front door to the lab. Once he was gone, she went over to Grave and pulled the blankets off of the smaller Lycanthropoid and then the hospital gown before dressing the mini-Werecheetah in her panties, surpsingly, they fit pretty well on Grave. Brianna blinked. 'Oh that's right, those are my smaller pair.' She thought to herself and shrugged, then she grabbed her yellow shorts and gray sweatshirt and put them on Grave, moving the shorts a bit so that Grave could move her tail freely.
Outside Gar shook his head to try and clear it. 'I can't believe she'd tease me like that. Wait! Yes I can.' He then turned and walked down the hall, intent on finding some water and dousing himself with it.
