LuLu had been trying to hunt when she was attacked by a group of humans. Of course they didn't know she wouldn't just harm anyone on the streets. They had been hunters themselves, but witnesses hadn't known any of their origins. They had called the hospital when the hunters left and LuLu wouldn't wake up. She had severe burns from holy water and a bullet wound in her left leg. She was beginning to heal, but not quickly because of the bullet. As soon as it was removed, she would begin to heal quickly.
The doctors worked over her frantically. She could hear and feel everything around her. She was well aware of the danger she was in and she only hoped that Ella wouldn't find her here. If LuLu didn't die, she feared Ella would kill her.
Despite the pain she was in, the fear began to radiate weakly. The humans in the room began to back away from her body...before the bullet had been removed. Someone else would have to remove it. Her fear was getting weaker as she felt unconsciousness threaten her...the darkness...so close..She tried to fight it, but the fear radiating was weakening her body and it would be so easy to give up...

Ajora had been alerted by the head staff of the hospital that "Someone Odd" was in their care.
Being Ventrue sure had it's perks.
She walked up the stairs, noticing the humans slowly backing away from the room, avoiding it.
"A nosferatu...?" she wonders.
But to her surprise, it was a young girl. Radiating an aura that took supreme concentration to overcome, yet....She was, young, elegant. Odd.
"Hello there" Ajora says, placing a small cup on the table at LuLu's side.
"Figured you could use some blood. My name is Ajora."

Feeling someone else in the room, LuLu tried to open her eyes. She looked up, but the room was spinning. Her clothes were in the floor, but she was covered with those white paper sheets. Her legs hurt so bad, the fear of a stranger in the room was temporarily over come. Her fear aura was getting weaker and her eyes rolled back. She shut them, shuddering convulsively. The pain was getting worse. If one were to look, her leg would be covered in red streaks. The streaks were spreading...

"Fuck, did you guys not get her in stable condition?" she shouted.
Before the doctors rushed back in, she poured about 1/3 of the cup into LuLu's mouth.
Why was her condition worsening? This was absurd.
"You are not getting paid ridiculous sums of money to watch this poor girl suffer! Help her, NOW!"

LuLu's eyes popped open. She was certainly not expecting blood. She hadn't even smelled it. That wasn't right...But neither was her condition.
"Leg...BURNS..." She hissed through clenched teeth. She really, really hoped Ella wouldn't show up. She couldn't even feel Ella through the pain. The streaks had moved up her torso, spreading down her other leg and edging closer to her heart. If it reached her heart...

"Jesus, there's something moving up her veins! PUMP IT OUT NOW!" she bellowed.
It could be silver nitrate, unlikely, as there were only 2 that she knew who used that.
Or it was holy water.
Both were deadly. Holy water meant they had more time.
Ajora took the nearby curtain that was supposed to separate the two halves of the room.
She tied it very tightly just above the streak, hoping it would stall long enough to get the pump going.
"You're going to be okay honey, just hang in there..." she whispered, grabbing LuLu's hand.

Everything in LuLu's being rebelling against the touch, but she was so weak, the darkness so close to overpowering her, that she actually clung to the hand.
"Don't...Don't tell Ella!" She gasped again through clenched teeth. She didn't know this woman, but she would be eternally grateful for the help she was receiving...at least once the stupid doctors took care of her leg.

These doctors were worse than headless chickens running backwards on a conveyor belt.
She examined the origin with her other hand.
A small bullet hole.
"For the love of...Bite this as hard as you can love" she says, putting a scarf in her mouth.
She tentatively sticks on finger into the wound.
She feels a bullet, but jumps.
It's silver.
"Goddamnit!"
Noticing no doctors around, she has to bite the bullet....So to speak.
She takes a deep breathe, and with the quickest motion possible, drags it out.
It falls to the floor the second Ajora can drop it. She screams in pain, her hand feeling as though it were on fire.

LuLu does as told, gasping as she feels Ajora pull out the fire in her leg. She felt her body reacting to the lack of poison, healing her already. She could smell the blood now, and she reached for the cup, drinking it in gulps. She felt Ella in the back of her head and made sure to not give away her location. She should have never ended up in this place. She's a vampire, for crying out loud!
This thought amused her and she laughed, but it was bitter. "Je suis folle!" She could imagine the little squirrel running around in her head. He seemed rather happy to see her and she really wanted to join him, she hadn't reverted in so long...But she sighed and kept herself in reality. She needed to thank Ajora and get out before Ella found her.

"Oh good....You....Speak..." she pants.
"Je suis...Ajora. Je suis ici d'aider. Parlez-vous l'anglais?" she asks.
The doctors came back in, with many tubes, wires and plugs.
"Leave us."

Now that she was getting stronger, so was the fear...And anger at those who did this to her. It radiated off her in short, quick bursts. She toned it down as much as she could, and as much as she was willing. She didn't need Ella busting up in here. The doctors were only too happy to comply as they began to fear again.
She looked at Ajora, sighing as she tried to sit up. She was still weak..and she had never fed earlier. She looked at the cup longingly as she fell back onto the bed.
"Oui. Merci boucoup.." She spoke again, but cursed out loud to herself. The woman wanted English and she now owed the woman at least that much. "Yes. English. Thank you. For help. Louise." She spoke it brokenly, like it was not her first language, though it was.

"If you are not fluent in english, I do speak french" she said, sitting down at the bed.
This was a rare time for her motherly instincts to kick in.
"If I speak in english, can you respond fine in french?" she asks.

LuLu shook her head. "L'anglais est bien. Not you. Moi." She sighed. Her body worked harder. She was still really weak and all she wanted was fresh blood and sleep. She sat up finally and looked at Ajora. She made no move to keep those stupid little paper sheets on her as she searched for the clothing the doctors had so carelessly cut away. She growled...That was her favourite outfit, too.

"What do you need love? Are you missing something?"
She noticed LuLu's longing look towards the cup. She smiled.
"I'll get you some more blood. Anything else?"

LuLu sighed. She hated that the woman was still being so nice...All she had been was nice...And all LuLu could do was growl at the stupid doctors and speak to her in broken English AND French. She looked at Ajora for the first time since her vision had cleared and took a deep breath.
"Blood is fine. Clothes would be great?" She smiled, not her full bright smile, but enough of one to let Ajora know how grateful she was.
