Coral
* NIX!!
* NIX, PLEASE!



Nix isn't listening.




Coral
* NIX!!!!!


The blood pours down her face harder than usual.












Coral reaches Jiro's little shack, she runs for the door.

Coral
* Please, please--!!
















Nix is inside. She is standing on the table next to Jiro's mirror, one wing braced against it. Coral, drenched in sweat, holds out her palm and forces a smile.

Coral
* Nix-- hff...
* Why don't we just-- just talk--


I'm not going back.


Coral
* WAIT--!!!


Nix shoves the mirror off the table.
