Reason walked down the street, pushing agianst the waves of people headed in the other direction. Her arms were full of school supplies in shopping bags. It was a normal day, her white hair falling down around her body.
Shaking it out of her face, she stopped at the crosswalk, waiting for the light to turn to walk. It did, and she saw a man start toward her. Starting out, she noticed too late that no one else was coming. Out of nowhere a car hit her, slamming her into the pavement. The man suddenly dissapeared, the light turned to red, and the crowd gasped.
Strangely she felt no pain, her body just felt heavy and she couldn't move at all. Groaning, she tried her best to even open her eyes, but couldn't seem to even do that. There's something running down my face.. She thought.
"My god why did she run out.." "They were cars coming!" "Someone call a medic!" "That's so much blood.."
She could hear the voices spiralling around her, mixing into a whirl, and finaly a siren as she slowly slipped off into unconciousness.

Walking down the empty street, Ineta saw a woman laying in the road. He rushed over and and knelt down next to her. She was pretty, but she was bleeding profusely and seemed hurt badly. Aw geez, I just got these reagents too... I'll have to make another stop to the store then. He got a strand of prayer beads out of his dark robe and took some candles out of the small bag around his waist. Quickly lighting the candles and placing them around the girl at each cardinal point, he closed his eyes and chanted softly under his breath. His hands started to glow a faint white light and he passed them slowly above her body. The smaller surface wounds began to close and stop bleeding, and the few broken bones knitted themselves back together. As the bleeding came to an end, the priest leaned back on his heels, breathing heavily. Damn, healing always takes so much out of me. He sighed and took a small bottle of oil out from his bag, and places a drop on her brow. Saying a hurried prayer, the droplet glowed a second and then rubbed into her skin. "Now, we wait for you to awaken."

It felt like something was pulling on her, willing her to wake up. Groaning, she rolled over,her hand coming to her forehead. Her eyes fluttered open, revealing her steel gray eyes. The world shifted around her, then came into focus. A man was leaning over her, and looked a little worried. Sitting up, the world blurred agian, then straightened. She swayed looking around. Candles were burning around her, and she frowned looking at the man.
The buildings around her were unfamilar, defiently not the street she had been on before. "Toto we're not in Kansas anymore..." She mumbled, and rubbed her head. Her body ached like she had run a long race, and she mentally groaned. "Where am I and who are you?"

"My name is Ineta, and we're in Astranaar." He frowned slightly and brushed his long purple hair out of his face and tucked it behind his ear. "I don't remember you being here before. Are you a traveler? And how did you get such bad wounds with noone else around?" He looked into her gray eyes with his dark green ones to try and keep her calmed.

"Huh? What? I got hit by a car..." She shook her head, brushing her hair out of her face. Reason noticed that it was sticky with blood. Grimacing, she wiped her hand on her pants. "I have to be dreaming. Or dead. How else would I not be hurt?" She was muttering to herself. Standing up, she looked at her clothes. They were ragged now, her pants ripped at the knees and her shirt tacky with blood turning brown. "Damn I love these pants." Thinking about such things was keeping her from running away screaming.

"I can assure you it's neither. I don't really know what a 'car' is, but you were lying here with very grave injuries, so I rushed over and healed you before you lost too much blood. Try not to move around too much, I only closed the wounds and knitted the bone." He blew out the candles and placed his hand on her head for a moment. The beads glowed as he softly said a quick incantation, and then he took his hand away. "There, that should help clear your head and calm you a bit." He slipped the beads back into the robe and looked at her bloodied face again. "What is your name, and where do you come from?"

Reason looked at him funny, suprised her dizziness had eruptly disapeared with his strange words. "You don't know what a car is? You know a vehicle? You drive them? Take gasoline?" When her explaination didn't seem to hit home, she shook her head. "I should probally be hit dead. Maybe that's what's wrong." She sighed. "I guess I'll play along then. I'm Reason. I'm from New York City." She held out her hand to him.

"Hmm, I've never heard of any of those things or places I'm afraid. The only 'vehicle' that we can drive around is hitching up a cart to one of the beasts of burden." He took her hand, shook it once, then tried to help her to her feet. "We should probably get out of the road. It's empty now, but it will get very busy later."

Reason swayed when she got to her feet. "You've never heard of New York? Where do you live? A different universe?" She shook her head, even people in foreign countries had heard of New York. "You know, in America? Aren't we there?" If it was a hallucianation of her own making it sure didn't make any sense to her. She glanced at the guy's long robe and beads. "What are you a wizard or a preist or something?" If she peiced it together maybe she could figure out why exactly she was in here.

"I'm a priest. I deal with the divine and the shadow. The color of my robe should tell you which I prefer. And seeing as I have never heard of America, I feel safe in saying we are not there." He raised his eyebrow at her and took another look at her odd clothing. My, she is most certainly not from around here... I wonder how she got here.

She frowned at him looking at her. "Whatcha see on me that makes you want to stare?" She felt like she was getting checked out. "Go feast your eyes on something else." She covered her blood stained shirt with her arms. It was sticking to her body, and she wondered if there were holes in it. Scooting away from him, she was wondering if he was one of those freaks that think they could do magic. That would explain her miraculous recovery, but if this was all a dream, it didn't mean a thing at all.

He clasped his fist in his other hand and bowed. "My apologies Reason. I was merely intrigued by your odd apparel. I've never seen people wearing clothes like them." He turned his eyes over to the direction his house lay. "I really should get thse things over to my house. Will you come with me? I'm worried for your saftey in your current state."

Reason stared at him as he bowed. "You are really strange..." Looking down at her jeans and t-shirt she wondered what was weird about them. "I guess I'll go with you." She shrugged, she guessed it really wouldn't hurt, he seemed nice enough. Just really really strange. Walking to where he was, she asked, "Where do you live?"

"Many people think me odd for being a priest. I don't live too far away. It's in the... slums I guess you would call it. A small little house, but it's in good repair, so I don't mind." He started walking slowly in the direction of his house, the buildings and streets getting a bit more grungy and smaller as they went along.

"Why do you live in the slums?" She rushed to keep up with him, her body groaning in frustration. "Ow ow.." She muttered, looking down at her legs that were shaking slightly by trying to hold her up. "Damnit." Reason said, and fell down.
::REAL WORLD::
Her eyes blinked open, a searing pain in head in her head making her close them agian. She couldn't move her arms, it felt like a thousand needles were sticking out of them. "Gahh.." She tried to speak, but a tube was down her thoat. She looked around confused, before falling back under...
