"...Hey. How come you never take the hoodie off....? Even when we found you, you wrapped a blanket around yourself...." Neko asks.

VN stops doing what ever she was doing, then looks over at Neko. VN goes silent.

"Are you hiding something...?" Neko asks.

".........Maybe." VN mumbles.
Willow then walks into the room hesitantly, before noticing VN and running over to her. Willow hugs VN happily.
VN had flinched a bit, letting out a very small hiss in pain before very gently hugging back.

Neko definitely noticed. "Alright, there's no use in hiding it... Take to hoodie off." Neko says seriously.

".....Fine." VN mutters with a small growl. Willow looks up at VN, thinking she was growling at her.
VN then gently pats Willow in the head before letting go of her.

VN then slowly lifts up the hoodie a bit. She stopped it from going higher than her chest.

Neko walks over to VN with a small gasp. There where so many cuts, bruises,... gashes, some looked like they where still bleeding... Her back was all scraped up... same with her hips. But that's not all. Neko could see VN's ribs and hip bones. "...VN." Neko mumbles in a sympathetic voice.

VN growls. "I don't need your sympathy... I'm perfectly fine-! It's just a few large bruises... nothing I'm not already used to." VN mutters, about to put her hoodie back down. But Neko quickly stopped her... Neko was looking at VN's back, before lifting up the hoodie slightly. Neko's eyes widen at what she sees. More cuts... many more cuts and bruises.... But.... there where these two large bruises... that where in the shapes of hand prints.... Right behind her shoulders/on her shoulders.

VN went quiet, knowing exactly what Neko was looking at.

"VN..." Neko mumbles.

"Look. I've had those for a long time. Nothing to worry about." VN says quietly.

"........But... w-who .... who d-did that...? ......... what did they do...?" Neko asks.

"............." That question seemed to really hurt VN. "....What did they do?" VN restated the question. "... Something that led to my breaking point." VN mutters before roughly pulling away from Neko and putting her hoodie back down.
