Warrior: The Rising

Stitches the Puppet

Sesa had lied about going back to bed.

He was actually making Elise a gift.
"Ok, now for the Crylart..." he says, gently pulling out a human heart-shaped crystal and putting it into the husk.
He closed the chamber, and it instantly jumped to life.

"Huh? What... where...?" It asked, sitting up in confusion.
"Its ok. Your safe." Sesa says, calming it down. "You are a husk. Your main purpose is to keep your master safe at all costs. Do you understand?"

The husk nods, then slowly stands up.
"Do I have a name?" He asks, clutching and unclutching his fists before his face.
"Your name?" He hadnt thought of that. "Your master will give you your name."

He looked around, then said, "Where is master?"
He smiles, then says, "She is-"
Elise busts into the door, stops, and looks at the husk. "Why does he have stitches?"
The husk perks up.
"Stitches... I like that name!" He said, smiling.  

She looks at Sesa with the 'What the hell is this?' face, maming him smile.
"He's a present. For you." He says as the husk Stitches immediately sets out to help his master.

Elise smiles, kissing Sesa.
"He's amazing, Master. I love him, but not as much as I do you." She said, leaving a red faced Sesa to grumble, "Well, uhm, you... uh.."
