It wasn’t until after breakfast that Rita pulled herself out of bed. She hadn’t slept in; she just didn’t want to deal with people while she mulled over the previous night’s events in her head. Goku… She never liked the kid all that much, but he didn’t deserve to go out like that.

How did that even happen? They’d found the cure for him, hadn’t they? Perhaps he didn’t eat it, or they used it wrong, or it was too late, or there was never a cure in the first place… There were a lot of possibilities. Rita was going to have to investigate if she wanted to find the answer.

For now, Rita was headed for the showers. It would give her a chance to clear her head and assess her injuries. The nurse appeared to be aware of the burns, as she gave Rita various bits of advice and warnings for caring for the injury as they walked to the showers. Finally, the mage was given some space to address and find an empty-looking section of the showering area.

Her leg looked about as bad as she thought it would. Any open sores from the previous night had closed, but there were burns and blisters running from the outer side of her shin up to her lower thigh. Careful not to let any soap touch the damaged skin, Rita washed her skin and hair, then spent a few minutes simply standing under the warm water, trying to let her mind relax a little.

She had to talk to Taura. That, and make some inquiries on the bulletin board. With those things decided, Rita returned to the locker area, where she dried herself off, dressed herself, and walked back to the Sun Room.
