"I found her on the pavement- she was bleeding, Zira-"

Herbert sounded slightly breathless as he pushed his way in. There was a rather shapeless form in his arms, wrapped almost entirely in his cloak.

"Clear off the bed upstairs or something-"

"The first time seeing the man in full light was something of an experience. Somehow, the 'vampire' theory seemed even less crazy. Old eyes. Pale skin and hair, of course, and pale eyes of an indeterminate color, but shadowed... He was contradictory. 'Pretty', young features, but he hardly looked young- not anymore." Graverobber's description of Herbert, from The Genetic Underground

"What happened? Who is 'her'?"

Herbert didn't hear him, instead glancing back to the bundle in his arms and muttering in a concerned tone as he followed him up the stairs.

When he reached the bedroom, he hurried by Aziraphale and laid the bundle out on the bed, revealing it to be a very young, very petite girl with a bloody shoulder and a torn dress.

She looked awfully familiar... Then he realized- she'd been at the ball. What had her name been?

"She is my cousin, after all."

He frowned, bring his attention back to the pressing matter- taking care of the girl. "How bad is that gash on her shoulder?"

Slowly, he lowered himself to kneel at her side and took her limp hands with tremendous tenderness.

He pulled the torn sleeve away from the wound and began carefully cleaning away the blood. "It doesn't look too bad," he assured Herbert.

He looked almost ill as he mumbled something unintelligible.

With her shoulder clean of blood, it was fast work to bandage the wound. "Herbert? I think she'll be all right-"

"She's fragile."
