Umbra soon sees Danu in the corridor ahead of him, dragging a metal panel that looks like it is a smashed off blast door.
Her gaze is blank and her face expressionless, eyes glowing softly with the swirling mist of the ship's life support giving the appearance of a halo in the soft light that surrounded her.
Half of one of her arms was gone, broken off at the elbow, and her robe had become tattered, the fragments flapping about.
Anyone who saw her like this would realize that her body had already become lifeless, yet she was clearly still moving and trying to fufill a purpose.

Umbra doesn't move, completely astonished.
"Wha... How..."
His eyes move to the 'halo'.

"Yes, that'd be great... God, I need some caffeine..."
Umbra takes out a small pill and pops it in his mouth, leaning against a wall.
"...Wait a minute, that's not..." Umbra stands up again, a little less tired. "That voice..."

Reaching the reactor room, Danu opens the bulkhead door and goes inside, shutting it from inside and latching it to prevent Umbra from following her- the radiation would kill him.
He can hear some scraping and banging sounds as she attempts to fit the plate over the hole.
Not long after it stops the bulkhead opens again, letting her out before latching it once more.
She looks at him, half of her face blackened from exposure and hair completely gone, before collapsing.
What remained of her body was soon nothing more than a mess of ice on the floor, a shining crystalline object visible on the top of the pile. She had managed to plug the leak, eliminating the danger to the people below, and fufilled her purpose.

Please describe your pain on a scale of 1 to 10 so proper painkillers or opiates can be administered.
*the drones put Danu's lifeless body on the table and open her chest, first performing rapid angiogenesis on the heart to get it pumping blood with assistance from electrical stimulation, then the skin all over is decontaminated so she doesn't irradiate Umbra*

There really wasn't much of a body left to reassemble though. Just a pile of ice, as ordinary as any other, and in the shape of what her body would have been like.
Though the drones seem intent on proceeding, the ice simply shatters as a result of their efforts and fairly rapidly sublimates.
The only thing left of Danu was the crystal that Umbra was carrying, her body had dissappeared leaving only ice and traces of her hair behind.
Umbra hears Danu's voice in his mind.
Take the crystal to Wurg, don't worry I'll be fine.

// the crystal doesn't work how they think... It's basically a container for the soul and... Probably some kind of magic. It can't be used like that, but Danu will return- don't worry about it.
// even then, though, I don't exactly know the specifics... Best to ask Odin about it.
When the drones go for the crystal in his coat, Umbra leaps back. "Hey! I need this to revive her! No touching!"
He quickly portals out, landing in front of Wurg's house. He falls flat on his face and blacks out, the portal closing due to his lack of consciousness.

// nope. Whenever Umbra uses his gloves, it subtracts from his energy... After about 3-5 uses, he's just barely awake. He had enough left in him for one more, so even without the knowledge thing he would have passed out- hence why he's using them less and less nowadays, unless it's absolutely necessary.
// the teleports work sort of like the portals from Portal as well, in that they're basically mini-wormholes that anyone and anything can use while they're open. He has to actively keep them open, though, so it gets more tiring the longer he keeps one open.

*something comes out alive from the surgery room, but it's not Danu reborn, it's something, sick, ttwisted, and very angry*
Umbra groans and slowly rises.
"Argh... Not a good way to fall asleep..."
He knocks on Wurg's wall.
