"Those herbs i showed you earlier should make sure that u arent too tired for the day, just make sure you get some real sleep tonight. " said skye noting the realization on her face. "I've used it before myself and it works fine it just isn't a good idea to use it twice in a row if you don't have to, " he said as he tucked his tail over his paws
Letha nodded "Ok, let's get going then," she grabbed another loaf of bread form in her bag and a few pieces of dried meat for Skye.
Skye scarfed down the meat, and allowed letha to mount again. This time he took of at a pace similar to a trot. as they headed toward the city
(K, I'm going to bed, i'll answer in the morning, gn!)
(Okie dokie)
(G'Morning!)
(Heyo!)
Letha smiled happily as they neared the city, seeing the slightly medieval towers and gate.
Skye slowed as the city came into veiw, resuming a slower walk. his ears perked back toward Letha "Hey um it probably isnt a good idea to go in there as a wolf right now, um.." he said hesitantly
"Yeah, can you change back or do you want to stay out here?" Letha nodded and looked down at him, holding onto a handful of fur lightly.
"I can shift back… but it might knock me out cold." he said, "I wont shift if you dont think you can handle that.. But im not staying out here either."
"I can handle you shifting, I know someone in the city, if we get you there you'll be safe while you wake back up.." She looked around "Plus..I kinda owe you, you carried me for quite a ways,"
Skyes ears flicked back in assent, then he came to a stop to let letha off. "This probably isnt gonna go well… "He told Letha.
Letha hopped off and squatted down next to him "It'll be fine Skye," she smiled "As soon as you change we'll get going, I'll carry you if you are out cold."
Skye nodded then shut his eyes as he willed himself to shift, this shift actually hurt, which wasn't normal.Then it was over, he sat down heavily on the ground, so dizzy he couldnt think straight, he tried to sit up straight but was just a bit too dizzy to do so..
Letha put a hand on Skye's shoulder "Skye?"
skye let out a low moan of pain, but managed to meet her eyes, "we should keep going…" he said weakly
"O-ok, I'm just going to pick you up ok?" She carefully scooped Skye up, thanking her older brother for being so lazy in the mornings when she was younger.
Skye let her pick him up, more than a little uncomfortable at the switch in position, but grateful that she could actually do it, he then turned his focus to not throwing up as they neared the city.
Letha hummed quietly as she carried Skye, walking up to the gates and having a quick conversation with the guards. She walked into the city and took a deep breath, nervous with the crowds of people she saw.
Skye barely noticed the conversation with the guards, as he struggled to stay semi conscious, he noted the fact that they were in the city, all he could really do was hope that there were no watching hunters either.
(Hey are you still here?)
(oof, sry, I had to help my friend move a dresser, I'm back now but I might be on and off, I have to clean my room..)
Letha walked into the crowd, looking ahead and clenching her jaw, her muscles tense. "We are a few blocks away from my broth- my friends house," she muttered to him and continued walking, avoiding looking at the people around her.
"uhhuh" murmered Skye. as his consciousness wavered,
(Okie, sry this is so short Skye is close to blacking out that i cant really do much….)
(it's oke)
"Just hold on.." Letha muttered and walked faster, finally getting to the house. She knocked and put on a fake smile "Hi Cal! I know this is short notice but do you have somewhere I can set Skye?" Cal looked at Letha and wrapped her in a hug, trying not to squish Skye. "Yes! Letha! come on in," Cal smiled brightly and opened the door, showing her a small cot "Is this good enough?" Letha nodded and carefully set Skye down "Ok Skye, I'll be back, I'm going to get the Mira flowers."
Skye moaned with dizzynes and pain as the gash he'd gotten burned and sent waves of pain coursing through him,
(Sry, it's long, I kinda got carried away XD)
Letha gave him a quick hug and jogged out the door down to the shop. She got there and immediately backed up, there were six hunters waiting around the Mira flowers. "What do I do.." she whispered and sighed, taking out her daggers I need to do this.. she thought to herself and walked into the store, nodding to the hunters. She walked to the main counter and sighed walking over to the flowers "Excuse me.." she muttered and tried to get around the hunters. "No can do little lady." a raspy voice said and pushed her away "Please," she whispered and walked back to the hunters. "Don't make us do this.." the voice said again and she watched the hunters pull out swords with the same glow. Letha glanced at the swords and made a grab for the flowers, getting a handful and running. She could feel the pounding of feet as the hunters ran after her, quickly gaining ground "No, no, no.." she muttered and tried to go faster, her body drained of energy.
Skye sent his mental ghost out, sensing that there was trouble, projecting himself mentally onto the streets he saw six hunters following letha, nearly blacking out when a wave of pain hit him he reached for his amulet in the physical realm, grasping it he attempted to say one word, "I have to protect her… those hunters will kill her if i dont…" he grasped it, "Neb-Nebulae Al-Alta blaze…" he murmered then his skin changed and it was suddenly lined with deep violet streaks, his form pulsed just barely with light as a wave of pure agony washed over him, then he called out to his brother, "Sirus!" he mindcalled, He felt Sirus' assent and then the pure shadow aura healing that washed over him, allowing him the strength to reach out once more. he saw letha running from the hunters, projecting his telepathy and pure power over there he sent a wave of fire washing over them and let fireballs attack them not damaging anything but the hunters.
(Ty for giving me stuff to work with!)
(are you ok with gore or nah?)
Letha smelled smoke and fire and she glanced backwards, seeing the hunters being attacked with fireballs. Her steps faltered and she almost fell, running down the street. She turned a corner and jumped into an alleyway, grimacing. She looked at her leg and almost collapsed, seeing a small dagger in her calf. "Well, that's nice," she whispered and hobbled out of the alleyway, jogging down the street to Cal's house. "Hi everyone," she waved weakly as she opened the door and stumbled over to the cot, promptly collapsing on the floor.
(Sure just dont be overly descriptive.)
Skye gasped as he let the spell go, still glowing with the patterns on his skin he tried to pull himself up, succeeding he stepped carefully to letha, crouching unable to hold himself yp, and also noting the prescence of the houses owner and hoping he wouldnt be too angry he grabbed the flowers and plucking the petals he shoved them in his mouth, and felt instant relief, the pain was gone and his vision cleared, mind you he was still unbelievably exhausted. he reached for the dagger in letha's leg and despite the protests of the houses owner he pulled it out then placing his hand on the wound he healed it, then hearing footsteps, outside a low growl hit his throat, standing, his glowing aura growing stronger and brighter by the second he stepped outside to meet them,
Letha felt someone take the flowers from her hand and pull out the dagger. She moaned softly and tried to stand up, almost collapsing, she stood up weakly and swayed, holding her dagger in one hand "I'm ready to fight.." she muttered and leaned on the wall.
