Blue Skin suits You (Ana)

[Ximal]

Returning to the camp Xi caught site of a very worried and very agitated ana. Somethign was off but he couldn't quite tell what,however given her positioning and the dimness of the fire, she'd probably passed out again. Xi sighed and stepped closer offering a hand to help her up but before he could something caught both his and her attention apparently, a rustling in the bushes. beofre xi could even say anything a lynx lept from the bushes and pounced upon ana, clawing at her. Oh no not today, the fire died as ana hit the ground blown both dirt and a heavy burst of air to put the fire out. She'd begun to struggle and push the lynx off of her, with ana's small frame and lack of strength that was about all she could do. Xi raced over dropping the water skin and in a single movement swung his arm down low as if going for a boxing upper cut before twisting his hand near the point of contact with that lynx. Sending the blasted thing flying into a tree and off of ana. Xi now stood over the creature but between it and ana. The beast snarld and let out a roaring scream. Xi's eye's grwew hard as instead of relying on his bare hands he reached to his side and pulled the staff like weapon he'd worked on from it. He had to keep this thing away, those claws were sharp and could slice him open at any point without steel protection. Holding the staff in his right hand he held it almost like a sword. Ready for when and if the beast should strike again. The snarl crept up it's side as Xi stepped closer, eye's locked on it trying his best to try and get it to leave with pure intimidation factor alone, but it clearly wasn't working. Xi readied himself, he didnt have tiome to slip his gauntlets on or this would be much simpler but right now...he had the weapon he'd been working on and that would be enough. Xi stepped closer and the beast lunged at him. Xi covered his hand with the small loop in the staff, and punched the best in the muzzle with it , useing the layered wood to help enhance his punch. As well as utilizing the turning force of his body. Knocking the beast away. Beofre it could get back up Xi Simply stepped above it and brought his hand down hard onto the back of it';s neck snapping it instantly. It was only at that point Xi felt a pain emanating from his hand. As he looked down eh saw blood, from the back of his palm. Just fantastic. Xi'd punched the creature in the muzzle but it's teeth had ripped olen a cut alon the back of his hand digging into some minor veins, nothing too deep but deep enough that it was bleeding. Pulling the torn short from last spring from his body pack with his unhurt hand Xi tore off a long strip and wrapped his hand in it to try to stem the bleeding, and wrapped it tightly. Gods damn it. "Ana are you alright ? That beast didn't hurt you did it ?" Xi raced back over and lifted her off of the ground before noting the cut from her ear, half way down her jaw. Petch it all, why can't i be faster and stronger!

[Ana Sol Starris]

There was blood. Lots of blood, she could feel the red liquid just ooze, and flow thickly out of the three sharp cuts in her skin. They stung and burned, but that wasn't what was making Ana panic, it was the fact that she was shaking and twitching, she felt light headed and sick, dizzy, cold where the burn was not. She had to cover the wounds, NOW. With a growing tremor in her body, Ana wrapped her hand around her cloak and started to try and clot the large cats scratches as desperately as she could. In Ana's mind all that mattered was keeping the flow of blood stemmed, so she scrunched her neck inwards to try and smoosh the severed skin back together along with tightening her cloak where she had been bleeding profusely. When Ximal rushed to her all frantic like, could anyone blame her when she snapped at him for gawking instead of helping? Gasping out painfully "Don't just stand there, we need a medic--!!" she cringed as a wave of nauseia passing by made her world spin rapidly, crumpling into a ball, she began to whimper. There was pain in her jaw, pain in her throat, pain in her stomach, her body, her head, the cat hadn't even scratched the rest of her body, but she was going into shock. Black edged into her vision, suddenly the idea of sleep wasn't so bad, just ignore the problem and it would go away.. It was a suspicious thought, one that had an underlying consequence to it. She didn't listen to it, fearing too much what the outcome would have been, instead she clung to Ximal, focusing on keeping pressure applied to the deep scratches. The fool had finally picked her up, and rushed away from the scene, hopefully to Spires, to the medical petal, she groaned as another wave of uncertaintity crashed on her. Shutting her eyes for a moment, she wouldn't open them again until help had been recieved, and hopefully quickly.

Xi's mind would have been racing all over the place if he hadn't already made it up as she spoke he was already well ahead of her, scooping her up into his arms at the same time pulling his djed down into his legs to help get him a sprinting start towards the entrance back to the spires, cursing both mentally and out loud. He balled her tightly against his chest and ran, just sprinted. He was headed back into the city towards the medical petal letting the time slip past as fast as possible, getting there as quick as he could. As he arrived he booted in the door of the clinic. "Get me a doctor, or i swear i'm going to make your day very damn difficult!" Xi glanced down to check on ana to see she had already passed out. Then snapped his eyes up. "NOW!"
