Yumi gasped and followed, getting on the ground. “U-Um! I think I can… do… I…”
Yumi sighed. “What am I thinking… that wound is too large… I-I… I’m useless again…”
Yumi broke into tears, her voice stuttered again. “Damnit! If only I would have followed the sound sooner! I could have helped!”
Yumi covered her face, tears pouring down her cheeks, dripping through her hands. Yumi screamed, her voice was loud, extremely loud. Yumi clenched her fists, trying not to do something she would regret. “I’m so sorry Tempest!”
Yumi dug her nails into her head, her eyes looked darker then normal, her face paler. Tears were staggered. She bit her tongue, closing her mouth.
Rose pointed her wand to Tempest's wounds and focused until she cried out in shock and pain as her nose started to leak crimson, just adding to the large stained area of snow around them "Keep her back." Rose gently told Yumi but her expression turned sour when looking upon Dare, wanting to kill her if she was honest, but Tempest wouldn't want that. She just continued to try to mend the wounds with little success.
He injected the rest in…and looked over to Yumi and Rose "They want to help you do that Dare…I wanted to do that…you're…you're gonna be fine…make sure Yumi gets to her new home p-please." and with that Tempest fell to his side, his breathing slowly as the world behind him darkened, and yet darkened further as a tired sensation feel into his mind.
"TEMPEST!" Rose yelled and sprinted to his side, falling to her knees "Don't you give up you idiot! People need you…your sister needs you…I…need you." She says as tears started to flow from her eyes, pulling out her wand to attempt to undo any injuries that she could
Dare fell unconscious, swimming in the dark sea of her mind. She tried to call up Zerack’s gift, but the connection was severed, the space where the gift was before blank. “No… NO!” she yelled inside her head. “Tempest, you IDIOT! Why couldn’t you have made this easy, you fool!?” She slowly blinked her eyes open and saw the blurry shapes of Rose and Yumi nearby. She tried to get to her feet, but she couldn’t move.
"His wounds aren't closing…Yumi please help." Rose begged as her healing spell was causing almost a waterfall of blood down her face
"It's okay…she needs me gone to go home…please…let me go." Tempest muttered "I want to make sure she can go home." Every word sounded like he was gurgling nails as his body started to feel numb
Yumi put a finger on Tempest’s mouth. “Don’t talk, it’s too much on your lungs. Hold on, I think if I can gets some leaves with sticks I can patch it a bit, well enough so we can get him help.”
Yumi looked around, some small, weak sticks were lying on the ground, but not a lot of big leaves. She looked up, some big leaves were on the top of the tree, she backed up, and transformed into her mech, her height was just enough, 8 feet. She grabbed a lot of big leaves, then transformed back. She sat them down with the sticks, and grabbed some weeds. “I can use your help, it should help stop the bleeding. It might not be enough though…”
"Alright I'm trying." Rose desperately muttered as she mutter different spells, forming the materials onto makeshift bandages.
Dare used the tree behind her to drag herself into her knees, still woozy and rather uncoordinated. “What’s going on?” she asked, her voice sounding like her mouth was stuffed with cotton balls. “What’s happening?” She saw Tempest lying prone on the ground, his blood staining the snow. “Who did this?”
Yumi ignored Dare, not wanting to get distracted, it kind of hurt to do so, but she wasn’t scared anymore, all that counted was helping Tempest. She grabbed a stick, ripping open the shirt, exposing the wound, she put the stick right beside the wound, then rapped weeds around his body, then put leaves underneath the weeds. The blood was still running though. Oh no… it’s way too bad…
Yumi watched the blood slowly leak through the leaves. “I can’t do anything else… this is the best I can manage.”
"You did…you don't remember?" Rose asked as her magic was creating nature made bandages and sutures for the wounds of her friend. She gave Dare a confused look
“I- what?” Dare remembered perfectly well, but she really preferred to remain alive, so feigning ignorance was her best bet. “What do you mean, I did this?” She looked back over at Tempest and faked a wince. “How can I help?”
Rose wasn't so easily fooled though and softly asked Yumi to keep working on Temp who as least still had a semi-steady pulse. Rose moved her wand from her friend to Dare as her eyes turned a pale purple, the yew wood in her hand gave off a light that matched her eye color "Are you quite sure you aren't playing the fool for us?" the light bathed across Dare's face, the light trying to peer into Dare's mind to pull any discrepancies between her words and her true intentions.
“Whatever happened, I never intended it to end like this. Really. Tempest has been nothing but kind to me since I met him, and it hurts to see him like this.” Everything that came out of Dare’s mouth was true, even if it was a little twisted. She squinted against the lavender light, still sensitive from her injury. “Please. You have to believe me.”
Yumi stood up and starred at Dare, slightly angry. “You left me, you left me abandoned. You promised you wouldn’t leave me by myself, yet you and Tempest got away from me, left me to fend for myself. You are lucky that girl found me.”
Yumi looked more aggressive. “First you go alone and get yourself hurt, then you leave me and try to kill Tempest.”
Yumi screamed. “OF COURSE I DON’T BELIEVE YOU! STAY AWAY FROM HIM!”
Tears formed in Yumi’s eyes as she screamed, she didn’t mean to sound that angry, but she got attached to Tempest fast, and felt safe around him. Yumi got back down and held the made from scratched bandages as she detached her chest plate, ripping of a piece of cloth from her shirt, and put it over the wound, under the leaves.
“And you think you know everything, don’t you? You idiot, you have no idea what you just walked into!” Dare yelled, pulling herself to her feet unsteadily. “I was so close to making it home, and then Tempest had to interfere and you two morons show up. Why can’t you just let things be, goddammit! I was gonna go home!” Clutching the tree for support, Dare was barely able to support herself and her screams nearly knocked her to the ground.
There was then the sound of crunching leaves and a voice that sounded if lavender had just a pleasant sound as it did a scent, a mask of the true intentions behind it "Dare my little one?…Those were gunshots I heard correct?"…Dare and Rose would know this voice, for it had terrorized Haven for as long as Rose could remember. This was the voice of the man that had killed it's leaders and left it's fate in the hands of their offspring, their children: The Daniels siblings, one of which was currently conflicted on letting go and fighting on, just wanting to keep his friends safe…even if they make mistakes.
“Yes, those were gunshots. I’m so sorry—Tempest electrocuted me, then removed your gift. I couldn’t stop him,” Dare said, her voice raw. She dropped to her knee and bowed her head, out of both exhaustion and subservience. “I failed you,” she mumbled.
Rose rose and looked around at the surrounding brush and trees "Then come on and show your face, so it yourself instead of sending others to do your work!" Rose couldn't hide a slight tremble in her voice as she held out her wand "You know…you humans are so easy to seduce…one simple…lie is all it took to get one's morals to change so quickly." his voice seems to come out of several directions. "That gift was a death sentence…but that damn boy removed it before you could kill him. Never mind that now for you have brought me Two Haven members. Their co-leader hanging to life by less than a thread and their mage…even in failure you have done well."
Dare looked up. “You… weren’t gonna let me go home?” she asked pitifully. “I don’t care if I die, I just need to say goodbye. Look at how well I’ve done. Let me go home and see my uncle one more time, and if you do, I’ll let you kill me and revive me as one of your servants and I’ll serve you forever.” Dare really didn’t care about her moral code or what was ‘right’ anymore. She just wanted this whole thing to be over once and for all.
"You think we'll even have use for you? You've done your part silly mortal!" a little giggling voice said emerging from the brush. It was Jester that Johnathan had fought before, along with another shadow warrior that was nonspeaking, dressed in ancient hunting robes worn from the years, a bow in their hand along with a bit of shadow matter shaped into an arrow notched. "Kill them…bring me the Haven member's bodies."
Yumi looked down at a Tempest, in complete silence. She put her index finger on his chest, where his heart is, and felt him leaving. She couldn’t believe it. She was right, everything she does is stupid and useless, sure she can build and can solve things, and somewhat tend to wounds, but all she has to defend herself is a stupid katana that will never help her. Yumi felt tears run down her face, her expression disappeared completely. It was expressionless, all that has there was subtle tears slowly going down her face.
“I-I’m sorry Tempest…” She whispered. “I can’t help anybody… no wonder you left… I can’t even treat a wound properly…”
Dare grabbed the empty syringe and whispered a command. It spiraled out into a silvery shield and she remained crouched against the tree. “Between a corpse and a shadow warrior, the latter sounds far more useful. I’m willing to do whatever it takes,” she called from behind the shield.
(Wait I cant reply I need to walk home wait for meeeee)
(I’m having trouble breathing so I won’t be on for a bit)
Rose let out an inhumane growl as she stood to her, snapping her wand in half and jammed the crystal like core into his largest wound. She extended her hand and a wooden staff shot from her sleeve it had a heart like shape at the end like an arrow tip, and the staff defiantly was not there a few seconds back and stood "We've sacrificed too many friends..too many family members…I'm not gonna let you take any others away…even if some of them are acting pretty damn spineless right now!" she glared at Dare's shield a second before turning and charging the two shadows, slashing at Jester and pushing the silent one back. Jester leapt backwards and let out another little giggle while the mute one stumbled and fell onto their bottom.
