Jay bolted upright, shuddering and coughing up oil
Jay bolted upright, shuddering and coughing up oil
“And he’s alive.” Lucille noted, “You alright?”
Addison took a shaky breath. Worrying about Jay was killing her. "J-Jay?"
(sorry for disappearing, I only just woke up)
(sorry for vanishing too) Jay curled up in a ball on his side, still coughing
Jasmine looks away from Jay, although she flinches slightly at every cough. She looks around at the forest. It seems to be telling her something.
"J-Jay?" Addison repeated softly. "Are you–"
"It-It hurts," he responded between coughs
Jasmine walks over to the closest tree. When she places her palm on the tree, she can hear whispering, but can't make out the words.
Addison snapped herself out of her stupor and knelt down beside him. "Anything I can do to help?" She asked softly.
"Water'd be-Water would be awesome."
Addison created a sphere of water. "You sure you can drink it?"
"Ya got a cup?" Jay broke off into another fit of coughing
Addison pulled an empty flask from her belt and dumped the water in it, then handed it to Jay, keeping a hand on his side.
He took it from her and started chugging it. He was done with it in a few seconds. "Y-Ya got any more?"
Addison refilled it quietly.
Jay drank half of it before using the other half to clean off his face. "I. Uh. I'm sorry about that. I've been a lot more hurt than help on this mission so far."
Jasmine places her forehead on the tree, and the whispers become clear. The Princess is near……Keep her safe….. And then it just repeats those words.
"You're fine, man," Phoenix said, patting him on the shoulder, "Like I told Addi earlier, this planet is a lot different than anything you all are accustomed to."
Jay sighed. "I-I know. I just. I don't know. Maybe I shouldn't be out here after all. I might get you guys hurt. Or worse."
"Hey guys?" Jasmine says, turning to face everyone. "I know this sounds crazy, but this tree just said 'The Princess in near…Keep her safe…' What could that mean?"
"Don't know. Doesn't sound like much fun."
“This place isn’t fun.”
"What I wanna know is who the Princess is."
"I um. I don't know. But I don't think it's your normal princess. According to Cyprus, she sounds more like a disguised monster."
