"Shiro!" Lee called out in concern. She saw the blood coming fromg his mouth and his wound. "We have to get this bleeding to stop." She said as she took off her shirt to use it to apply pressure to the wound. It revealed her sports bra, and two angry, jagged scars on her abdomen to match the more faded one on her left eye. She gave a slight shiver to the cold, but only zipped up her lightweight jacket. "Can you lie down?" She asked as she started to dab the blood. "That was a pretty nice move back there. Thank you, for taking care of the mesmerize." She said, while she just started to feel her injuries. She didn't have many cuts, but she couldn't count on both hands how many brusies she had.

"Oi oi, don't do that you'll catch a cold." Shiro said through heavy breathing as Lee used her shirt to help stop the bleeding from his chest. As she dabbed the blood and asked him to lie down he just chuckled as he tried to get back up. "There's no time to lie down, we've still got class and you've got to take a moment to recover from your bruises." As he spoke his hand reached into his pocket and pulled out the potion she'd given him before that he didn't take, hand shaking he held it out to her. "Here, this'll get you back in top shape. Heh heh, you say that attack right? I've got strength to spare, I'll be fine." Shiro chuckled confidently forcing himself to get back to his feet, but as he did more blood poured from his chest and mouth and he simply had to give in to the wound. Paralyzed by a mixture of pain blood loss and cold Shiro fell back down flat on his back, wincing as he tried to clench his fists and keep himself from losing any more strength. "...Damn...maybe I'll lay here for a bit after all. Heh heh heh."

A heart shielded, from the pain and hurt, and also from the joys of life; frozen and guarded...Lee looked him sternly in the eye. "Do not make me force feed you that potion, Shiro. Bruises will heal, and all you need to cure the cold is a warm bowl of ramen. But if you lose too much blood...then you're at the mercy of...everything!" she said as she put more pressure on the wound. She was starting to get worried, Shiro already seemed to have lost a lot blood, what if the potion wasn't strong enough? She looked around at the other students, the snow acted as a screen between them; each group in their little world. She was trying to figure out how to get someone's attention without leaving Shiro. The others didn't look to far away, but she couldn't quite tell with all of the snow and the panic rising in her throat. The snow around them started to turn an angry red; a stark contrast to the pure, glittering white. It brought back that night, when she had finally found her family, when she had gone to save them. And all that greeted her were strewn bodies...staining the snow.
...this heart begins to thaw.

Shiro looked at Lee seriously for a moment, the determination in her eyes as she spoke made it clear that he would not win this battle with her. "Ok, you win. Just don't blame me if you catch a cold is all, heh heh heh." So he uncorked the potion and drank it himself, chugging down a mixture of the restoring liquid and his own blood. He nearly choked on it a few times but he managed to get it all down and coughed as he took in deep breaths, feeling the potion get to work. It was only a single regular potion so it wasn't a great deal but some of his strength was returning and the pain starting to lessen. he winced however as he felt the pressure she was applying to his wound. His internal bleeding managed to seal up and stop but he was still bleeding a bit from his ribs, Shiro wanted to sit up but was afraid Lee might tie him to the ground if he tried to get up again. Looking at her though he noticed she was starting to slip away to somewhere bad in her mind as panic was setting in. "H-hey, hey it's alright. I promise I won't over exert myself again alright? Just relax, no way am I gonna d-die in a place like this." He said with a grin as he placed a hand on her shoulder, whipping the blood away from his mouth with the other.

A heart shielded, from the pain and hurt, and also from the joys of life; frozen and guarded...Lee snapped from her thoughts as Shiro tried to comfort her. She gave him a small smile and took a few deep breaths as well. "That's good to hear." she said as she took his hand and placed it on the cloth of her shirt. "Press down firmly, I'll be right back with some more help, okay?" she said as she got up and ran towards the students. She couldn't remember their names very well so she started to call out, trying to get their attention. "Hey! Anyone! We need some help over here!" She now was starting to feel a little chilled, but she just brought her jacket closer to her and rubbed her arms with her bloody palms. "Anyone!!" she called out again, hoping that someone would hear her.
...this heart begins to thaw.

"Yeah, ok." Shiro said with a bit of a sigh, pressing down on the cloth and keeping pressure on his wound, more bored than anything as he watched Lee walk away leaving him laying there on the cold floor. "Man, how could I let this happen? I wasn't focused enough, I wasn't strong enough. I'm still too weak, I can't let something like this happen again. Whats worse is now I'm dragging Lee down and wasting time. Man this sucks." Shiro lay there, watching his breath frost before him and chucking a bit as he made a joke in his head about dragon breath. He looked around for Lee, knowing that he wasn't suppose to move. But that just wan't his style! Shiro couldn't help it, he had to get up at lest. So with a lot of effort and gritted teeth he managed to get to his knees, then his feet. He kept applying pressure to the wound and didn't move, but at least now he was standing. He couldn't wait to get back to the garden and start training again, he needed to be far stronger if he was going to be a protector of the people.

A heart shielded, from the pain and hurt, and also from the joys of life; frozen and guarded...Lee waited eagerly in the snow, the cold starting to seep into her boots. She heard no replies and was trying to remember the last time she had seen anyone. "I bet that garden we passed while hiking up here would have supplies." she said to herself. Lee walked back to Shiro to tell him her plan. But as she got closer, she saw that he was standing up. "SHIRO!" she yelled at him. "What the heck are you doing!?" she demanded as she ran up to him. She could see most of the bleeding had stopped, but she was now concerned of his now lesser blood volume and the cold. She shook her head and put a hand in his face before he could reply. "Ugh, just don't answer. Look, I can't get to the others, so since you insist on being up and about, I suggest that we walk back to Trabia and get you fixed up." Lee said with her hands on her hips.
...this heart begins to thaw.

Shiro was admiring the clouds of the snowy sky as he took in several cold breaths. This really was rather refreshing, he could get use to a place like this. As Shiro started to feel at peace he suddenly heard Lee's voice and froze up, he was so in trouble. He slowly turned to face her with an innocent smile ready to come up with an excuse, but she put her hand to his face and told him not to. At her suggestion to go back to the garden he looked around, also not seeing anyone else. Where had they gone off to, did they get that separated when in battle? His gaze came back around to Lee who had her hands on her hip and he simply nodded not wanting to get into more trouble. "A-aye aye."

Lee nodded back and started off on the trail, looking back once or twice to make sure that Shiro was holding up okay. The walk wasn't that long and since they were going downhill this time even seemed a little faster. Soon they could see Trabia's entrance. Lee stopped to rest a little bit and also see how Shiro was doing. "Heh, well I can't say that was the first time I ditched class." she said to him. "But it was the first time that I felt obligated to." she chuckled a little bit. "So how you holding up? You aren't going to faint on me, are you?"
...this heart begins to thaw.

Shiro followed closely as he didn't want to get lost. Even though it hadn't been all that long since they had left the garden for the area they were in Shiro completely forgot, his sense of direction was simply non existing. The walk was a little tougher than he thought it would be, oblivious to the amount of blood he had actually lost back there. He was starting to look a little pale and tired, but he held up alright. Through stubbornness or simplicity Shiro was never the type to give in to the early stages of illness or injury, usually not knowing anything was wrong until he'd collapse. Going downhill was kind of a blessing, but at the same time he found it a little difficult to keep himself balanced. Stopping when Lee did Shiro was breathing heavily and had to take a knee to recover. "h-heh...I'm ok, just feel a little weak. All I need is some meat...and I'll be fine...hah." Struggling to catch his breath he stood back up and started for the entrance again. He was really hungry.

A heart shielded, from the pain and hurt, and also from the joys of life; frozen and guarded..."Wait." Lee sighed. She walked around Shiro and stood in front of him, her back facing him. "Come on, I'll carry you the rest of the way." It wasn't that farther, but one: they would both get a little warmer with each others' body heat. And two: She could fix cuts and scrapes, but she didn't know where nor did she even have the money to buy enough restorative items to help him if he passed out. She waited quietly for him to climb up on her back.
...this heart begins to thaw.

"Hey hey, knock it off will ya? A man's pride won't let me be carried by a fellow warrior unless I'm unconscious or dead." Shiro said a little sterner than his normal tone, when it came to matters of a warrior he took it to heart. "I've got enough strength to walk still." He said as he took a few steps forward, placing his arm around Lee and letting her take some of his weight. "With a little help anyway." He said with a chuckle, noticing how cold his body had gotten now that he felt her body next to his. "Now let's find that cafeteria, I always feel better after some meat." He said with a grin taking a far less shaky step forward. "Then we can get your wounds treated."

Lee rolled her eyes. "Okay. Fine." she said as Shiro compromised with her. She was also glad to get some warmth in her as well. They soon came to the entrance, and headed straight for the next draw point. "Let's hope it contains cure." Lee said, a little hungry now herself. And she also worried for Shiro. He said he could take it, but when was it too much? When he was six feet under?

"Uh, draw point? Oh this swirly light thing." Shiro said as they neared the draw point, eying it curiously. "Hmmm, I can't draw cures, can you? I'm not very good with magic." He said still eying the draw point with an alien look, magic was ok but there was nothing like using your own fists and muscles to pound something into submission. His stomach growled loudly as his arm slipped off of Lee's shoulder and he fell to his knees. "Uhg, I'm too hungry and tired. I need a nap." Shiro wobbled for a bit before falling over on his face, hitting the ground with a thud. But a few seconds later loud snoring could be heard coming from his direction as he had a smile on his face. While it may have looked bad at first Shiro was peacefully sleeping, already forgetting about their current predicament.

Lee couldn't draw magic either. She sighed and rolled Shiro over and dragged him to a bench. After making sure he was somewhat comfortable, she went to the cafeteria to grab some food. She bought three hamburgers for Shiro, and some sushi for herself. She went back to where she had left him and ate her meal in silence. She didn't realize how much she had depleted her energy until her stomach was full again. She set the hamburgers aside, and fell asleep next to Shiro.
