*She let out a small sigh and shut her eyes lightly as her hand rose and passed through the heavy flames unharmed, and rested against the burnt bark of the tree. Within a matter of seconds the flames had started to go out. They faded down to the ground, just as if you were turning off a dimer switch. The flames died out when they hit the ground leaving behind the remains of a crispy tree. Upon opening her eyes again a faint smile came to her face because deep down she didnt think she was going to be able to put out the fire. She slowly removed her hand from the tree and as she did the tree slowly blew away in the wind, nothing but ashes now. While the ashes had started to blow away she'd started to make her way over to another tree that was closer to her, having a seat under it to rest*

Focht raised an eyebrow as the tree disappeared into the wind. He looked back to Yotsy and sat on his knees infront of her.
"You sure you're ok?"
He was trying to keep what he had heard out of this. If he had to, he would bring it up.

*Yotsy glanced up at him when he spoke, she didnt move any not even her head to shake it like she wanted. She just analyized his face trying to figure out what he knew about what happened, if he knew anything at all of relavance. She couldnt really see anything, though she didnt even know what she was looking for or frankly why she was even trying. She sighed a little before exchanging glances with where the tree had been and with where he was*
"Yeah, I'm okay . . . I mean I just watched a tree blow away after I killed it and I didnt even get to give it an honorable burrial . . ."
*She stated trying to hide the fact she was bluntly lying to keep her pain hidden*

Focht sighed and looked over his sholder back at where the tree had been.
"I heard you fall...... From how I found you its pretty obvious you are hurting. Whats the worst that will happen?"
He wasn't looking at her but was listening for her movements. Although he wasn't a doctor, he had been in way too many fights not to notice the signs of hiding an injury.

*She let out another small sigh with a long pause as she avoided looking at him*
"Yeah I fell . . . Hit a branch . . . and then hit the ground . . . No Harm done" *She stated as she lowered her eyes to her stomach for a moment and then looked up towards the tops of the trees, still avioding eye contact*

Focht looked back at Yotsy and tilted his head slightly.
"So why are you sitting there holding your stomach so much?"
Either she would give in and let him help or continue being difficult. He had time and could wait.

*She really wasnt used to such persistance from anyone so she really wasnt wanting to answer the question, in no way shape or form. But the constant determination was really starting to annoy her. By now she was starting to have a bit more trouble holding the pain down, but she continued to keep it down the best she could*
"It's probably just a bruise . . ."
*She muttered as she brought her glance down from the tree tops back to her stomach where her hands had been clentched*

Focht stood and held out a hand to Yotsuba.
"Here.... just take my hand and let me help. You may not trust me, but I won't leave you to sit there and suffer."
Yotsy was stubborn to say the least. Things had changed since he left on his 'vacation' and he wasn't above forcing her to accept his help. He would only resort to that as a last option.

*She didnt bother moving her hand towards his. She just stared at his hand and then looked up at him and sighed a little as she held her stomach a little tighter*
"If there was actually something worse then a bruise, where are you expecting to take me to help me?"
*She couldnt help but ask. She hadnt been in this area for a long time and hadnt gotten to know the area well at all. All she really knew was the small space where she'd been staying for the past couple of days. She didnt know anyone besides Focht really, let alone trusted many*

Focht smirked and let his hand fall back to his side.
"Back to the Dojo of course. There is a decent medical lab there I think I can remember how to work. You can stay as long as you want and rest up too."
He knew he was beginning to win this little stand off as his tail begain to sway slightly.

*Yotsuba let her eyes travel back down to the ground. She let out a sigh as she gave a little thought to the offer. She did think there was probably something worse wrong, and it really should be taken care of if it was indeed worse. Then on the other hand, she didnt like the idea of going to a place that had more people then this. She didnt want others to see her in the condition she was in, she really didnt like the idea that she looked weakened like this. She again let out a small sigh as she looked back up to Focht with almost no emotion in her face*
"I'm sorry Focht, but I'm not ready to go to the Dojo. I'll take care of myself if it's worse then just some minor bruising"

"Well, what is it you are worried about?"
Focht was debating on how hard it would be to force her to come along but was afraid he might cause more damage than good. There were always the more agressive options but those would probably mean she would hold a grudge.
"All I ask is that you come along and just let me check to make sure its nothing to bad. It will still be up to you if I treat it or you just walk out the door. I won't make you stay in the Dojo."

*She stared at him for a moment and shook her head heavily as she leaned her back against the tree and proceded to try and stand up like she had done once before. She still had some trouble getting to her feet but she was able to do it on her own. She side stepped him and walked a few feet away from him while still holding her stomach with one hand*
"I'm not going to go. I'd just rather not go, lets leave it at that"

Focht sighed, giving up on convincing her to come just with talking. Turning to face her, he looked at her so if she turned it would be eye to eye.
"Hows this... I can either drag you thru the door kicking and screaming the whole way or we can go, get it over with and you on you way. Its your choice whether you look dignified doing this or not."
There wasn't a hint of any doubt in his voice that he could very easily carry out his threat. His tail begain moving in a more cat-like manner and his body was tensed, ready to move.

*Yotsuba paused to make it seem like she was giving him some thought to his threat. She pushed her hands out infront of her like she was streaching them, and then rose them up into the air to strech her arms. Her claws scrapping together more violently then before*
"I'm sorry Focht"
*She shut her eyes and started to whisper in a forgotten language. Within minutes it looked like Yotsuba had started to turn to dust and scatter throught the area, though if smart enough you'd take a close look at your feet to witness a small pitch black cat with demonic looking wings sprouting from it's back, it's tail swaying from side to side and then in a flash it snuck into the shrubs as if scared off by the tall stature of Focht, compared to it's small size and quick nature*
