Focht had to laugh alittle thinking how this must look to anyone watching. He was bandaged up with his left arm useless, and there she was curled up asleep with him as a pillow. He stopped scratching long enough to form a wall of air for him to lean back against, picking back up with the scratching as he manipulated the wall of air to be alittle more comfortable for him instead of just flat.

*Not too soon after she'd fallen into a deep sleep her body grew to be extremely warm, though not at an alarming rate. Nonetheless she was still very warm. She moved only a little during her sleep showing that she was starting to get uncomfortable from the heat. She shifted a little, but not noticeably and started to cough a little, slowly worsening but not enough to wake her. After a few moments the coughing seemed to stop. A long pause before she coughed one last time, this time it was a hard cough that drew a little blood from her insides. She still slept as if nothing had happened, not aware of her coughing fit*

Focht moved his tail away from her, trying to let her cool off. When the scent of blood reached his nose, he became slightly worried. He gently tried to get his energy into her system to help her recover, having another idea that he hadn't used in a long time but it might work if she wouldn't accept his energy.

*Yotsy's barrier that she had put up before she fell asleep was still in effect, so any energy that he tried to give her wouldnt go through no matter how hard he tried. She sighed a little in her sleep and got comfortable again, as if nothing happened and she had not lost any blood at all. She curled back up and slept just as sound as ever, her body still warm. Her tail slowly un wrapped itself from her legs and laid flat on the ground beside her as her body tried to cool itself off*

Focht used alittle bit of his power to create a gentle breeze for her, afraid to try his skill with ice right now. The breeze was just enough to move the leaves on the ground alittle, figuring she was over the coughing fit for now. If she started coughing again, he would wake her up. He started playing with her hair gently, trying to help her relax alittle more.

*Yotsy was slowly but surely starting to cool off, though she seemed to have a slight fever now. Her body would soon be back to the normal temperature but one touch to her forehead and it'd be enough to really worry someone. She had fits like this once in awhile when she'd gotten hurt pretty badly or if she'd caused a problem with the insides of her body, which in this case she'd broken a couple ribs and caused herself some internal bleeding. Though, that couldnt be seen easily, she was a pro at hiding most of her injuries. By now she'd curled up tightly again like she had the first time, still in the deep sleep, she was unable to feel much of anything but a pounding headache. Though once in awhile she did feel Focht playing with her hair, it was suttle, but nonetheless she'd notice it from time to time and then drift off again remebering how bad her head hurt*

Sighing, Focht brushed the few stray hairs out if her face blown there by the breeze. He paused feeling the warmth from her forehead, turning his hand over and using the back of his hand to check since its more sensitive than the palm.
"Yotsy...?"
Focht didn't want to wake her if he had a choice since it would make things easier to explain later if he could get his little trick to work.

*Yotsy moved slightly when she heard her name, she didnt wake though, she just laid there. She moved her hand a little and swatted at Focht's hand as if his hand was some sort of fly bothering her, she had forgotten slightly that she was using Focht as a pillow to make herself comfy and had forgotten to 'de-claw' herself while she slept, so if she hit him he'd be scratched. She was starting to be able to feel things a little more even though her fever had not subsided*

Focht wasn't expecting her to swat his hand. He claws found his palm and cut 5 semi-deep lines in it, a slight hiss heard as his flesh reacted to the silver. Pulling his hand away quickly, he winced slightly from surprise and actual pain. He his hand off to the opposite side she was on, trying to keep the scent away from her.
Closing his hand in a fist, it took on a blue glow for a moment before it expanded rapidly and died. Focht had flash frozen the blood to keep him from bleeding over everything until he wrapped his own hand. He pulled some of the bandages from around his chest, leaning forward to get enough of it from behind him. Having enough fabric, he leaned down and bit the fabric and tore it, tucking the end still attached to what remained around him back into place to keep the bandages from fully falling off. Using his thumb to hold the strip still against his hand, he used his mouth to wrap it tightly and appropriately. Finishing the bandage just as the frozen blood was beginning to melt, he managed to tie it off with his teeth and sighed.
"One of these days I am going to learn......"
Turning his attention back to Yotsy, he knew something was wrong. He thought about waking her up but remembered how stubborn she was.

Kuro's wandering led her straight back to her old safe haven, the small clearing of which had protected her numerous times. She was exhausted and half-starved, she had lost weight and her eyes once warm and beautiful, were now cold and dull. The clearing reflected her and was still slightly charred in numerous places, the after effect of Irvine's angered soul.
No. . .not Irvine, he was Verge now.
Kuro's eyes narrowed slightly and she felt pain fill her heart, but quickly locked it away, not allowing herself succumb to her emotions. Fate had one last thing for her to fulfill before she was devoured by her own heart. She walked to the middle of the clearing and noticed that the tree in the center still stood, she placed a hand on the rough, worn bark.
"You are growing again, but a jumpstart couldn't hurt." She whispered. She let her armor and weaponry drop to the ground closed her eyes, placing both her hands on the tree. Slowly a soft, almost unnoticable glow came from the charred Earth and with it, specks of green lifted to the surface. When she pulled away, the surrounding area was lush and green, the charred area was reborn.
Kuro took one look at her surroundings and smiled. Then her eyes rolled into the back of her head and she collapsed in the soft grass.

*Yotsy finally started to get comfortable again, not even aware that she'd scratched Focht. Her fever had not gone away at all and she was still in quite a bit of pain but nonetheless she was forgetting about it like all the other times. The pain was starting to die down for the moment so the only thing that was really bothering her now was her head. She rolled over in her sleep and managed to slip off of Focht's leg heading right for the ground. If she fell she'd and hit her head on the ground she'd probably awaken, though very cranky considering her head hurt so badly*

Focht reacted as her head began to fall, not thinking and using his freshly sliced hand to catch her. Wincing, he bit his lip to keep quite, gently lifting her head and then moving his leg alittle as he lowered her head back down onto his leg. Sliding his hand free, he checked the bandage to make sure it hadn't completely soaked thru from the sudden and abrupt use. Deciding that waiting wasn't the best option since she seemed to be more dangerous to him while asleep than consious, Focht placed his bandaged hand on her stomach, about where as it began to take on a faint glow, intending to transfer her injuries to himself. Not having done this in awhile, it would take longer than planned. He hoped this idea would work or she would be waking up rather upset with him.

*Readjusting herself on his leg she made herself comfortable again. Almost as if she had not slipped off his leg in the first place. She had started to relax until she started to feel an odd tingle in her body. She shifted a little again knowing that something was going on but she was too tired to wake up. Her body was special to her, since she'd died she was able to create certain warning's that would go off when she set them. The tingle in her body started to really annoy her to the point where her eyes opened up without any given sign. Her sight was blurry but she could sence more so now then before an odd feeling overtop her stomach. As instinct she swatted her hand across her stomach, clawing herself without meaning to while trying to get at what ever it was that was causing her that odd feeling*

Focht's hand took most of the swat for her, continuing to 'take' her old and new injuries. Breaking the process now would just result in the injuries returning to Yotsy and wasting his limited power to do this with. He closed his eye and continued biting his lower lip and to keep his focus on what he was doing instead of the pain of the fresh cuts on the back of his hand. If she kept this up, Focht feared he might not have much of a hand left. The wall he was leaning against faded as did the breeze he had made, his focus on them gone for now.

*Yotsy feeling a little pain from her inital clawing caused her eyes to widen and open, she could see a lot better now. She went to sit up gently and took notice to what Focht was doing, or trying to do. Since she could do relatively the same thing she glared at him and pushed his hand away not paying attention to the claw marks on his hand, or where her claws where going. She held onto his wrist and stared at him with a twizted glare*
"What the hell do you think you're trying to do?"
