He twitches lightly on the ground. He had fully expected to be killed, and the shock of it had put him down. He gives another damp cough as he wakes, and it all comes back to him- including the pain. Deep and serious as his other wounds were, it's the claw marks down his face that seem to hurt worst. He screams, curling himself into a ball and clutching at them. "Aaaaah! It hurts! Travel this summer, they said. Study abroad, they said!"

Iri winces. Though it's good to see that the kid isn't in a coma, she had hoped he wouldn't have to experience the pain of his wounds quite yet. If he had stayed out, it would have made things much easier.
She tentatively reaches out, trying to grab him by the shoulder. At the same time, she says as consolingly as possible, "Look, you need to stay still. You'll make yourself bleed faster if you keep doing that. Tier went for help. He should be back soon. Just relax and breathe, kid."
Jin looks to Kwubara, nods, and takes the kit. "Thank ya, stranger."
The dragon holds the kit out to his teacher.
She mouths a quick "thank you" to Kwubara and takes the kit. "There's gotta be some kind of antiseptic in here. And the bandages..."
Iri mutters to herself as she removes anything that looks useful and sterile. She's really beginning to think she should have taken first aid and medical lessons from her mother.

He screams again, the cuts in his shoulder burning as the adrenaline wears off ceasing to mask the pain. He clutches at his face, pressing until his nails break skin. "She's mine, do you hear me?"

~Having a bit of trouble, Irianna?~
Seph stood on the roof, overlooking the courtyard. He flicked his cigarette away.

Violet eyes widen and blink. That was strange. Iri turns her head to look at Jin. One slender brow is raised in inquiry.
Jin just shakes his head. Obviously, it went over his head, too.
Taking a stab at the comment, Iri looks back at the boy. "Ya mean the black woman with the sharp flying objects? Or are you in a totally different place right now? Because, if you're going into shock or something--"
A powerful right hook to her shoulder knocks Iri back a bit. When Iri looks at him, Jin puts a finger to his lips in "shush" motion. He's clearly trying to prevent Iri from scaring the stranger.
Iri widens her eyes in comprehension and looks back. Time for a different approach. Don't doctors usually talk to people? To try and keep the mind off of the pain?
"Okay, so what's your name? And where are your parents? How can we get a hold them?"
If the kid croaks, Iri at least wants to know who he is and who she has to inform.
A voice in her head gives Iri a bit of hope. She turns around, having seen something move out of the corner of her eye, and stares up at Seph.
"Trouble? Eh, you might say that. So, you wouldn't happen to know anything about ijutsu, would you? I think I remember you having practiced it. This kid's beat up pretty bad, Seph."

He sits up, tearing his hands away from his face. He stares at Jin with green light seeming to pour from the livid cut down his cheek. "You wanna get hold of someone? Get hold of that freaky b***h with the razors, and bring her back."
He narrows his eyes, staring hard as he lies, though it's not quite clear who he's trying to convince. "Aven is my mother," he says simply.

~Shojiki. Well, maybe Sensei, now. Considering the previous Sensei decided to up and ditch.~ He disappeared in a burst of fire, then reappeared back on the ground in a trot that slowed as he reached the three of them.
He knelt next to the boy and almost glared at him. "Hey. Shut up. Iri, I just got here a few seconds ago. Somebody kicked this kid's a**, were they using any weapons that might be poisoned?"

The dragon jumps a little when the boy looks at him. It's not his words. It's the... stuff... leaking out of his wounds. Jin has seen plenty of things bleed. Some bleed red blood. Others ichor. But this looks different.
Jin looks at his teacher, not really sure what to say.
Iri is staring at the green substance, too. She thinks she knows what it is, but can't be sure. The person she's thinking of never bled foxfire. At least, she never witnessed that kind of thing happen.
"Aven, huh?" That name firmly rings a bell. He definitely mentioned that name. Iri looks over at Seph. "I don't think she used poison. Didn't seem to be her style. Rai and blades were her weapons of choice. You think otherwise, kid?"

(Just to clarify, it's sealing up his face, not exactly dripping. I know I used a bad word choice there >.>)
"Nnnnnnno idea," he says, wincing through the effort not to scream. "I mean, I didn't think she was gonna jump me either, so is it really my opinion yer wantin'?"
"Besides," he says childishly, which is fortunate because he is a child, "Some people don't want me talking."

(( Ah, that helps with the visual. Thank you! ^_^ ))
"Well, there are symptoms to being poisoned. Do the wounds burn? Is there a funny smell coming from the wounds? Are you sick to your stomach? Wait, pain can do that. Anyway, point being, you can sometimes tell if a blade was poisoned. But I don't think they were, so we're cool. We just need to patch up all of your... holes."
Iri winces as she looks the boy over. To be honest, she's surprised he's alive. Most kids probably would have died from shock or blood loss. This one is sitting up and coherently speaking. Though, she does have a theory behind that.
"So, what now, Seph?"

"Glad we understand each other. Potty-Mouth." He nodded softly. "If there were a poison, he'd be reacting to it by now." Seph held his hands over two separate spots at a time, halving the time it would take him to do his job. White chakra poured from his palms, sewing the muscle and tissue back together. He healed the larger wounds together, leaving the smaller wounds to heal on their own.
He stood back up. "He's set. I'm leaving some of the smaller wounds because.. well, they look to be healing up on their own. And a little pain could do the kid good."

"Rrrrrrrof course it burnssss!" After Sephiroth completes his ijutsu, he blinks, the blue in his eyes starting to overpower the green. "Well, burned." He looks at Sephiroth, not understanding what he did, but at this point sort of taking it for granted. "Thank you," he says, a grudging look on his face.

Iri rolls her eyes. "Kids." Then she looks over to Jin. "I'll stay here a bit longer. For now, I want you back at the Kaze Dojo. Don't take the tram or use dragon flight. I want you to figure out how to fly using the wind. Get to it. And remember to add chakra into your amethyst as you do it!"
Jin stands at mock attention and salutes. "Ma'am, yes, ma'am!"
When Iri gives him a raised eyebrow and an irritable glare, Jin takes off for the trees at a run.
"The scary wind lady be starin' me down!"
As he runs off, Iri sticks her tongue out at her student. When he's vanished into the trees, she turns her attention back to the boy. Violet eyes narrow. The avian is thinking, but she doesn't voice her thoughts or let them show on her face. Instead, she just stares at her feet, arms crossed and one wing elbow scratching the back of her head..

Seph nodded to himself. "Iri, I think it'd be wise if you learned Ijutsu, too." He then glanced to the boy before placing another cigarette between his lips and raising an eyebrow. "What's your name? Feel like I've seen you before."

Tier had arrived at the Main Dojo from the Tsuchi Dojo with Ren. He exited the tram and made his way over towards the group.
When Tier got there, he realized that the boy was already healed. "WAT?"
