[I know! The secret star! That made me so happy! xDD]
Kai watched him for a moment, then let his narrowed gaze drop to the ground. "I'm sure we'll be fine," he muttered. "If we really don't have time then we'll manage. Besides, there's not much we can learn in just a short time anyway." He had his hand over his chest again, covering the wound. It didn't really hurt, but it was annoying that it just kept bleeding like that. He grunted and looked towards the door, but didn't move. He'd wait and see if Sai had any more questions. He did feel extremely guilty about what had just happened, and felt useless for not being able to do anything. But that was also why he was so defensive on the matter, though he was mentally blaming himself for sure, cursing himself for what he'd done. He deserved a lot more than just a small stab wound to the chest, or a few cut fingers.
Kaori was pacing back and forth in front of the building now. Kei had crawled out and settled on her shoulder. The only thing that was keeping her from just bursting into the male changing room to see what was taking so long was her extreme embarassment on what she might find.
[Haha, that's fine.]

[[...what would she find? o.O]]
Sai glanced again over at Kai's wounder before grunting. He reached into his tunic and tossed some bandages at him. "If you want to be usefull, wrap yourself up, will ya?" he said, slining his cloak over his shoulders as he turned around. "If not, you're going to faint in the middle of the battle... although it's possible that it'll happen anyway, by now," he said, starting for the door. That little rodent... he thought, the fact that monkichii had run away building on his nerves, He's going to get himself killed by just running over there.

[Naked guys. xD;;]
Kai caught the bandages as they came at him and then growled again. But after a moment, he bowed his head, closing his eyes for a second. "....thanks," he muttered and then quickly wrapped up his right hand, using his teeth to pull it tight. He'd had lots of practice with tying bandages. Then he stripped off his bloody shirt and glanced at his wound for the first time. It didn't look too bad, but it was pretty deep. Kai gritted his teeth as he began wrapping it up as well, after first using his shirt to wipe off some of the blood. The red could be seen seeping through the bandages pretty quickly, but there was nothing he could do about that. Kai tossed the rest of the bandages back at Sai and went out the door.
Kaori spun around as she sensed Kai approached, her eyes widening as she saw he'd cast aside his shirt and was bandaged now instead. Then she bit her lip anxiously and frowned at the two. "Where too?" she asked, a sudden look of determination coming over her face.

[[that's what I thought you were going to say xD tsktsk. that's why you shut your eyes and barge in!]]
Sai caught the bandages and put them back in his tunic before walking out as well. "you're not half bad at bandaging things," he said, joking. He looked around for a moment, wondering which direction they'd gone in, when he saw a purple glow. "Well, I think that's where," he said, nodding towards the forest. "It seems... Mergex is making a big fuss over there... although, I wonder over what.

[And run into someone accidentally. xD;;]
Kai didn't say anything, but smirked very faintly at Sai's comment. As he indicated the forest, Kai glanced over at it as well, catching sight of the glow as well. "Then let's hurry," he said, voice low and eyes still fixed upon the trees. He recalled the last time he'd been there, when Kaori's eye had been injured, and the time before that she'd he'd seen Mergex dispose of his brother. Nothing good seemed to come from entering the forest... He frowned and pushed the thoughts away as he started moving in that direction.
Kaori blinked, glancing at Sai. "What do you think he's doing?" she asked softly, then turned as she saw Kai started to move. "Um, I guess we can talk as we go?" she said a little uneasily, forcing herself not to touch her eye. She'd told Sai she was going to take care of herself and was determined not to show any more signs of weakness.

Kana smiled at him, waved bye to Mead, and headed towards the door, thanking Kumizu for holding it open for her. Then she walked rather bouncily towards the hotsprings. She'd honestly never visited one so she was kind of excited, even though part of her was very nervous about staying in the water for long periods of time. Sometimes, she found it hard just to take a shower.
Kana blinked and pushed these thoughts away, still smiling to herself. No! This will be great, she nodded to herself as she glanced back at Kumizu. Then she paused as they arrived before the springs. "Um, so we just.... go in and change?" she blinked, not really sure on what to do.

Suki teleported to thte springs looking around at some of the hot and steamy baths. She smiled and then took ina breath as she raised her arms in the air. She looked infront of her seeing Kaori and others. She smiled and approached them her hands together always with her flashy smile. "Heyyy"

He smiled. "Yeah, pretty much." As he walked into the guys changing room, to others walked past him. Before he could ask about the wound, the walked off to... somewhere. He shrugged and stepped inside.
He found an empty locker and set his cane down for a moment. He undressed, carefully putting his pants above the rest of his clothes. He grabbed a towel and walked out.
Without any hesitation he stepped into the co-ed part of the springs. He wasn't in the least bit bashful. He also figured that it was close enough to the girls' side that if Kana didn't want to sit with him, they could still talk. He set his towel and his cane next to him, just outside of the spring, then sat back and relaxed. Being in water, of any kind, always helped him unwind. Floating in a pool for half an hour was more invigorating for him than an eight hour sleep.

For just a moment Kumizu kept his eyes closed, enjoying the water. He opened them, and moved in the spring so that he could see her. "My name's Kumizu. It's nice to meet you."

Kana nodded and then watched him disappear into the male's side before walking into the female's. She glanced around awkwardly and then slowly undressed, placing her shirt, pants, and undergarments in one of the lockers. She had no shoes to worry about, but took a moment to strip off her bracelets and necklace. She left her goggles on her head, thinking she might use them for once.
Then she grabbed a towel and wrapped it around herself before heading to the springs. She blinked, not sure where to go until she sniffed the air, picking out Kumizu's scent. She smiled and approached him, towel still around herself as she crouched on the edge nearby. "Hello!" she said cheerfully, her face flushing faintly pink as she trailed her fingers through the water.
She blinked as another girl approached, tilting her head at her. "Hello," she murmured self consciously, tail wrapping around her waist.

Suki smiled again nodding. "same you can bend water? i mean like your water....." she couldn't find the exact words to what he was but could sense it. She saw her and smiled sliding into the water next to him magically her outfit becoming a red bathing suit bikini. "hi im suki i assume you know him already"

Kumizu was surprised. Did she know him...? He couldn't remember her from anywhere, nor did he understand how she knew about water bending. "If that's the formal name for it, then yes, I suppose I can." He noticed Kana seemed uneasy about going in the water. "If you don't want to, we can go somewhere else. I don't mind."

Kana blinked, watching Suki slip into the water beside Kumizu. She tilted her head, feeling almost like she was intruding upon something now, like a third wheel or something. She shifted nervously in place, ears flattening back. "Um, y-yes, I do..." she stammered, eyes slightly wide.
As Kumizu spoke to her, she blinked and rapidly shook her head. "No!" she cried hasitly, having seen how content he seemed to be in the water. "I'm fine, really!" She didn't want to ruin his good time simply because she was feeling awkward herself. Besides, it wasn't really the water itself that was affecting her... Kana glanced as Suki for a second and then inched a short bit away from the two before sitting on the edge on Kumizu's other side, her feet dipping slowly into the water. Kana shivered and pulled the towel more tightly around herself.
