Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Get'ta belt a wear??" Eara mumbled, rubbing the back of her head and finding blood. "Hmph!" she grunted, examining her hand closely. "I'mmmmmmmmmm sleepy feelin'... It hurts my look to head around..."
She yawned, leaning on Piper. "Grinder feels like I went through it... I need an aspirin..."
Looks like someone had a pretty severe concussion. "You two of? Wow. I didn't know that many so of you here could come through the Tree... Do we 'avva 'nough bikes??"

Eara muttered. "I'm fine..." she cursed suddenly at the movement, "HURTS! ******** HURTS!"
She seethed and grimaced, her face contorting as she did everything she could to control the pain.
Morrigan could seriously f#ck someone's day up, without a doubt. "Ahahaa...." she laughed suddenly, leaning against Piper, smiling. "He's... he's gonna be afraid again... AHahaha.... Diiiiie for this. Bloodlusty, she's gonna killll... If fighting Mor was that...... Aled's s**t!" she sighed happily, before they hit a bump.
This simply sent her cussing again, hissing and trying to breathe straight. "Morphine... I want...morphine..." she demanded. "Lots. Lots. Lots of it. F#ck! F#ck! F#ck this, f#ck this, f#ccccccccccccck..."
She coughed a bit, trying not to hurt her ribs or collarbone, but that was neigh impossible. "F#ck.."

"Arms, ribs, leg, shoulders, BROKEN!" Eara shouted at Piper angrily. "F#ck off! Dead! You'd be f#cking dead!" she snarled. "Armed Fir! I did! Not you! Out the window! Not you! Hit the wall! Not. You."
Eara had just as lively a temper as Morrigan, but the fact she was in such a tremendous amount of pain made her all the more volatile.

She didn't realize she had hairline fractures in her skull too, however. It would explain a lot once they were back at base, as would the 3 breaks in her leg, the 13 for her arms alone(her right arm which had absorbed her impact in the wall was basically useless---her left had only 2 cracks), 5 ribs, and 3 again for her collarbone.

"F#cking b***h..." she grumbled, sighing deeply. "Try it. You f#cking try. Tell me how it feels."
She could get the occasional full, undemolished sentence out, but she wasn't always so fortunte. Her anger wasn't so much at Piper so much as the comment. "Mor's bad priestess. Tell her that. Or Kazu-kun, hit him. You be out in second." she hissed. "Aled's scared. Not of you. Me. Or Fir. Or us, ANY us."
So long as she kept the sentences short and choppy she seemed to do well. "Morrigan. Hates her." her voice softened, though it was still wracked with agony. "Fears her in Goddess. Nearly died."
Oh, right!
That was how Fir met Aled, after all.
She was starting to feel sick however, feeling the blood starting to trickle down her neck. "Lucky shot." she sighed deeply. "Really... lucky... shot. Ugh. Dizzy..."
But Eara was right. Without arming Fir so she dodged into a bullet, it was very conceivable that none of them would have made it out alive. As Morrigan was slumped against Julius, never had she looked so peaceful...
But as long as the toxin was in her system, the minute she woke up she was a potential enemy, and a fierce one at that. They wouldn't be able to handle another round of what they just went through, Eara especially.
Then again, Fir was lucky that he escaped as unscathed as he did. He probably had a few broken ribs, but other than that, Morrigan had been too distracted to hit him as hard as she did Eara. Eara had tried to sneak around her to give the others the edge they needed.
That was something Mor never went easy on, regardless of what side she was on. The fact Eara was a bard was another thing that stood out....
Morrigan had been the hardest on the twins and Eara---the bards of the group, although technically Piper could've been considered. Once she knocked Badb from the arena, and Thom's music stopped stealing her breath, she had to take out Eara next.
After all, Fir and the others were illusionists, not spellcasters. Once she had the bards under control, binding all of their magick was a piece of cake.
"Leaves!" she declared suddenly as they reached the Tree. "Get them! Lots! Healing! Helps!! Leaves, leaves!" she insisted.
Eara was chock full of information about their new allies and enemies. For her frailty, she certainly made up for it in what she could offer in the means of new intelligence.

(Probably.)

Kazuhiko's eyes widened. "I dunno..." he bawled again. "DAAAAA!! Daaaaa!?!!"
The boy was inconsolable now.

Eara sighed deeply with relief at the sight.
Unfortunately, Morrigan was starting to wake up. She was a bit groggy, but her surprise and sudden growling made everyone well aware of what was going on.
"W...where...?" she asked softly, before realizing that she didn't know anyone here. "ALED?!!! ALED!!!" she shouted, thrashing and seething in pain. "ALED!!!"
"Antidote." Eara murmured. "She needs it... Hi Bubbles, hi Patch." she barely managed a smile.
Eara was an absolute mess. Morrigan would survive, no doubt about it since the iron toxins weren't an issue.
But to see what the more petite one had wrought on the taller... to see the violent hatred in her eyes, to feel the power that was already swelling from the woman...
Fir was right. Aled had hit her pretty hard with the toxins if she considered all her former allies unknown enemies, even her sister.
"Let me go!!!" she hissed, quickly working at undoing the belt so she could escape. "I swear I'll rip you limb from limb!!"

Kazuhiko shook his head rapidly. "He, he, he took them from me!!" he wailed, clinging to Ainsu tightly. "Mum, Mum, Mum didn't, didn't even remember me...." he choked out, "And, and now Da won't come back... Something's wrong!" he sobbed, "They're not coming home!"

Kazuhiko kept shaking his head. "Mum doesn't even remember me!" he sniffled, and the look on his face was utterly heartbreaking. "I... I don't have my power... and, and Da isn't coming back... He'd be here by now!" he began to cry anew. "Mum listens to Grandpapa now.... she HATES Grandpapa! HATES him! She tried to kill him, now she's trying to kill US!"
The boy was utterly depressed. "They're never coming back... They hate me now..."
