"Just do it fast then..." Ky muttered and the sealing began to fade away, cleansing some of the blood with holy water as it melted. The table was still on, glowing away in the dark.

Angela looked over her shoulder, watching Aku.
Des just sighed and watched as well. He hoped this was worth the price paid.

Without even a hint of hesitation, Akutenshi immediately dove into the healing. With a flick of his wrist, Zen began to glow, as well as Akutenshi. He traced out symbols in the air above his chest with his finger, and everywhere his finger went, a red line followed. The symbols were most certainly fiendish and a bit archaic, but they got the job done.
Akutenshi didn't notice anything else in the room, concentrating completely on Zen. His magical went straight from low-class to one of the highest, and was radiating from him in a blaze. His eyes, now the color of red, darted back and forth as he worked, pouring power and energy into each and every single piece he traced out.
All of the sudden he stopped and took a step back, running a hand through his hair. One could see beads of sweat adorning his countenance. The symbols still hung above Zen, completely still.
"I suggest you all leave the room, unless you want to feel unmeasurable amounts of pain," he said, his voice cracking slightly. It was obvious just this alone had worn him down so much already. "And someone drag Toshi along with you, otherwise he won't leave."

"Trick us and harm Zen, and I'll feed you to Atra." Ky told Aku, and then hesitantly went out into the main hall and into one of the ancient classrooms at the other side of the floor.
Asaiyo waited, looking to Des, "shall we be the ones to do the dragging?"

"I'm ready when you are," Des said. He grabbed one of Toshi's arms and started dragging.
**
Angela bit her lip, not heading for the door just yet. "Will you have enough energy to heal him?" The white haired man looked a bit spent and she wasn't sure how close he was to being finished. "And will you be alright as well?"
There was no point in ending up with another half dead person after healing the current half dead person.

Asaiyo began dragging the other side of Toshi using his shoulder instead.

Toshi nearly snapped at Akutenshi when he was suddenly dragged out of the room. He cursed under his breath and struggled to get free, but it proved pointless. "I do not need to be dragged around like some puppy!" he snapped at both his captors.
Akutenshi didn't so much as bat an eye at Ky's accusations, watching the two men dragging Toshi off. Somehow, he looked relieved. When Angela approached him, though, he frowned. "If I said I can do it, then I can do it," he muttered, leaning back against something for support. "I'll be fine, more or less. Get out of here. It's taking up precious energy just holding that in place." He motioned to the stationary symbols above Zen half-heartedly.

"People fail at upholding their word all the time," Angela said, turning away. She started out and looked back. "It's not going to be much good if someone has to heal you after this is over, you know."
She headed out of the room.
**
"Just be quiet and act like a good little boy," Des said, only releasing Toshi when they were well clear of the room.
**
Angela glared at Des, shoving him aside and standing between him and Toshi. "Or perhaps you could just stop manhandling people today," she told him angrily..

Toshi crossed his arms with a huff, glaring in Des' direction. "You did not have to drag me. If you had simply showed me the way, I would have followed along just fine."
____________________
"Yeah, yeah," Akutenshi muttered under his breath. Making sure everyone had left and was a safe distance away, Akutenshi held up a hand shakily and snapped his fingers. As soon as he did, a large burst of power erupted. Not only that but a scream, which sounded much like Akutenshi, as well, and a rather loud, painful one at that.
((Zen is now completely healed. ^^ Aku is sitting against a wall, all tired-like. ^^))

"Sorry." The Prince let go awkwardly, but ran back at the screaming. Ky darted ahead of him.
She saw the fiend out of breath against one of the painted walls.

((Is Zen healed but unconscious?))
Angela bolted back into the room after Asaiyo and Ky.
"Check Zen," was what she told Ky only because she didn't currently trust her emotions. Instead, she went to Akutenshi and knelt beside him. "Are you alright?" she asked with concern.
**
Des followed the others more slowly pausing in the door to watch.

((I dunno, ask Zen on that one.))
Akutenshi stared down at the floor beneath him, trying to catch his breath. His head was hung low, so no one could see the blood dripping down from his forehead, but they would be able to see the small pool of blood it was creating on the floor. He didn't so much as look up at Angela, still attempting to catch his breath. "********," was all he could manage to say.
((I like how everyone forgot about Toshi. XD))
Toshi managed to make his way back to the room, following the voices. He stood in the doorway as well, stopping when he brushed against Des slightly. "Idiot."

((He's your character, silly!))
"You're bleeding," Angela stated. She put her fingers under his chin and raised his head so she could see exactly where he was bleeding from and why. "I told you not to over do it," she muttered.
**
Des sighed and said nothing, not wanting to get into an insult contest with Toshi. Instead, he walked straight to the table where Zen was and looked down at the other red head to see if Akutenshi had actually healed him.
"Zen?" he asked softly, poking his arm. "You alive?"
The bleeding seemed to have stopped. That was a good thing, he assumed.

((XD;; That idiot was meant for Aku, not Des, but I guess this works, too.))
There was the same symbol Toshi had used to summon him engraved into the middle of his forehead. Akutenshi didn't bother moving, but said, "I didn't over do it. The payment wasn't enough so they took the rest out of me."
"Which was how much?" Toshi asked from the doorway. He didn't doubt that he'd accomplished healing Zen as promised. If he hadn't fulfilled that duty, Akutenshi would've died instead of ending up injured.
"An eighth, more or less."
