"You are sick." Seth muttered, and knelt down beside him, refreshing the cloth. "You're at least going to stay here until you can see, if not any longer."

Asher tried to open his eyes. "But that could take days!" He remembered the challenge. "I need to be somewhere." He opened his eyes, and the light hit them and they started to water, he closed them again. "See? I can see perfectly." That was a bold faced lie.

"No you can't." Seth smiled wryly, Asher reminded him of himself when he was younger. "And I think that 'somewhere' has to wait until you can actually see where you're going."

Asher shook his head, his eyes closed. "No, it can't. If I don't go they will hunt me down and do worse things, and they will kill all of you too." He tried opening his eyes again, but he closed them once more. The light was already dim, so it was worse then everyone thought. He was also surprised at what he had said. He had said he didn't want them to die. And his voice had changed as well, for once it did not show hate toward them.

"Kiko...do you know any way to heal Asher's eyes?" Seth asked her softly, looking down at the bandit between them with a trace of a smile.

Kikoto shook her head. "Sorry, no. Eyes are very hard to fix." "WHY FIX SOMETHINGT THAT ISN'T BROKEN!?!?" Asher tried to sit up, but was pushed back down. "Let me go!" It wasn't good for him to be tirering himself out like this, but he didn't know that.

"The more you rest, the faster you'll heal, and the faster you can go." Seth said reasonably, keeping Asher down. "Yes, I've seen your eyes, they water every time you open them. They AREN'T fine."

Asher opened them again, and he fought them from closing, but they were watering. "I can keep them open, can't I?" His vision was getting worse. "You don't know anything about me, so you have no right to keep me here." Asher's eyes finally won and he closed them, his teeth ground together.

"We don't want to keep you here against your will, but once your eyes are better, then we can let you go. We really don't need you walking straight off a cliff." Seth murmured, sighing softly.

Kikoto smiled. Tell me if he needs anything. "Come Ace, I think these two need to bond." She smiled and took Ace outside.
Asher heard the others leave. "Bond? What the fuck is that?"

"I believe it's some female concept that we know nothing about." Seth muttered darkly. "Because I have no idea what on earth she's talking about."

Kikoto poked her head in the door. "GET TO KNOW EACH OTHER! HE IS GOING TO BE AROUND MORE ANYWAYS!" "I AM NOT!!!!"

"It's a female thing." Seth confirmed the matter flatly. He looked at Asher. "If Kikoto says you are, then either she's going to force you to, or Kineta is going to bring you home with her." He muttered to no one in particular.

Asher growled under his breath. "Whatever." He tore off a strip of cloth from his arm and tied it around his head, bloking off light from reaching his eyes. Then he opened them and sat up, only to fall back again. "Why am I so tired?"

"You got beat up pretty bad. If that isn't it, I don't know what is." Seth shrugged slightly.

Asher was now calm. "How bad was it?" He never did notice until now.

"You passed out. There was blood pretty much everywhere, and the cold made it worse." Seth smiled slightly down at him.

Asher grinned. "Oh. It didn't hurt...." He drifted off to sleep.

Kineta scrambled through her window, and shut it behind her. The door to her room was shut, and she announced her presence by running right into it. She opened it, and her breath caught in her throat when she saw Asher. She shot over to him, and slid down on her knees beside him, then looked over at Seth questioningly. He shook his head, and she sighed softly in relief.

Asher opened his eyes. "Kineta?"

Kineta smiled down at him. "It's me...what happened?" She asked softly. You can probably use mindspeak, it'll use less energy.

A small smile came across Ashers face. "Nothing."

Kineta smirked down at him. "There IS something...people don't just appear in that condition from nowhere." She pointed out, then lay beside him.

Asher was already asleep once more.
Aulii sat in the hall at school and groaned. "I HATE LIFE!!!!!"

Zeki emerged from the classroom, and sighed. It was finally lunch. He saw Akili, and darted over, then hugged her. "Hey. What's up?"

Aulii hugged him back. Then looked over when she heard people talk, but stayed in his arms.
Natleah and Ribonde watched. "So you guys going out?!" "I think they are." That was Ribonde. "You guys going steady then?"

Post by ‡§åkørü‡ on Jul 9, 2006 2:04:13 GMT -5
"Does it look like it?" Was Zeki's rather irritable response. Natleah and Ribonde drove him insane with their constant hyperactivity, and what was worse, they talked too much. He just held Aulii close.

Ribonde shrugged. "I don't know. What does it look like Nat?" "I don't know."
Suddenly there was a loud laugh. "HEY! EVERYONE! AULII IS IN LOVE WITH A GEEK!" The whole croud broke out laughing.
Aulii Broke away slightly, still holding onto Zeki's shoulders. "He is not a geek!"

Zeki shrugged. "AND SO WHAT!?" That made them shut up for awhile. He smirked in satisfaction, leaning back against the lockers. He could take on any of the others, he had his father's strength and his mother's brain.

Natleah looked at Ribonde. "He so wants to marry her." "I agree. He does,look at his face!" "Oh yes, it does show that he wants her in bed with him."
Aulii did not hear Natleah and Ribonde. She sat down by Zeki's feet and started eating.
