THE FALL // o, injured & joining??

[Warringkingdoms]

  [font=trebuchet ms]The loud scream, the timbre of which was unfamiliar, steadily growing closer was the first sign that something was off.

  Granted, even if the noise hadn’t tipped Rin off, the falling object’s impact on the surface of Starpool- that sent waves splashing right into her face- would have been proof enough. Sputtering water out of her nose and mouth, she shook her head to get the excess moisture out of her fur, then blinked and focused on the fallen creature. They seemed to be shifting into the form of a wolf, but more importantly, they were covered in cuts and burns, and had almost certainly broken at least a few bones.

  Geddy had beat her to the wounded stranger, but apparently he wasn’t a medical expert either. They would have to make it work, probably. ”We’ll need some bandages, and probably a stick or something for a splint,” she called aloud, flicking an ear. Her scarf wasn’t going to suffice as an impromptu bandage this time. Of course, perhaps Radeken would arrive to take care of this, in which case there would be no issue, but Rin wasn’t quite ready to put stock in that possibility yet.
