I hear a distant scream that wakes me up. Slowly I open my eyes. "Thank the Spirits your awake." I breazed with realif. "You need to go back to sleep. After all you need rest..." I said, comming close to him, to check his wounds. "I tried the best I could, but I'm still only learning, Here, i'll take the cloth, I'll just wash it in cool water and be back. OK?" I asked, taking some of the dressing off of his wounds. "You just rest. Don't worry about a thing. Um...Are you cold?" I asked remmembering that we sill didn't have a fire. "And If you don't mind me asking. What is your name?"

At the end of the world Or the last thing I see You are Never coming home Never coming home Could I? should I? And all the things that you never ever told me And all the smiles that are ever gonna haunt me Never coming home Never coming home Could I? Should I? And all the wounds that are ever gonna scar me For all the ghosts that are never gonna catch me.
I shake my head, still frightened. Sleep is the last thing I want right now. I hug my arms to my chest, not saying anything for a while until I could regain myself. The fear gleams in my eyes, an emotion that I do not show often.
' I'm fine. No, I'm not cold, and sleep... ' I say with a sigh, 'Sleep will only make it worse.'
I remain still for a while, until there is a short breeze over my bare chest. A short shiver runs through me. I speak a few short words under my breath, and a fire starts from shadow, becoming a typical fire in a matter of seconds.
' My name is Kazeiel-' I pause, hoping hasitly that I can over my mistake.
[/b] 'Kaze. My name is Kaze. '[/b] [/right] Get the feeling that you're never All alone and I remember now At the top of my lungs in my arms she dies She dies

I jumped a bit at the sight of the fire. "That works..." I extend my hand to the stranger. "Nice to meet you Kaze, Don't know if you remmember or not but I'm Kalia. Also don't worry, you don't have to be frietened with me, I'm not of those who couses harm unless they must. Anyway, like I said I'll be back in a second." I rand out side and wash the bandaches in the neer by creek and come back. "Will you let me put them back on?" I asked gently.

I nod slightly, still stunned and fairly weak. My mind is slowly coming back into comprehension, slowly gathering details my senses are recieving and translating them. I don't extend my hand, for fear my muscles will stop working.
While Kalia is gone, I lean my head against the wall, my arms relaxing and falling to my sides. I begin to drift off to sleep, though Kalia awakes me before slumber takes me. I pause for a moment to think over her words, but nod slowly, to sore to move much.

I look at Kaze. "You need rest. Here." I take off my cape and make like a pillowish thing out of it. "Lay down, and sleep. You need it." I say and churn my back to him watching the fire. I fear it, yet it facinates me...Memories. Powerful things. I skoot to the wall and lean against it still staring at the fire, my eyes slowly closing with exhastion i drift to a desterbed sleep with nightmares.

I shake my head, leaning against the wall. I wrap my arms around my knees, hugging them to my chest as I pull my thick leather cloak closer. The depths of the fire facinate me as well, and I begin to see familiar faces in it. And slowly, I begin to drift off to sleep, though I catch myself before I do. I lean forward, running my hand through the fire until I am sufficently awake.
I cradle my hand to my chest with a bitter smile on my face. Anything not to sleep, to stay concious as much as possible. The smile fades only with the sun's rising, though it doesn't really matter; the stormclouds block most of the light.

I wake up as soon as one of the sun-bunnies lands on my face. Slowly I open my eyes, and see Kaze awake. "What's wrong?" Something is up with him...But what? What is he not telling? I hated so much when people I met did even more damage to themselves...Deafeats my whole perpouse. "What's wrong?" I ask my hand and gently touch his shoulder in confort.

'It's nothing, ' I say with a weak sigh. Her hand on my shoulder makes me twitch out of impulse to fight back, though I am to sore to do anything. The look of concern on her face makes me smile in what I hope is a convincing way.
'Really. I'm fine. '
I know she probably doesn't believe me, but I can only try. I hide my hand to stop her from seeing what I did to myself to stay awake.

I take my hand away and go outside, making sure he's not looking I kic some gravel, and throw some stones to the distance. Why did It have to be me?! After a couple of minuts of mently screaming in my head I fall to my nees...I will find out what's wrong with him. I get up and go back in. "Some how I don't believe you. But if you don't tell me I can't help you..." I say before I realize what's going on.

I turn my head toward her slightly.
' You can't. There was one person who could have, she's dead now, so what does it matter?'
I feel myself hiss the words before I can think about them. It is the truth, no matter my reluctance to admit it, isn't it? Amazing how little I know myself, isn't it?

"Who's dead?" I asked with concern. Oh, how I hated that word! I felt my self tence up, and tears slowly showing up at my eyes, before he notices them I wipe the tears with my sleeve. "No...with that I can't help...but help you get over it, to live again with that I can." I said still looking anywhere but at him.

'With what you can? '
I ask, raising a thin, black brow. I catch the salty scent of tears, though I say nothing of it.
' And as for living again, I've tried, for near-on a two millenia. '
The mention of my... condition is offhand, something unmeant to be noticed, though I am sure she will. Most people do when I say anything of my age.

"Wow..." I said thinking it over. "Maybe you just need different help..." I suggested. Looks like he suffers as much as me...Possibly even much, much, more worse. "In any case, I feel young..." I said smiling, though my smile was bitter to acompany my thoughts.

I felt myself smile, bitterly of course. I hold my burned hand in front of my face, examining the wounds. There is a faint gleam to my eyes that accompanies pain, though at this distance I doubt she sees it.
'That is not the first time someone has said that, ' I say with a humorless laugh.

I laugh but suddenly see his hand. "What did you do!" I slap my forehead. "Crazy person...Here. Let me help with that..." I get a cool bandage and reach for his hand. I hope he isn't much of a fool...yet again...
