Yzsable was grumbling to himself as he went through the second hoop and then the third to catch up with Krystal. He didn't answer her question right away and he was still simmering some.
"Maybe I feel like it and maybe I know what it's like not to be able to do something... nevermind." Yzie shook his head and pushed his red locks back out of his eyes.

Krystal looked at him confused and continued to run to the next obsticle. She then stopped in front of the lake that they had to cross. It would be easy just to walk around, but there were spikes you would have to pass, so there was no choice, but to find away across. "Hmm..." She then thought about this one. The electric eels would harm her, but she was always good with animals. She then smiled and started to sing a song. The eels stopped swimming and looked up at her. Krystal then began to walk through the water and continued to sing. The eels moved to one side and continued looking at her. As soon as she made it across, she stopped singing, and the eels started to swim again and began to spread out.

Yzie wasn't too impressed with Krystal's ability with animals. He hated water and there had to be at least one water obsticle. But he had a plan. It was the same one he used almost every time faced a problem with water. He would just run across it... after saying a quick spell.
"Kis'kae." He said and took one ginger step onto the water. Yzie looked visibly relieved before running across the water and almost into Krystal. He had to jump over her to avoid her. He landed awkwardly, twisting his ankle. Yzsable started swearing again and pulled his foot up to his hip so that he could look at it. It wasn't broken, good. It was sprained badly, not good. Yzie sighed and, murmuring softly, said a spell to heal his ankle. He set it down gingerly.

Krystal wasn't paying attention and she had her eyes closed while she ran. She then plowed right into him and she stumbled across the floor a few times. "OW! What hit me?!" She said and swore that there wasn't anything in front of her the first time.

Yzie yelped, which turned into vehement swearing. He fell. He wrapped his hands around his ankle and squeezed it. The ankle was fine. Yzie stood up, glaring at Krystal.
"Try running with your eyes open next time." He told her coldly, taking a few steps to make sure his ankle was okay. "As a matter of fact, keep your eyes open unless you're sleeping."

Krystal stood up and looked down a little sadly. "Sorry." She felt guilty and didn't know what to say or do. She then said, "You can win the race... if you want. I don't mean to be... so mean to you." She then took off, jogging ahead. She didn't run fast to the next area.
She stopped and noticed metal spikes jabbing up once in a while. They had a timing, so she timed it, before she jumped over. She dodged them and continued on, passing the obsticle. all of a sudden, a spike shot up and drove right through her leg. She let out a scream of pain and falled down. When the spike retracted, she pulled her foot, using her hand. It was badly stabbed and she wasn't able to move. She cried and held onto her leg.
The crowd stood up, staring with wide eyes. They didn't know what to do or say. Low murmuring was happening in the crowd. Jotie quickly stood up and cried out, "KRYSTAL!!!"

( fell is the past tense of fall not falled) Yzie sighed and followed after Krystal. When he came to the spikes, he just melted his way through them. He stopped and knelt down so that he could pick up Krystal more easily. "You're silly. And I'm the one who's sorry. You should be allowed to have fun." He told her as he stood up, holding her in his arms. "Now, about this winning thing. I don't do that too well. You can do that for me. But I think that I'll just cheat." Yzie teleported back to where Lilis was standing with Teague and Jotie. "Oh gods! Quickly, tell me where to set her! She's heavy and she's bleeding all over me!" He said with mock distress and winked at Krystal. Lilis rolled her eyes and Teague chuckled. That was just Yzie for you. He always did like to laugh and he was good for lightening a situation.

The crowd gasped and looked around, wondering where they went. Several of the people that sat on the edge close to King Jotie looked down and spotted them. They watched intently and partly worried if she was going to survive or not.
Jotie quickly got up and looked at her sadly. "Please, agh... S-s-set her down on a bench." He then sighed, trying to calm down. He tried hard to concentrate. He really never wanted his own sister to get hurt.
Krystal found her smile and smiled when Yzie seemed to joke. She groaned when she tried to move her foot. "Dang, it hurts! Can't you use a healing spell, brother?"
Jotie started to tap his forehead with his knuckle. "No no no... Healing spells can only heal so much. And they cannot heal such a wound like that." He sat down. "Get the medics. They know what to do. We need her in best of care. NOW!" He said when he lost it, which suprised Krystal, who never saw her own brother become angry. "Krystal, you shouldn't of been in that race! You could of gotten yourself killed!" He barked at her.
Krystal continued to stare with wide and sorrowful eyes. "Jotie, I-"
"Sorry isn't enough. I cancel this race. Your not allowed to be in the arenas anymore!" He had anger raged through him and he was doing this for her own protection.

Yzie walked over to the indicated bench and set Krystal down. He sat down beside her. Before either Lilis or Teague could move forward to look at the wound, a snow leopard came running up to her. The big cat rubbed its head against her and made these worried, chirruping sounds. It was Intain.
~ Krystal, you're hurt! ~ He cried in distress and rubbed his head against her again. ~ Why did you do something so foolish? What if it hadn't been your foot that got caught? What if you had accidentally impaled yourself on a spike? Then where would we be? We'd have no Krystal to sing us pretty music or make us laugh anymore! ~
Lilis was laughing. She pushed Intain aside some so that she could look at the injury herself. She held the foot gently and handle the injury with care.
"It doesn't look that bad actually. The bone is cracked in a few places, some of the nerves are severed, but her flesh doesn't look mangled. Anyone with pretty good skill as a healer could take care of this." Lilis said and looked back up at Jotie. "You could probably do it, but if you don't want too. I can... or we could all just sit here and wait for a healer to make it. But there is a chance that she could die from bloodloss between now and then."

Krystal lost her smile and looked down at Intain. "I'm sorry. I'm... I'm alright."
Jotie stood up, he walked over to her and murmured a spell. His hands started to glow brightly white and he put his hands around her spiked leg and started to heal her. Soon, all of her flesh was healed and she was alright. "But I can't heal bones." He told them. "She might as well be in a cast for a while. Then she will be alright." He sighed and shook his head, and walked back to sit back down.
Krystal managed to smile. "Thanks." But she didn't get a response. "I can survive a cast. It doesn't bother me any." She looked at Intain and motioned him to come over. "I just want to be with someone now."

Lilis shrugged. "I can heal bone." She said with a wry grin for Jotie. She let her slightly purple fingers slide down Krystal's tibia and fibula, healing them. "You can walk on it, but take it slow. The new growth is still tender. It will take at least a day to harden."
Lilis stood up and backed away. Intain came and sat beside Krystal.

Krystal forced a smile. "Thanks." She looked at Intain and finally, her smile relaxed and she wrapped her arms around his body and hugged him. She brushed her hand on his back and wispered in his ear. "Can I go with you? I don't think I should be around my brother anymore for a while. He seems upset with me." She rubbed her head against his side of his head.
Jotie sighed and walked over to the mechanism and pressed down on the glowing tab, which the arenas dissapeared in the center, now just a bare wasteland. He decided this would be good enough for the next competition. He needed to vent out his anger on someone pretty soon.

Lilis hit Teague and jerked her head in the direction of the door. She hauled Yzie to his feet and pulled him out of the arena. They left and went to find something to occupy themselves with.
Intain put his paw in Krystal's lap. ~ I will go wherever you go Kitten. ~

Krystal stood up and placed Intain's paw on the bench. She then walked down torwards the doorway to test her leg. It felt fine, but a little weak. She looked at Intain and smiled and nodded for him to follow her as she headed out the doorway.

Intain cantered over to her and rubbed against her legs. He looked up at her with wide, kittenish blue eyes. His tail batted against the back of her legs. ~ Where are we going Kitten? ~

Krystal looked down and her heart felt like it began to melt away. "Intain... I can't resist that face of yours." She knelt downwards and gave him a hug. "Aww, I don't know where we are going. I was just planning to go walk to the hidden hotsprings and relax there." She let go of him and stood up with a smile as she crossed her arms. "So, do you want to join?" she asked with a smile.

~ I said I would Kitten. ~ Intain replied with a cat grin. He rubbed his head against Krystal's leg and made a chirruping sound when looked back up at her.

Krystal awed and giggled as she began to walk once again. "Your so cute!" She continued down out of the crowded arenas, where the merchants were now settling in and setting up wares to sell.

~ Thank you Kitten, but you're beautiful. ~ He told her, brushing up against her leg as they walked. ~ Why were you competing in the race? Did you just want some fun? ~
Intain didn't like going into the crowd, but he stayed close to Krystal. He laid his ears back and tried to keep an eye on everyone. He was worried about Krystal and that someone might bump her on accident and make her hurt her leg again. But he was also afraid that someone might come after him for his pelt, no matter who he was with!
~ It's so noisy here. ~ He confided to Krystal, brushing up against her again.

Krystal smiled and blushed. She then shrugged. "Well, ya. I wanted to have a little fun. I didn't know I would slip up. I guess I better find a better race, like running with the horses or something." She giggled and looked at Intain.
She noticed how he was a little frightened. "Oh, Intain. Let's get out of here more quickly." She hastely walked, but slowed down. "Ooh... I can't. My leg begins to hurt if I move too fast." She sighed as she picked up speed again, but walked normally.
Finally, they gotten out of the crowd. It became a little less quiet and they were lucky they didn't run into any fur traders, or else they would be hunting thm down. "Well, no fur traders today. We're lucky no one is after us." She looked at Intain and smiled.

Intain gave a half-grin and batted the back of Krystal's legs with his tail. ~ Parkyr said that she'd let Fire Dancer and Ranger go. So they should be here soon. BreezeBane got a message so she had to leave. ~
Just as Intain finished, Fire Dancer and Ranger crashed through the brush and stopped before them. Ranger lowered his nose down to Intain's and wondered how a cat would ride him. Fire pranced around Krystal for a little bit and then laid his warm horn against her neck.
~ Hello m'lady. It is good to see you again, but Intain said you'd had an accident. I hope you're alright and that you feel better soon. ~ The unicorn said and blew through her hair.

Krystal giggled. "Oh, Fire Dancer. I'm quite alright. It's just a small accident, that's all." She patted his head and walked to his side and swung on. As soon as she was comfortable, she looked down at Intain. "Intain, are you going to walk next to Ranger? Or are you going to have to shift into a human(Elf if I mistooked it) and ride Ranger?"

Post by Kilian on Mar 28, 2006 9:35:30 GMT -5
(mistook, and no, you didn't)
Intain grinned and shook his head. He took a half-form that was similar to Krystal's anthro form except that it wasn't blue and he didn't look like a fox (and he is wearing pants). Intain hopped onto Ranger's back and the horse just stared at him. He hadn't known that some two-leggers and animals had the power to shift. This confused the poor horse greatly. Intain rode up beside Krystal and smiled brightly at her.
"How's this then? I look a little like you now." Intain said to her a little teasingly. He picked up her hand in his and kissed the back of it before setting it back down. "So, where are we going again?"

Krystal stared at him with widen eyes and tried to focus. "I umm... Well. This is a new you." She giggled and knew she blushed. She faced forward and said, "Follow me, it isn't very far away. Although no one knows about it, exept me and my brother, Jotie. Although, he never goes down there ever, so basically I'm the only one who uses it." She didn't look at him when she spoke. Whenever she did, she quickly looked forward and blushed wildly into five different shades, although you can't tell, because of the fur.
She let Fire Dancer move onward and Krystal said, without looking, "Follow me." She kept her eyes focused forward and dared not to look at Intain. (Because she thought he was very beautiful)

Intain chuckled and Ranger followed Fire Dancer. That was the closest he had yet gotten to telling Krystal how much he really did love her.
"What is this place like?" Intain asked her curiously and nudge Ranger up beside her. "Is it going to make me get hot?"
