She saw nothing. Yet she saw almost everything. She felt the vibrations in the earth, which went into her body, telling her where what was. She avoided all the people, and didn't hear the yells at her. She didn't hear the birds sing, or the people yelling when she smacked into the wall. She groaned, and held her pulsating head.
God dangit!
She thought, not hearing everyone laugh. She sighed in her mind, and still holding her head, continued.
Deaf, blind...why am I this way? I don't know what I look like, or a man looks like. I can't hear the birds, I can't sing with them. Why me? Why, why me?

A man laid on a bench nearby, spralled and saddened. He did it, for once in his life, he left a wife. It didn't feel right anymore.
But the heartache sure does.
Shut up... Ryhe grumbled in his mind at the voice. He rolled over and looked at the woman holding her head. He sat up and watched her.

Zye moaned again, then felt blood coming out of her nose. She felt her dress, then cursed outloud, though she didn't know it.
"Dammit! Why are all these things happening to me!?"
She sighed, her anger going for the moment, and she felt the vibrations once more. This time, she followed the crowd's path, hoping to find a lake where she could wash her only dress in.

His ear perked and he stood. His ear lowered a bit, Donna you dare... remember last time you go involved with a woman? Screw it and Ryhe ran after her.

Zye felt Ryhe's vibrations, and she stopped.
He's chasing after you...
She thought, and then she began to run. Her heart was pounding as she weaved through, wondering why he wanted her.
He should know already that I'm blind! Didn't he see me plow into the wall?

He stopped and clenched his fists. His face wrinkled a bit and he ran after her.

Zye swirved left, and hit another wall. She ground, but noticed there was a spot she could slide in. She got to her knees and pulled herself through the wall. She got up the run again, then smacked into a tree.
Great. I'm in the forest now.
She got up, and touched her nose. She pulled away in pain, and grimaced.
Ah, damn it all. Broken...

Ryhe stopped and snarled, then he ran around the wall and looked for her.

Zye fell backwards onto the ground, holding her nose gently with the neck part of her dress. She was grimacing, her face writhing with pain. She moved herself hunched in a kneeling position, still holding her nose.

He took gentle steps to her and stopped a foot from her. Not knowing she was deaf, he askeed, "Are you alright? I just wanna help ya."

Zye kept facing the ground.
I'm fine, thank you very much! Now, If you'd just let me be! I'd prefer to suffer my own misfortunes alone, thank you. And yes, one of them is hitting walls and trees. Hooray for me.

"Hey hey, no need to be snippy. At least let me help you to a healer for yer nose." he put his hands on his hips.

I'm FINE!
Zye thought angrily, pulling her now-sticky dress away from her nose to check if it was still bleeding. She growled, and put it back on, sulking silently.

"Please, let me help." he took a step to her.

I told you already. I'm fine! I lived this way for over a hundred years, so I can keep doing it now!
She still kneeled in pain, however, waiting for the blood to stop on her dress.

"A broken nose is no use to ya. All I ask is to help ya to a healer, then I leave ya alone. promise." he looked concern.

Zye growled again, and sighed.
I promise I'll be fine, alright? I've broken my nose many times. Curse my blindness...
She held onto her nose tighter, and grimaced in pain again.

"Yeah, well, I'm offering to help. You can run into trees for the rest of the day or let me help you." his concerned look went into a mad face.

Zye sighed.
Just go get bandages or something...I'll wrap my nose up myself.
She sighed again, knowing she was fighting a losing battle.

"No, I wanna take ya to a professional." he smiled lightly.

How many times do I have to say it? I'm fine! Besides, I don't want to go! My dress is full of blood, and it's pressing against my body. You probably know what else. So I'm fine kneeling here. No worries on me...

Ryhe sighed and took off his shirt. He tore off some strips and placed them her hand, his rough, callased hand gently touched her's and held it there so she felt the cloth.

Zye smiled to herself, and took the clothes, wrapping her nose up expertly.
Thanks...
She said, using another cloth strip to make it tighter.

He watched and sighed. He tore off the sleeves so the shirt was still wearable. He slipped it on and wtched her.

Zye kept tieing more strips on her nose, making them tighter and tighter. When she used the last strip, her hand searched the ground for one. When she didn't find one, she stood up. She noticed her dress sticking to her, and she turned away from Ryhe, blushing.
Thanks...again...
