First Feather [Accidental video]

[The Pcd flickers on, though all there is to see is blood dripping from somewhere and concrete. The sound hasn’t quite picked up yet, the video itself a little rough before suddenly the feed is thick with heavy breathing and a pained moan trapped behind grit teeth. This is followed by shoes sliding against gravel, and another soft sound of pain before a teenage boy comes into view of the video, slumped against the wall of a building.
His hands are gripping his left leg where, now that video is coming more into focus, an arrow has gone straight through and lodged itself in his thigh. His clothes look a little worse for wear, his cheek is bleeding, skin is red and raw.]
M-mokona? Where did you take me? I...Where is the princess?
[All in all the building seems to fit the setting he had been in before, but it isn’t the same, its different, and also devoid of strangers. Gritting his teeth again, he pushes himself to stand slowly, ignoring the pain in his leg as he limps. He moves further away from the camera but despite the slow movements he looks frantic, yelling at the top of his lungs in search of someone important to him.]
Princess? Princess!?

Date: 2012-01-17 06:22 am (UTC)Have you seen a girl? She's got light brown hair. And fair skin. Her name is Sakura, its very important...
[Video]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:25 am (UTC)I don't think she's here, sorry.
[Video]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:30 am (UTC)She has to be.
[He's taking his PCD with him and hobbling out into the open.]
The rain stopped...
[Video]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:32 am (UTC)... Is someone coming to heal that for you?
[Video]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:34 am (UTC)I don't think so...
[Video]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:36 am (UTC)But he can't exactly just leave him out there to bleed to death either....]
Press the yellow button on the side of your device. It'll send me your coordinates.

Date: 2012-01-17 06:41 am (UTC)[He looks a little upset that he can't do anything in return, but he presses the button anyways.]
I can manage on my own, if its too much trouble, really...
[Video]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:43 am (UTC)[More like healing magic and a first aid kit, but that'll come in later.]
I'll be there soon. [He really doesn't need anything in return, Syaoran. He's pretty sure you're going to need everything you have anyway.]
[Video]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:49 am (UTC)[He'll sit and wait then. He doesn't want you to go on a wild goose chase for him Riku, that would just make him feel bad.]
[Video -> Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:53 am (UTC)[And he'll be showing up about twenty minutes later, dressed warmly, bag containing first aid supplies and some extra clothes slung over his shoulder.]
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 06:57 am (UTC)You really didn't have to. I could have dealt with it on my own.
[Though it probably would get infected if he had.]
You're very kind though, thank you.
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:00 am (UTC)I told you it's no problem.
[He leaned forward, checking the wound, seeing what he would need to do to heal it. It would be easy once the arrow was removed. But that was going to be the tricky part.]
I'm Riku by the way.
Re: [Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:14 am (UTC)It's a pleasure Riku.
[He glanced up, studying the other boy.]
I'm Syaoran.
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:19 am (UTC)[Opening the bottle of water, he poured a good amount over the wound, cleaning away the blood so he could look at where the arrow penetrated and excited more clearly.]
Mind telling me how this happened?
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:23 am (UTC)I...I was scoping the area of this city we had arrived in. And I was attacked by a group of people in cloaks. They had crossbows.
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:27 am (UTC)Keep talking. It'll hurt less if you focus on something else.
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:31 am (UTC)T-the land was barren, like this city. Acid rained from the sky's a-and the building we came to. It was untouched. Mokona felt a strong power from it. So we went there.
The princess...she...She was unconscious.
[He's totally ready for you to pull the arrow out now Riku.]
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:34 am (UTC)[And he does, the movement quick and sharp, the long, thin piece of wood coming out in, thankfully, one piece. Picking up the guaze he pressed it against the wounds, fully ready for more blood to come spilling fourth, knowing it was best to get it under control instead of wasting his powers trying to heal through it.]
Where else are you burned?
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:38 am (UTC)W-where ever the rain touched me. It isn't so bad...just stings a little.
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:40 am (UTC)Until they get infected.
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:45 am (UTC)You shouldn't waste your medicine on a stranger, Riku. I can manage, really. You've already done enough.
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 07:50 am (UTC)[He lifted the gauze a moment later, lifting the bottle of water and pouring more of the cold liquid over the wound, washing it clean once more.
Replacing the cap and setting it aside he set to work, palm pressing into torn flesh, just enough for the touch to be felt, but not hard enough for the touch to hurt. His eyes slipped closed, the spell whispered under his breath, a bright green glow beginning to emit from his palm a moment later.]
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 08:01 am (UTC)That's quite a skill, Riku...
[He spoke soft, staring with curious amazement.]
[Offline]
Date: 2012-01-17 08:04 am (UTC)[Considering half of the people he knew had some sort of healing ability, or were leaning how to use them. The glow faded slowly, and when he removed his hand it was so show freshly mended skin, with little sign of the previous injury. Moving on to the other, he repeated the process, focusing on the spell for a moment before speaking.]
Anyone tell you about this place yet?
