Fallen leaned her head on his chest. "Nabias sounds good." Just then, her stomach growled. She laughed. "In more ways than one." She separated herself from Asu a bit reluctantly and went to organize her things. She picked up her canteen and the candy bar that was slightly unwrapped. She broke a piece off and popped it in her mouth. "Want some?" she asked him, holding out the candy bar. She'd feel bad if she didn't offer it; he was probably as hungry as her.

She quickly kicked away the ashy firewood, stomping out the last of any possible blaze. It fell into a small indent, reducing itself further. Brushing her pants off of some stray ash, she turned to him, waiting happily.

Asu nodded as he took a piece of chocolate from Fallen.  He was indeed hungry; the events of the whole day had made him rather hungry, and when Justine had entered the picture, they were getting ready to eat.  As soon as the ash was stomped to estinguish any chances of a stray fire starting, he smiled and shifted into his Lucain form and leapt down fro the ledge, turning to face Fallen and waiting for her.

"It shouldn't be too long of a trip to Nabias.  I might not know anyone that can telelport, but I do know that there is a train not far from here that runs to Nabias." He said.

She smiled; easy trips were nice. Better than running through forest for, what, 2 or so days? She added in a nod with the smile. "I like trains." she stated, and also shifted into her lucain form, her small backpack bulging slightly against her back. She jumped down; as she did, she faltered and collapsed slightly on the ground. She let out a shrill bark, and looked back. Her knee. Of course. She'd forgotten her damaged knee during the small fight, and both luckily and unluckily, she hadn't used that leg to stomp out the fire. She grimaced. "My... stupid... knee." she gasped, panting as she slid into a comfortable sitting position. She lapped at it with her tongue, wondering how she could make it okay. She kept her rasping over her knee, it was soothing it and the rhythm was relaxing. She remembered the crystals, but apparently they only numbed. She rolled her eyes. Of course they would be of little help. But what could she do? She was no where near a doctor, and she had no medical experience, and she was sure that, although Asu might be talented, his medical skills were limited. All she knew was that if it set wrong, it would be bad for her. Could she deal with a lame leg?

She didn't answer her question.

Asu's eyes widened as he, too, remembered Fallen's injured knee.  "This... could be problematic." He said quietly, padding over to her gently.  "What's worse is knowing that there are no doctors around here... but there are plenty in Nabias, I believe." He said, his eyes holding a great deal of concern.  "One thing is certain--we cannot remain here.  You never know when another Akail might appear out of nowhere, looking for an easy meal."

Here, he shifted to his human form.  "How do you think we should go about this?" he asked, sitting cross-legged beside her.

Hmmm... how should she perform this? "I suppose it would be faster to be human- you could help support me if I needed it, though I shouldn't, it's not that bad. I mean, I can sort of walk on it. The jump probably just aggrivated it. I'll be fine." she said. She would not let go of her dignity. She let her body shift again into her human form, her knee paining her more now. The shifts were wearing on her. "If you could just help me up, I think I can make it out. It's not that far." she said, smiling. She hoped to the gods that Asu didn't see through it. The last thing she wanted was for him to worry, after that whole scene. "C'mon, if we want to get out of here quick, we're going to have to move quick." she said, shouldering her backpack into a more comforable place as she stuck her hand up at Asuchiwan.

[SpringsSong]

Asu nodded as he helped Fallen up slowly.  He didn't want her to get hurt any more than she already was, and he could tell that that was a decent amount.  He looked around warily and said, "Okay... this way is the way out." He pointed to the tunnel from which they had come before; hopefully they could make it out with no problems...
