[center][h1][color=ed145b]Fei[/color][/h1][/center] Clenching her teeth in pain, Fei cursed at herself for being so careless. The pain in her leg was intensifying and the world was beginning to sway. She blinked several times to stay conscious. [Color=cyan]"If you are injured, I suggest you disengage from battle and recuperate."[/color] Chen spoke to Fei as if his words held any importance. To Hell if she’d step away from the battle. There was no way, poison or not, she could possibly give up this mission. Too much was at stake. And then suddenly Jessi was by her side, and part of her grew at ease. [color=ed145b]“I’m fine..”[/color] She mumbled before growing wobbly and relying on Jessi to keep her upright. [color=ed145b][i]Dammit..[/i][/color] Why did everything have to go wrong at the worst possible moment? She had to keep fighting or everything up to then would all be for nothing. Black spots soon filled her vision and it felt like only a matter of moments before she would pass out. For better or for worse, Fei was taken from Jessi’s warm grasp and set under some bushes by their strange cat companion. Taking a deep breath, she waited for Si to pull out some healing potions or special herbs that would get the poison out of her system. Of course things always went in an unexpected way in Fei’s life. Putting her face up to Fei’s leg, Si began to vigorously lick her wound. Fei’s eyes grew in alarm and she would have called out at the damn cat had a feeling of strength not passed through her. The fire within Fei was quickly returning to life and despite hating every aspect of the situation, Si’s soft licks were incredibly pleasing. She closed her eyes as her entire body grew warm and a slight crackle of fire appeared on her head. Not even the boys’ discomfort could ruin the sense of bliss she was feeling. Part of her knew the moment it was all over, she would be mortified, but for now, she didn’t care. Before long, all of the poison killing Fei on the inside was gone and the cut on her leg was no longer present. She felt incredible, like she could take on the entire universe and come out victorious. The fire on Fei’s head grew even more as she clenched her fist for battle. Looking around, she realized both Jessi and Chen had taken the battle floor, without her. “Damn them.” She spoke aloud in annoyance. And then there was Si, the strange cat who always seemed to have the answers. She hesitated before speaking to her. [color=ed145b]“Umm.. thanks…” [/color] And with that, Fei marched forward. It was clear that Chen and Jessi had both split up, Chen with the elves, and Jessi with the soldiers. Both were making quick work of the enemy and didn’t appear to even need her help. But the newly restored magic was beating inside her like a heartbeat, as if begging to be unleashed. There was really no thoughts involved as Fei moved toward Jessi. Pulling out the devilish twin swords, Fei stepped beside him. [color=ed145b]“Need some help?”[/color] She grinned as he was clearly pulling his own weight. As her entire body was still glowing from the warmth of Si’s licks, Fei couldn’t help but immediately jumping into the fray. Sinking her sword into on the soldiers, she used the momentum to kick another one in the face, sending a strong wave of heat with the touch. Looking back at Jessi, a soft smile covered her lips. She didn’t even need to speak to tell him to make sure they both got out of this alive. [@KoL][@floodtalon][@Awesomoman64]
