The energy exerted thus far on the construction of the shelter having been more then she had been anticipating. Ayana was pleased and relieved to have finally been given permission to go eat. After her encounter with Kumi earlier, she had been craving even the tiniest morsel of fish that she could get her paws on. Totally unaware that she could have had a bite earlier if she hadn’t so frantically ran off before Kumi could answer her. [h1][/h1] A lot of work still had to be done to truly finish the shelter, but it was a start at the very least. Ayana wasn’t about to question Haruko, not with food being the prize as her stomach was growling. “An interview? I see, what kind of job is he interviewing for? well ….I hope you get the job Fujita, best of luck!” turning to run off as fast as she could towards the nearest source of food. [color=f7941d]“I’ll grab some for the others, but no promises that I can resist taking a few nibbles while I bring it to them!”[/color] she called out as she swiftly reached Kumi and the fish. [h1][/h1] Being quite satisfied that Kumi had been thoughtful enough to set aside Ayana, one of the bigger fish. Her big blue eyes filled with joy as she brought it up to her lips and began to gnaw away. Like a cat with a fresh catch, she held the fish in place with her mouth chomping down on it as she gathered up a few other fish to bring to the boys. Voice muffled by her prized fish, she tried to thank Kumi before she headed off to bring Asashi, Masato and Duncan some fish to enjoy. [h1][/h1] Right as she reached them, she came to an abrupt halt as her eyes came upon Duncan. Her sapphire gaze locked right onto the alarming but confusing events unfolding right before her eyes. Eyes widening in shock, it nearly made her drop her fish right out of her mouth. Shock settling in as she brought up a fish filled hand pointing in alarm at Duncan’s stomach. [color=f7941d]“I dun’t thunk itz s’pose to bee guld!!!!!” [/color]Was her first exclamation muffled by a mouth full of fish. Her initial concern about his blood being gold, and not the fact that his stomach had burst open. [h1][/h1] Tossing the fish she had gathered up for the trio of boys towards Asashi and Masato as she rushed over to Duncan.[color=f7941d]"Fizzh fur yu twooo!"[/color]Not waiting for either of them to act, as she went straight in to help Duncan without hesitation. Coming to a sliding stop by his side as she kneeled down beside him. Only to realize that something was not quite right beyond the fact that he was bleeding golden blood. The grass around him was growing up and into his open wound, his golden blood absorbed by its roots as if the grass had obtained a mind of its own. [h1][/h1] Ayana wasn’t quite sure what to do initially, as she took her hands and tried to grab at the tendrils of grass as they snaked into his wound. Trying to pull them away from his body, finally letting the half eaten fish fall from her lips as her concentration shifted to helping Duncan. [color=f7941d]“I’m no doctor, but I don’t think that's supposed to happen….I’ll try to stop the bleeding…..but this grass, its like its trying to consume you at the same time”[/color] a serious concentration being evident in her sapphire eyes. Which replaced the usual aloofness which was her primary state. [h1][/h1] Taking both of her hands as she tried to press them against the open wound to staunch the blood. She knew she needed something more to try to stem the flow, reaching down and she ripped free a piece of cloth from her skirt as she balled it up and tried to jam it in his wound. Though she had zero medical experience, she had seen enough television and action movies to know that cloth could help soak up some of the blood. Her hands now being covered in his golden essence, its warmth feeling surprisingly pleasant against her skin. Like their was life emitting from its very existence. [color=f7941d]"Try to hold on, I'll do as much as I can to make it stop, but these plants are not making it easy...."[/color] concern and determination in her voice as she tried her best.
