The Mystic Seven

Rufus

Patience and Rufus stand around Makoto while Rigel and Lucy sit by her side. They think about what they are going to do to help Makoto but they don't have any ideas.

"Any ideas on how to help Makoto?" Said Rigel.

"Sorry but, I have none right now."

"We need a little more time to think about it." Said Patience.

"We don't have time to wait, we only have 2 and a half days left before the poison kills her." Said Rigel.

"Yes but that's still enough time to figure out how to help her."

"We need to help her now, can't you see she's in so much pain right now." Said Rigel.

"Rigel you need to calm down we will figure something out." Said Lucy.

"Don't tell me to calm down, she's in pain and you expect me to stay calm." Said Rigel.

"Right now you need to take care of your own injuries." Said Lucy.

"I don't care about my injuries I just want to help Makoto." Said Rigel.

"Come on Rigel I'll treat your injuries a little." Said Lucy.

"No, I'm staying right here." Said Rigel.

Lucy tries to pull Rigel away but he puts his dagger against her throat.

"Rigel you need to calm down."

"Yeah, it will be ok Rigel. It's just for a second." Said Patience.

"Patience, Rufus, watch after Makoto for the next couple minutes while we're gone." Said Lucy.

"We can do that."

"I said I'm not leaving Makotos side, I promised her that." Said Rigel.

"I know but, I have to tend to your injuries so if you would kindly remove your dagger from my neck because your only gonna get yourself hurt." Said Lucy.

Rigel gives in and puts his dagger away.

"I'm sorry, I just worried about her." Said Rigel.

"I understand that, we are all worried about her but we just need to stay calm and think, now let's go so I can tend to your injuries." Said Lucy.

Lucy goes to pick Rigel up but, punches him in the stomach first.

"Ow, that hurt." Said Rigel.

"That's what you get for putting a dagger against my throat." Said Lucy.

"That's fair." Said Rigel.

Lucy takes Rigel over to one of the broken buildings of the kingdom to tend to his wounds.

"Those three are quite the handful."

"Yeah, but I'm interested in what will happen between them in the future." Said Patience.

"Whatever happens we'll stick by their sides."

Rigel and Patience look at Makoto who is currently sleeping.

"I wonder how she can sleep through that pain she's feeling."

"She's a strong girl she's giving it everything she's got to survive the poison." Said Patience.

"Yeah, and it's hitting Rigel pretty hard."

"Yeah, they've known each other for a while so I understand how he's feeling." Said Patience.

"Hopefully Makoto pulls through and survives."

"Yeah, but we'll need to find some sort of cure for her." Said Patience.
