The little spurt of life I had died as soon as I attempted to climb on Rhys. Attempted. It didn't surprise me Xaden caught me as soon as I feel back, of course he was watching me.  " Easy easy.." He says quietly tucking me into his chest. " You know your supposed to run up his leg not down."


" Funny..." I mumble trying to to wince on how I was positioned, his arms touching where Varrish kicked me at some point and Nolan didn't have enough power to heal. With the connection Xaden knows taking it upon himself to seat me with him for the ride readjusting me to where I was comfortable.


Rhys, Andarna or Segyl didn't fight on who I was I was riding on, though I feel their mutual worry as Xaden leads the group. All the marked ones on the outside herding us to our long flight to Aretia.


He sits me against him, " Comfortable enough?" 


I nod feeling the effects and weakness makign him grip around my waist a little tighter. " Take it easy." He says aloud to Segyl. She looks back blinking in response, Rhys and Andarna... It feels good to have her again on either side of us.


She's...huge. Not as big as the other dragons but certainly bigger then her golden form. I wonder if all dragons start gold then shed their scales...or did they say it was because she stopped the time? 


It hurts to much to even think at the moment. 


" You should try to rest. it'll be a long flight." Xaden whispers in my ear pulling me just a little closer as we fly. He didn't need to tell me twice though it was a little uncomfortable considering it was on a dragon..


Though with the exhaustion and my body knowing I was safe it finally relaxed, drifting into I semi content sleep.  I feel Xaden's thumb continuously run small circles in my side, occasionally pulling me tighter. Maybe he doesn't believe yet I'm really still here. Malek... I don't fully believe it either, praying I don't get pulled out of this and back into Varrish's grasp.


I lean closer to him as well, relishing for several hours I can just be with him. Not having to worry about time, or him or I having to leave the next morning going back to base of Basgiath. I have him again... At least for now.


We can't go back there. Nor can he go back to his post...We're officially in this. 


" Just rest." He repeats quietly, must've felt me awaken or something. " We'll be there soon. Your feeling alright?"


I merely hum. " Everything hurts but.. I'll survive."


He's obviously not convinced as he shifts me a little urging I sleep once more, getting quite antsy when I try but can't seeing my body was decising to hurt more and with the higher winds it was a little rougher ride though I know Segyl was trying to be as careful as possible.
