She felt cold and lost in her own body she didn't know what was going on she didn't know if she was going to be fine. She felt foreign and afraid. She was blacked out for some time and when she came around she was in this strange mans arms who he was she didn't know but somehow she felt safe and at peace there. She was ready to dose out again when he felt a sharp pain slap her back into reality a rude awakening for such a peaceful moment.

She grunted and groaned the pain hot and searing. Everything suddenly played back and whirled in her head as if someone rewound her memories in front of her eyes. What was she? What had she just done? She had so many questions she was dying to know another that was added to her list she had been mentally scoring and after these ones were added she felt like she was losing hope and all reality of herself. She was fragile and foreign in her own body. She needed someone to save her now.

He set her down when he felt he was at a safe enough distance to, the adrenaline had passed now and his head was clearing only to bring on  more concerning questions. Like what the hell had just happened back there? Who was she and better yet what WAS she? He looked at her as she squirmed throwing her bag down next to her. “I don’t know who you are what you are but are you out of your fucking mind!? Do you even know who that fucking is kid !?" Mika finally let out no longer able to keep it bottled up inside. So many emotions were boiling threw him. And her response was simple just a short burst of laughter. And a snarky comment. “I was hoping you could tell me that..." she said sarcastically threw pain which made it her sound more bitter than anything.

He wanted to get mad at her but somehow her words softened him after realizing it wasn't sarcasm or bitterness that he was hearing it was more of a fragile like uncertainty. Oh god what had he got himself into now he'd swore to himself no more of this craziness or wild women thing but with how this one whirled into his life in a split second and made such an impact he was hooked on her like a bad drug. Listen to yourself Mika your losing it man wake up and get a hold of yourself except he couldn't he was sleeping nor was he ever really awake until today until this girl just  blew right into his life like stumbling onto some lost kitten. Well that's if that kitten was suddenly hurled into your lap miraculously that is.

She rolled over to her side and grabbed her bag pulling out from it a small medical kit, from it she grabbed some guaze a piece of sharpened wood and some antiseptic ointment. "Turn around..." she winced out while pulling her shirt up part way. Mika blushed a bit" No let me help you with that " he said, concern very much in his voice. She fought the urge to chew him out and refuse but right now she was to weak to do anything so she handed over the items to him and suffered for the time being. Taking the gauze he rolled some pieces out using the wooden knife to cut it off.

" So what's your name?" he asked as he wiped her clean with some alcohol and a torn piece of fabric from the kit." If I knew that i would of said already but I don't so your screwed." she said with and edginess. " Well then whats up the your necklace ? What's the story behind the whole thing? Why Does it say Salvation?" she sighed irritated now " Look if i knew any of that im quite sure i would ahve informed you on it a while ago but for now like i said before your screwed." she spat out as he applied some of the ointment and wrapped the gauze strips around running his hands over to even them out and for the briefest moment he could feel the silkiness of her skin run over his palm, he finished and tied off the bandaging.

" Well then how about we just call you Salvia. Sorta short for your necklace there, salvation." he suggested as he wiped off his hands. She pulled her shirt and was just about to chew him a new one when she thought about it and responded. " That's actualy not such a bad idea but i realy don't need your.." he cut her off " Look kid you need my help more than you will ever know so your stuck with me however much you love or hate it so lets just move on and go to the next town and get things to set up camp." he said standing and walking back towards town.

" My names Mika , nice to meet you Salvia." she sighed gathering her stuff " My names Not Salvia so don't get to used to call me that alright." she said passing him by and walking ahead of him. " Well to bad because that's the only you have to go bye."he quickly retorted and she grunted her disapproval but he was right there was nothing so she guessed this was sorta a new start.
