The Dragon Knight

Injury

<×><×><×>

(3rd Person POV)

Sekki growls lightly to try to wake up his best friend, but to no avail. He sees no Holy Knights nearby and decides to land in the woods so he could she how bad the injury was. Landing with a bump, he cranes his neck over and grabs the collar of Sheik's clothing. He places her on the ground and continuously nudges her. He sniffs around until he finds the wound. Sekki could already tell that this could be fatal due to the amount of blood lost and that it is still bleeding. His friend needed help, fast. The last place he picked her up calmly was at the bar building. He gingerly holds Sheik in his talons and races off to find the shack. Once he finds it, he leans Sheik against the steps and begins to make noises to attract attention from its inhabitants.

"Shaddap!" a white haired man shouts, opening the door to make the noise stop.

Sekki nudges the man towards Sheik expectantly.

"Sh-Shit, it's a fucking dragon!" he shrieks.

The man races back inside yelling 'Captain!' over and over. Sekki growls, his patience wearing thin. He sticks his head in the door and grabs the closest person. He drops the person on the floor next to Sheik and just stares.

"What did you do that for Ban? Just because I didn't believe that there... was...a d-dragon." a brunette boy stutters.

Sekki nudges Sheik closer towards the boy and whines. The boy continues to look at the dragon until he confirms that no harm would come to him if he touched the body.

"What happened?!" he gasps, gaping at the injury.

Sekki just whines some more and shifts on his feet, not being able to speak the human tongue.

"Guys! Come quick, he's really hurt!" he shouts in the building.

He carries Sheik into the bar and puts her on the wooden floor. A white-haired woman comes over with wet towels and many bandages. She begins taking off Sheik's gear but stops abruptly.

"Lord King, can you leave the room please?" she asks politely.

"Won't you need held bandaging his wounds?" King asks.

"It's a girl." she says matter-of-factly.

The bashful boy was out of the room in seconds, a slight blush adorning his cheeks. The white-haired girl quickly deals with Sheik's wounds, barely breaking a sweat. She then lightly taps Sheik's cheeks, trying to see if she would get a response from the injured girl. With no response, she puts Sheik's clothing back on.

"It's okay now guys!" she calls out.

King was the first to enter, floating above Sheik and investigating her face.

"She's a wanted criminal." he comments.

"Yeah, she's the legendary Dragon Knight." a voice says behind King.

"Are you saying what I think you're saying, Captain?" King asks.

"Depends on what you think I'm saying." Captain jokes.

"So the dragon outside is friendly?" the fox-like man asked.

"I didn't say...too late he's already out there." Captain sighs.

Through the window, the trio watch as the dragon squishes the fox-man's face repeatedly into the ground. After the dragon was finished 'playing' with his toy, he picked it up and tossed it back to the steps of the bar.

Sheik jolts up and awake with a groan.

"Woah, woah, woah! You shouldn't be moving yet. You shouldn't even be awake!" King panics, trying to push the injured woman back down onto the floor.
