Chapter 20: Regroup

*Avyanna* 

We waited for them to wake up, and it was close to midnight for them to wake up. 
"Damn," I yawned, so Andy wrapped his arm around me and put his head on top of mine. 
"Let's just put them somewhere safe, an-"
"We found you! Wow," Evelyn said walking to us. Behind her there was this mob of people. 
"Evelyn, you brought more people to the group," I yawned excitedly. 
"We know how to hunt and kill, so will that help you guys?" Ruben popped out from the crowd. 
"I think we should only get fish though," Andy answered, and we all looked at him. 
"Fish? Sir, we have to eat some thing more than just fish," I answered, and he just pouted. 
"Fine, what else should we eat?" he said crossing his arms, waiting for an answer. 
"We brought fruit seeds?" Alan suggested, and I looked at Andy for his opinion. 
"Okay. I'm down," Andy said joyfully, and I chuckled at him.
"We have a stream over there, so we can start planting?" I suggested. 
"Sure," Evelyn said with shrug, and she was right behind me.
"Hold on. We're not using our clean water for that," Andy snapped, and I just face palmed. 
"Andy...they don't need exactly clean water to grow. They just need water," I corrected, and the look on his face made it funny.
"Ooh! Oh okay," he said in a chuckle. We all laughed quietly.
"Hey, we had an attack earlier, so can you guys stay with Andy while I take them to the stream?" I asked the mob, and most of the guys stay with Andy. Evelyn was right next to me, and the stream was clear. 
"It looks clean," Evelyn commented. 
"You can plant anywhere. I just want to show you the water," I said as one of the guys came in running. 
"They came back," he shouted as he panted. Me and Evelyn exchanged looks, and we started running to the direction. I looked everywhere, and luckily, they weren't so many. They finished beaten them up, and I looked at them. 
"Ruben!" Evelyn cried, and Ruben was spilling blood all over the ground. 
"Oh, Ruben," I said looking at his wound. They stabbed him, and I knew if I pulled it out it would hurt. 
"Do you need anything?" Andy asked, and I just needed to think. 
"Check the guys for any sedate-rs, and give me a cup of water," I answered, and they started search. Andy handed me a cup of water, and I settle it right next to him. 
"Why are you going to sedate me?" Ruben asked, and I just shook my head. 
"It's going to be very painful, and it looks like they twisted it. Did they?" I asked, and he nodded. I just had so much sympathy. 
"Why? Why can't you pull it out just like that?" he asked, and I took a deep breath. 
"They stabbed you, and twisted the knife. If I pull it out, I would you cut again. It hurt like a mother believe me," I explained, and he gave me eyes with complete fear. 
"They only had 2," Alan said coming back handing me them.
"Ready?" I asked, and he gave me a stiff nod. Evelyn sat there by his side, holding his hand. I got one, and I insert it near Ruben wound. He groans loudly with so much pain, and then he starts calming down as the shot took action. I slapped him softly, and then a hard one to make sure it was fully set and for the fun of it. I quickly pulled out the knife, and it was pretty big for a regular knife. I quickly poured the water into the wound, and I made it glow for it to heal enough. I had to leave it on for a couple of minutes for it to completely heal. 
"Is he fine?" Evelyn asked while stroking his hair. I nodded. 
"The sedation will take a long time to wear off, so he'll be him safe," I answered, and she stood right by his side the whole time. I walked to Andy, and he was chatting with some guys. I wrapped my hands around him from behind, and I locked my hands together. 
"Hi to you too," Andy said unlocking my hands. He turned his body to face me and let me fall on his embrace. He wrapped his arms around me, and then brought me back up. 
"Aren't they supposed to be up by now?" I asked, and he just shrugged. I yawned as the stars still shined between the spaces of the leaves. A man was still alive, and he just turned over. I locked his hands and feet by using a hard rock cuffs. 
"You need another sedation for them to wake up," he said with a soft scratch voice. 
"What do you mean?" I asked as I bend down on my knees to look at him. 
"The lab has another shot for the sedation serum to get up," he answered, and I picked his head up to look at me. 
"If you can get them for us, I swear I can let you go back good as new," I said making his a deal, and his eyes showed so much thought. 
"Yeah," he answered to make a deal, and I let him out of the rock cuffs. 
"Andy, go get me a cup of water from the stream. Make it fast," I said as I flip the guy over. Andy teleported there and back.
"Here," Andy handed the cup to me, and I applied the water on his wounds. I healed him, and then he was all better. 
"Bring us the serum by the day after tomorrow or your wound will get worse," I threatened, and he ran into the city. 
"What did you do?" Andy asked, and I just smirked. 
"The stream water isn't clean, so he has little pebbles inside him. I can turned them into spikes, and cause him internal bleeding," I answered, and he just looked confused. "I can kill him from inside," I summarized, and then he understood. 
"So what happens if the sedation stay too long?" Evelyn asked, and me and Andy looked at each other. 
"I don't know," I answered, and it put them her in worry. 
"Can you heal him out of it or something?" she asked, and I shook my head. 
"The brain is awaken when it feels like it needs to be awaken,'' I answered, and she just looked away. 
"Thanks for healing him though," she said seeing his cut, and it just left a thin line as a scar. I just looked at him peacefully, and then I saw the others. I started thinking of it.
"Where is Professor Charles?" I asked, and we looked around. He was no where to be found. I saw Ben move, and I looked at him closely. He moved again.
"He is not even near the tents," Andy informed, and I just pointed at Ben. He was sedated during the attack, and he started moving. I quickly and quietly rushed towards him. I check for a pulse, and it was going.
"Check Ruben's pulse," I demanded, and Evelyn quickly moved. She shook her head, and then I just had to think of it.
"What's wrong?" Andy asked, and I just hit my fist in anger.
"He tricked us. Of course, you can't remove the sedation. It's there and it wears off," I muttered, and I just face palmed myself.
"How can you tell?" Evelyn asked, and I looked at Ben opening his eyes.
"Ben pulse started after within 7 hours or a little less. Which means it wears off," I explained, and Andy came at the other side of Ben. Everyone else started waking up and moving, so I looked at Evelyn.
"We have to keep him secure," I answered as I picked his legs up. 
"Let's just let him rest in the tent," Evelyn suggested, and I gave stink face. 
"It's too far," I whine, and she rolled her eyes playfully. 
"Andy. Alan, can you guys help us by putting Ruben in the tent?" Evelyn asked nicely. 
"Of course," they said in a unison. 
"Teleport or speed?" Alan asked, and Andy shrugged. 
"Which ever," Andy answered, and he chose speed. Andy came back all dizzy, and he was flickering his eyes as he was tried to hold his balance. 
"Wow, hold on buddy," I chuckled as I went to be right by his side, so he could hold himself on me.
