I was awake earlier than normal thanks to the pain emanating from my wound. I slowly got up out of bed and hobbled to my wardrobe grabbing my bath supplies. I felt all dirty and nasty from not bathing after our mission. There was even some dried blood left down my side. I made my way out of my room and down the hall when I started feeling woozy. I leaned against the wall keeping myself standing than continued to walk towards the baths. As I rounded the corner I saw Yami walking towards me. "What the hell are you doing?" He stood over me with his arms crossed. "You look like hell."
I looked up smiling like a jackass. "That's not a nice thing to say to a lady."
His aura got more menacing making me shudder. "You're supposed to be resting. Where do you think you're going?"
"I- I was going to clean myself up. I'm pretty nasty from the mission."
"You can barely move dumbass. Why didn't you ask someone for help?"
My face got bright red. "Y- Yami I d-don't think." I stumbled over my words all flustered.
He pinched the bridge of his nose. "Not me flame for brains." He sighed. "I'll go get Vanessa or Charmy." He walked by me. "Don't move."
After he was out of my sight I continued making my way towards the baths. As I hobbled down the stairs I tripped and couldn't catch myself. I closed my eyes while putting my arm out to brace myself when I felt myself hit something fluffy. I looked up to see Charmy coming up the stairs with her grimoire out. She stopped and put her hands on her hips. "Scarlet! You could have hurt yourself worse!"
I chuckled nervously. "Sorry, I just want to get this over with so I can eat and lay down."
She moved the cloud of cotton along behind her the rest of the way to the baths. "I can understand if it's for food, but you need to be careful."
Charmy stayed with me as I cleaned up my wounds, trying to be careful that I didn't make them bleed again. She helped me wrap my stomach while she talked about some of her favorite recipes since I asked trying to make conversation. I couldn't be bothered to put on another sports bra so I just threw on Magna's shirt since I still had it and a new pair of black shorts. I decided to wear my comfy black thigh high stockings as well since I'd be lounging around all day. Charmy used her magic to carry me back to my room. I thanked her for her help as she used her magic to place me on my bed then left the room to fetch me some food.
I laid my head back in my pillow letting out a heavy sigh when all of a sudden the door opened. I looked up to see Manga with his arms crossed in the doorway. His hair wasn't standing up in its normal mohawk style. "You're hopeless ya know."
"Yeah I know, I've been lectured twice already. I just don't like being helpless ok?" I covered my face with my other pillow.
"No, it's not ok." He walked over and picked me up bridal style. "Obviously you can't be left alone to heal."
"Unhand me peasant!" I yelled jokingly at him lightly hitting him with the pillow in my hand until I dropped it.
"No can do your highness. I need to make sure you heal properly."
"Help! I'm being kidnapped! Someone save me!" I called out dramatically as we got out the door. Right on the other side was Yami with his arms crossed looking menacing again. I clung to Magna. "Nevermind, Magna save me."
Yami took the cigarette out of his mouth and blew the smoke to the side. "Thank you Magna. Although I'm counting on a dumbass to take care of a dumbass." He let out a deep laugh. "Well I need you to heal up sooner than later. Magna told me about you not being able to sense people's mana. So, I'm going to teach you to sense people's ki."
