Collithia:The Dark Nymph

With precision aiming, I released my bow onto an unsuspecting boar. I was sure I hit my target...that was until I heard a scream
I stood still with shock written on my face
I shot her
I had shot a nymph
with haste, I ran over to her and addressed her wounds
She was bleeding profusley. It had gone straight through and was still lodged in her torso, her blood being almost as deep a red as her hair.

I couldn't let her die.
I had to,
I had to take her home and help her.

I carefully picked her up and ran as fast as possible to my cottage.
The lanterns were out so I quietley snuck in and ran up the steps to my chambers.
After setting her on my bed, I ran to get some cloth and alchohol.
I snapped the end of the arrow and pulled the sharp end out of her back.
She had milky white skin that was beginning to take on a blue-ish hue.

I poured some alchohol on her entry and exit wound.
I then lit a fire and started heating up my bow knife.
Once it was bright orange I pinched her entry wound and then applied pressure with the knife,
doing the same with her exit wound.
After wrapping her torso with the cloth I collapsed into my armchair.

She was quite a beauty
red flaming locks and freckles sprinkled here and there, even on her shoulders.
She was steadily breathing with fluttering eyeslids|
No
*sigh*

She'll be okay

I awoke with a start.
I must have fallen asleep.
The bed was empty with sheets thrown across the room.

Jumping up, I was quick to check the entire house.
she was gone.
she had left the door wide open letting the cold creep in.

I have to find her, I have to see if shes okay.....
