Snippet #2457165

Shina waited for a response, which to her surprise actually did come, but a lot more desperate than she had anticipated. A wail like cry, "H-here!" came from down the street. Turning around, she saw a flash of blue hair. The boy from the store? Why was he over there? She was just going to call out if he was okay, but something about the way he was moving and how his yell sounded had her running down the street to check on him. What she saw had her stomach turning. The boy had blood seeping through his clothing, and on top of that, he looked like he was freezing. She carefully approached him, trying to get a look at the wound before looking at him.

"You're the guy from before. Where do you live? I'll help you home if you want," she said, trying to sound as nice and gentle as possible. She wasn't really good at the whole "gentle" thing, but he probably needed it by the look of it. "And what happened? I saw you not too long ago and you were fine.."

As she was talking, she knelt down and tried to lift his shirt a bit to see the worst of what appeared to be a cut. It didn't look fatal, but if definitely was leaving a scar. "Hey, it's not so bad... Come on, I'll get you fixed up," she said, more to herself than to him. She was already thinking of what she'd need to do to help him. He looked absolutely terrified, which she couldn't blame him if something stabbed him. She had to guess it was a stab, because it looked cleaner than the injury she got on the ice. He had tucked himself against the wall too, which gave her the impression he didn't know what to do.
