Penelope Givens ~ Hermes ~ #483D8BAndy answered, only to remind Iliana of Nelly. Iliana turned back to the redhead to see her collapsed on the ground. Mentally cursing her own condition, Iliana dragged herself back over to Nelly just as she saw more campers arrive. It didn't matter to her who showed up, she was just glad that they were still alive. Refocusing on Nelly, she checked her pulse and she had one, much to her relief. She should check her injury, and even though it was still dark out, she could feel that the shirt was damp with blood for Nelly was laying on her stomach.

This was how Heath found his sister. He miraculously found the main hall and from there made it to the arena. His head was still killing him but seeing the condition of some of the other campers upon entering the arena, he got off easily. He was quick to notice the tents too and medical supplies. Soon he spotted his sister and a passed-out Nelly. Relieved, he approached them.

"Lia, how are you?"

Iliana looked up to see Heath as he bent down on the other side of Nelly.

"I hurt my knee, but other than being tired, I am okay. Nelly apparently got bit by a snake and lost some blood. Her shirt is covering the wound. I want to check her injury, but I can't do it on my own. She needs fresh bandages. I wish I had some of my healing ointment."

Keeping his cool, Heath nodded. He knew how to do basic first aid and had read up on what to do in emergencies too, but never really put it into practice. He just hoped Nelly didn't need stitches since he had no knowledge of that.

"Let me get some medical supplies. I'll be right back." he said before getting up.

Returning, he and Iliana worked together to patch Nelly up better, who remained unconscious throughout the whole procedure. Her injury hadn't been too serious, but the bite was deep. It didn't look like she was poisoned from what either could tell since the skin wasn't swollen. It must have been a big snake too since the distance between to the 2 puncture wounds were almost 6 inches apart, at least from what Heath could tell. After finishing up, Heath took Nelly to one of the tents and put her inside of one. The best thing she needed was rest until Cherise could help her. Iliana said she'd make some of her healing ointment to help Nelly as well as anyone else.

"Okay sis, time to help you out. Let's get you seated somewhere. You can tell me how you got hurt so I have a better idea." Heath said before picking his sister up and putting her on one of the bleachers so he could inspect her knee.

Ethan acknowledged Veronica's request. He did need to get Daniel help asap and while he did feel guilty leaving Veronica behind, he felt slightly better that someone was sticking with her. Seemed like new people were still showing up. Now he wouldn't wonder about it. As he led the horse to the arena, he thought about recent events, especially tonight. Considering he wasn't the fighting type, he thought he did decently, but what about next time, if there was. Why was he really here? The answer was simple, to help Heath with Iliana. Before tonight's event, it seemed like Iliana was trying to do more things on her own, considering she wanted to train with Nicholas. Did she really need his help anymore? Thought of it left him reeling a bit and he would have pursued that line of thinking if he hadn't come upon the arena just then.

Feeling relieved, he entered the arena to see a good number of campers there, including Heath and Iliana. As much as he wanted to check on them, his first priority was Daniel, who was still out of it. A cursory glance didn't reveal Andy anywhere. Considering Daniel's condition, maybe it was a good thing she wasn't around. Being careful, he managed to get Daniel off of the horse and ease him on the ground as carefully as possible, even though it was a struggle. Then he went about seeing to any injuries he could manage.
