"I wont touch it yet Elizabeth....Dont worry. But I'll have to lift you soon. It wont hurt too much. Promise?" She stuck out her pinky waiting for Elizabeth to link fingers.
"As for you stomach I can get you a nice tea, a mix of ground ivy and slippery elm, that will sooth your throat which will be a little sore or irritated from crying...and it can soothe your stomach too." She gave Elizabeth a serious nod and hoped that she didnt look to threatning. She hated to look at her with such hateful eyes when in reality she loved Elizabeth, but she couldnt help the hard stares with red eyes and hateful demeanor that she gave off. It was just one of the many things that came with being part demon.

Dorian headed back to the camp and grabbed the empty water bottles and found a stream filling all of them with the clean water. Dorian splashed his dirt covered face with the cold water. He then took all the bottles with him back to where Caylx, Kai, Deri, and Elizabeth where. He arrived to see Kai and Caylx not getting along and a fire started. He walked over to Caylx and handed her a bottle. "We've got plenty and the streams not far from here." he said encouraging her to drink. Dorian tossed one to Kai and Deri and then handed one to his sister. He gave her a soft smile knowing she was still in pain. He had a few bottles still in his arm and walked over to the fire. Caylx had said she needed the water to boil what could they use to hold the water over the fire?
(Native Americans used to use deer leather the water inside it would keep it from burning. Caylx would be the only one that knew you could use deer leather for that.)

Im fine." Caylx glanced up at Dorian taking the water bottle.
"I have the skins and the shell from the armadillo. That can hold water well." Caylx said reaching into a pack and pulling out the supplies.
Quickly she found a some mint leaves and the jewel weed from her pocket.
"chew on this. It'll help." Caylx put the plants in Elizabeths hand and got up. She jogged over to a nearby patch of greens and sorted through it.
She picked a plant called Honey suckle and put it in the bowl. Next she found spice bush and put some of it in the armadillo shell again. With her knife, she scraped off the bark of a willow tree and a slippery elm. Caylx hoped that the ingridents would help elizabeth but decided to look for more. Caylx wandered off more and found the leaves of a spice bush and decided that was enough.
Without speaking, she walked over to the fire and added water into the armadillo shell and placed it close to the fire.
She crushed some of the plants into a close powerdery substance and added a few drops of water. Then with her two fingers scooped some of the gloopy green mess up and slathered it onto where Elizabeth said it had hurt.
"A paste made from this can help the swelling and pain. Also a tea can help. But I think thats all I can do....I can search for more plants later but some rest and food and water will help alot." Caylx said pulling out some left over armadillo.
"Dorian, warm this up by the fire and feed her some dinner. Dont forget the tea. Drink and eat slowly. I'll find us some type of game and maybe some kind of fruit or vegetable." Caylx nodded and grabbed her bow and her quiver of arrows.

Once she was out enough she toke off, letting the infa red of her eyes find the game. Her wings propelled her forward along with her feet shoving the dirt and grass out from under her.
A rabbit ran ahead of her darting along the dirt and an arrow rose pinning it to the ground. A squirrel scampered up a tree next to her and she pinned it down. Another rabbit scampered across the ground and this time she launched herself at it grinning in the adreneline rush. She grabbed it with her hands and ripped it with her bare hands. A rustle in a bush nearby stopped her from dismantaling it any further though. She picked up her bow and nocked an arrow, with a brief giggle coming on she walked to the nearby bush and peered in. A bird perched in looking at her with a tilted head.
"Hello there." Caylx said letting it hop onto her finger. After it perched itself on her finger she snapped its neck violently.
Caylx felt drained soon after from the race of the hunt and felt fidgety at the same time.
Drowsily, she wandered around picking up her game on the way back to the camp.
When she arrived back she dropped the game in front of the fire and sat down next to Elizabeth. Caylx looked over at the squirrel she ripped off and closed her eyes.
"How ya feeling?" She asked breathing out trying to calm herself from the hunt.

A few hours passed before the forest finally came into sight. Dr.Mayu was relieved to finally see it as she almost couldn't wait anymore to punish the mutants who dared to escape the lab. As Dr.Mayu was nearing the forest, she prepared her gun and switched to a secret radio channel to a lot of people except for Dr.Mayu and her 'minions'. "Are you ready?" She asked trough the radio. "Everyone is in position." The voice which came out of the radio replied. "Good... Be sure to wait for my signal!" Dr.Mayu said. "Like you command." The voice replied and after that the connection was broken and Dr.Mayu switched to the Global channel. "We are finally getting near the forest... Are you ready to do this?" Dr.Mayu said trough the radio but it was quite oblivious that it was directed at Emma.

Caylx got up and shot a few quick things that she thought were rabbits, squirrels, maybe a possum or racoon so they could all get moving again.

"Not used to being a caveman are you?" She snickered and leaned against a tree trunk. "We can get a knife for ya later and you can shave that off." She chuckeled and bent down. "I'll be right back..gonna scope out this area one last time...." Caylx knealt down and catopoulted herself from the ground into the air. Her wings hurt because she didnt like to fly but it was eaiser and less time consuming that climbing a tree to look around.

Andrew had been exploring the forest when he had heard two motors approach. He had decided to greet the arrivals, but was instead greeted with a guard brandishing twin swords. He figured that his current form would be more than capable of beating the guard. He uttered a simple warning snarl, and pawed at the ground. Whoever the guard was, he was clearly interested in a fight.
* * *
Emma made the first move. In one swift motion, the sword in her left hand flew towards the creature, the sword in her right moving to her left. She charged the thing, smirking as the sword closed distance. The smirk faded, however, when the thrown sword impacted it's target. Her weapon bounced off of the thing's neck with an odd thunk. The thing reacted to the impact by charging her.
* * *
Andrew watched as the guard threw his sword at him. If his current form could smile, he would've. He felt the impact of the weapon, but he knew that it did nothing. Andrew charged at his opponent, aiming for the head.
-------------------
Just before Dr.Mayu and Emma reached the forest, Emma jumped off her bike, made a sword appear with her mutation abilities, nodded on the earlier question asked by Dr.Mayu and ran inside the forest. Dr.Mayu stopped a little later and got out of her car to follow Emma who already ran inside. It didn't take long for Dr.Mayu to find Emma but Emma was fighting against something that looked like a wild dog. It didn't take long for Dr.Mayu to recognize what the so called dog really was. It was one of those escaped mutants. This one was subject 22. Dr.Mayu remembered reading a report about this shapeshifter. Emma just finished attacking the monster but the impact didn't seem to do anything even more noticeable Emma's weapon just bounced off and right after that the monster charged at Emma and it seemed like it was going to try to hit her head. But then suddenly Dr.Mayu started to laugh madly.
"Are you sure you want to do that subject 22?" Dr.Mayu shouted while she was still laughing towards them and while she did this, she had already taken her anti mutation gun out of her pocket and took aim at the monster. The anti mutation guns were made to work on mutants like normal guns work on humans. So no matter what your ability was, if you are a mutant the bullet can do some damage on you. This damage is however weaker than a normal gun does on a human but still can be used to harm mutants and even kill them if used correctly and Dr.Mayu was someone who knew exactly how to use those guns to kill mutants. Besides she still had another trick she could use if things were to go wrong. Dr.Mayu didn't wait for a response from the mutant and just opened fire. She did however not aim at the mutant but at a spot just before Emma. This would cause the monster to get hit by the gun if he would continue his attack and this bullet would cause a small shock which Emma could use to easily dodge the attack. There was obliviously also the possibility that the mutant would stop his attack but it would result in the same for Emma. The chance of Emma being hit by the monster in this attack was very small to none. Dr.Mayu wondered how the mutant would react on Dr.Mayu appearing on the scene herself however and actually hoped for the mutant to get mad and attack her because if he would do that, Dr.Mayu would win this battle for sure.
-------------------
The nights in the forest were hard on subject 89 but she somehow managed in the cold. For the last few days she had been helping the group by doing some minor tasks but this was all she could manage to do. She wanted that she could be of more help though. She was grateful that she wasn't rejected from to group desperate her young age and her uselessness up to now after all. So complaining was the last thing she would want to do. It was not like they could change the situation anyways. The next morning she woke up and immediately started helping with packing the camp up again. It seemed like the group had decided on going deeper inside the forest because of the possible danger that was getting closer to them... Dr.Mayu and her people... Everyone knew that it was just a matter of time before Dr.Mayu would reach this forest. Sometimes it made subject 89 wonder what was going to happen once Dr.Mayu would reach them. But she can only hope for the best...
(Let me remind you guys that we are on a very small island and that except for the lab, the forest, a destroyed city ruled by the underworld and a normal city which isn't destroyed yet there is nothing else then desert on this island.)
