::Wendy's eyes grow wide as she pushes past them to get to the backseat. She flings the door open::
Why didn't you two say so? This must be divine providence, us bumping into each other. Quickly, there's a safehouse not far from here. I'll kall for someone to pick up the wagon. There's nothing of value in it, so it should be safe if we leave it here. But I think it would be safer if you let me drive.
::Without waiting for approval, she lets herself into the driver's seat::

::Kerion fallows and gets into the backseat. Jas forces the passenger door open and gets in, holding the door shut as it wouldn't close:: "Let's go!"

::The car zooms down the avenue, albeit much smoother than when Jas was driving until they arrive at a small club on the outskirts of the fashion district, still untouched by the fighting. Club Chocobo a Gogo to be exact. Wendy knocks three times, then kicks it twice. The viewing hole slides open::
Doug: I'm afraid we're closed till later tonight.
Doug? Where's Raul?
Doug: Took the day off. What can I do you for?
Never mind that, just open the door.
Doug: I'll need to see some identification.
::Angrily, Wendy stuffs her fingers into viewing hole, poking the man in both eyes::
There's no time for your foolishness. Now open the door!
Doug: ::rubbing his eyes:: Right this way Miss Scarlet.
::The door opens and Wendy starts barking orders. The place is empty save for Doug and Marrissa who's running a routine cleaning of the tables::
Marrissa, klear off one of the tables. Doug, I want you to fetch me some hot water. And what are you two standing around for? Get him in here.

::Jas and Kerion nod before the get Galeon out of the backseat, being careful not to drop him or make his injuries worse before getting him onto the table that was cleared off. Jas takes a cloth and wipes the sweat that was forming on his forehead, feeling him burning up:: "We might want to do this fast, his fever is getting worse."

::Wendy reaches to the rosaries hanging around her waist and pulls out a small satchel that hangs at their edge. She undoes the bandages around his wound, keeping pressure on it so it won't bleed out::
Jas, break a leg off of one of the chairs. Give me a small piece for him to bite down on.

::Nods before breaking off a leg off the closest chair and a piece for him to bite down on. He rips a piece of cloth and wraps it so he would have splinters in his mouth. He hands the leg to Gwen while he places the wrapped wood in Galeon's mouth:: "Ready."

::Wendy pulls some strange herbs from her satchel and grinds them together in her pale fingers. Then she presses them into the wound. Galeon's fingers start trembling, and the tremor spreads to his arms. Soon he's thrashing as the burn spreads through his entire body::
Hold him down!
::Despite his thrashing, she holds fast, pressing the herbs deeper into the gash, cleansing the infection::

::Kerion hurries and holds Galeon's shoulders down to prevent him from trashing while Jas moves to his legs and does the same thing::
Jas: Calm down Gal, it'll be over soon. ::Looks to Wendy:: What kindof herbs were those?

::Sweat forms on Wendy's brow as she holds her position, forcing the herbs into the wound. Slowly, Galeon's thrashing starts to subside. Then he's still and asleep. Wendy sighs and finds a chair to place near the table before taking a seat::
They're from Thamasa. There's powerful magik in that town. They try to avoid kontakt for the most part, but they're friendly with our Mother Superior. Her brother once served in their ranks. They're powerful, but the burn is enough break someone if they're not strong enough to handle it. I had a feeling he'd be able to pull through it though.
::She sighs heavily, looking much weaker than she was a moment ago. Galeon on the other hand looks a little healthier. Had she transferred some of her energy to him without realizing it?::

::Kerion lets go as the thrashing dies down, noting that he fell asleep. He removes one of his gloves and feels his forehead:: "Fever's gone. Looks like those herbs did the trick."
::His PHS rings as he grabs it:: "Excuse me one moment. Private call." ::He walks outside::

::Wendy rubs her forehead::
Sorry. Healing kan be stressful. I do hope you won't tell anyone.
::She lifts her fingers to her veil and pulls it from her head, letting her waist length sandy blond curls fall to her waist::
You look like you need some rest. I kan watch him for you. I'll tell you as soon as he wakes up.

"I'm alright, I just need something to drink."
::Unnoticed, a soft meow is heard as Kerion steps out the door. As all eyes turn, they saw it was a kitten that mewed. Wendy reconized the kitten as the one that was with Jas last time they met::
"There you are Kyran." ::He kneels down and offers his arm as the cat runs up it onto his shoulder::
[glow=white,2,300]I finally found you guys. Why didn't you two save me some of that food in a doggie bag like I asked?![/glow]
Sorry about that. How's Iole and Oliver?
[glow=white,2,300]They're doing fine, but we did have a brief scare with Oliver. How's your guy's end?[/glow]
*Sighs* Besides Galeon nearly getting killed, we found out that Nu is involved in this.
[glow=white,2,300]WHAT?![/glow]
::Wendy can see the cat has stiffen in fear, but is unsure why and heard the 'what' in her mind at the same time::
Kyran, calm down.
[glow=white,2,300]Sorry. But what game is he playing this time?[/glow]
I don't know, but if it's one of his plans, it can't be good.
[glow=white,2,300]Iole told me Kerion was trying to kill them, any clue why?[/glow]
His daughter is being held hostage, he had to or she'll be killed.
[glow=white,2,300]I see... I'll relay that to Iole when I get back.[/glow]

She is just adorable.
::She reaches out and scratches behind Kyran's ears::
(OOC: Off to work. Hopefully Galeon will post tonight)

::This time Kyran doesn't seem to mind as she purrs::
You're such a kitten.
[glow=white,2,300]At this point, it feels so good that I don't care...[/glow]

((OOC: Holy crap...lol Sorry I missed so much! Thank you though for moving me through )) Galeon stayed still on the table unconscious. This deep sleep was something he definitely needed. It had been some time since he had a full nights sleep. He would have to thank the near death experience for this opportunity. He laid there dreaming oh his friends he'd made and then his dream turned some what sour. A familiar face broke up the party. It was Jenova again, but this time she seemed different then before. Some one was controlling her this time. A black figure stood behind her. He wasn't able to make out who it was though. The figure seemed faceless someone he'd never seen before. " Who the hell is that?" He tried to get closer only to be intercepted by the dream Jenova. " Dont think so boy..."" Get out of my way Jenova...I'm through with you...We killed you and I don't want to see your ugly mug ever again!" " But Galeon, my boy...We've been through so much...All those years of destruction..."Jenova laughed and then was interrupted by a punch in the face as she disappeared as did the rest of the cast in his dream.

((OOC: ::Evil grin:: Don't mention it))
::Galeon heard footsteps behind him. But as he went to turn around, he saw no one::
"Ah, the host of my creation. It's been a long time since I last saw you, though you have never seen me."

Galeon blinked remembering the voice from another time.
" You were there....The day we killed Jenova...Who are you?"
Galeon's body tensed a bit back in the club while he continued to sleep on the table.

::The owner of the voice appears to Galeon. His appearance makes Galeon mistake him for Jas at first. But then realizes the figure is different, long midnight black hair, clothing black with reddish flames going up the sleeves. Bat-like wings protruding from his back. But what got Galeon the most was his blood red eyes. Although he didn't show it, Galeon felt the dark intentions coming off him in waves:: "My name is Nu. Although I have gone by other names, one that you must have heard of. Hyne I belive."

" Hyne?"
He thought for a second.
" Sounds familiar...You'll have to forgive me though, my memory doesn't seem to work very well in dream state I suppose..If this is what you call this world..."

"Call it what you will." He replied. "Tell me, out of all the threats you have faced on Gaea, who would you say was your most dangerous opponent?"
