Crashing like a Wave Closed

Thea screamed as the pain in her legs increased. She heard only the blood pupping in her brain. She saw a blurry figure jump out of the tree and run over but she couldn't figure out if it was Teiki or Leanne. She didn't care right now she closed her eyes and let out another blood curtailing scream.

The person was talking again but still Thea could not understand her. She cried out when a sharp pain went through her leg and she bit down hard on her lip to not scream again. She felt week and remembered only that she was not alone she was sure now that there was at least Teiki there. She still did not know if Leanne was there or running for help.

She sat there for who knows how long and just screamed. She felt warm hands wrap around her head and she calmed a little. She muttered underneath her breath "Gabe, is that you?" She knew it was not but she could not help but think that he might be there.

She gasped as the she felt the blood on her legs and her clothes. She had been to numb to notice before and now the pain was worse too. She screamed and screamed and finally the pain was too much and she fell unconscious.

@Thea Everdeen, @Teiki Laurent

As she saw Thea swinging dangerously on the branch, she wanted to warn her, but it was too late. Her friend had fallen from a great height, resulting in deep wounds that were created by the splinters on the tree. Being not that nimble as Teiki, she took some time before arriving on the ground. Leanne chided herself on her stupid decision to remove her shoes, as it could result in more time wasted to save her friend. 

Thea suddenly gave a blood-curling scream, which prompted her to hurry down faster. She tried to quell the rising panic that was developing, desperately hoping that the Hufflepuff was fine. 

She arrived on the scene to discover blood leaking from the deep cuts on her knees, and inwardly cursed herself for not knowing any spells or potions that could save Thea's life. There was one, episkey, but she didn't know the wand movements for that. Being a first year like her, she doubted Teiki knew how to perform this spell. There was also no antiseptic on hand. Sighing, Leanne did it the muggle way instead.

Before arriving at Hogwarts, she'd once attended a muggle first-aid course, and was well-versed on what to do in situations like this. Unwrapping her blue-and-bronze scarf, she tied it round and round Thea's wounds, using it as a makeshift bandage, by applying as much pressure as possible to stop the blood flow. While doing so, she heard the Hufflepuff calling out for her dearest friend, and soothingly replied. "Shush Thea, it's going be fine." Leanne knew that Thea's pain would have increased by then. "Just wait a little longer, and you'll be in the infirmary in no time!"  

But alas, the pain was too much for her to bear, and Leanne now held a limp Thea in her arms, wondering how to carry her all the way back by herself. She almost forgot Teiki, and looked up to see her face alight with fear.  She quickly wore her shoes back, and gesturing to Thea, she asked:

"Could you help me carry Thea to the Infirmary? She's rather heavy to move alone." 

@Thea Everdeen @Leanne Chua

The scream physically pained Teiki. The next one did, too. They tore at her mental self, wishing her to break down into small pieces. But she forced against it, biting her front lip slightly as she watched the fallen girl. She knew nothing of this- no way to help or really comfort. Not that she seemed like she could use comfort- already too far under the wave of pain it appeared.

More screams and then the girl was limp. Leanne had scrambled down by that point, doing more than Teiki ever could. She watched as the Ravenclaw applied a makeshift bandage, before struggling to carry the other Hufflepuff. Teiki just watched, not truly there.

"Oh? Oh! Sorry." She silently bobbed her head, rushing over to the Ravenclaw's side to prop Thea up. She wasn't particularly strong in any way, but she could still try to help. She stayed behind Leanne, though, allowing her to take charge.

"The infirmary's pretty high up. Maybe we should just get her inside first? I'm sure they'll have some supplies in one of the classrooms." This was the only helpful bit of information that Teiki could provide, and she dutifully followed the Ravenclaw, voice no longer.

Thea just felt... well she didn't feel anything at all. She was able to pick out the voices around her though. She was sure that it was Teiki and Leanne that were talking to each other. She slowly and painfully opened a eye and looked around. She closed it hurriedly though when she saw she was in the infirmary. She hated hospitals of any kind.

She could not feel anything waist down but she could feel two hands in both of her's. She opened her eyes again and saw her two friends standing next to her bed. Her head was a wreck though. She could only feel Teiki and Leanne's hands and her blood pounding in her head. She gasped as she looked down at her legs. They were bandaged and she felt them throbbing now. She whipped up her head because of the sharp pain that came from her head.

She could hear her friends voices now and she knew that they would not leave her. She tried to talk but all that came out was a snarl. She immediately stopped trying to talk. She looked at them and tried to smile.

Tears slowly came to her eyes and she bit down hard on her lip to not scream. The numbness in her legs was going away. She couldn't help it she tried to scream but instead it came out as a whimper and after that a snarl. She leaned over and pointed at a glass of water. Someone got it for her and she drank great fully. She then said "What happened, it feels like I got mauled by a bear." She looked at them hurriedly "I don't want you guys thinking that I am crazy when I was snarling and whimpering. Just to let you know those are hunting signals of a wolf and my signal that something has gone wrong. I use them in situations when I can't talk, like what I just experienced. What happened though?"
