CTF RP: No Man's Land

[., Goddess of Bacon]

No Man's Land is an area south of both Red and Blue places, where medics attend to the fallen and no fighting is permitted.

Narcyz stumbled towards Chiron, who removed the poison from his back.

Hayley sighed in relief as the battle sounds faded and they crossed over to safety.

Myra's head lolled against Acton's chest as she was dragged to Chiron; she was in no danger of regaining consciousness anytime soon. The pain was far too great.

[[deleted user]]

Acton ignored the faint tickling of Myra's plume, and placed her in front of Chiron, his eyes wide.

Nat, Olive, Jaidon, and Elisa gathered, hearing the horn. Nat looked exahusted, using her powers so. Elisa was a mess, wet and frazzeled. Olive just looked sour, sharing Jaidon's expression.

[., Goddess of Bacon]

No Man's Land was slowly fillin gup with campers-- not just the wounded. The battle for the flag had ended.
Ajax Gremm, captain of the Blue team, was lying on a makeshift bed, his shirt completely soaked through with blood. He was conscious, but barely so; Evander's axe had cleaved his shoulder, through his armor.

Meanwhile Chiron was hovering over Myra, a retenue of dryads at his beck and call. The girl had passed out, though whether that was from physical trauma or a sleeping charm was hard to tell. Her arm was broken in the worst way possible; blood was seeping out from where the cracked bone had pierced the skin.

Airlia and Deon had been taken to the infirmary, both unconscious. After his massive expense of power, Deon was expected to be in a coma for the next few days; Airlia had suffered numerous dagger stabs and an arrow to the arm.

((Diona's there too, right?))

The shaky-breath little girl lay, unconcious. Her clothes were bloodied, limbs bent at odd angles. Her shoulder was gashed, and cuts across her face. Brusies ccovered part of her head, and her hair shone with crimson blood. Blistered hands, and you could tell the exahustion by the sickly pale color of her skin. The tiny, fragile body did not look like it could take down anything, with help or no.

Caspar had swerved immediately to Diona's aid, dragging in the unconscious Vonne and laying her on a cot. He touched a hand to Diona's forehead, numbing her thoughts with his wine magic, looking for all the world very lost and worried.

Deitra glanced around the entire area, seemingly untouched. Her eyes scanned the area for any sign of injured siblings, a frown on her face. She had her hands in her pockets.

Holly had her itch treated first; the burning it caused her was unbearable. Unfortunately on her way to No Man's Land she had scratched herself up badly, trying to satisfy her prickling skin. She was beat up and bruised, though no major wounds (except to her pride) were visible. She sulked around the her teammates for awhile, checking up on most before walking over to Ajax. "Hi, love," she greeted softly, brow creased in concern.

Once he'd gotten the flag to it's place, Lucas had rushed back to No Man's Land, passing the other campers without a second glance. His only worry was for Myra. Seeing her with Chiron, he walked over hurriedly, looking down at her unconscious face.

[., Goddess of Bacon]

Holly's voice lulled him from his stupor and Ajax opened his eyes. "Hallo, darling." The cocky drawl was muted with pain. "Myra's arrows, huh. You should... should probably get that checked out." No visible signs of gloating were detectable; indeed, Ajax was ashamed and embarassed of himself. I'm a lousy captain.

"Congratulations, Lucas," came Chiron's rumbling voice, bent over Myra, fitting the bone back in her arm. It was gruesome and tiring work but he fit it back in eventually after disinfecting the area, and motioned for the nymphs to bring the cast. "She fell off a tree after Narcyz cursed her to sleep," Chiron said in a low voice, turning to Lucas. "Broke her arm."

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

"What happened to you?" Holly murmured in question, worry clear in her eyes. He'd gotten hurt far worse than she, it seemed. She caught a glimpse of Diona on her way in, along with her brother, and had to resist the urge to go over and do something.

Lucas nodded numbly, only taking in half the words as he watched the nymphs work. He gave them a grateful look, something rarely seen from the son of Ares, murmuring a faint thanks.

Jasmine approached Deitra, bruised all over her arms and legs. "We lost," she muttered nonchalantly, looking over her sister for an signs of injury.

[., Goddess of Bacon]

"Evander," Ajax managed; it was enough. Though he was critically wounded his dark eyes moved over Holly. "How... you're not injured?" He sounded very confused.

Chiron clapped a hand over Lucas' shoulder. "She'll be fine... eventually," he said in a breezy tone. Simyda glanced up from Myra's arm. "Shall I wake her now?"

[Iviana (The Sign Painter), The Goddess of indecisiveness]

"What happened to you?" Deitra asked, eying Jasmine carefully.

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

Adrian walked in, drowsy and embarassed. He frowned at his sister with worry and watched her. He face was concerned, brow furrowed and eyes scitterish.

Elisa steped forward, "May I help them?" She whispered quietly to Chiron, eyes full of worry and care, she crossed her fingers behind her back and took off her helmet.

Diona whispered something incomprehensible in her unconciousness. Her hand flitted at her side in a frantic motion.

Devon emerged from the shadows behind the sisters, Jasmine and Deitra. "So, so sad." He mocked. "This is why I find this game has no importance, so many wounded, why? For a stinkin flag. And guess what Jaz, ya didn't mess up. Well not too badly." He said.

[[deleted user]]

"No," Holly said quietly, shaking her head a little. "I'm fine." Smiling weakly, she added, "You won, champ."

Lucas nodded again, this time more awake and alert. "Please," he said quietly, regarding Simyda.

"Lucas," Jasmine mumbled, looking at the ground with a mixture of disdain and relief, ignoring Devon.

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

((Van did you read my post? Shame, shame. :P))

[Iviana (The Sign Painter), The Goddess of indecisiveness]

Deitra nodded. "Don't blame yourself," she replied.

Cassidy entered, soaking wet, and looking positively furious. She would get her revenge. Eventually. But she would.

[[deleted user]]

((Edited.))

[., Goddess of Bacon]

"No, I didn't," Ajax muttered, eyes still incredulous. But he told me... she was dying...

Simyda looked at him carefully for a moment; it seemed as if she saw someone else in the boy, but nodded after a moment and turned to Myra, opening the girl's mouth gently and sending in a spray of nectar, murmuring a blessing. Myra's eyes fluttered open slowly, and the first thing she did was gasp loudly at the pain, a sharp intake of breath, every inch of her trembling.
Chiron turned to Elisa. "It seems the work here is done, why don't you attend to the other wounded," he said.

Meanwhile Simyda had turned to Diona. Her brother was fretting at her side, absolutely frantic with worry. "I used some magic on her to lessen the pain," he burst out as he saw the approaching nymph.
Simyda nodded. "I'll heal her."

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis)]

Rose walked strode in, pissed at herself. She was oblivious to the fact that she hadn't thought of Ajax on her own, all she knew was that she'd barely done anything but dreamt of Ajax.

Brandon entered, dragging his sister's sleeping body with him. He was grinning ear to ear, pleased with what he'd done to the little b*tch.

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

Devon grinned menacingly, slipping back into the shadows.

Elisa nodded in thanks, and turned to exactly who he said. She began humming and gliding her fingers over small wound of other soldiers, Red and Blue team.

Diona lay still for a moment, her breathing stopped abruptly. The blood had spread from where the dagger had pierced her arm, digging dep into the muscle. When the lightning hit her it had made the wound worse and now the blood had seeped farther in her shirt. Her breaths returned, shakily. They were fragile as if one touch would shatter them.

[Iviana (The Sign Painter), The Goddess of indecisiveness]

Cassidy glared at him, gnashing her teeth.

[[deleted user]]

"Then we both didn't," Holly said, raising a brow at the way he was looking at her. As if she was a ghost or something. "What?"

"Myra," Lucas breathed in relief, scooting closer to her side. Evander hadn't been lying after all, but that wasn't much of a pick-me-up.

"Yeah, yeah," Jasmine said, wincing as she tried to shrug. "At least this thing is over. Fun and games," she whispered, a cynical euphemism.

[., Goddess of Bacon]

"Please do," Caspar said fervently. "She shouldn't have been fighting."
Something seemed to well up and die in Simyda's eyes and she murmured more healing spells over Diona. The healing that she hadn't used for over three thousand years flooded back to her and she passed her silvery glowing hand over Diona's arm wound. The muscle knitted together and the blood seeped back into the wound, the skin closing over it in a healthy sheen of pink.
Simyda staggered back. It had drained most of her energy, the healing-- she was long out of practise.

"Myra," Lucas breathed in relief, scooting closer to her side. Evan..."

Deitra rolled her eyes. "You're letting him get to you," she said. "Ignore him."

"Myra," Lucas breathed in relief, scooting closer to her side. Evan..."

"He told me you were dying," Ajax said, the breath shuddering in and out of him in terrified relief. "And I was just sitting here. I tried to get up to find you but the nymphs thought I was delirious and charmed me to the bed. I can't move."

"Hi," Myra croaked out, closing her eyes for a moment against the nausea. "I fell off again," she managed.

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

Diona gasped, he eyes opened shining a bright grey. She shakily took breaths, flexing her hands. "I'm alive." She whispered. "I didn't break my neck." She added. Diona looked at Caspar, then her eyes turned surprised and slightly scolding. "I would've been fine." She whispered sharply, then started to get down from the cot to help Simyda.

Adrian watched Myra and Lucas, jaw set. He wasn't going to interfear but didn't like it. His hands were clenched at his sides, as he ignored the urge to itch his legs.

[Iviana (The Sign Painter), The Goddess of indecisiveness]

((interfere*))

Iviana (The Sign Painter!) wrote: "Cassidy glared at him, gnashing her teeth."

Brandon was oblivious to Cassidy's presence, and continued to drag Xeena. He felt bad for Narcyz, knowing he was screwed when Xeena awoke.

[., Goddess of Bacon]

((*interfere))

"You little twerp," Caspar burst out. "You could have been killed, what were you thinking?! You were told to stay in the back, what were you doing, fighting it out?"

[[deleted user]]

"I am not," Jasmine said defiantly, huffing in sheer indignation. "I'm just glad this is over, is all."

"Oh, Ajax." Without another word, eyes laden with emotion, Holly planted a delicate kiss on his forehead. And teasingly added, "You worrisome dolt, I'm fine."

"I know," Lucas said softly, caressing her cheek with a ginger hand. "You broke your arm," he said, glancing at the cast.

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

"No! I was back in the territory when those-" She pointed to Airlia and Deon. "Little bast*rds came along thinking they could just take the flag right out from under Olive's nose. You think I was just going to stand in the shadows and watch them try? Nuh-uh I used my ninja powers to restrain them but then she used her weird charming love powers to stop me and the Jaidon came along and saved us with Elisa! But then they started to get away and hurt Liza so I started throwing daggers at them and the Airlia threw a dagger at me and hurt my arm and then I got all woozy and then Deon hit me with lightning and I passed out and fell out of a tree so HA I wasn't at front line I was where Ajax told me to be!" She exclaimed, her voice was fast and excited. While she was talking she urge Simyda to sit on the cot so that she could get some water or Elisa.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis)]

Rose snapped her head up as she heard the familiar voice of her brother. Someone who actually loved her. Someone who wanted her company. She sauntered up to him, doing her best to hide her tear stains. "What happened?" She asked, looking Didi over with a shocked expression.

Deitra rolled her eyes. "Sure, Jasmine."

[., Goddess of Bacon]

((LOL HIS HAND HAS RED HAIR?!?! XDDDDDDD))

"Good," Ajax said, forcing a weak smile. Since when had it ever hurt to smile? "Me, too."

Myra groaned-- more like a soft exhale, in her condition. "Not again." She shifted slightly, wincing in pain. "Are you hurt?"

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

((Whimmy did you see my postiez?))

[., Goddess of Bacon]

((Nope, sorry.))

[., Goddess of Bacon]

"No! I was back in the territory when those-" She pointed to Airlia and Deon. "Little bast*rds came along thinking they could just take the flag right out from under Olive's nose.

She exclaimed, her voice was fast and excited. While she was talking she urge Simyda to sit on the cot so that she could get some water or Elisa.

Simyda raised an eyebrow at her and turned to the dumbstruck Caspar. "I have others to take care of. Please make sure she stays in bed." With that, she swept off.

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

Diona watched her go. "See?" She said to Caspar, tilting her head with a hand on her hip.

((-.- Yes, because I see so many Mexican pee-pol with red hair. xD))
"No one is 'getting to me'," Jasmine repeated in a sure mutter, folding her arms across her chest.

"If it makes you feel any better, y'know, besides the fact I'm alive," Holly said, talking to try and lighten the mood a bit. "I've got a present for you," she sang out, waggling her brows playfully.

"No, I'm okay," Lucas replied, pulling his hand back with a soft sigh. "I got us the flag," he said, empty cheeriness in his voice.

[*~Silvypoo~* (Chaser of Artemis)]

Rose raised an eyebrow at Caspar, then at Diona. "What did she do?" She asked again, giving her a very dissaproving look before looking back at Caspar.

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

((on my iPod!))

[., Goddess of Bacon]

Caspar rolled his eyes. "I'm glad you're okay, Diona. Please try to get some sleep."

Ajax brightened. "What's that?"

"That's good," Myra murmured softly, her eyes flicking to Lucas'. "Hey, congratulations. I'd give you une baiser but I think I'm incapable of moving," she said, apology under her pained voice.

"If it makes you feel any ..."

"Mkay," Deitra replied, shrugging. "Do you have anything broken?"

Silverfur- (I love Edward!!!!!!) wrote: "Rose raised an eyebrow at Caspar, then at Diona. "What did she do?" She asked again, giving her a very dissaproving look before looking back at Caspar."

"Not much, according to her," Caspar said in a disbelieving scoff. "However I doubt that. There's no way a nature manipulator could have been hurt that badly."

[Kat, Goddess of Dramatic Exits and Strawberry Yogurt]

"Here?" Diona asked, wrinkling her nose. But she was feeling tired...

[., Goddess of Bacon]

"Yeah. They'll roll the cot back to the infirmary," Caspar assured her, giving her a dose of wine magic.
