1x1 With AnnaCat17 and Echo!

Piper hurried and helped the two guys into the hut and down to sit against the wall. She removed their melted boots and pushed up their charred ant legs before treating their burns. "You'll be ok. Your clothing took most of the damage." SHe muttered to them both as she examined the burns on Dash's side, relieved to see they weren't very bad.

Astra gasped in pain at Liah's touch and tried to push her away. "Ill do it myself." SHe snapped but her hands were shaking badly. Unlike the guys, she hadn't had as much protective clothing causing the burns on her feet and legs to be bad and already were blistering angrily.

Dalton grunted, setting his injured foot up on a chair to examine it. His stomach twisted as he looked at it, and he forced his eyes away.

Liah calmly took Astra's hands, setting them down. "You can barely hold your hands still. It's better if I do it." She continued to treat her, her gaze focused. "Did you kill her?" She asked them, keeping her eyes on Astra's legs.

Dash gripped Dalton's hand tightly, looking at him worriedly as Piper tried to treat them.

Azuna sat down in a chair, holding her bleeding wound and feeling weak. She shook her head, her face pale and beaded with sweat. "No. Even injured she is powerful. She had the upper hand anyways."

Astra squeezed her eyes shut, trying to block everything out and clenching her hands tightly.

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Dalton's jaw clenched, and he pushed Piper away. "Treat Azuna first," he snapped. He was worried about her. She wasn't looking so good. He held on to Dash's hand, but didn't turn to look at him.
Caia sat down on a chair, holding her stomach. She watched as Hestia hugged her knee, missing her. Raelynn watched her worriedly, but her mother's wound wasn't the worst compared to everyone else's.

Piper nodded and shakily went to Azuna, working on stitching her up.

Azuna cursed angrily as Piper worked on her. Dash let go of Dalton and limped to the cupboards, searching through them and not caring he was making a mess. He found a jar of moonshine Magnus had hidden from Liah and tossed it Azuna who greedily took a gulp of it. She tossed the jar to Dalton before looking at Caia. "We need to get her to attack us. SHe knows that area too well and if we try to do a full attack we will be dead before we even step foot on the sand."

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Dalton poured some on his foot, cursing as it stung. He look a drink and then set the jar on the table.
Caia scoffed. "She uses people for that purpose. She won't come here herself. She'll try to find another way to kill us while we're over here, or to draw us out."

[AnnaCat17]

Azuna growled in pain and as soon as Piper was done she shoved her roughly away causing her to stumble and fall on her butt on the ground. SHe ignored Pipers hurt expression. "There has to be something we can do! Sending warrior drop outs like her isnt going to get us anywhere." Azuna snarled bitterly, nodding towards Astra.

Astra grit her teeth at Azuna's comment but didnt bother to try to defend herself. These were Azuna's people, if she said anything back to her she would probably be back in the same spot she was in with Iris. Once Liah was done she shakily forced herself to her bandaged feet and limped towards the door, not bothering to retrieve ehr shoes since they were damaged anyway.

Dash picked up the jar as soon as Dalton had set it down and took several large swallows of the burning liquor, trying to destroy all memory of that day. He choked a bit and wiped his mouth off as he saw Astra moving towards the door. "Hey, no. You need to rest." He said to her but she ignored him.

After he had sent the kids outside, Mikah went in only to see Piper get pushed. Frowning, he helped her up, dusting her clothes off.

Liah followed Astra, grabbing her wrist to stop her. "Where do you think you're going?" she asked, raising an eyebrow. "You're injured and can barely walk."

[AnnaCat17]

Azuna ignored Mikah, not wanting to see his expression towards the situation.

Piper gave a grateful smile to Mikah before turning and finishing to help Dash and Dalton.

Astra pulled her wrist away from Liah. She cast a skeptical look at the others before looking back at Liah. "I appreciate your help but I can take care of myself. I dont get why you are all trying to help and save me but I think its obvious at this point I have nothing to offer so just leave me be."

[EchoOfShatteredIce]

Mikah went over to Azuna, gently brushing her hair over her shoulder. "You okay?" he asked her softly, concerned.

"Where are you going to go, huh? Iris will only kill you. There's no where to go. Stay here until we finish things with Iris, okay? Stay until your legs are healed." Liah gazed at her calmly. "We don't want anything from you. We just want to help."
