[Moonlit Dream]

((XD Lol!))

Kurou winced at that. "G-great..." He muttered. He bit back back a gasp of pain as she put him on her back, his wound searing with an intense firey pain, then he nodded feebly. "Oomph..." he muttered, struggling to try and get a grip pn her. Nanami's smooth scales and sleek body didn'd exactly make that an any easier task. But at least his bloodflow was quelling, what had once seemed to be an endless torrent was slowing. Though whether it was because of the wound healing or because he'd bled so much anyway that there wasn't much left in him, he wasn't sure.

Nanami struggled to keep him on her back as she tried to crawl over the ground and not flop, for his sake. She couldn't see anywhere. The clouds were blocking her vision. She was heading toward the exit, but didn't know.

[Moonlit Dream]

Kurou grimaced, trying to make himself get in Nanami's way as little as possible, but pain stopped his efforts in their tracks, and he went limp again. Kurou looked at the darkness around them. He could barely see even Nanami beneath him, but whether that was because of the darkness or the dog in his own vision, he couldn't tell. He gave a small moan, beginning to see a faint blue line in the distance beyond the darkness, and a faint light. "We're going... To the water!?" Kurou whispered in horror, mostly to himself, his skin beginning to prickle in horror. "But... I can't swim!"

[==★ тea & caĸeѕ ★==]

Nanami had no other choice. She nodded a little, and kept crawling forward, her scales beginning to get dirty as she dragged herself through the mud down to the water. "We have...no other choice..." She murmured quietly. "You'll just have to hold on tight!" She said a little louder, plunging into the water. She held onto his arms as she jumped into the water, and held them as she surfaced. "Kurow, are you okay?" She asked worriedly.

[Moonlit Dream]

Kurou gripped Nanami tighter, fear of the water consuming everything else; except his pain. But he tried to mask his fear with the usual calm. "U-uh ooooh!" He gave a startled yelp, voice raising for a second, as she plunged into the water, and struggled against the water as he tried to pull himself to the surface. The crimson was coming off of his body in waves as the water hit him, and he gave a cry, bubbles emerging from his mouth and nose. Then he felt himself being pulled to the surface by his arms, and gasped for breath as he surfaced, legs kicking uncontrollably as he tried desperately to stay afloat. "Aack! I'm sinking!" he gave a short whimper and then tried to wrap his arms around Nanami as though hugging her.

{Sorry, had my phone taken away...}

Nanami couldn't help but give a little laugh. "No, your...struggling. Don't worry, I'll carry you," she said, turning around and putting him on her back again. She breathed in through her nose and out her mouth, giving a long exhale. "Hold on tight," she murmured over her shoulder. She started to flap her tail fin and push through the murky water using her arms, struggling against the dense muck clouding her vision. She was starting to see flecked of purple in her vision as she swam out of the forest and into rapids.

[Moonlit Dream]

Kurou trembled in response, looking up at her indignantly through his elongated eyes as she laughed. "What's so funny?" he asked, still clinging onto Nanami as best he could, arms wrapped tightly around her, even as she moved him round so that he was on her back. His eyes widened as she took a deep breath. "We're, like, going under... Again!?" He resisted the urge to squeak and then sucked in his breath as Nanami began to swim forwards. At least the bloodflow of his wound seemed to have stopped, the pain less noticable now.

[==★ тea & caĸeѕ ★==]

Nanami struggled against the current a bit, but kept her head above the water, for Kurow's sake. "Try to hold your breath, we're in rapids. If we suddenly go under I don't want you to run out of air," she called to him over the rapids. She gasped as she was just able to dodge a large rock. Gotta watch where I'm going... She thought, focusing on the water ahead of her.

[Moonlit Dream]

Kurou gave a short yowl. "What's that s'posed to mean!?" he gasped, coughing as he drew in a mouthful of water. He didn't seem pleased as Nanami almost swam into a rock. "Duuuuuuuuuuuuude!" he gasped. "I, like, don't think this is, like, the safest way to travel!" He grimaced, still gripping onto Nanami tightly and not really knowing whether it would be too tight for her a lot. "Why am I here, anyway?"

[==★ тea & caĸeѕ ★==]

"It means don't let go of me!" She called over her shoulder to him. "We need to get to the city as quick as we can, and this is the fastest way to go!". She swerved around another rock, able to see the ocean ahead. "We're almost out of the rapids!" She panted, her tail fin starting to get tired.
