Essie tried to glare at him but couldn't. "Thank you." She said quietly. It did feel a little better, but the poison was still taking effect.

Ethan - 19 - Essie
He nodded and finished, then stumbled back, quickly sitting down so he didn't pass out.

[...w h i s p e r...]

Essie quickly got up, walking to him as steadily as possible- which wasn't very steady. She balanced him with her hand. "Be careful," She sighed. She brought a hand to her forehead, wiping off sweat even though it was cool outside.

Ethan - 19 - Essie
He coughed and balanced against her. They were going to die soon, he knew it. He looked at Essie, took her hand, then started walking back in the direction of the compound.

[...w h i s p e r...]

Essie sighed, taking his hand. She wouldn't let him die, even if it meant killing herself.

Ethan - 19 - Essie
He tried his best not to stumble, but each step got harder and he realized they were too far away to make it. He looked up at the trees, maybe if he set them on fire...

[...w h i s p e r...]

Essie took a deep breath and took Ethan into her arms. "You're not going to die, not on my watch." She let her wings take over since they weren't poisoned. She flew out of the trees and into the air, protectively guarding Ethan with her body. Soon, her wings gave out out of weakness in midair. She curled her body around Ethan, then her wings, and plummeted to the ground.

Ethan - 19 - Essie
He held on for his life and closed his eyes, expecting the crash to kill both of them.

[...w h i s p e r...]

Essie hit the ground, feeling something pop in her back. She smiled a little, knowing Ethan was safe, and closed her eyes, releasing Ethan and laying flat on her back.

Ethan - 19 - Essie
He opened his eyes, still alive, and flipped over, grabbing Essie with wide eyes. He looked around, wishing he knew how to get help, or how to help her himself. He felt her pulse to make sure she was still alive.
