*The stallion too came, but he cantered, and with a very large limp, favoring his left front ankle, not hiding it. He breathed heavily, as if he had run around the world in one hour when in fact he had only been a few terra's away, and only cantering, so this was verry worrisome. You then notice his before buckskin hide. It was now all over caked red blood, in Dog Soldiers own blood, especially on his face. His own wounds were many too. A big gash with blood spilling from it on his neck, a large wound that had caked a soft still forming scab on his rump, his left front ankle was very swollen, nearly twice the normal size, and for that he limped. He also had a large piece of flesh missing from his right shoulder about a half foot long, his crest about middle was bitten so hard it had cut halfway through both sides, leaving that chunk of crest there by only a little, and many more scrapes, bruises, and large gashes or wounds, too numerous to even dare count. He comes up, his ice blue eyes of blindness too forign on such a red bloody face and pelt. He looked from Daughter of Time to Dog Soldiers. Unlike most, he was ashamed to be seen by Dot looking the way he was, seeing as when she had last seen him he wasn't blind, was all peace, no war, had helped DOL in the Queen to be Tournament, and talked and make friends with her. Now she sees him, all bloody from head to toe, and the dealer of Dog Soldiers fate. He then goes up to them both closer and looks Dog Soldiers in the eyes.*

I will try to track her down for you Dog Soldiers. It would be the least I could do, for....

*His voice drifts off, and you notice it wasn't as before. It was now more like a tad raspy, like someone you'd expect came from the underworld and back. He then looks to Daughter of Time. His old friend from his younger older colt days.*

I'm so ashamed you have to see me like this Daughter of Time. Not only because we're friends but also because...I'm the back-up...

*His voice fades off with those words. He had been fighting and did not know she was the queen.*

I know the in-training queens have the temporary power to heal, and since DOL healed me from the time I went down the waterfall saving those two foals, I know it weakens. And for doing this to this stallion, I am sorry, as it will affect you.

*He then stops speaking, actually more worried to get Dog Soldiers healed so he could last another week then his own life. Although Dog Soldiers was an evil, Xiaoyu was never ever the type to put himself in front of others, for his priorities he was the last on the list. Because of this, he was blind, scarred up, and always had at least one sore ankle.*

Sterling fae gasped with horror as she saw the blood-stained mascue approaching. Tears welled within her sapphire orbs, though she refused to let them fall. Her ebony/ivory locks cascaded down a perfectly arched crest, their dance now over, their silence a solemn tribute. As he came closer, she realized it was Xiaoyu, her childhood friend. Moving slightly nearer, she looked him over. His wounds were hideous. Hearing his words, she stepped betwixt the two. Her azure pools now sharp, her tone cool and commanding.

"No, Xiaoyu. I will not allow you to do this in such a state. I can help you, but only if you are willing."

She flicked one ear back to Dog Soldiers, having only now realized that he had granted her permission to aid him even a little. Turning towards him, she lowered her ash-tinted mug and brushed it against his bloodied boa, coming to rest on his sloping withers. A cool sensation flooded through his masculine frame, soothing the hurt, numbing the pain. After several moments, she released her hold and stepped back, slightly weakened from her first true healing, though she would never show it.

"There, your wounds have been closed over, your strength restored. In a sevenday, your scars will break and bleed, just as they did a moment ago. When that happens, it is up to you whther to live or die. I place the choice in your hands. Until then, I give you rein to search for her, as long as you allow me to send someone with you."

Having spoken her piece to the bloodied boar, she turned once more to Xiaoyu, her features softening ever so slightly.

"Xiaoyu, are you alright?"

Knowing that he obviously wasn't, she sighed. She could do nothing without his consent, and so she waited.
