Talon watched Star run off for a minute and then starting to chase after her. Anko reluctantly followed, leaping over the large puddles of water while Talon ran through them, further soaking his shoes and the bottom of his pants. But, once again, he didn't care. All that mattered was trying to find where Terra and her father were.

"Everyone's here already. Looks like we're late to the party, Anko."

Talon grinned at the Sneasel, and the creature nodded in concurrence. By the looks of things, Talon figured that Pokemon attacks weren't going to work on this guy. So, instead of tossing forward a bunch of Pokeballs, he reached into his kunai pouch and closed his hands around three of the knives.

"Hope this works."

Talon muttered to himself as he flawlessly hurled the three knives towards the man with precision aim. Unless something went horribly wrong, they would hit the mark exactly as planned.
 
The man scowled as he was attacked by more than one person.
"I see've you've got friends to help you this time."
He said angerly.
"No matter, I'll come for you another time."
He said slashing her in the side with a blade, then letting her fall to the ground.
He was hit with the knives Talon had throne, but the seemed to blend in with the shadows and vanish.
 
Talon growled at the man as he seemed to fade away in the darkness, barely even fazed by the knives that he had thrown. Not only did it anger him that he had just lost three perfectely good kunai's, but also that the man had escaped. After seeing how he acted, Talon deduced that the man would be back to try and finish Terra off.

"Are you okay?!"

Talon asked, walking forward and kneeling beside Terra. Before disappearing, her father had dealt a final blow so Talon asking that quesiton was 'probably' pointless. How could she -not- be okay? Exactly.
 
{Talon, really. Does she look okay? She's on the ground bleeding. I'm mean really.}
Star said going over to Terra and Talon.
Terra winced in pain as she tried to move.
Her side just hurt so much.
"See why, we should've left earlier, Star?"
She said very softly, almost to soft to hear.
 
Ari came skidding around the corner her sister being lifted of the ground behind her Toby followed Ari smacked right into Scortch and the smaller girl went flying Toby ran ahead and the small girl landed on him
"Again Again" she screamed. "No" Toby said sharply "good puppy" was the girls
only reply before walking over to Talon "do you like Kitty" she said randomly
to Talon...Ari untangled her self from Scotch Scortch turned around Ari lunged at him but then stopped and looked horrified at his hands
"w-w-what did you get into this time Scortch" she asked rather confused...
 
OOC: Ginger, your PM box is full!

IC: Star looked up at Ari and sighed.
{Sure, rush right to the flaming chicken instead of the bleeding wounded girl on the ground.}
She muttered angerly.
{All he did was attack Terra's father. Terra is the one that got hurt!}
 
ooc: I'll empty it

Ari was fuming "he is not a chicken he's not even flaming right now SO COOL
IT YOU..." she was about to say something more but when Scortch
leaned down to the girl she decided she best shut up
or Scortch would probly shut her up for her.
 
Terra looked up at the Blaziken with fear.
{Careful! Don't hurt her!}
Star said jumping when he bent down next to her.
Terra let out a groan from the pain.
 
"Well, yeah, I guess..."

Talon muttered in response to what Star had said. Although he felt really bad for Terra, he had absolutely no idea what to do. He had learned a couple things during his training about medicine and treating wounds, but he had blocked out most of it because it was so boring and uninteresting to him. Now he wished that he had payed more attention.

Although Talon wasn't sure if this was the right thing to door not, he tore off a piece of cloth from a big roll in his sack and pressed it against Terra's wound, hoping maybe to wipe away the blood. After finishing, he set to work on tying it.
 
Terra winced as the wound was touched by the cloth.
{Talon...do you know what you're doing?}
Star asked looking over at him.
The bleeding slowed.
{Careful, don't want to hurt her.}
Star then said.
 
"Well, umm..."

He muttered, not wanting to tell Terra that he had no clue what he was doing but now wanting to lie to her either. He struggled between the two options in his mind before finally coming up with a conclusion after a matter of seconds.

"Uhh, a little bit, I guess.."

He said, nervously, quickly withdrawing the cloth to his lap to make sure that he wouldn't do anything that could possibly harm Terra more than she already was.

"Maybe someone else better do this..."
 
{Lift her carefully and wrap it around the wound tightly.}
Star said simply.
{He really did it this time. Normally he just whips her till she bleeds and cries.}
"H-He didn't have his whip w-with him that's why."
Terra said softly.
 
Talon nodded and reached down, wrapping the cloth around the wound and tying it in a small knot. Not so much that it would hurt, just so that it would stay tight and not loosen and fall off.

Anko shrugged and crossed her arms again, lookig around at everyone that was there. Mike and Jen seemed to be just standing there like idiots, while their Pokemon stood beside them, mouth agape. The Sneasel sneered, glancing down at Talon, Terra, and Star.

"Now, does it feel any better?"

Talon said, standing back up and offering his hand to help Terra up. He smiled weakly and looked around, his blood red eyes focusing in on every little detail of the scenery.
 
Terra grabbed onto his hand and pulled herself up to her feet.
At first she nearly fell back down, but she was able to get her balance back just in time.
"T-Thanks."
Terra said not looking at Talon.
"I'm fine now..."
She then said.
{Terra! What did I say earlier!? I said that you would say that you're alright even when you belong in a hospital.}
Star sighed.
 
Talon nodded, his eyes traveling down to exchange a quick look with Anko. The Pokemon nodded her head towards where they had come from, signaling that she figured it was time to depart again. Talon knew that Anko was very eager to leave. She never had liked being around other people for a minute, let alone for how long they had been here.

"I guess it's time for us to leave again. Everything's finished here..."

He muttered, nodding at Anko and turning to the side, about to start walking away.(Aww, so sad~)
 
"B-Bye."
Terra stammered befoire turning to the others, quickly thanking them, and then starting to walk the opposite way.
Star scowled and shook her head.
{You guys! you're just so quick to turn and leave.}
She muttered as she walked with Terra.
Terra was thinking and wasn't listening to a single word Star said.
 
The small girl walked over to Talon and said "hey Mr. you like that lady don't
you Mr." Scotch stood next to Terra he glared at Star then smiled at Terra
"you should be thankful to that young man it was nice of him to help you"
Scortch replied.
 
"I-I am."
Terra stammered.
"T-Thanks to you too."
She added before starting to walk with Star again.
{W-We better get going.}
Star then said.
 
"W-w..what? Do you mean Terra?"

Talon asked, his words stuttering as he turned around and glanced curiously at the girl that stood in front of him. He wasn't sure if he had heard her right, but once he was sure that he had he really had no idea what to say.

{No, he doesn't! Talon doesn't like anyone..}

Anko exclaimed angriy, not even giving Talon a chance to say anything. The Sneasel wanted the girl to understand what was up. Talon had never really liked anyone before, so the creature assumed that now was so different. But now, after seeing how Talon had acted, Anko wasn't was sure.
 
Terra walked silently, the only sounds around her was the soft sound of the rain.
"Star...d-do you think I'll end up like Mother one day?"
Terra then asked stopping.
{What!?}
Star yelled out of shock.
"The only reason I lived was because I was around people...I might not be so lucky next time."
She said.
{Terra! I'm surprised that you said that!}
Star exclaimed.
