Crystal Lake

[nobody1123]

This lake is filled with pure water. There is a legend that these waters can heal the wounded.

She sat down gazing at the lake "Its beautiful...."  

[nobody1123]

She hums to herself...she wanted to sing out but she didn't wasnt anyone to hear her singing....She was really shy about that one thing...

After the run-in at the gym, topped with some drama, Adalia found herself at the side of a lake. It seemed quieter here and a lot less occupied. Maybe here she could clear her head--something she had wanted to do earlier. As she folded her legs to sit down on after kicking her shoes off, she simply sighed with relief. Yes, here she could probably relax. Well, for a while at least. With the way of things around this place, from what she could already tell, her quiet would most likely be interrupted within just a few minutes.

Shutting her eyes, Ada laid back, stretching out her legs so that her toes dipped into the edge of the water and reached her arms up above her head. It felt good to stretch, to feel the crisp air envelope her, and to hear the birds around her singing in harmony. Though her eyes were shut, she could visualize the surrounding. The towering trees, the rustling bushes, the tiny bugs zipping around, and the water rippling into tiny waves with the small breeze caressing her cheek.

'Great,' Ada whispered to herself, feeling her body slowly relax. At least here she could do as she pleased without interrupting somebody's routine.

Fenix headed up the dirt path to the lake, figuring he could finish this day up with a light jog. He had never been up to this lake before, and after his confrontation with the red-haired kid, now seemed as good as any of a time to check it out.
As he neared the end of the path, he looked back behind him. He could have just jogged now, but he was almost there, and a walk seemed just as well.
As he came into view of the lake, Fenix spotted the blue-haired girl he was helping with the treadmill earlier. Instead of coming to her and bothering her with questions and talk, Fenix nodded to her, giving a small wave.
With no other response, nor sign of shyness, Fenix ripped his shirt off and wrapped it around a tree limb. He then set off around the lake, planning to give the girl her space and to be quiet enough to not bother her too much.

The black wolf sprinted through the trees,half blinded by the blood gushing from its left eye.It came to a stop at the edge of a lake.It stood there for a moment,panting before turning its head to the sky and holwling so loudly that the mournful,pain filled sound carried across the lake and forest  

[ComradetheMedic]

As Fenix was rounding the lake for the first time, He heard the howl. Coming to a slow stop, Fenix looked around, his chest rising and falling visibly. Seeing the wolf, Fenix paused by a tree, silently watching it.
Seeing blood drip to the ground, Fenix stared, wondering what this wolf could want now and if he should help it.
After a moment, he walked out from behind the tree and approached the wolf.  

[konaustin]

The wolf turned to face the boy,its red eyes locked on him.
It growled and bared its fangs,ready to go on the offensive.  

[ComradetheMedic]

Fenix froze, looking at the wolf.
"I'm not here to hurt you," He muttered, staring at the wolf's injured eye. He gingerly pointed to it. "That looks like it hurts." He tried a smile, even if it was a weak one. "I can help you.." He said, still not moving from where he was on the shore.  

[konaustin]

The wolf eased up slightly,still panting.Its right forelimb began to tremble,it managed to right itself but collapsed a second later breathing heavily  

[ComradetheMedic]

As the wolf collapsed, Fenix cursed loudly and dove into the shadow of a tree. He didn't have much time; He figured wolves had less blood than a human, and the wolf had already collapsed. He traveled in and out of shadows, searching high and low.
He came back to the wolf, holding a variety of herbs and leaves. He didn't bother with asking permission; If the wolf decided to snap at him, he'd strike back.
Using a nearby stone and his fist, Fenix crushed some nettles into a fine paste, gritting his teeth as the sharp spines bit at his skin. By the time the paste was made, he could feel his hand swelling. He turned to the wolf.
"This is gonna hurt," He warned before he applied the paste around the wolf's injured eye. "But it'll numb your eye so I can work a little more easily with you." And with that, Fenix lapsed into silence, washing leaves in the water of the lake and settling them gently across the eye, doing so one handed, for his other hand had swollen to a more than useless size.  

[konaustin]

The wolf sat up suddenly and bounded abound the boy like a puppy  

[ComradetheMedic]

Fenix jumped as the wolf barked. Seeing his handy-work go to waste as the wolf bounced around, he sighed, standing up.
"Well I guess you're better now.." He said questionably. Shrugging, he watched the wolf for a little more, then turned and began to walk away, ready to jog again. He looked down at his hand and tsked at it. "All for nothing.." He muttered sullenly.  

[konaustin]

Jeice appeared without warning in front of Fenix,hands in pockets and his eye sealed shut with paste  

[ComradetheMedic]

As Fenix looked up from his hand, he saw the red-haired kid. Instantly, Fenix clenched his good hand to a fist, staring at the kid before him.
"The hell?" He demanded. "Did you follow me here?" He demanded again. Seeing his eye sealed shut, Fenix blinked, his fist uncurling some.
"...You're the wolf?" He asked, peering at the red-haired kid.
