"H...h...help"

[Junichiro Akuro]

Blood poured freely from the open wound that had been slashed cleanly across the figures chest. He fighted to keep himself upright and away from losing consciousness but the light of the room was slowly drifting away and shadow and speckleld dots danced around the room. Blood coverd his white gown and his baggy silkish pants as he staggerd fowards along the wall wiping blood on the smooth surface as he went.

'Uhhhhghhh' He saild dully

He heard a belt of foot steps coming towards him and then blackness hit him, he felt himself slip from the wall and then hit the floor, the warmth of his blood and then...lights out.

[Sene Unty]

Sene had decided to walk around outside....his room was beginning to be a little stuffy. With a breath of air he made it to the courtyard just in time to see a man fall to the ground. Without thinking he dashed to the mans side and checked his pulse....

Still breathing. Good, but now he needed medical attention. As he attempted to hoist the man up, he sent out a warning to any Jedi in the area. He couldn't do this by himself.....

[Salemn Lysce]

She was in her quarters dusting the herb jars with a rag when she felt a disturbance in the Force. Someone was hurt badly, and within the Order's wall. Then, about five seconds later, she heard the mental cry of help ripple through the air. Dropping the rag to the floor, Salemn grabbed her herb pouch and shoved the door open, running down the hallways. Following the cry of help, it led her to the Recruitment Center, where she saw a Padawan of the Order helping a badly damaged man.

Immediately, she grasped the pouch's strings and pulled it open, reaching inside. Pulling out some foxglove, she went over to the man and opened his mouth, slipping the herb under his tongue. It would keep him alive and restore his energy, for foxglove was a powerful herb that was said to even bring back the dead. After that was done, she looked at the wound that had been slashed across his chest and sighed. It ran deep, and hopefully none of his organs had been damaged. It would need to be cleansed, inspected, then bandaged up - followed by more than a week's rest.

Placing her hands on his stomach, the Knight closed her eyes and concentrated, calling upon the Force. Drawing it inside, she then released it inside of him, letting it begin to mend his tissue. In only a matter of seconds, the wound wasn't deep anymore and Salemn removed her hands, feeling somewhat exhausted. She had only done this sort of thing once before, and hoped he would be fine.

[Junichiro Akuro]

The figure fell in and out of consciousness, seeing a young woman,then a man and then blackness again. He was no good on the floor like this...he would need proper medical care.

[Xazor Elessar]

Xazor placed her hands on her head as a torrent of pain rushed over her body. This had happened in the past, and only when someone nearby was hurt badly. She thought it a curse, though it was a blessing in disguise. The Knight's eyes wandered around the Recruitment Center and then came to rest upon Salemn and her Padawan, Sene Unty.....and then she spotted a man upon the floor. The Garou quickly ran over to group and then fell to her knees, placing her hand upon his forehead.

"What happened? Tell me, please!"

She pleaded with a group that was quickly gathering around him. None of the people seemed to know and it was not helping him any. The Knight closed her eyes and felt throughout his body....feeling every single tissue that had been damaged. It was more severe than what Salemn had originally thought....and now it had taken the man's consciousness away. Sighing to herself, Xazor placed both hands upon his temples and kept her eyes shut, then formed a temporary mental connection with the stranger.....as she began feeding her life Force into him accompanied by her Garou Healing Powers.....even more powerful than most medicine. This would bring him back, though it would drain her down greatly.....it would save his life and his wounds would not even leave scars.

[Salemn Lysce]

Looking up as the voice fell upon her ears, Salemn saw Xazor and grimaced slightly, which told the fellow Knight all she needed to know. He would not die, because of the foxglove and the tissue that was mended, but about his blood loss ...

< Xazor, he might need a blood transfusion - I'm really not quite sure. I'm not certain when his body might go into shock. >

Shaking her head slightly, she sighed and her brown eyes looked once more upon the man. He needed to be moved from the cold, hard floor into the med-bay.

[Xazor Elessar]

Xazor heard her words and nodded slightly, removing her hands from his body. A blood transfusion....she could give him one as Marcus had once done to her.

"I need blood packs now! Someone get them to me NOW!"

She demanded to one of the people standing nearby. The man she had yelled to was off in a flash to retrieve the blood packs. Attached to those where the small hoses and a needle.....all she would need.

Hold on.....you will live....I promise you that.

She said softly in the man's subconscious mind. It would only be a matter of a minute or so before the other would bring the blood packs to her. Then she could start the procedure and transport him to the med-bay.

[Junichiro Akuro]

The man felt his life force slipping away slowly,however much the Jedi tried he was dieing and slowly slipping away.His eyes went up into his eye lids and once again the man lost all and fell into darkness this time would he wake up again,or would ne find himself in the next life....who knew?...the Jedi did.

[Salemn Lysce]

If only they knew what had caused the slash. If it was by a rusty blade, surely he would need a tetanus shot - however, his voluntary muscles weren't spasming, so she doubted it was that.

< Xazor, we need to know if he's human before we do a blood transfusion, and then his blood type if he is ! >

The man who had been sent off had already promptly arrived with a bundle full of blood packs that were labelled, along with the small hoses and a kit of needles.

[Xazor Elessar]

The Knight fingered through the blood packs but was unsatisfied.

"Fine..."

She said with a short tone. From her weapons belt she pulled a dagger and took it to her right wrist...and with one swift movement, she slit it wide open, exposing a thick vein. From the man, she took a needle and tube, and stuck it in with a slight wince upon her face.

"I have universal blood.....I can give to all others but can only recieve from people with the same blood type as I."

She said softly as she took and inserted the needle into the man's arm. Soon blood was flowing out of her arm and through the tube, right into his arm. With each beat of her heart, more blood pulsed through the tube. Xazor felt a bit light headed as this continued, but she used the Force to remove that feeling....and to begin healing him. The blood would be enough to keep him alive without hurting Xazor.

"We should get him to the medbay....soon!"

[Junichiro Akuro]

He suddenly and alarmingly took a very deep gust of air into his lungs as Xazors blood was pumped into his body. The warm liquid started to make his whole body feel just that little bit warmer, and instead of darkness, came light as he opened his eyes to a mass of people crowding around him.

He opened his mouth to spurt three words that he only knew himself, that his attempted murderer had spoken just before he thought he killed him...his throat was full of blood..but he managed to gurgle the words out.

"K...K...Kasstra....Jeseth....Dark...Children in dan" he spurted yet more blood and his word were blocked before he could finish.

[Salemn Lysce]

She was about to object to Xazor when the other Knight went ahead anyways. Sighing slightly, Salemn could only watch. She didn't know if Xazor's "universal blood" would work well since she was a Garou, but time would tell.

Which it did.

The man opened his eyes, life flowing through his veins, and he attempted to speak which only resulted in a jumble of words and sputtering of blood. Immediately, Salemn reached down and helped him into a sitting position so he wouldn't choke. She had only been able to make out the words Kasstra, Jeseth, and Dark Children in Dan-, but that was where his words cut off.

< Go on. >

The man heard the mute's words in his head comfortingly as she looked into his dazed eyes. Kasstra she knew was the last name of Sieken, the former Knight of TSE and now Vega's little follower. Jeseth was Jeseth Cloak, but Children in Dan ..? She needed to hear more in order to help.

[Xazor Elessar]

Xazor helped Salemn prop the man up so that he wouldn't choke. He nearly got all of the words out and then they were cut off by blood rising into his throat. His lungs had been punctured and were letting blood into his airways.....but her healing powers were seeping into his body and fixing those injuries as well. The Knight was becomming drained and fast....but she was also using her mental powers.....to think. Children in dan.......children in.....

"Children in danger?!?!"

She cried out, her eyes opening wide as she said this. Jeseth Cloak and Sieken Kasstra.....two Darksiders and...children in danger. Her abilities as a Seer were weak...but she had to focus now and figure this out in case he could reveal no more....but hopefully he would give them more hints....

[Sene Unty]

Sene breathed a sigh of relieve when the man finally opened his eyes. He seemed to be doing better now, which was truly a blessing. Apparently Xazor's blood was indeed universal. Funny what he didn't know about his master.....he decided that later he would make it a point to learn more.

Now however was not the time. Now the man who had almost died in his arms was speaking.

Kasstra?

Jeseth?

The names didn't ring any bells in Sene's mind, but from the look on Xazor's face, they must be bad news.

Children in Danger! Oh man this was getting worse every second. Sitting back against a near by tree, Sene looked toward his Master for answers.

[Xazor Elessar]

Suddenly a tremendous wave shot through the Force and Xazor was knocked over in her place. The Knight hit her head on the floor and immediatly was knocked unconscious as her blood continued to flow to the man's body. Her eyes shut and remained so as she drifted off. Just as this happened, a great manifestation was made in her mind.....a scene was layed out in front of her. It was blurry at first, but it all came into focus as she set her gaze upon Jeseth Cloak....a Dark Jedi. He was standing near a door and when Xazor turned her eyes from his place, she saw a great deal of Children....in a class room. She knew this place, a school in Lower Coruscant. A place where Children came to learn and receieve proper educations. Her eyes became fixed upon Sieken Kasstra....apprentice to Vega Van Derveld, both of which were also Dark Jedi. He was saying something to a little girl whom he had entranced by words that she could not make out at the moment.

As this scene was playing out in her subconscious mind, Xazor began to wraith upon the ground in violent convulsions. The tube was nearly ripped from her arm as she flailed about, and then suddenly stopped. She was unaware of this happening as the situation unfolded before her 'eyes'. These children were in danger and she knew it....something felt terribly wrong about this. The Knight shook her head, in this vision, and stepped up to Jeseth, to tell him that he was doing wrong to these innocent children. Just as she opened her mouth, though, he moved forward and stepped right through her. She was shocked beyond belief, but then it hit her.....this was not real in her physical realm. Suddenly as this happened, her eyes shot open and she gasped for air.....as if she had been shut off from oxygen. The Knight had no idea what was going on and she laid down, bringing her free hand up to rest upon her heart as it raced inside of her chest. This was the first time a vision had ever come to her....and she knew now that it would not be the last....

[Salemn Lysce]

Silently she watched as Xazor's body violently compulsed on the floor, frowning. She could sense that she was fine, but it did worry her a bit. When Xazor stopped, Salemn made sure that the tube was firmly in place and then placed a hand on the man's forehead. It was a bit warm, but that was to be expected.

< Tell us more .. Junichiro. >

She had dug into his mind and brought out his name, as if to reassure him that it would be fine now. The Jedi would take the matter in their hands and he would recover quickly.

[Sene Unty]

Sene watched with growing horror as his master fell to the ground and began convulsing. It took everything in him to not reach out to her and calm her, but he knew there was no chance of that. She was having a vision, that much was clear. He couldn't help her now.....

Finally she stopped and seemed to calm down considerably. Through the force Sene could hear Salemn's plea to the man named Junichiro. He too wanted to know more.....
