Jurek made his way to Kira's tent, limping somewhat by the time he got there.
"Jurek, what are you doing here?" an elderly woman said, sitting up.
"I found an... Androsy-whatsit... out in the dessert... his group got eaten by the sand worms, and one scratched me as I got him out of there."
he sat down and showed her the scratch.
"oh dear, that's deep, we'll need an elixir..." she sighed.
"no not one of those, those hurt." he sighed.
"I'm sorry dear, but it's the only way to completely clean the wound and heal it." Kira stood up, hunched over slightly from age as she called for assistance, two men walking in and then she grabbed the elixir.

*Zack watched them curiously and a little awkwardly, feeling rather out of place...*

The men held onto Jurek to keep him still as Kira opened the vial of elixir.
Jurek shivered slightly in anticipation, and then the liquid in the vial was poured on Jurek's wound and he yelled, starting to fight as she continued pouring it.
"hold him." she said calmly, and the men held on tight, making sure his leg didn't move even though Jurek continued to fight, wings flapping rapid fire.

*Zack flinched, closing his eyes tightly and looking away... He'd heard too many screams that day and he was the only one that had managed to avoid being hurt or killed... He tried to block it out but he couldn't, shaking his head almost violently.* "Stop it! Stop hurting him!"

"I can't dear, this is the best way to heal the wound. If you don't like his yelling then cover your ears, because this is just cleansing it, it's worse when it heals the skin..." she said, finishing pouring the elixir on the cut, and then helping to hold Jurek as he tried to get away, though his struggles were in vain.

*Zack covered his ears firmly with his hands, his eyes squeezed shut, but he just couldn't block it out, totally freaking...* "STOP IT! Do something!"

"I'm sorry but we can't... it'll be over soon enough..." she said as she saw the skin start to heal.
A few tears fell from Jurek's eyes, his leg jerking at the burning pain.
He let out a loud cry as the last bit of skin healed, making it seem as if the wound had never even occured save for a slight pink coloring to the skin.
The men set him down and he lay there shivering slightly as Kira pat his head.
"there, it's over now and the wound's gone completely."

*Zack was shaking like a leaf by the time it was all over, screams still ringing in his head... He buried his face in his hands, finding it difficult to breathe.*

"boy... are you all right?" Kira walked over to him and rested her hand on his shoulder.

*Zack immediately flinched away, swatting her hand away from him.* "Don't touch me!" *He backed away from them all, his eyes briefly and fearfully falling on Jurek.*

"honey... please calm down... here, I'll make you some tea and you can relax, tell me what brought you here." she gently lead him inside before going to start boiling some water.

*Zack was still shaking, his eyes frequently glancing back at Jurek...* "I-Is he going to be all right...? Don't leave him alone..."

"It doesn't seem worth it..." *Zack stared at Jurek, a frown on his lips.*

"not usually, but that was a deep wound, I wouldn't have been able to clean it sufficiently, and if it had gotten infected we would have had to cut the wound open, if not he could have lost his leg... this pain now is worth it to save from pain later."
