A Second Chance on a New Life

Edward?

From:

-=eyes widen. Dammit, he thought he had this on private.=-

It's Havoc's fox, Colonel. Kit.

From:

Right. Hope's been pining for her.

You should get her to someone who could heal her.

From:

Really? You think so?

Thanks for your direction, I couldn't have figured it out without you.

From:

[HAVE A SIGH.]

No, they do say that the average genius has little to no common sense.

See if you can move her onto your coat and carry her in that?

From:

Why the hell do you think I was trying to get a hold of Winry, eh? Use those powers of observation once in a while.

-=but he's shifting sounds nearby, and there's a yip and a whine.=-

Sorry, girl.

From:

Perhaps I should have said 'as a matter of urgency' I forgot about your inability to read between the lines.

[There's a little silence when Ed moves, and he winces himself at the sound.]

Gently, Edward.

From:

Yeah, well, you're not looking at what I'm looking at. -=there's a reason why it's on voice.=-

Come on, girl.. we'll get you patched up. -=there's a clap of his hands and the sound of alchemic burn as something's transmuted.=-

From:

Will you be taking her to Unohana's?

From:

My place is closer, right now. I don't think she'd make it there, anyway.

From:

[There's the sound of movement on his end, like someone pulling on their coat.]

Send me the houses' co-ordinates privately I'll see if I can get someone to you.

From:

-=growls softly.=-

[Private]

[x,y]

From:

You found Kit...? Oh, good, I was worried.

...

She's...oh! Try bundle her in your coat as best you can and carry her, gently, over here, or is the clinic closer? I could meet you there, I'm not sure of your co-ordinates, Ed.

From:

No, home's closer. -=his voice is tight.=-

I'll try to get there as soon as I can. There... really isn't anything here to be useful.

From:

All right then, I'll be waiting here and get the medical supplies ready for when you get here.

From:

Right. Be there soon.

-=and in a few minutes he's there with Kitten on a flat board, tied down with his coat as gently as it can be.=-

Here. What do you want me to do?

From:

Put her down there, [Winry pointed to the table which she had cleared for just this purpose as she tied on an apron.] And I'll have a look...

From:

-=does as he's told, untying his coat to show the broken body of the fox.=-

....

-=It definitely didn't look good. There were slash marks and lacerations as well as a broken tail what looked like a shattered hind leg. And she was missing part of an ear, the same side of her face that was swollen so badly her eye was shut.=-

[[injuries may change if Havoc-mun wants them changed.]]

From:

[She set to work, composing her features after the initial expression of worry and upset, concentrating on the leg and tail before she moved to inspect the slashes and lacerations. Just what had happened to the poor Kit? She was not used to treating animals, though she knew basics of medical care and had helped Granny with Den a couple of times.]

From:

-=He stands there, hands stuffed in his pockets. He's not quite looming, but he really has no idea what he should be doing to help, or if Winry would even want the help.=-

From:

al_truism

[Heads in with some hot water in a pan, and clean cloths. His breath hisses inward at one look at the poor thing, and he blinks, very fast, before disappearing again to get the sewing kit and a razor. The areas where she'd hurt will need to be shaved, and stitches, she'll need quite a lot.]

From:

exarmatio

[Negi ducks through the doorway just as Al leaves again, giving him a slight, worried look as he slips past. But when he sees the kit, laying helpless, injured, broken... He takes in a sharp breath, hesitantly approaching the table as he tries to steel his expression.]

From:

[Winry continues to treat the fox, occaisonally asking Ed to pass her something, thanking Al for the water and cloths, not quite looking up as Negi entered, too concentrated on the fox.]

From:

-=He's silent the entire time, moving when Winry asks for something, and it otherwise keeps out of the way. And... it's getting crowded in this room.=-

From:

[The return audio comes a few minutes later, what Jean does in his own time is his own. This time it was compose himself. Hearing that poor Kitten was so bad off that Ed was afraid to move her makes him queasy to hear.

If there were a god in Jean's opinion he'd be thanking him her or it. Or they.]

Kitten...
Thankyou so much Boss, for findin' her..

From:

-=Sigh. There's the sound of crunching-they're footsteps as he's trying to reach the house.=-

Yeah, no problem, Jean. You shouldn't be on this, though. People are going to beat you up for doing shit.

From:

[Jean's voice drops a little, the walking was comforting and at the same time it frightened him - but he reminded himself that if Ed wasn't careful and just walked instead of ran he could hurt her. Not that she was as good as gone because he was walking.]

I.. I just had t'say thank you..

Edited Date: 2010-03-14 11:06 pm (UTC)

From:

When you can walk your own ass over here, you can thank me, alright?

-=still walking, his voice just a little tense.=-

From:

[There's a small attempt at a sound that could be maybe called a chuckle, but it's not much of anything. He's still learned his lesson about laughing - and didn't much feel like doing too many stints of laughing with Kitten this injured.

Not only that, but he figured he'd tell Ed later just how long and how many treatments that 'walk' would be. He'd still do it though, just because he's determined.]

Yeah well, I guess I'm gonna have t' do that.... Gotta collect my girl after all..

From:

Yeah, yeah, I know one of these days you're going to drag your ass out here.

I'm gonna go, Jean, I'm there. Talk to you later, alright?

From:

Yeah, 'course Boss.
I'll be here.. And Kitten? ..You ...Y'Just behave, now.

[And that's the end of that.]

From:

al_truism

... I'll have some hot water ready.

From:

Kay. -=thinking wtf, she's not in labor=-

[[there's an offline somewhere above~]]

From:

al_truism

[Hot water to bathe the wounds and clean up some of that blood. And he'll be heading into that.]

From:

exarmatio

...found who, Edward?

From:

One of Havoc's kits.

From:

exarmatio

Mr. Jean has a fox?

I-is she going to be alright? She's...not too badly hurt, right?
