Gifts and Curses

Aña: *after several hours* A-aden?

Aden stops, panting slightly. "Yes, Aña?"

Aña: c...can we...we stop? *feels bad for asking because she hasn't been the one running even*

Aden nods. "Sure."

Aña: th...thank you

Aden: You're welcome. *he sits down*

Aña: *rolls onto her side and whimpers slightly... She has lost even more weight since he had last seen her... She still has a hand pressed where the rock had hit her*

Aden: What happened to your side?

((Uuummmm i hope you're not talking about tortuga, because if you are, you need to reread it's description))

Aña: I... I got hit w...with something...

((Arg... Then how do they get there?))

((Well, they're already in tunnels, just have them walk for a day to reach the coastline, then sail to Tortuga))

((Ok... So they have to use the tunnels to get to the coast... Got it))

Aden: What was it?

Aña: it....it was dark... I...I didn't see... But... it hurt..

Aden: Okay.

Aña: *nods and closes her eyes... Her face looks as if she is in pain and her stomach rumbles... She shifts her hand from her side and flinches at the sight of blood on her hand... She quickly replaces her hand*

Dustin: can I ask you somthing?

Aden: Here. *he hands her a bite of bread after hearing her stomach growl* I'm sorry, but I don't have any more. Are you bleeding?

Aña: *looks up at him... She nods slightly as she takes the bread with her free hand*

Aden: I don't know what to do. You'll have to wait till we get to tortuga.

Aña: *nods... She takes the bit of bread and eats it slowly... Then shifts still holding her side* i... I'm sorry

Aden: What for?

Aña: a...a lot of things... The knife... I... I got caught and then they found out my last name.... I... I didn't know that... That they would go after you just because I sId my name... I.. I didn't mean to get you in trouble... They... They kept asking me who... Who had hurt me but... I.. I didn't tell them... They... They were going to... To leave me in jail till they found out... But I didn't tell them... But... I messed up...

Aden: I forgive you for the knife, but I didn't know you told the police your name. They didn't find me, but that's why we were moving so fast, so they wouldn't catch us.

Aña: *nods... She stares at the ceiling her eyes still a bit glassy...*

((Meap... Bob? Your character Andrew in camp hb works in the med area some right?))

Aden: *sits there, staring at the wall*

((Probably.))
