I tumble down the side of the cliff, winded too much to scream. I can hear Lake yelling but I can't do anything to stop. Thumping onto the ground again and again, I finally slow to a halt. Lake rushes over to me. "COPPER!! Oh no, are you ok!?!?" I groan and blink open my eyes. "Hmmm... Lake?" His worried face looms over me and my face gets hot. "You look so cute right now, Lake..." She blushes and says, "Y-your in shock. Can you stand up?" I nod and struggle to my feet, only to shriek and collapse onto Lake as my ankle flares with pain and buckles underneath me. "Copper!! Is it your ankle?" I nod, gritting my teeth. Lake lowers me to the ground. "I'm going to get you some water, i'll be right back." He gets up and quickly finds the old bucket that we found in the roots of a tree while we were exploring a few days ago. She fills it with water and brings it over to me, than carefully pushes me into a sitting position and lowers my foot into it. The cool water soothes me and I smile. "I know who to get. My friend, Hawk, knows a lot about natural healing. Ill go get them!! Stay here!!" I grin. "Not a lot else I could do. Haere ra!" He bounds off into the bush and I lean back against the totera she put me at the base of.
mmhmm romantic tension >:3333
