Pain was exploding in the lower part of her body. Her head sung with an ache and she had to groan. Front paws moved into the ground and then she stopped as the pain became ten fold right in her side. A whine of pain left her as those starry blue eyes opened to look around.
No one was around as she could tell, and the forest was quiet, save for the occasional bird chirping quietly. Galaxia lifted her head to look over what had happened and gave a tight frown. The tree was heavy and laying down on the forest floor as if it were there teh entire time. Her only saving grace was part of the log and a few rocks that were keeping the thing up some to prevent her from being completely squished. But she was trapped.
She tried to wiggle her way out and hissed as something stretched and pulled wrong. Again she tried but then had to stop. She was panting, tired already. A whine left her as she recalled accidentally bumping into the dead thing and that's when it crashed down. Right across her. She'd been too slow to move and now she was pinned beneath it.
She licked her lips and tilted her head back, letting out a howl. Galaxia needed help and fast. [/color][/size] |

Shishu was in the middle of troubled sleep when he heard it. He woke up with a jolt, his fur standing on end, those red, sunken eyes wide. His mate was in trouble, and though she was probably across the vast expanse of land, her cries were loud enough to reach his ears.
"Oh no," he choked through heaving breaths as he made a wild, heart-pounding dash towards her cries. "No, no, no... Gods no, please..."
He would never say anything in the name of the gods themselves, but in this case, he knew he had to put his trust on Them. In his wild and crazed imagination, he thought he heard a rustle of wings above him. Had Manu, the god of death, come to claim her life? He would not allow it. He snarled so loud that his throat hurt.
His paws were very sore, but he pressed on, his chest in pain. His dry mouth hung wide open, tongue flopping about weakly. If he should lose her... his whole life revolved around her... yeah, he was pretty whipped, but he was fine with this.
Oh gods, he thought, feeling his stomach drop like a thousand-pound stone. There she was, in serious pain. Lacking any real power, he could only rely on physical strength. "Shhhh... I'm here. Hang on. You need to. Try to relax and stop moving," he ordered, growling in frustration as he tried to find a spot around her to properly get this thing off of her. He was swearing under his breath as he circled. It needed to come off of her as soon as possible, before she too breaks under the weight.
"What I'm going to do is try to lift it off of you. Understand? If I can lift it just a few inches, maybe you can try to crawl out."
With that, he buried his nose underneath the tree, and tried to crawl underneath it. He could already feel the immense pressure it offered, but he had no choice. With all his might, he groaned and grunted, and tried to pull up. It was harder than he thought. He was no superwolf. And yet... there was no room for mistakes. One wrong move could fatally harm his mate.

He stared down at the wolves, his whole body aching as if he'd been wearing lead clothes, but also aching to help the two wolves.
He smelled like one, he knew, having only just finished the reverse change, back to human shape.
"Dammit all! She needs help!"
"Leave her, the world needs less Siklas"
He made his mind up, leaning to the side and tipping his body off of the branch he had been crouching on, landing on all fours and using the landing position to leap to the male's side.
"Shut up and do as I say, when I lift the tree, jam a branch under it, I'll make sure she lives to bite my leg off if she sees fit." he says, using the common tongue and hoping the wolf could understand the average human idiot. He wraps one arm firmly around the trunk and crouching, ready to lift.
"Once you jam it in, I'll hold it steady while you pull her out, deal?"

[glow=navy,2,300]Vyrn blinked silently into exsistance in the shadow of the same tree the lycanthrope had dropped from, glancing around uneasily. Normally he would not venture any distance at all into pack-controlled lands, but that day he had strayed closer to Shinkou's border than he had meant to, and thus had heard the female's cry.
Despite seeing full well the extent of her injuries, he hung back for a moment, uncertain of approaching the Alpha, uninvited on his home turf, even if he was there to offer his healing spells. Then, his eyes averted respectfully, he stepped forward.
"I am capable of healing the worst of her injuries, pack-master, if you will permit me."[/glow] |

It was sad not knowing if your cry for help went unheard or not. She wanted to move, but conserving her strength just in case seemed so much more important. Fear was lacing through her as well as panic. Could she make it out of this alive or would someone eventually find her body broken beneath the weight of the tree?
Galaxia sniffled, pressing down tears. Itdidn't matter, soon tears were wetting the blue fur beneath her eyes. But then she heard movement and her head turned. Relief flooded through as the first to arrive was her mate. Her very own. She almost choked on a sob. He was just as worried and she watched as prepared to try to move it. At least if this was the end, she wouldn't be dying alone.
That thought soon died before more were joining and the tears came harder. They had heard. The gods above had answered her prayers and had rescued her. She hoped at least. [/color][/size] |

Who the hell was this [grrr]er? Shishu struggled to speak, his voice strained with his muscles. Obviously he didn't cope too well with stress. "Hey asshole, whoever you are, if I move this it'll surely crush her, so why don't YOU get the branch or just help me lift this shit off of her! The more time we waste, the more it's killing her, goddammit!" In his frustration, he rose his voice to the next wolf who offered his services in a calmer demeanor than Shishu liked.
"Can't you SEE that she actually needs this thing OFF of her first BEFORE she gets healed?" Because wouldn't it be kind of pointless to heal her now? This was maddening!

Another day roaming the Shinkou's borders...well, another boring that is. That's the thing with being one who patrol's a lands borders. There were on days and then there were off days; the latter seemed to happen much more often. Okamiimaru had chosen to take a quick break and sat under a tree somewhere in the Kohai Forest. This short break eventually drew out and turned into a lazy mope. Lying down, Oki had found some sticks and started to break them into equal size pieces and stacked them up so they created a teepee type structure, like he was about to build a fire. Running out of sticks, he fit the rest of them on top of the structure and tried to make them balance. Failing a few times, he let them fall one last time and sighed at his boredom. His cheek rested on one of his forearms as he lied there, debating on whether to get back up or not. A whiny voice in his head kept complaining he was too tired and bored to do anything.
With a claw he flicked his well built structure to it fell down. Just as he did that, a desperate and quite loud howl echoed throughout the valley. It shot a shiver up his spine, startling him a little. Processing the message, it sounded like someone was in trouble. "Finally some excitement!", Oki enthusiastically said aloud to himself. Bouncing to his feet and with a powerful flap of his wings, he ascended above the canopy of the forest and made his way towards where the howl originated.
Finding the commotion, three others have already found what the call of distress was about. Falling to the ground, he landed with a dull thump in the grass, several meters where he saw the female who was trapped under a very large tree that had fallen onto her. No doubt she was the one who sent the signal. Closer now, he recognized one of those present, "Cercius!", he said to himself, shocked and glad at the same time to see him here. Even with him and the other two present, he was unsure if they could get the tree lifted. At this time, they seemed to be debating of how to get the tree off of her. However, without hesitation, eletrical sparks erupted around Oki's form and then quickly dissipated to reveal his anthro form. Darting over to where the tree was, he sided himself with Cercius and got under the tree. Unbuckling his sword strap, he tossed it to the ground beside him. Pressing his shoulders onto the bottom of the trunk, he placed his forepaws so he could push up so most of the weight rested on his shoulders so he could use his legs and arms to get the tree off of her body. The tree started to creak and whine, but it barely budged, "Just push, guys! Do what you think is best to get this tree off!", his voice was strained. This was about as far as he could get and couldn't push forever so he hoped the others would do their part. Of course his arrival was abrupt, but in this situation, he preferred to do then ask questions later. [/blockquote][/size] ((Ba-da-da-DUUUMMM! It's SUPER Oki!!! :D)) |

"Oki!" Cercius calls, glad to see a familiar face, ignoring the incessent growls of Shishu, who was obviously stressed
"Obviously weak."
and he instead turns to him with a patient glare.
"Okiimaru and I are going to lift this tree, you are going to get her out while we hold it, do it fast or you'll lose her." he says cooly, his green eyes flashing with a kind of cold assertiveness that would probably earn him a bite in any other situation.
"Voh doth oh Stróntar Draegga..."
"Shut up! You're not in control of me!"
"I don't have to be right now... But soon..."

[glow=navy,2,300]Vyrn fixed his emerald gaze on Shishu, the feigned submissiveness vanishing from both his postur and voice.
"Healing what injuries she has now will increase the ever diminishing chance that your mate will make it out of this alive, Pack-Master. Now stop letting your fear dictate your actions, and either help the other two, or stay out of the way." He rumbled, brushing past the Alpha to sit next to Galexia. The air around them seemed to dim, then all at once the two wolves were swallowed up in a cloud of inpenitrable darkness as Vyrn's spell took effect.[/glow] |

Seems her cry went to a lot more than she had anticipated. Galaxia could feel Shishu's anger as if it were her own and she wanted him to calm down, to think rationally. 'Move it,' she said trying to continue to relax her body. To not let the stress of all of them effect her outcome of the situation. [/color][/size] |
