Tommys POV
As I began to come too, I heard someone quuckly run to my side, and I slowly moved my ears in their direction. I felt weak, drained, and dizzy. I felt a soft hand rest on my shoulder. "Tommy...?" Nicks hesitant voice questioned from beside me. I slowly opened my eyes, but I knew he couldn't see them through my mask. I shifted my head slightly to look at him better. He was looking at me hopefully, what happened? I wondered to myself, then an image flashed in my mind. The image of looking down and seeing a bloody mess on my stomach. I gasped and quickly sat up, gripping my stomach.

I looked down, but I didn't see any sounds, or any blood. Everything looked in tact. I was confused, then I felt a pair of warm arms wrap around me, hugging me tightly. "Tom! I'm so happy you're okay!" Nick said, his face buried in my shoulder. "Uh, what exactly happened?" I questioned, my memory hazy and fuzzy. Nick looked at me sadly, "We were kinda hoping YOU could tell us that...I just found you in the woods with a large, fatal wound in your abdomen." Nick explained. I looked down again, "Then how come I'm still alive, and no longer injured?" I asked warily.

Nick smiled softly, "Oh yeah, Jon healed you." He explained. "Jon what!?" I asked in suprise, looking around and soon spotting the small jester passed out on Ashlie's lap. "Since when can Jon heal?" I questioned. "I don't know...But I guess it worked." He said. I heard someone step forward, and I looked over to see that it was Uni. He looked tense and awkward, and Cory seemed the same way, standing beside him. "Umm, may I check his heartbeat?" He questioned quietly. Nick wrapped his arms tighter around me and pulled me closer to him. "I can do that myself, thank you..." He hissed. What's up with Nick?
I wondered. Uni frowned, "But you can't do it as well as me-" "No! I'm not letting you touch him!" Nick snapped protectively.

Uni looked hurt, but he said nothing. "Oh shut up with that crap, Nick!" Cory suddenly snapped. "Don't even talk to me Cory!" Nick growled back. "Oh shut up, you little-" Cory began, but Ashlie cut him off. "Both of you shut up!" She screamed, and we all looked at her in suprise. "This is NOT the time for us to be arguing! We can't break our group apart now!" She snapped, "Now, Nick, let Uni listen to Tommy heart and lungs, so that if there's any stray blood in his lugs or anything, Uni can warn us. We don't know how effective Jon's healing is yet." Ashlie ordered.

Nick glared at Uni one last time, then he slowly let go of me and scooted away. Uni stepped forward and sat across from me, he faced me for a moment, then he leaned forward, and I knew that he was listening to my heart beat. He seemed to be concentrating hard on listening to every beat, and assuring everything was alright. "Okay...His heartbeat is normal." Uni said quietly to Nick. Uni leaned closer to me, "Hey Tom, breath really deep for me, alright?" He questioned, and I nodded, breathing deeply.

After a few more moments, Uni had decided everything was in order. He stood up and went over to join Cory in their tense, awkward corner. I looked at the bitter looks that Nick was giving Cory, and I began to wonder what I'd missed. "Hey Nick...What exactly did I miss?" I questioned. Nick looked at me, his bitter gaze gazing to something more caring. "Just an....Argument...That Cory and I had." He said slowly, looking at the ground. I frowned, "About what exactly?" I asked. Nick looked guilty, "Well...About how it was Uni's fault..." He said quietly. "What?" I asked, looking at Uni. He had his head down guiltily. "But it wasn't Uni's fault." I argued, looking at Nick. "I argued that I could go alone just as much as he did." I said. Nick looked guiltily at the ground, "I-I.........I know..." He sighed.

Then then stood up, glancing down at me. He then walked over and stopped infront of Uni. Cory seemed to stiffen defensively at this, but he didn't move. Nick looked at Uni for a moment, then he hugged him quickly. Uni looked confused, but after a moment he hugged back. "I'm sorry...I know it wasn't your fault...." He said quietly. "It's, uh, fine dude...You don't need to be blaming yourself either." Uni said, and Nick let go of him, smiling slightly. He then looked at Cory, "And I'm sorry I upset you, dude..." Nick said quietly. Cory gave in an unamused look, then it soon morfed into a small smile, and Cory began to chuckle quietly. "I should be the one apologizing..." He said with a sad smile. Nick shook his head, "Nah, I deserved it." Nick said, and Cory walked up to him. He smiled and parted his shoulder, "Yeah, you did." Cory said simply in a playful fashion. Nick scoffed, "But that doesn't mean It's true." Cory finished, and Nick smiled at him.

I shakily made myself to my feet, "Wow, what a BEAUTIFUL sight." I exclaimed jokingly. Nick turned around and looked at me in suprise. "You two cream-dips just touched my heart, and I didn't even know I had one." I joked. Nick chuckled, "Neither did I, bud." He said, walking to my side to assure that I wouldn't fall. "Thank goodness we got all of this sorted out." Uni sighed. "Yay! Everyone's friends again!" Another voice suddenly exclaimed from beside us, and I was suprised to see Jon standing there with Ashlie helping him stand.

Jon's POV
I stood weakly as the others looked at me in suprise. I had woken up a few minutes ago to see Nick hugging Uni. I was confused at first, then Ashlie explaoned it to me. "When did Jon get up?" Nick asked Ashlie. "Well, while you guys were over there hugging it out and forgetting about our existences, Jon woke up, and I filled him in." Ashlie explained. "Oh, uh, sorry..." Uni apologized. I giggled, "It's fine!"

"Should we be going on our way now?" I then questioned. Cory looked me up and down, "Can you even walk, Jon?" He questioned. I glanced at Ashlie, whom was helping me stand. It was true that I was VERY weak, and I felt like I'd used most of my energy healing Tommy. "Um, of course!" I lied. Cory gave me an unamused look, "Show me." He said simply, and I glanced at Ashlie. "Without her." He ordered, and Ashlie opened her mouth to speak, but I cut her off. "Fine." I said simply. Ashlie looked at me, and I nodded slightly. Ashlie slowly loosened her grip and me and scooted away. I stood shakily, "See." I said, and Cory chuckled. "Jon, you can barely stand." He said. "T-That's not true!" I snapped.

"Uh huh...Walk yo me then." He ordered. I gulped, "Alright!" I said loudly, and I lifted my foot to take a step, and as soon as I did, I fell to the ground on my knees with a huff. Cory smirked, "We'll rest here for the night." He announced. "Awe, but we're so close!" I complained. Cory shrugged, "Yoo bad." Uni walked up beside Cory and smiled, "From what I understand, we'll arrive tommorow." He announced happily. "Really?" Nick asked excitedly, and Uni nodded. "Yay!" Ashlie announced. "Any idea of what to expect?" Tommy asked Uni as he sat on the ground. Uni shook his head, "Nope, not even I know where we're headed." He said. "Well, in order to find out, tommorow has yo actually GET here, so I suggest we all go to sleep, so we're ready in the morning." Cory said, and we all laid down, and I fell asleep almost immediantly.
