Bright beautiful dazzling red eyes. Dancing troughs the light of the shining sun. He couldn't take his eyes off of her, her beauty was one that he had never seen before.

It wasn't only her eyes that caught his attention, but her rare hair color. A sparkling kind of silver, the one that would make anyone believe that she was a goddess. It was shining through the sun, and the man, once again couldn't take his eyes off of her.

The girl just stared back at him not having the force to move her head away from his stare. Her blood was pouring out of her body into the yellow sand making her dirty dark grey clothes even dirtier. She was laying on her stomach, her arms on either side of her body and her face turned to the right where the first person that she's seen in days was standing.

The man totally focused on the girl's beauty, got out of his daze when he heard a hard cough who came from the beautiful young lady. Blood. He noticed. The poor girl was coughing out blood, now it hit the man. The human-like-goddess was injured, very badly and her perfect beautiful face looks like it might break in two. Not literary but in a way yes.

He quickly came to her aid by grabbing his water bottle from his bag that stood on his side. He brought it closer to her but found no sign of moving. Could she even move? Should he help her drink the water? What else could he do to help?

But the young girl again didn't move, she lost too much blood for that. But even if she could move she wouldn't accept anything from a stranger. Doesn't matter if it is a life or death situation. Not after what happened to her, no she wasn't going to trust a stranger just like that. Who knows what he might have put in that bottle full of water. Poison? Probably.

As if the man understood her worries, he brought the water bottle to his lips, and took a good sip of it, before saying in a very comforting voice "It's not poisoned" But he, being unsure if she believed, added rapidly in the same comforting voice he was using "I promise"

But the girl didn't need his promise, the sip he took got all of her worries about the water to vanishes, so she decided to believe him hoping with all of her wills that he wasn't lying. Cause right now, a sip of water sounded so good for a dying girl.

With the little bits of  strength she had left, she opens her mouth a little hoping that the man understands what she is trying to say.

The man understood, but instead of giving her the water right away he brought her in his arms and carried her to the closest tree, making her sit on the edge of it, now she had a better position to drink the water then laying flat on her stomach.

After he placed her, he noticed her blood all over her clothes and as he looked back at their previous location, it was on the sand as well. Surprised was what he felt, how could she survive like this? How much blood had she lost? And at that thought, he remarks that she had more injuries than that. They look more like some really old scar, she had many of them on her arms and legs. What did this girl go through to get all of this? was the question that went through his mind.

Finally, he snaps himself into reality and brought the bottle of water to the silver hair girl's lips, holding it as she was drinking. Slowly at first as the pain in the girl's throat was unbearable but quickly got over it and started drinking so fast that it seems for the man that she didn't have time to swallow. When was the last time she got to drink something or eat?

The man, now wearing a satisfied grin on his face, decided to tell her what he was going to do and hopefully get her approval, "Now miss, I need to apologise for my rude behavior and for not asking before carrying you" he quickly apologised before saying "I am going to bring you to the village's healer, may I carry you?" he asks, before reaching for his bottle and putting it back in his bag.

She just stared at him, not making a sound, as she somehow managed to make a little head shake.

The man notices that little movement and grin with all his white perfect teeth, quick on his feet he went and once again put the injured girl in his arms carrying her bridal style back into the village.

He still couldn't believe how could this small size girl be alive after all her injuries?

Now that she was in his arms he had a better view of her body -who was in fact really bony- and her injuries just seem so much worse than when she was seating down. He had to bring her quickly! No time to waste!

The injured girl in his arms passed out due to her lack of food and rest. Just how long did she survive like this, in the sea where anything is possible?

As he near the small village, he rapidly went to the healer's house. Where the only person that could be considered a doctor lives.

Once he arrived the young man, who didn't have any available hand decided to kick the door multiple times but stop when he heard some footsteps coming closer and closer.

The door finally opened to a very old looking grandpa who had a very long white beard and no hair whatsoever on his head. Well, he looked very old. Obviously, stop stating the obvious the young man thought to himself.

"Oh, why hello young man, what brings you here, on this lovely day?" He asks, totally missing the fact that the man was holding a very badly injured girl.

"Healer please save this young lady" he pleads the healer.

The old man steps out of his house, now curious as to what might have happened to that poor lady, he started to walk in a circle around the two, only stopping to check on the girl here and there, when finally he stopped in front of them. "Yes! Yes! I am afraid to say that she might die in a couple of days if she isn't treated," he says as calmly as possible, taking a sip from his pipe and letting it all out right after " you should bring her to the healer" he said once again really seriously.

The young man was shocked, is this old man serious? He asks himself "You're the healer!!!" he yelled at him. With a very big and visible irk mark on his head.

"Oh... that's right, I sometimes forget that I am the healer, hahaha," the old man laugh out loud as he opens the door to his house " come in, come in, put her on my bed!"

The young man, now doubted his choice to leave the young girl in the hand of the healer, but no one else in the village knows about medical stuff except for the healer's student, but she was gone in search of more effective medical plants. She was expected back in a week or two.

"Oh-oh-oh young man would you like some tea?" Came the voice of the old man from what the younger man assumes to be the kitchen "I mix some new herbs together, I really do hope it will make the taste sweeter" he says while taking a sip, the young man was about to decline the offer but got interrupted as the old grandpa spit all the tea he just took in his mouth "I believe I might have mixed some poisoning plants in the new combination" he states again as calmly as ever.

The man couldn't believe his ears, was this good for nothing old man really a professional healer? It's true this village was his home but he never got the chance to meet the healer himself, because he would always go to the healer's student, Maya, when he got hurt and all, but she was gone and the young lady needed medical attention right away.

"Hahaha, good thing I didn't swallow it, I might have died there" the old man laughed completely forgetting about his guest.

"Old man, can you really heal her?"

The Old Man just stared at the man with a very confused look "who?" He asked.

Shocked was writing all over his face. Did he actually forget about the injured girl on his bed? He then pointed to the girl on his bed "this lady, can you really heal her?" He asked again expecting this time for him to answer.

"Oh-oh-oh that's why she was on my bed!"

The man face palms, wasn't it obvious why she was there?

"So can you really heal her?" he asks once again.

"Boy, are you doubting me?" He stares at the boy as if trying to intimidate him

"Yes" is his blunt reply

The healer fell down, broken by a simple word "how could you, boy?"

"Just do your job already!" he growled annoyed by this old man, and he just met him today!

The old man went to the girl's side and inspected her injuries once again not before telling the younger man to leave and as he was told, he left. Leaving the young lady he found at the beach with a completely untrustable healer. But what could he do? Nothing really, just wait and pray for her.
