Characters: Xander, Buffy, and Kris
Location: Buffy's house
Description: Down two slayers...


Xander: Xander had been enjoying welcome, he would have to come back, but he needed to go home and rest.  He walked through the streets of cleveland.  Staggering here and there, he was enjoying his buzz.  He smiled to passer-byes and chuckled to himself.  He turned the corner to his street and sobered up as he saw the windows were now wide open, make that broken.  Xander ran as fast as he could, he's supposed to be resting...  He saw Kris first, slumped against the wall.  He didn't see Buffy, that made him that much more scared, "BUFFY!!!"  He ran to Kris' side, blood was pooling around her.  "Oh god."  Xander pulled off his jacket and put it under her head.

Kris:  Kris groaned faintly as she felt someone moving her head."...W..ho.." She tried to formulate a question but she didn't have the strength and blood slipped from the corner of her lips. She reached out a hand to grab a hold of the person who was near her, her grip was weak and very unlike her.

Buffy:Buffy lifted her head at the sudden loud call of her name. She couldn't move, every time she moved. Something hurt and she felt cold and weak. Red blood stained her clothes and skin. She still held Kris' sword in her hand and a demon was near to her. Might explain why Xander couldn't see her. As she tried to speak, she coughed instead.

Xander: Xander grabbed Kris' hand, "Easy, it's Xander, the odd one.  Relax, help's arr..."  Xander's head spun at the cough, he saw the demon body.  Mentally it clicked.  He laid Kris' hand back down, "Stay awake..." he said in a demanding tone, "I'll be right back."  He kicked into military mode, inventory the injured then take care of the most severe first.  Xander leapt over the railing and landed on the grass.  He ran around the grey type demon and saw Buffy, "Oh god dammit."  He came to a sliding stop just next to her, his knees now stained with blood, his pants turning red.  "Easy, don't speak."  Xadner gave an sharp breath, he pulled off his shirt and put it under her head.  That better be all of you.  He started going over her wound.  Lot of blood loss, no major arteries.  "I shouldn't have gone out."  Xander got to work with what he could take care of.  The cuts and more serious wounds were dealt with.  He was afraid to move her, but he couldn't leave her out here like this.  He picked her up as carefully as possible.  Keeping her steady.  He moved her into the house and laid her on the couch. He quickly went back out to Kris and retrieved her as well, laying her on the day bed.

Buffy: Buffy was vaguely aware that she had been moved. Her body was on fire and the voice so familiar, sounded so far away." X..Xander?" She asked. Her green eyes parted slightly and she groaned as a bright white light greeted her and seemed to burn her eyes. She turned her head and looked for Xander and she looked for Kris. Was Kris okay? She then looked at herself and blinked at all the blood.

Kris:Kris inhaled sharply as she was laid back on a bed. She opened her eyes slowly and did a quick check to make sure all demons were dead. She didn't fancy them coming back to life and her having to fight again.

Xander: Xander was a blur, he was into the kitchen grabbed packs of blood and the extra large med-kit.  He ran back into the room.  He grabbed a heavy gauze and grabbed Kris' sliced arm.  He wrapped it tight, it wasn't deep, but it would bleed.  He moved back to Buffy and started packing the shoulder wounds with gauze.  He started wrapping it with medical tape, going under her arm, over her shoulder and over her bicep.  "Kris is breathing, she's alive.  Don't worry, its going to be alright."  God he hoped so.

Buffy: Buffy nodded her head to Xander's words. Her head was spinning and her world was going various shades of colour. The most dominant one was black and she kept fighting the urge to pass out." Someone sent them." She managed to say before she winced and clenched her teeth together.

Kris:Kris shifted on the bed. Her hands went to either side of her and she attempted to sit up. She knew she was injured but she had to do something. She didn't know what but her body stopped her in her tracks and she simply slumped back towards the bed. She rested her head down before she let her eyes slide shut.

Xander: Xander's head turned back and forth between the two women, they weren't going to make this easy, "We'll worry about that when it become necessary, right now, calm down, and don't fall asleep."  Xander lifted Buffy's shirt, he looked at her abdomen and the bruising, it was deep tissue, hard impact, broken ribs.  Xander cursed under his breath.  Meanwhile, his wraps were red.  "Don't move."  Xander stated as he let his hand press gently on the various points, ribs were moving inside her, but internal organs were still in good condition, no internal bleeding, at least from what he was feeling on the outside.  He let Buffy's shirt back down and moved back to Kris, "Kris, stay with me sweetheart.  You're not allowed to fall asleep."  He got to work on the puncture wound on her side.  It was just below the lungs, the blood on her lips spoke some worry, but her breathing was normal.  He put on the stethascope in the kit and put the cool metal piece just on her chest, he'd blush, but he was saving her life.  No liquid in the lungs, it was all air, thank god.

Buffy: Buffy hissed in a breath as Xander pressed his hands over her ribs. She leaned heavily against the couch and she inhaled slowly. Trying to control her breathing, trying to take some control back. To forget and even ignore the pain but it was difficult. She looked around her home, it was a mess and the windows were going to cost a fortune to replace. There went her money for her  holiday to Italy.

Kris:Kris wrapped her hand around the side of the bed. She focused her attention on that grip and she tried to stay awake but it was difficult. Every part of her screamed for sleep and every part of her felt heavy." Not that I don't have total faith in your abilities Xander but shouldn't we be in hospital or something?" She asked in a weak voice, her dark eyes were half opened.

Xander: "Working on it.  I'm not about to have you gals bleed out on route."  Xander pulled off the stethoscope and finished with wrapping her wounds.  He moved back to Buffy, the more threatened of the two.  He picked her up and moved her to the car and put her in the passenger seat.  He put her belt on, "Buffy, you're doing great, just hold on for a little bit longer."  He placed a gentle hand on her cheek.  He stepped away slowly, closing the door and then running back inside to get to Kris.  He picked her up as well and moved just as carefully to the car.  He put her in the back seat, belted her in, "Just hold on Kris, hospital is very close, and you're doing fine."  He jumped in the car, tires squealed as he backed out the drive way and flew down the quiet street.  His mind raced as fast as the engine did.  He got lucky, catching all the lights, and no police.  He came to a gentle stop at the emergency entrance in front of the hospital, surprising considering how fast he was going most of the time.  He waved to the people inside and two nurses came out with wheel chairs.  He set to work helping Buffy out first.  As he helped the two girl's out of the car, he gave the nurses a detailed list of wounds and injuries, leaving out the why.

Buffy: " Have I ever told you how much I hate hospitals?" Buffy asked with a wry smile before she felt herself moving.

Kris:Kris shook her head slowly." No..but I'm with you there." She slouched into her chair and simply listened to the nurses as they talked to her and Buffy.

Both of them vanished through the doors and were taken off to seperate rooms so doctors could work on them.

Xander: Xander looked like a lost puppy, standing in the lobby of the hospital. He was covered in blood, his shoulders rising up and down.  He wore a look half about to cry and half about to kill.  He rubbed the side of his nose his hand, streaking blood over it.  His eyes closed for a moment, trying to get over the initial shock of everything.  A nurse asked him if he was alright, he nodded.  He turned back to the car, parked it in the lot and then went back inside.  He filled out all the information he could for both girls.  He left the hospital and went back to the house.  He started to clean the place up.
