[IC] I am the fire - Constantine RP

[FuriePhoenix]

Fia stayed beside Chas, even though every part of her wanted to shrug out of his grip and go over to Drake anyway. She let Serena go over first and check that Drake was indeed okay, sighing with relief when Serena have the okay and instantly shrugging out of Chas' grip and going over to help Serena get Drake to the couch again and stayed beside him. Josh nodded at Trish's words, "yeah...yeah it is" he replied, giving her shoulder a comforting squeeze.

Hearing John groan made Kay relieved. She checked his head wound and saw the little bit of blood but was thankful it wasn't as bad as it could have been. "You scared the utter crap out of me" she told him, as she looked around for something to put on his wound. "Chas, grab me some gauze or a towel or anything, he has a head wound" she then said over her shoulder, "got it" Chas replied, grabbing some gauze from the first aid kit he had out already and brought it over. Kay took it from his hands and placed it firmly against John's head. She then brought up one of John's hands and made him hold the gauze. "Keep the pressure on it so it'll stop the bleeding" she told him.

Serena nodded after she checked his stats and said “his weak and worn but I think he will be alright. Just needs to rest and heal. Stay with him I need check John” she jumped up and moved to Kay and looked John over. She said “don’t move him let me check his neck and back…I think he hit the railing…” John groan again, trying to open his eyes as Serena examined him.

Trish looked at josh and said “you okay?”

[FuriePhoenix]

Fia nodded at Serena's diagnosis, glad that Drake would be fine. She stayed with him when Serena went across the room to John, glad that her father was finally being seen to. She looked back toward Drake again, sighing. "Don't ever scare me like this again" she spoke softly, even though he wasn't conscious, she just had to get it off her chest.

Kay moved out of the way just enough for Serena to check John over, glad that someone in their group was qualified to know what to do in injuries such as this. "stay still John" she said, letting Serena examine him, still worried about him as he did go across the room rather dramatically and hit the railing incredibly hard.

Josh looked down at Trish and gave her a reassuring small smile, "I'm fine Trish, the important thing is that the others are" he replied.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Serena was checking Johns neck and spine as she said “Kay can you help me lay him flat. I feel something off with his neck but I think you can heal that easy. Just needs to be pushed back into place but it will break if I do it with my hand”

Drake was breathing softly now, already getting his color back.

[FuriePhoenix]

Kay had hoped that there wasn't anything wrong with John but Serena's comments made her realise that that wasn't to be. She nodded and with Serena's help, she carefully laid John flat on the floor. "where on his neck is the problem?" She asked her, not wanting to do John anymore injury either but wanting to be able to focus on the correct spot that needed healing.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Serena felt it again and then said “right where the neck meets the shoulder. It’s just a little out of place. A gentle pressure will get it back. You have a gentle touch. Chas? Can you come hold him in place? Kay I’ll hold his head”

[FuriePhoenix]

Kay looked where Serena was gesturing, she nodded but she was nervous about doing this, scared she'd do John more damage than help but she was determined to help. Chas looked up and walked over, "sure, you'll need it. He'll either deal with it or fidget like mad" he replied, squatting down and holding John in place. Kay nodded again when she got told Serena will hold his head, "okay..." She said nervously, waiting for Serena to give her the go ahead before she placed her hands where she needed to, then with a deep breath taken and mentally making her hands steady themselves, she felt exactly where it needed to go and with a little pressure she clicked it back into place. "It..it's done, I think" she told Serena.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Serena let her do her thing then felt the spot again and nodded. “Yep you got it. Nicely done.” John groaned softly and turned his head weakly.

Serena moved and said “now let’s go check on Drake and then we can figure out what to do now” she stood up and then saw Drake passed out on the couch. “Fia? How is he?”

[FuriePhoenix]

With the confirmation she did it right, Kay sighed with relief and wiped her forehead in sign of her relief. "Just take it easy John" she told him, "she's right, go slow mate" Chas agreed, when Kay's attention went to Serena wanting to double check on Drake. "He's looking less peaky, normal colour finally but he's still out. I'm just glad he's breathing" Fia replied to the question given to her. "I reckon once he's been well rested he'll be back to his old self. Best to let him just rest for however long it'll take" she added.

"Has he had to do this sort of recovery before?" Josh asked the teenager, to which Fia shook her head, "not like this no. At most he's rested for a couple of hours but that's it. I don't know how much longer it could be with this. Last time it was just over a knife wound, well, gash really. Wasn't deep but stitching him up made him pass out" she explained. If anything, it was her that got into more trouble than Drake did, and that one time he got slashed by a knife was to save her from the clash with the blade as it was made out of iron. She just didn't tell that part for fear of frightening her parents before they even had her.

[MegaraFoxfire]

John groaned again and opened his eyes. “Oh…what did I hit…my neck is killing me…” Serena looked over and said “get some ice on his neck to keep swelling down” she knelt by Drake and checked him over, a frown on her lips.

“He might be out for a while. The stress of the injury and that spell might have been too much for his mind. We will need to keep an eye on him…”

[FuriePhoenix]

At Serena's suggestion, Chas got up and went to the kitchen to grab some ice, knowing that even if his freezer or fridge was ever empty, there'd always be ice in there. He grabbed some ice, wrapped it in a tea towel. He also quickly got some painkillers out with a glass of water and brought it all out. Kay stayed with John, "you hit the staircase, but you'll be okay" she told him, looking up when she saw Chas return with everything. He handed Kay the makeshift ice pack which she placed on John's neck whilst Chas handed him the pain relief and glass of water, "take this it'll help with the pain" he told John.

Fia nodded, not surprised to hear that would be the case with Drake. "Makes sense, I won't leave his side" she replied to Serena, having already firmly planted herself by his side on the floor. They never left each other when one or the other was in trouble and she wasn't going to start now.

[MegaraFoxfire]

John slowly sat up enough to take the meds and the water then said weakly “is the kid okay? Did it work?”

Serena smiled and stood, walking back over and said “okay…what do we do now? Is the threat to the future over now that Bane is back with me?” John shook his head and said “we won’t know…the kids can’t go back and forth…”

[FuriePhoenix]

"Yeah it worked, Drake is out cold at the moment but he's okay. Got colour back in him and Fia is by his side" Kay replied to John's concern. "So you don't need to worry about him at the moment alright? Focus on yourself now" she told him as Serena walked over and asked what was to happen now. Listening to the short conversation, she had to agree with John and she didn't know anything about the type of time travel that the kids were even able to accomplish at all.

"He's right" Fia spoke up, looking over her shoulder at the adults across the room by the stairs. "It took a lot out of both of us to get back here, me especially as I cast the spell. "It took me a good 24hours to recover before we could remotely intervene with things here" she added. "When it comes to the threat, all you guys can do is hope that it worked, and for me and Drake to find out once we get back. If we're lucky and things do change in the future then a fixed point here will change but chances are you guys won't even feel it change. It'll seem completely normal for you lot." she explained.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Serena nodded then looked back at John and said “so we hope for the best then. And now that we know that we have to keep me and Kay from going dark to keep the future in tact I think will help…” she rubbed her face, looking wiped out.

John nodded and tried to sit up more. “Now…we figure out who that demon is and why his after Bane so bad…”

[FuriePhoenix]

Kay, Josh, Fia and Chas all agreed that what Serena summarised seemed to be their only option in this time. Unfortunately neither Chas or Kay believed that this would be the only attempt at turning both Serena and Kay dark which didn't leave a great deal of hope in either of their heads or hearts. Chas couldn't help but think this was precisely why John always used to say who would be dumb enough to walk this path with him.

Kay helped him sit up a bit more, making sure he was being careful in the process. "Seems like the only thing we can do. I can't imagine Bane having any good ideas for why he would be targeted" she said then looked at Serena, "or would he?" She asked, seeing how wiped she was. "But I think for now we all need to rest and this can be thought about in the morning" she added her opinion.

[MegaraFoxfire]

John nodded and said “rest is a good idea for everyone…Serena, you have a look” Serena was lookin at her own shadow, her mind going a mile a minute. Then said “let’s get Drake to my room…he can stay there. I want to do some research on the demon we saw…”

John frowned and said “love there will be time for that…not now.”

[FuriePhoenix]

The others had to agree that it did look like Serena wouldn't get any of what happened or that they had discussed off her mind. Josh shook his head, "Kay and John are right, no one is doing research tonight. You've all been through enough right now, you ALL need to rest up, not just Drake and John. That includes you too" he told her, slightly more firmly than he would have liked but it was evident that there was worry and concern for her welfare in his tone as well.

"None of this will get away from us over night. You need the sleep just as much as the rest of us" Kay added, helping John up off the floor properly. "So please? Don't do any research without us?" She then requested of her.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Serena sighed and said “let’s get Drake up stairs…then I’ll just clean up down here” she went over and helped Drake with Fia, looking worn but not wanting to stop. John sighed and said “love…your burned out”

Drake groaned softly as they lifted him up. Serena carried him to the stairs and headed up. Bane slowly appeared behind Josh and said softly “we need to talk…”

[FuriePhoenix]

Fia helped Serena with Drake, taking most of his weight so Serena didn't have to, and deep down she did have to agree with her dad. Serena was looking burned out and did need to sleep herself. She didn't like how in this time Serena seemed so much more stubborn. She carried Drake upstairs and just gave John and Kay a look to say 'i'll get her to rest'.

Josh looked at Bane when he came over to him and rose an eyebrow out of curiosity. "What about? Is it about Serena?" He asked him quietly, as he gestured for Bane to follow him to a slightly more quiet area of the house so they could talk in peace, leaving Kay, Chas and John on their own in the main room with Trish. "If Serena comes back down to tidy up I swear I'm gonna carry her upstairs myself and knock her out to make her sleep" Kay said. It seemed drastic but it was out of concern for her friend's health.

[MegaraFoxfire]

Serena laid Drake in her bed and covered him up, sighing. “It’s hard to believe his my son…but then not really…so much like me in some ways but then a lot like josh in other ways…I pray he will be alright.” She looked at Fia and said “I’m going to go clean up downstairs, I’m sure he will be alright if you want to go rest for a bit. I’ll listen for him”

Bane followed and when they were alone Bane said “something happened in that building today. Something important and impossible. She used the powers of the goddess Nyx…like she was the goddess Nyx”

John sighed and moved to sit on the couch and hold his head. “We may have to love. She’s stubborn and driven…I’m more curious is what happened in that warehouse before the blast…”
