Xeris looked up as she saw Rendall bounding over, and winced slightly as she felt the sting of the herbs. Herbs...had Rendall found Pendzez or Anya? At least they had something to help her with. She groaned a little as the pain in her side intensified and stung. The white female heard Ty's voice as she squeezed her golden eyes shut. She appreciated Ty's shifting of her body to a more comfortable position; the pain lessened a little and breathing wasn't so painful.
She suddenly heard the sound of footsteps and looked up to meet Pendzez's eyes. Good, she thought, he got here. Now how was she going to explain to all of them what had happened? What would she say? That she just got lost? That she challenged a coyote outright? Xeris closed her eyes again, resolving to think about that at a later time once the pain had started to go away. The wounds on her face and foreleg had stopped bleeding, or at least she thought they had, though her leg still ached where it was broken. Slowly she felt the pain begin to lessen in her side; it wasn't going away completely of course, but she did feel at least a little better; perhaps the herbs were working.
