[BBS], potentially [action!]

Okay.

I need some help! I think I really need some help. I'm. I was in the training grounds earlier trying to. Hone my skills. But, I actually kind of stink and I can't do anything against these animals and I really need some assistance attacking them! So if it's not going to be any trouble, could someone please come down to the training grounds and help me?

It's kind of urgent, because I drank some water--okay, actually I drank a lot of water the past few days, I totally forgot about the 'stuff' inside it and I think I'm starting to feel the effects! I--I feel kind of funny and out of it and oh god

I'm scared

I'm so scared right now

How fast does this stuff take effect?

Okay, I'm going to try to go back into the training grounds and get some animal--um, maybe it's not too late still.

If anyone can make it here soon, I'd be so, so grateful.

[And this? This is Danny, frazzled and panicked, clutching to a dinner knife in the middle of the training grounds like it's his last lifeline. As far as he's concerned, it very well might be. Any moment now, he's sure that an animal is going to creep up behind him and kill him, but. But he has to do this, or else he'll be dead anyway. In all the ways that matter.

So if you were kind enough to actually head down there and help the poor kid having a meltdown, you might want to be careful approaching him.]

[It's a shame that a T-Rexaur is a bit of a distance away. Gakupo spots the shaking boy, reaching him quickly.]

Are you insane coming in here with just a dinner knife?! [Gakupo angry is never a good thing.]

I-I couldn't find anything better!

Then you shouldn't have come alone.

[Oh, that T-rexuar is getting closer.]

We...should get going.

That's--that's why I asked for help!

[Danny looks to the side and notices the T-rexaur hooooooly jeez wow]

Ohhhhhhh... Yeah. Going is. A pretty good idea right about now.

[He starts sloooowly backing away.]

Then you should have waited for help before coming inside.

[A T-Rexaur could be handled if Gakupo was with someone more capable of helping. For now, he could only cast Haste on himself and grab the other boy's hand to RUN LIKE THE WIND.]

I was trying to stay out of sight...but yeah, you're probably righ--!

[He doesn't get to finish because now he's getting tugged along, just barely avoiding tripping over his own feet and falling over. Eventually, he catches up and starts properly running on his own.]

[Danny is running too slowly! Casts Haste on Danny as well before that T-Rexaur tries to chomp on him, too, when it follows them!]

[O-okay! Danny has no idea how he's running faster now but he is, which is good, because that was WAY TOO CLOSE.

He is trying so hard not to scream right now.]

[Yes, please don't scream.

Gakupo lets Danny run ahead, pulling out his blade before slashing the air quickly, releasing a volley of shrill notes and chords. It stuns and stops the T-Rexaur due to pure shock of it all before Gakupo continues. That thing is so fast! This would give them some time to lose it from their trail.]

[He is trying to keep running but oh god

Breathing was never one of his strong points

He is panting so hard and his chest is hurting so much right now and he is trying not to slow down but he can't help it!]

[No time for slowing down! Gakupo yanks the kid along. There's a clearing up ahead where the T-Rexaur can no longer follow. Once there, Gakupo stops, letting go of the other.

Haste is still working, but it will hopefully wear off soon. His motions are quick as he looms over the other.]

What were you thinking?!

[Sorry, Gakupo, he can't answer. He's too busy being hunched over, half-panting and half-gagging. His throat and chest and legs are burning and no matter how much air he tries to take in, he can't quite catch his breath.

He is not used to running, much less for his life.]

[Waits for the other to get his breath back.]

You're not going to survive basic training...

R-really? [Pant. Pant. Pant. It's kind of hard to remember how to breathe! He wishes he had his inhaler on hand.]

And I...I thought I was...doing okay there...!

[By which he means, he had like two classes so far and was already being pushed towards the limits of what he can do.]

Only because I helped. [Kneels down, checking the other.] Are you alright?

I...yeah...I think...

[Okay. He's doing a little better now, enough that he can finally stand up straight. Oooohhhhh, this is going to hurt in the morning.]

Just...need a few more...minutes.

Sure thing. [Chuckles and sits across from him.] I'm Gakupo, by the way.

[His breathing finally seems to start slowing, but he is still pretty far from breathing normally.]

I'm...Danny...

Do you have any breathing problems?

Y...yeah...kinda like asthma...

[Okay. Okay. Breathing is down to something normal now. His throat and chest burn like nothing he's ever felt before, but at least he can breathe now. Just...painfully.]

[Looks at Danny in concern.]

Do you have an inhaler?

Not here...back home.

So not in your room? ['Home' could mean different things...]

[He nods his head, trying to swall--OW.]

In my house...back home, on my world.

[Sure, he needed it and kept it close, but he didn't exactly keep all his medicines on a utility belt that he wore 24/7. Which meant all his medicinal things were back in Wisconsin.]

Alright, let's get you to the infirmary, then. [Stands up first before helping the other.] I must apologize for making you exert yourself like that... [If Danny's lungs collapse because of him...the guilt!]
