"It doesn't matter... Though you may be able to stop a simple attack, you won't be able to do much... Fighting is too limited without sight. There are few situations where you could come out as the victor... and even in those few situations, if specific conditions are not met, you can easily be defeated." Bambino held an empty jar that had been previously used.
"Still, I'll fufill your request." Bambino held the jar in his left hand, and his sword in his right.
he tossed the jar up into the air vertically, and as it was falling back down, he swung the flat of sword against the jar, shattering it into hundreds of pieces. If any made contact, it wouldn't do much damage... but he was sure it would sting...

"you obvieously do not know how well trained i was in fighting by hand.... "she said and right befor the pieses came to her she added "and by Sword!" she said in a calm voice at the same time she pulled out her sword in a quick speed despite her weekness . chunks of glass whent flying in every direction none hit her as they came close to getting to her, with deadly quickness she cut its path short and sent them hurttleing to the wall but as she hit a big pice of glass a pice broke off an senceing it comeing to her face she had no time to sheald herself so turning her face it hit her just below the left eye. when the last pice was sent hurrtleing into the wall next to Bam, Star colapsed to the ground all her energy used up till she could no longer stay standding on her own. weakly she put her sword away ,sweat pouring down her face as she sat there breathing hard.
with bitter tears mixing with her sweat and blood on her left cheeck she tryed to look around the barn but yet still could not see a thing ... "so am i defincless as i seam when blinde?" she asked him quietly as she reached up to fill of the wound on her cheeck ... it stung as though on fire yet her face did not show the pain.

"No... you not as weak as you appear..."
Bambino gathered some cloth from his bag and walked over to her.
"But you are neiter inpenetrable, nor are you perfect... And the loss of your sight makes you even more vunerale." Bambino said as he held the cloth up to her face, letting her take hold of it.

she winced as the cloath was aplyed to her face. "i know.... but i chose to think other wise" she said stubbornly as she turned her face to were he could no longer see it... after a momnet of holding the cloth there she let it fall to her lap letting the wound bleed freely.
befor Bambino had a chance to give her a new one she held up her hand slightly "let it bleed... i dont care at the moment" she said tiredly... the strain of the night showed clearly on her face.

"Well we can't just allow it to bleed... Too much chance of infection."
Bambino ran his index finger along the cut, sealing the cut, allowing it to heal.
"I have some experience with cuts and the like... Fresh wounds are easy, its the aged ones that are harder to heal." Bambino noticed the tiredness in her face.
"I feel like I'm being redundent, but you need rest. You're going to use up all your energy before your body heals. I don't want to force you to sleep, but you really have to..."

Star sighed frustratedly an sank down to the straw were the broken glass had landed . " you might have heald the flesh but the scars run deeper than you can heal" she said in a tired voice not wantting to let herself sleep. her body showed her exhostion yet she mentley scolded herself for even thinking sleep.

"Hmm... I can see you've been through alot. It makes no sense for me to continue repeating myself if you're to restless..."
Bambino thumbed the handle of his knife... a time-old habit that still helped him to think.
"I've been wondering about your sight again... Though there are many possibilities as to why you lost it, one stands out above the others... Have your eyes ever been damaged before? And were they healed by magic?"

Star sat there in though with her eyes closed and filling herself nodding off quickly shook her head and opend them though she could not see him she looked in his direction "i...once... in the past ... i was loseing my sight and my dad used some sort of magic on me to make me see agin..." she trailed off leaveing out why she had lost it in the first place. though she new Bam probly already had an idea of why...

"Ah... your father... Well, that would explain it. It's possible my healing could have negated his... If thats the case, your eyesight should return as soon as you douse them with water... If you'd like I could get some for you..."
Bambino had already began to gather water in an orb just above his hand... The rain did have it's advantages...

she smiled but just as she smiled it slowly began to seep away . in the far off distance she could hear some thing that Bam could not... something that could easily kill them both... quickly standding up she shifted into her shifter form an looked over at him " GET ON QUICK!" she shouted as she stumbbled over to him and her face hit the orb though she could not see it at first but once the water hit her eyes every thing became clear as day once agin... "HURRY!" she said in a very urgent tone...
she had bent down slithly and waitted for him to slid on her back. she hoped and pryed he would get on and that her strengh would hold out longenuf to get them to safty.... her body slightly trimmbled as the ground at her hooves did as well... what Bam did not know was that a flood was headed there way and if she did not get them out of the barn quickly an to high ground the both of them might die...

(srry... had to take of some stuff for the past couple of days...)
Bambino took nothing but his sword, and mounted Star's back. "I don't exactly know what's going on, but if you of all people are so distressed, it can't be good. I leave it to you..." Bambino awaited StarS reaction

just as his weight hit her back she almost colapsed but takeing a deep breath an bitting her lower lip she ran over to the barn door an rearing up slightly busted the door open...
running out she looked around till off in the distance she spotted the flood headding there way. quickly spinning around she was off in a flash an ran at her fastest she could go... her breathing was ragged an her sides were quickly flakeing up with sweat. she did not know how much longer she could hold out with his weight and the meds she was on at the moment but she knew one thing she dare not stop for any thing...
after what seemed like hours of solid running Star saw a log up ahead right in her path and dareing a glance over her shoulder saw the flood not to far away. gritting her teeth she took the jump an landed clear on the other side. knowing that Bam was still on her back she kicked into higher gear that she realy did not have the strengh or energy for an once she found a hill started to climb up the steep side ....
once at the vert top of the hill she collapsed to the ground her whole body trimmbeling from the effort... "you ok?" she asked him in a raspy voice an slowly rolled to her side... the flood water hit the hill at the same time the had made it to the top...
(no problem i have been bisy lately any wat...)

(was gone again for a while... read the thread in conversation room for explanation...)
Bambino looked over at Star in disbelief. "You... saved us..." Bambino watched as the flood continued to flow with a never-ending supply of landscape... It was only then that he realised that they were soaked from being out in the rain, and with it being night, it wouldn't take too long for the bitter cold to set in. Bambino put both hands to the ground and began to concentrate. Softly, the slight rumble could be heard. Out of the ground in front of him, he raised a makeshift shelter of hardened dirt. It was circular in shape, basically half of a sphere above ground. When he was finished, though quite tired by then, walked off into the distance in hopes of finding firewood. It wouldn't have to be dry... he could easily pull the moisture out, he simply didn't want it soaking wet. On his way to gather what he could, he turned to star and said, "You should get inside... You'll catch a cold if you stay out much longer..."

she smiled slightly at what he said and slowly shifting back once she had gotten her breath slipped inside the shelter he had made for them both. "ok but hurry the rain is only going to come down harder in a little while." she said as she wached his reatreating back.
with a heavey sigh she looked around the small shelter a chill ran down to her bones an shivering slightly new that she should have helped him get the wood. after a cupple more moments she stood up and leaveing the shelter begain to pace out in the pouring rain.
( ya i saw that.. no worries here i have not been on the last cupple days .... had my own problems going on... any way glad your back)

Before she had gone too far, Bambino was returning with a handful of wood in his arms. He quickly motioned her back inside as he walked into the shelter. He sat down with a heavy sigh and began to pull the water out of the wood. As he finished pulling the last of the moisture out of the wood with his magic, and simply dug out a small hole in the center of the shelter, and put the firewood there. Lighting the fire with a flick from his finger, he sat back and waited for the warmth to radiate around them. He talked through clenched teeth in an attempt to hide his shivering. "How'd you know the flood was coming?"
