[Amaterasu's forest is lovely, isn't it? If your character is hanging around there, they may or may not notice Mu lumbering around. If they don't they'll find his hand on their shoulder. He seems to be in a decent mood, although his cloth is scratched and scuffed and cracked in a few places. He's also holding his gut with his free hand but HE'S FINE!]

Ah, I don't suppose you've seen Shion, have you? I need...I must speak with him...

[What do you do, Plane?]





((OOC: He's dying. Ref Here and Here))

[Shion has sensed the unsteady flicker of Mu's cosmo. It doesn't take much for him to know that something is very, very wrong here.] ...Mu? What is it? What's happened?

[lamb_of_gold]

[Absolute relief floods his voice, and he grabs Shion's shoulders.]

Shion! Where are you now? At home? Where's Athena?

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

[Now he's even more worried] We're still on board the ship, Lady Athena is with us. What happened? Did more Specters attack? You're wounded...you need to rest! [Part of his mind has started to register how badly Mu is hurt but he doesn't want to believe it just yet.]

[lamb_of_gold]

Never mind me, Shion. Wherever you are, you have to stop. You need to wait for D--nng!

[And with that, Mu's legs lack the strength to hold him up any more. Brace for impact!]

[ram-of-gold.livejournal.com]

[Shion will catch him and lower him gently to the ground] Don't talk, you need to save your strength. Let me see what I can do to help. [But he can already tell it's useless. At most he'll do is be able to prolong things a bit.]

[clinical]

[That's an interesting definition of 'fine.' This is what Jade gets for going on a walk for his coffee break.]

I know some medicines for stomach aches.

[Yes, he is going to deliberately misinterpret that. There's that little pang of annoyance in the back of his head at his inability to use healing artes.]

[lamb_of_gold]

I'm afraid medicine will be of little help to me now.

[He pauses there to catch his breath]

I don't suppose you know Shion?

[clinical]

I don't. But I can help you last a little longer to find him.

[lamb_of_gold]

I don't have the time or the strength. If I give you a description, can you pass the message along?

[He sags against a tree for support]

[clinical]

[Jade steps up to support Mu. He has fought in wars too often to be disturbed by this, and he has had enough of his soldiers die on the battlefield to consider rejecting a final request.]

Go ahead.

[Emil turns to see Mu in a Bit of Trouble. In a moment he's himself again and trying to support Mu, trying to stop him, keep him there, keep him close so that maybe he doesn't have to fall and not get up.]

Mu! Mu, what happened!? Y-you're bleeding, I-I— hold on, maybe I can find Marta. Just sit here for a minute and...

[lamb_of_gold]

Emil-- Emil no, don't. Just relax. [He's holding on to Emil's wrist to keep him from bolting]

Emil, I need you to listen to me.

[pactum.livejournal.com]

[Emil freezes where he is and stares up at Mu with those huge green eyes.]

M-... Mu... You're hurt. You'll... if you don't get help, you'll—!

[lamb_of_gold]

I know. [Full stop]

Emil, you need to listen to me, alright?

[pactum.livejournal.com]

[He bites his bottom lip, but falls silent and simply nods.

He won't cry. He won't cry. He won't.]

Because he couldn't stay away from this

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

Mu! [Shun quickly supports him, not liking how weak Mu's cosmo is] You're hurt!

[lamb_of_gold]

I'm dying. You need to find Shion.

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

What? [No, that's wrong...he told Mu about what was going to happen, things were suppose to be differentthis time around!] You can't be...let me try to help!

[lamb_of_gold]

I've bled out too much already, Shun. You need to do something for me, alright?

[shunofandromeda.livejournal.com]

A..anything! [All of this is reminding him too much of what happened in his Holy War. A few tears are already coming to his eyes] A..are you sure there's nothing I can do to help you?

[bonnypiperlad]

Mu? [That doesn't look fine to Jamie. Not at all.] Who's Shion?

[lamb_of_gold]

Jamie! Shion's one of my close...hgn...close friends. He's a bit taller than I, blond, and wears similar armor. I need you to--!

[Aaand he falls over.]

[bonnypiperlad]

Mu! [Jamie runs over to help, trying to figure out what's wrong - but it's pretty evident once he gets closer. He's seen that type of injury before, and it doesn't end well.] Och.

[He tries to support Mu if he can, holding him as gently as he can to try and avoid jarring the other man.] What is it ye need me to do?

[lamb_of_gold]

[oof. Mu makes it to the ground in one piece. He pauses for a moment to collect himself before continuing]

Jamie, you need to find Shion and tell him that no matter what happens, he needs to wait for Dohko.

[bonnypiperlad]

Find Shion and tell him to wait for Dohko. Aye, I can do that. But...look, maybe there's still some way we can save ye. If I can find the Doctor...
