Jay got up and went to his room to clean up and change. He sat on his bed for a couple minutes thinking about the other, “God…I wonder who he is and what happened…Those wounds looked pretty bad.” He said to himself before heading back to the living room to see if anything had changed.
Arthur came to a few hours later, a slight moan of pain escaping him as he tried to process where he was.
Jays eyes widened and he looked up from his device. “Are you okay?” He asked, getting closer to him.
Arthur turned to look at him, confusion clouding his dark green eyes, "Uhh…. yeah… but.. how the heck did I get here?" he tried to sit up, hissing in pain, but eventually making it.
Good god, his eyes are gorgeous! Jay thought. He sighed and pinched the bridge of his nose, “I, uh, I carried you here. I found you in the alleyway…”
Arthur nodded, sighing when his head spun. "I guess I owe you…. Probably would've bled out if you hadn't intervened…." he said quietly.
Jay lightly smiled, “No problem. I’m glad I could help you out. What happened to you anyway?”
"Hunters…." said Arthur, adjusting his postion so he was sitting crosslegged, head in his hands as he let the nausea fade.
Jay looked confused, “Why were they hunting you?” He questioned.
"You know about the magic show thingy happening later this week?" asked Arthur, looking up at him.
Jay nodded, “Yeah, it’s one of my favorite events and the only interesting thing that happens around here…”
"I came here for that, figuring it be good practice as far as control goes," he explained, "But unfortunately the Wolf Hunters in the region found me… and managed to catch me off guard too…"
“Who are the Wolf Hunters?” Jay asked them cocked his head slightly his electric blue eyes lighting up and his platinum blond hair falling over his face a little, “And what kinds of powers do you have?”
"The wolf hunters are a cult of people who hunts wolves. Or halfbloods like me." He said, "And I'm a Chaos elemental."
“Oh, wow that’s cool.” Jay said brushing the hair from his face, “The you being a Chaos Elemental I mean…so the Wolf Hunters are obviously bad, correct?”
"Unfortunately yes, Hunters are bad." Said Arthur, "They live to kill wolves, or imprison Halfbloods. And they treag the actual hunt like a sick game."
Jays eyes turned dark with hatred, “How horrible…you need to stop them…” He said quietly.
Arthur shook his head, "There's no stopping them. They've been around for elenia."
Jay looked annoyed, “Ah. Well then, uh how’s your leg and side feeling?”
"Hurts like heck… but I've dealt with worse…" said Arthur quietly, glad that the nausea had vanished.
"Hm, do you need some painkiller?" Jay asked, standing up from his spot on the floor.
"I'll be fine." Said Arthur, watching the other carefully, "Besides you've done enough for me already"
Jay sighed and sat next to him on the couch, "If you're sure. Let me know if you need anything."
Arthur nodded, "Like I've said, I've had worse injuries than this."
"You live dangerously, don't you?" Jay smirked, then realized something, "I never caught your name, I'm Jay Silverlight."
"More like I tend to have bad luck" said Arthur wryly. "And the names Arthur Wolfheart." he said.
"Well nice to meet you Arthur." Jay smiled and extended his hand for him to shake.
Arthur took it awkwardly, used to using his left hand. Suddenly he thought of something and checked around his neck, sighing in slight relief when he pulled out a silver amulet, set with a damaged and tainted red gem.
Jay looked at it, "What's that if I may ask?"
"My wolf amulet…" said Arthur, "It's a reminder of some bad memories, but it's important I don't lose it."
