Caden walked back up the stairs of the castle and went into her room she closed the door and laid on her bed putting her head into her pillow. She hadn't gotten any sleep in almost a week but she never told anyone and she never looked tired. The truth was that she was afriad to go to sleep, she was afraid of dreaming of her awful past. But being so tired she slowly fell asleep.

Nicki walked outside and walked over to teh lake nearby. She looked aorund and made sure no one was around. When she was sure no one was watchjing she took off all her clothes and slipped into teh cool lake. She sigehd as she stepped into it. She began swimming it making sure to watch for intruders. When she was certain no one was around she began swimming around. She dunked her head underwater and soon she was all wet.

James was going toward a sound he heard in the buches during the conversation he was having with Nicki and Caden he moved through the bushes and he yelled loader than he ever had in his life.

Nicki turned at teh soudn of a yell. She stepped out of the lake and put on her clothes quickly. then she dried her hair as best as she coiuld and ran ovber towards the yell. She spotted James. "waht's wrong?" she asked him.

"May leg is stuck someone or something layed a trap and now I can't move my leg from this hole and i think I broke it can you help me get out and to the castle. Please." he said through gritted teeth

Nicki's eyes widened and she nodded. She leaned down and slipped beneath teh bush. She touched his leg and follwoed it down into teh bush until she found teh trap. She quickly plied it off Jame's leg and then came back up. "Does your leg hurt?" she asked worriedly. it migthy be borken...

"yes I do not think i can walk back" he said looking at the wound now giving blood from where the trap was.
" And i think we should hurry i am bleeding!"

Nicki nodded. She decided not to risk James hurting his leg even more so she raced to teh kitchen and got some bandages, some ointment, and cloth. She cleaned the wound, put ointment on it, and put the cloth around the wound. "Better?" she asked James.

Caden ran down the stairs hearing the yeall of James out side, she saw Nicki rushing to get badages. She ran to where Nicki and James were and saw James' leg. "what happened?" She asked with a huff of breath.

"A trap was set in the bushes and I think I broke my leg." He said through gritted teeth. "Did I wake any one up?"

"Yes..."
Jax stumbled towards the small group of people. Her brown eyes were half closed and her brown hair was disheveled and sticking out in places.
"Could you have screamed any louder...?" She murmured as she rubbed at her eyes.
With a sigh, Jax looked down at his leg. She flinched slightly.
"Ouch..." She mouthed.

"Are you okay James?" Nicki asked worriedly. He didbn't look too good.

"I am Fine When it dosn't hurt witch is .... um.... NEVER!" Stated James and now he was getting annoyed with all of the qustions he did not like showing the others when he got hurt

Nicki bit her lip. "You should lay down. Would you like an ice pack?" she asked.

"Maby after I stop bleeding i would like one can any body sew?" he said tears now coming to his eyes.

"I can." Nicki volunteered.

"Well could i get some stiches there is some fishing line it the top drawer over there" he pointed to counter " as for a needle find one quick. i will keep presur on the wound."

Nicki nodded. She ran to get a needle and string. She was soon back with both in hand. "Give me your leg." she said.

What part of I think it is broken don't you understand? he said but slowly moved his leg toward Niki "OUCH!!!!!!!"

"I think we should take you up to your room once Nicki is done stitching you up...I don't want you to be down here as vulnerable as you are right now." Caden said as she turned her head away so she wouldn't see Jack bleeding. She hated when she saw someone hurt, especially Jack.

Jax sighed and looked over at Caden. "Do we have any pain killers? Maybe that would help." She frowned and cast a wary glance at James's leg.

Caden looked down and shook her head. "We ran out last month. I was hoping to find a medical kit when we went searching to day, but we'll have to stay inside. The smell of blood will bring some unwanted visitors and we won't want to be out side when they come." Caden looked at the trap and then back at James. "Um...didn't you set that trap?"

Jax frowned. "Damn..." She gritted her teeth. "We'll have to go looking for some today then." She ran her fingers through her hair and sighed.

Nicki nodded. She stitched up his leg perfectly. Then she put it on a splint and wrapped a roll of guaze around it. "There you go." she said getting up. "Better?" she asked.

Caden looked over her shoulder and then looked back at Nicki and James. "Common, help me get him inside." Caden grabbed his arms and waited for nicki and Jax to help with his legs.
