Chapter 29 - Arm?

I woke up at a place that I didn't recognise. My head's under something comfortable. I heard people whispering, and tried to ignore them. They started talking louder however.

"Shes awake"

I recognised the voice as Tony's, and the one that followed as Laci's. Laci's voice came from above me however

"Red"

I decided to get up and see what was going around me. What I was laying on appeared to be Laci's lap, Tony was sitting right across from us, but I didn't see Kell anywhere

"Where's Kell?"

Tony and Laci exchanges a look and then Laci answered hesitantly

"He-He's resting"

"Oh, How much time was I out?"

This time Tony answered

"About two days, so far Kell has been the only one protecting us"

"Sorry. About how much more time until we get to Laci's jewel"

"It would take us about a day"

"Well, lets get goi- SH*T"

For some reason I felt a shock of pain through my arm. It felt unsupportable. I looked down at where my arm was supposed to be so I could cradle it, but it wasn't there. The memories of two days ago came rushing back at me. I remembered everything. The pain, the shock, I wonder if Kell is okay. I don't want him blaming himself for this

"Tony, go get Kell. We're leaving as soon as I'm done talking to him"

As Tony left another question came to mind

"Laci, did you guys build some sort of shelter or something while I was passed out?"

"About that, Tony said that it was better if he settled down since we didn't know when you were going to wake up. He got scared when he realized how much you were bleeding and thought that you were gonna die of blood loss, but Kell went through your bag and found it a little pouch which he later applied on you and then the bleeding stopped. To prevent it from getting infected Tony wrapped it up in some bandages that he had in his bag"

"I see"

After a few minutes Kell came into our little shelter place. He looked depressed and for some reason I felt the need to point it out

"You look awfully depressed"

"Are you okay?"

"Well, sometimes I get a shock of pain from the area, as if my arm is being sawed off. But besides that, I'm perfectly fine. Besides after we get back I can use my powers to grow out another one"

"I...hadn't thought about that"

"Now you have. Alrighty, let's get out of here dudes."

"Yeah, let's get out of here."

Kell agreed with me. I saw my sword and holster across from me and stood up to get it. I wrapped the holster on me and placed my sword inside. I'ma have to get used to this. I found it funny that a few days ago I was fighting with a friend for fun, and now I'm fighting creatures and beasts that I don't recognise, just holding on to dear life.

"You lost an arm and now you are laughing?"

Said Tony, interrupting my thoughts

"You bet I am"

"I believe it is time for us to go"

We left the place and when we decided to take a break to eat I decided to ask a question to the guys that had been pondering in my head.

"Where did you guys put my arm?"

I don't know if I should have asked anymore. Everybody stopped eating and directed all of their attention towards me and then at Tony

"I got rid of it."

"Huh, what did you do to it?"

"I-uh-there was a creature chasing us and I threw it at him, which he later ate"

"Wow, I did not expect that from y- AAAHHGGG"

I grabbed my sword and swished it around until I hit whatever had attacked me. Blood flew all over my face and I noticed that I had decapitated the creature.

"GIVE ME A F*CKING BREAK! CAN'T YOU SEE THAT I JUST LOST AN ARM?! IDIOTS!"

I looked around and the guys all seemed shocked

"Ah, sorry"

Laci was the only one said something

"Yeah no- no problem"

We walked for about another half hour and then came to a stop right in front of two other jewels.
