Chapter 15 - Injured?

Tyler and I stare blankly into each other's eyes, no reaction. Well it's logical to be mad but, when I think about it, wasn't he quite curious yesterday? I flick my tongue at him.

"Hazal."

The previous silence making her nervous, she looks up at him gingerly, "Yeah..?"

With more of a statement then a question, he responds, "Why is it cute."

I smell blood.

With glowing eyes, "I know right!"

I flick my tongue again to be certain.

"Can I hold it?" He hesitantly reaches his hand towards my head.

The smell of blood is definitely coming from him. No a small amount either.

"If it'll let you," Confidently stating, "Onyx seems to like me the most, who knows if it'll even let you touch?"

They seem to be quite close, should I heal him for her?

At Hazal's words, Tyler snorts, "Who knows?" And with a cocky smile, he continues, "I've been told I'm quite charming, maybe she'll be mesmerized by me and jump into my arms."

"Pfft. As if, you don't even-"

Cut off by my using her head as a launch pad, I spring from her, onto his shoulders.

Obviously very proud of his 'achievement' "Hahaha! I told you! My sexiness crosses every boundary!"

With reluctance tinging the corner of her eyes she rolls them, "Whatever."

I start to wrap myself around his arms, pinning them down.

"Hazal." Slightly panicked at the force I was exerting, he asks, "She hasn't attacked anyone right?"

Annoyed at the question, she spits out, "It hasn't hurt me or Mom."

As she finishes her sentence I shift into a fifteen foot long Reticulated Python and quickly constrict around him, not allowing movement from the head down.

"Hazal!" Having his muscles pulled taut from trying to resist me makes it easier to find the injuries, a slight quiver will come from areas in pain. "It is hurting ME now!"

Seeing Onyx casually flicking her tongue, Hazal asks, "Are you really in pain though?"

Screaming in disbelief, "Hazal! It's gonna try and eat me!"

A little confused, she states, "Onyx can hunt pretty damn fast, so... I don't think it's trying to hurt you."

Did she get smarter?

He has six wounds, a large bruise on his stomach and left wrist, a deep scabbed over cut on his waist, two clear lash marks on his back, and an almost healed dog bite on the back of his left calf.

Calming a bit from Hazal's words, he relaxes his body, in turn I loosen my hold and start manipulating my divine power.

As I convert the power into healing arts, a golden circle appears on my head.

A small look of shock appears on Hazal's face.

For these wounds, middle grade is enough to make a complete heal. I funnel just enough divine power into the golden circle to complete the spell, making two sets of interlocking circle appear on my back, trailing down to the end of my tail.
