Bandages stared at the frantic Kaleb. Demyx's wounds had stopped bleeding, but he was still freaking out. "Uhm...shouldn't you clean his fur? Unless he likes the color red, which he doesn't look like a red kind of person, he looks blue, very blue, more blue now then before." She shook her head, she was wandering off in her mind again. "Get some water to clean the fur, but remember to not get water on the wings! I'll watch him while your gone." Bandages went back to poking Demyx's nose. "Stay awake, sleep is bad, you might not wake up if you sleep."

"I...hurt.....and I dunno why..."
Demyx hadn't seemed to notice the fact he had wings, a new tail, and a shiny halo hovering just over his head. The sitarist shifted, whimpering as even the slightly movement aggrivated his wounds.
"K-kaleb? Why are you sorry? W-what's going on?..."
As Bandages gave her orders, Demyx blinked a few times and stared at the angelic.
"Water...on the wings? But...aren't your wings already wet?"
It just wasn't occuring to him that they meant they need to clean -his- wings.

Kaleb took a couple deep breaths in an attempt to calm himself, but his breaths just kept hitching slightly, and in the end the whole exercise amounted to nothing. There was too much fright, frustration and shame to erase with a simple breathing exercise.
When Bandages started talking about his friends fur, Kaleb couldn't help but remember the blood, and that brought a fresh wave of dizziness. But if he could help he was determined to try his best, so he quickly stood up, turning away from Demyx before opening his eyes and sprinting off to the water's edge.

Bandages shook her head. "No, your wings stupid. You have wings now. Big ones. Bigger than mine." She felt a big jealous, but then again...she wasn't fully grown, hers would get bigger, and then she'd be happy again. "Your wounds got healed by Kaleb but you have lots of blood on you and on the ground, he is gunna clean you up and stuff." She thought more about it. "We should move you too, laying in blood is bad. Do you think you can move a bit to lay in a new spot? And later we should get you to learn how to use your wings...but you should rest first."

"I...w-w-what?!"
Demyx stared before quickly moving his body, with a yelp of course, to get a look at these so called wings. The sight of them caused the musician's jaw to drop in shock.
"H-h-huh?! But..how?!"
He couldn't say he hated the idea of having wings, but it was just such a shock. If he had a heart, Demyx would probably suffer from some sort of heart attack at the news. Still stunned, the musician addressed the angelic's next question.
"I..can try...it just...it hurts to move..."
Hissing in pain, Demyx crawled to his hands and knees, and moved just far enough to get himself away from the bloodied sand. Wings and tails dragged behind him, the muscles too new and too unfamiliar to be controlled right now. As soon as he was in clean sand again, Demyx sunk back to the ground with a sob. A few tears flowed from his eyes to the ground below, their owner doing his best to keep himself under control.
"I...w-why?! And..how...diffferent do I look?!"

Kaleb hardly got within sight of the water before he used a shield spell similar to the one he used to make Bandanges' boat, and scooped up a generous amount of water. With the magical container happily floating behind him as most shields were keen to do, he ran back to where Demyx and Bandages were.
Once again he dropped to his knees in the sand next to his friend, gritting his teeth to ward against both fainting and crying. It wasn't long before he realized he had nothing with which to wipe off the blood, and he certainly wasn't going to dump the water over his friend.

Bandages only stared at Kaleb's hesitant movements. She groaned. She was the youngest here but she had to be the adult? How fair was that?! She took off a wrap of her bandages and threw them at Kaleb. "Use those to clean him up you big baby."
Swatting at Demyx's nose she mewed a little roar. "Stay still now stupid, you can fool around with your new apendages later, you need to be clean first, unless you like being covered in blood? Do you? Cause I wouldn't, I think it's icky, and since you're not making any sound choices right now, I'm making them for you. So you're getting clean."
Fumbling around now trying to think of what else to do her ears perked at Demyx's question. "Why? How? Uhhh...I dunno, this didn't happen to me, I was born this way, maybe you just uhm...tripped over a magic rock or...ate something weird? Do you eat weird things? You look like you eat weird things. I bet you eat weird things like...sugar coated cookies or something right? I'm right arn't I?"

"Erf...."
Whimpering pitifully, Demyx followed the orders of Bandages and stayed still. He wanted to yell at her for calling him stupid and picking on Kaleb, but it just took too much energy to do so.
"N-no...I don't wanna be covered in blood..."
The musician simply stared as Bandages rambled on about ways he could have changed. How were sugar cookies weird?!
"I eat cookies...but I don't think that's what did it...I..."
He thought back to what had happened right before the change.
"My headphones...they made this really loud high pitched noise, so I took them off. I was fine...until I put them back on...something must have happened to them! Nahira would know..."
Demyx sighed, trying to remain still on the sand. If it was true...then the same thing that happened to Nahira must have happened to him. He'd have to go find her later...when everything didn't hurt so much...

Kaleb flinched a bit as the bandages were thrown at him, but with a shaking paw he dipped the bandages in the water and proceeded to wipe off the blood. He tried to work as gently as he could, closing his eyes tight and pausing for a minute each time that familiar dizziness came over him. If Demyx wanted the blood off, he would get the blood off.
He paid no attention at all to the conversation that was going on, it was enough of a struggle just to stay consious.

Bandages huffed. "You're not acting very appreciative. Without me here he'd be crying and you'd still be in a pile of your own blood. And you owe me atleast a bit of respect from before so be happy I'm even helping you."
Myuing and thining, she stood up. "I've never heard of that happening, or of Nahira. But if you think that person would know, you should ask them."
She looked over at Kaleb, then went over and sat next to him. "You're doing good, you should relax."

Demyx whimpered, more tears sliding to the sand. Honestly, now was not the time to hit him with such things.
"I'm SORRY alright! I didn't mean for the water thing to happen! I was only trying to help..."
Crying himself, Demyx tried to settle back down. Getting worked up would only make the pain worse.
"S-sorry..and...I r-really appreciate the help...both of you..."

Kaleb trembled as he finished wiping off the blood, finding himself at a bit of a loss as to what to do with the bloody bandages in his hands and the magical jar of red-tinged water sitting in the sand next to him.
When he heard his friend's voice rise, he reached out to offer a comforting touch. "D-don't worry about it, Demyx, just try to relax until you feel a bit better," he said in a quiet voice.

He had technally said he'd leave Demyx and Kaleb alone on their little adventure but he couldnt stop himself. He would just peak in on them and not get noticed and neither of them would ever know he was there. So he opened a portal to near where his boy was and walked though it.
Beaches were not his thing. They were hot, espically in the black, and covered in sand so he expected discomfort on the psycial end. As he walked though the portal and shaded his eyes he looked around the beach for Demyx.
At first he didnt notice him but when he spotted Kaleb near something with wings he frowned. That mop of hair was familier but, well, thoes wings were not. He was silent for a moment until he noticed the bloody state of the beach around them and the fact that his 'connection' with thoes of the Organization told im that yes that was infact his boy.
He hadn't ment to walk over but he found himself walking in their direction. "Demyx ...."

Bandages was about to say something in reply to Demyx's whimpering but was distracted by the sound of someone approaching. Her ears perked and she sprung to her feet staring at the new person coming their way. "Uhm...we should move, there is a scary guy with a beard coming who looks like he molests little kids..."

This time, Kaleb's hand was a welcome presence. Demyx sniffled, but tried to quiet down a bit.
"T-thanks K-kaleb..."
The sitarist hadn't heard the other's approach, and hardly noticed what Bandages was saying. Some guy with a beard...yay...it didn't click that it was Luxord. He had said he was staying at the castle today.
"Erf....but moving hurts...."
