(( =O you all know the rules, blah blah blah xDD ))
Enteri swooped down towards the lake where the trees where not close. he wanted to practice his diving skills and his flying skills at that to keep his skills toned. as he dove it almsot seemed he was about to smack and dive into the water but he barely pulled up adn skimmed the top of the water and he flew right back intothe sky. of course he didn't expect anyone to be near by where he was.

Ladius was annoyed. Wildly, deeply, extremely annoyed. And in pain. Perhaps to others, the pain would have registered first; but all that Ladius could think of was the circumstances that had lead to her injuries; a snarky kalona b*****d who didn't seem to know when to shut up. Gods that stallion had pissed her off, enough so that somehow she'd wound up in the borderline suicidal fight of her life.
In one sense, she was lucky to have walked off with her life; the kalona had underestimated her fighting skills, so she'd been able to pull off a few successful moves in spite of her lack of wings, horns, and sheer size. But even though she'd left her mark on him in more than one place, she hadn't been able to come away unscathed. Blood ran down her right foreleg from where she'd been sliced by sharp hooves, and a wide incision on her left side oozed blood as well. She had at least a few bruised bones, and besides that she was dusty and bore the smears of mud from when she'd hit the ground harder than she would have liked.
She was furious with him, furious with herself, dirty, dusty, bloody, and a raging cauldron of anger. And it was in this mindset that she'd stalked down to the lake, intending to bathe her injuries and body...and then fling herself into training harder than she ever had in her life! Never again would she loose, even to a kalona! This in mind, perhaps she could be forgiven for failing to notice she wasn't the only one at the lake...

Artemis was about to go for another dive when he spotted the mare he had met not too long ago. because of the heigth in the air he was at, he didn't see her injuries. swooping down and landing lightly on the ground, he then saw the injuies that where on he which caused him to raise a brow. " did you happen to hurt yourself training or am i able to asume you got into a fight from the way those wounds look Ladius." from what he could see none of the injues really where life threatning at all, but then he hardly cared and knew she could handle herself atlest thats what he got from thier first meeting.

Usually, Ladius would have been a bit more polite upon running into an old acquaintance, particularly one she hadn't had an issue with. However, at the moment she was annoyed and in pain, and suddenly having someone come upon her looking so thoroughly trounced was...well, embarrassing; so she was a bit more abrasive than usual.
"No, I ran into a damn tree while on my morning jog. Of course I got into a damn fight, Artemis Entreri; don't insult my intelligence by being facetious." Brushing past the stallion, she waded out into the lake, wincing as the water brushed up against the gash on her side. She was going to KILL that b*****d kalona if she ever encountered him again...though she wasn't sure how, at this point.

With out even a second thought he followed her right into the lake which got his cloak wet which was only a slight annoyance compaired to the snappyness he got from Ladius. " may are you in that touche of a mood after geting beaten that you sould be so snappy?" he couldn't let her get away with a snappy attatude with him, not at all. when it comes to Artemis, he never let anything slide by easly.

Good, he had balls to talk to her like that. Eyes closed against the sting of water lapping against open wounds, Ladius managed to restran some of her ire with the personal reminder that Entreri wasn't the one she was mad at...but that didn't change the fact she was hating this situation. "For your information, I wasn't beaten, Artemis Entreri. And considering what it was I was up against, it could be said that I had a staggeringly overpowering victory. But in case you can't tell, I'm in a wee bit of pain here and I'd appreciate it if you'd hold off on the snarkery until I've properly seen to this!"
After all, a seasoned fighter had to know the importance of proper medicinal care. Damn kalona was probably infected with something, for all she knew, and she wasn't going to have an festering wounds, thanks much!

" if you say so Ladius, and while you attented to your wounds i'll be dryign off my cloak." Of course Entreri knew the importance of treating a wound to keep from infection happening, with is way he even backed off for the moment. turnign away and making his way to land. he made sure he was quick to get on land to dry his cloak since he hated the weight it ccaused when wet. once he got a few steps from the edge of the water and where it wasn't wet, he laided down and closed his eyes while thinking but alert.

Once satisfied that she wasn't going to have to fend off any more unwanted comments, Ladius gritted her teeth and waded out deeper into the water until her body was completely submerged, then ducked underwater completely. Having done that, she rubbed carefully at the wounds on her side and shoulder, wincing yet again as the raw wound was scratched by her hair. She hadn't gotten herself injured this badly in ages, not since she'd first started out. But then, things changed without notice sometimes.
After a few moments, though, she was satisfied that things were about as clean as they were going to get. With that, she turned and waded back out onto the shore where she proceded to wring out her mane and tail.

Entreri kept his eyes closed as he was thinking of other ways to train his bady and wings. after a while, he finaly heard Ladius foot steps coming out of the water and still didn't bother opening his eyes. " so finished cleaning yourself up?" his tone was the same and even just how he always talked when talking with anyone but still currently he was still thinking out training in his mind as he listened fora responce with closed eyes.

"Something like that." Twisting the last bits of water out of her tail, Ladius turned to examine the raw wound on her side with the detached curiousity of one that was used to such injury. It would be a while before that was sound again...but maybe she'd just bite the bullet and track down her herdmate Elizabeth. The other mare might be obnoxious as hell with her 'lady' thing, but that horn of hers had it's uses. Although...
The idea came to her all at once as she turned and noticed the glint of the sun on Entreri's horn. He was an alicorn, not a unicorn, but it was the same principle, right?
That in mind, she turned and looked sharply at him. "That horn of yours, does it have any other uses than fighting?" A bit blunt, maybe, but there was no reason to kep an open wound any longer than she had to.

Entreri opened an eye to look at her upon hearing her question. " i am Alicorn, which has both the qualities of a Wind and Unicorn. so yes this horn has more use to it than fighting though because fo the fact i am a Alicorn, i can not heal very well, plus i never really tryed to heal another due to the fact i don't heal my enemies i kill them." he was blunt in is straight forward answer to Ladius and finaly got up and stared at ladius a moment before speakign yet again. " and if i asume right, you practicly askign me to heal you with what little healign ablities i do have."

Well, he was feeling awfully shrewd tonight, wasn't he? Ladius smiled at the tone of Entreri's voice, a curved smile that bordered on a smirk of amusement, as most of her smiles were wont to do. "There's no practically about it, Artemis Entreri. But I don't necessarily need a full healing, just a simple patch job to keep the elements from taking up residence in my side. I'm planning on tracking down a unicorn acquaintance of mine regardless, but why waste an opportunity, right?"
Even if they'd only know each other a short time, Ladius saw nothing at all wrong with getting a favor from an acquaintance. The sooner that she was held together the better, right?

Artemis Shrugged lightly at her words. there really seemed no harm in him healing her with what little healign ablity he did have though really he wasn't one to want to heal any one. " i suppose your right and i see no reason why i shouldn't. but you will have to tell me how this works as i asume you know how from having been healed before since i never have in my life time tryed to heal anyone, it just not me to have the urdge to heal anyone or help them." ruffling his wings to smooth them out, he wondered if she had her unicorn acquaintance heal her before.

So he was an anti-socializing healer, eh? Fair enough, since Ladius could well imagine the less scrupulous of the soquili population taking advantage of well-meaning healers. Not that she was that type, of course.
However, the amused look on her face deepened at his question. Surely he wasn't serious, was he? "It's the same principle as healing yourself, Artemis Entreri. You take your horn and touch it to the wound, leaving it sit there for a few moments until things have healed. In my case, that would be this baby here," as she gestured to the wound that crossed her side, "and this one here." As she indicated the one on her shoulder. "I've got some bruised ribs too, but since you're not a full-fledged healer, we'll see what you can do with the open wounds."
Nodding her head, she turned her body so that the side with the open slash wound was facing him, then she closed her eyes and braced herself for the inevitable sting of cold horn on the injury. There was no healing without more hurt, after all.

" seems simple enough and by the way as i said befor ei never healed before before and that includes myself." judging by her amused look, it seemed she had hardly beleived he never had healed before. he truely did find distaste in being amusing to someone else, but no matter. " alright then stay still and lets get this over with." steping close enough so that he could place the horn gently touch the wound, he touched the side wound first, then went on to the shoulder and as he did so he felt odd during it all for the simple fact he never healed before so he hadn't known what it would feel like healing and well he could say he didn't like it at all and wouldnt be healign anyone again.
