chapter 5: the dreaded what if? Getting home

Yami and Seto continued running until they were several miles from where they had come from. Both girls looked worse then they had inside the strange chamber where they had been kept captive, yes now both almost looked near death. The pharaoh and his loyal servent and friend, had stopped and made camp as soon as the sun had begun to set and the heat was becoming more or less coller and eiser to deal with. "I say we travel with the girls by night only. It will be safer if we are going to make it back. Yes I know that will dobble our travel time, but in the end its much worth it." Yami suggested as a guard came to him handing him some things he might need.
Seto nodded. "I agree... we must watch over them and let no one tend to them." He suggested.
Yami simply nodded and continued to look over kayla as he cleaned out her cuts. Most of the blood stains were only dryed on from the cuts above it so it wasn't very hard to remove. However, the lashes she did recieve were painful and were deffently infected. They also covered over half her body. She was completely out cold and yami was busey cleing up her cuts the best he could with the watter he had brought along with him. "How is the other girl doing?" Yami asked as he worked.
"She seems to be fairing quite nicely. She has about the same amount of lashes and the like on her, but nothing that I couldn't cure. They both look as if they may be needed to be examed though." Seto replied as he pointed out a gash in the back of Jenna's Head where she had been knocked out. "This one is deffently a fighter type and the other looks like she tries but doesn't have the engery or willpower to perform such tasks." Seto added quickly stopping a moment to asses the damages done to Kayla.
"They both appear to be in just about the same shape to me. " yami concluded, but his thought was cought short as kayla began to breath funny and each breath appeared to be a struggle to get out. Yami rushed to her side and proped her up somewhat to allow better air flow into her body. This appeared to work for a while and then she returned to the limp form that she had been in only moments before. Yami gasped as tears flooed freely from his eyes dripping down on Kayla's hand. Seto stopped working on Jenna only long enough to see what yami was crying.
"I can't lose her." Yami began to chant as his tears flooed faster down his face.
"Like Jenna, she is just out. She is still alive and breathing." Seto stated as he picked up Kayla's limp rist and checked for a pulse. "She is still alive but week." Seto confirmed after he checked. He then pulled Yami into a hug. "its going to be ok we can tend to them. Neither appear like we would but I know how you feel I feel the same way tords jenna even though I had just reccently met her." Seto reassured.
"Really?" the great pharaoh questioned acting like a lost child on this matter.
"Yes, now see there, she appeares to be coming around already." Seto pointed out as kayla mved slightly in yami's arms. Her eyes flashed open a moment and she moved slightly before reclosing them.
"Kayla..?" Yami questioned looking down at the form in his arms. She was asleep again and this time naturally. Her breathing had returned to simi-normal and she appeared to be ok. Yami checked her pulse and it had sped up some and appeared to be returning to normal as well.
Jenna on the other hand didn't have any problem breathing. She was out so she didn't feel her wounds being cleaned out which Seto thought might foronce be a good thing. He never once left her side. Save for the one rare time he had to comfert his lord when he thought he hadlost the one he had seceretly loved. Well now it wasn't so much a seceret. He stroked her hair as she groaned and tried to move.
"Rest now, its all over kayla your friend is fine and with my lord." he said in a sootheing maner taking what Jenna wanted to say right out of her mouth.
"Where are we?" she asked him finally after waking some.
"I am afraid I canot answer that milady, as near as I can tell some where in the vast desert miles days even from our home." He replied.
"At the words our home, Jenna perked up a little bit. ::What does he mean by that?:: she asked herself not beliveing what she had herd.
"Jenna, I know this might be shocking, but I just wanted to make sure you are ok. I also wonder if you liked it at the palace. I mean....You aren't really a servent or a slave and don't have to be forced back there if you don't want." Seto stammered as he looked in her eyes storoking her hair and rebandaging a cut on her forehead.
Seto wanted to say more then that, He wanted to admit his love for her. He knew she was strong and a real fighter, by the way she appeared to be recovering from her wounds. Yet, he couldn't bring himself to say those three little words. ::Why do I do this to myself?:: he thought as he kissed her forehead awaiting her answer.
"Seto what are you trying to say?" Jenna asked getting the feeling he had more on his mind then asking her if she she was confertable where she as. She had been asked that question before, yet he didnt hear her or wanted her answer again. "I love it there.. Thank you again both of you.. " she said as she turned to look over at Yami a moment as she spoke. "And my friend?" she asked.
Yami chose to answer that question. "If she comes out of this, I want to bring her back with me, I love her and I need to tell her."
At this Jenna was stunned, she didn't know what to think seeing is how her friend might react to such news. Yet Kayla was much stronger then this, what was it that was causing her not to come out of this. she had to wonder but she knew it had to be her friend's willpower.
As if needing to hear those words, Kayla stired to the feeling of warm arms safely embracing her and rocking her back and forth and wet tears dripping on her face. She groaned and blinked up at the person. "Yami?" she choked out.
"kay..Kayla.." yami stamered unable to belive what he saw.
" Who hit me with that bus?" she groaned out.
At the sound of this yami hugged her close and cressed her cheek. "It looks like your going to be just fine." he stammered out.
Seto looked at yami once he had gotten Jenna to rest confeterably. "We rest up here for a couple of days and take the girls home by night, from there ..we can decied what to do. " he suggested.
To this yami nodded and kissed kayla's forehead
