The Castle and Grounds

"She is afraid of cats? Odd, she appears to be a large bird. I have a cat, Adoration. My brother gave her to me four years ago." She stopped to catch her breath.

Kiara turned.

"Are you alright?

"No." she gasped. There was a pop sound from her hip and she crumpled. "I believe I have been too active." her breathing was shallow and pained.

Kiara went to Eglantine's side

"I can help you walk or I can call Saturn to fire travel us to the Hospital wing. Although I suggest you only have me call Saturn if you really need me to, Fire travel for you can be painful.... since you arn't resistant to the fires heat"

"Just help me to the Hospital Wing, please." Eglantine clenched her teeth as pain ripped through her body. "I think I dislocated my hip again."

Kiara bit her lip, she even with her help it take them forever to get to the hospital wing on foot. Taking out her wand Kiara conjured a stretcher.

"Come on I help you onto the stretcher, we can get there faster and less painfully that way"

"Maybe I can get it back in place. Wait." Eglantine moved her shaking hands down to her right side and gingerly felt around her hip. She turned swiftly to the left and turned her leg at the same time, screaming softly as a soft pop resounded from her hip. Panting, Eglantine collapsed against the soft grass.

Kiara went to Eglantines side again and sighed.

"Or you could do that" going into her robe pocket she took out an empty potion vile and transigured it into a cup. She spelled water into it and handed to cup to Eglantine.

"Here rest a moment, get your breath back" she said calmly yet worry was still clearly on her face.

Eglantine just nodded, too weary and pained to say anything.

Kiara shock her head and removed the outer layer of her rode and wrapped it up. She placed it under neath Eglantines head.

"You always make things so hard on your self Eglantine, I could have helped you you know"

"Perhaps." she gasped. The pain was receding as she began to replace the mind barriers that helped her ignore it. "But then you are no one to talk."

Kiara put on a innocent face.

"What ever do you mean by that?"

"You know what I mean, young lady." Eglantine smiled and closed her eyes. "I feel better already. See nothing to worry about."

Kiara smiled and shook her head.

Placing a hand on Eglantines shoulder she said "You are the only woman I know who will dislocated her hip and say 5 minutes later I is nothing to worry about. You are a strong person Eglantine"

"Say that to my hands." she smiled, reaching for her cane. "With your assistance, we should probably get to the castle now."

"Good" she said

Then rain drop fell in her head.

"And not a moment to soon I think, it is starting to rain" said Kiara as she offered her hand to the other women.

"It will be nice to see it rain. Thank you." And together they began to make their way back toward the castle.
"What foods do you like?" Eglantine asked, curious.

Kiara smiled as she walked.

"Oh it is a rather compliacted answer. I am a very picky eater most of the time, I like most fruits, favorite meat is chicken, but it depeneds how it is made any kind of sandwhich is my food of choice. what about you?

"I eat almost anything that provides needed elements."Eglantine answered. "But I am allergic to chocolate, peanuts and am lactose intolerant. Other than that I will eat about anything."

"I can't stand eggs no matter what form they are in, and I already told you I am deathly allergic to alchol, causes my throat to swell."

"I like eggs, poached mainly." She sighed. "Did you play in the rain as a child?"

Kiara though about for a bit.

"Not really, I guess I never really was a fan of water even before Saturn" she said with a laugh.

Eglantine chuckled. "As a child, I adored the rain. My father used to play with me in it."

Kiara smiled, "It must have been nice, you were close with your parents then?"

"No, I wasn't." Eglantine bit her lip. "They were always travelling and my brother and I were forgotten or ignored most of the time. When I was younger, I hated them. But as I got older, I accepted that they needed to research. By age 7, I had mastered the art of keeping house and taking care of my brother."
