I Need Time To Think-REDWALL LOG

WHO:

Krisha-Badger Mother

Xander- Leader of Mossflower Defenders,Mate to Krisha

LOG:

==RW:Abbey Infirmary==

Krisha had gotten a message from a novice that Xander had been injuried,but not how he was, it seemed the novice didn't want to share and so the Badger Mother waited till she had free time and went to the infirmary to check on Xander and find out from him what happen.   

Xander laid on his side on the cot, a healer was checking the long claw marks that went from the top of his head and a little over half way down his back. They were deep,but not dangerous deep and they hurt a lot,even more so when the healer was trying thier best to clean them.   

Krisha stands off to the side and frowns deeply as she watches "What the...seasons..Xaander..."She sounds concerned and maybe a little afraid as well.   

Xander groans, not the voice he wanted to hear right now but he knew he would sooner or later.A couple healers gently roll him back onto his back after applying an herb mixture to his back and head, and a bandage around his back and head as well. "A...long ...story" It hurts to move right now but he has to move at least a little, and carefully.
   
Krisha asks, "I have all the time you need, who did this? What happen? Do I need to contact someone?" So many question and she wants answers for them so she is hopefully less stressed out "Xander...please talk to me"   

Xander would just rol over but pain prevents it, "The..old..sparrow leader...but it's my fault, ok..totally mine"   

Krisha shakes her head "How? Why?" She takes his paw into her's "Explain to me, they attacked you? What did you do and where was this?"   

Xander feels tears as he speaks "Outside the gates, I..I made sure it was outside on the road. And I..I let him do this, he and the others were angery at me, for..."A long paulse "For killing and eatting the wood pidgion, for shareing it with Patch and Nardo...and they know you ate some but I also told them you didnt really know all the details or fully wot it was and to not blaime you for any of it. I was the one who hunted the pidgion..killed it....cooked it..ate it and yes at the firepit which is yes in the abbey" He frowns "I have done the same in the woods more than once"   

Krisha listens and her frown just deepens "Let....him? What do you mean...let?"   

Xander explains "Simple..let. I didnt want more trouble for ....well you if it came to it, or me...or the abbey for, as the sparrow king said...letting it happen and doing nothing about it. If it wasn't for Lilymoore talking to them, they would of done worse than...what they did"   

Krisha seems afraid to ask "Worse?" She is also more worried, thanks.."Is Lilymoore ok, they didn't do anything to her did they?"   

Xander is quiet and finally speaks..."She is fine, they did nothing to her, she saved my life as they likely would of killed me, possibly in Cavern Hole I think or somehow draged me to the road and killed me there."He looks at her finally, tears flowing "I'm sorry Krisha. I..."Well he can't say he didn't mean for it to happen, he let it happen so he basically meant it to happen."But I didnt want you hurt or any other badgers that might or might not visit some time."   

Krisha is listening but she is silent, tears do fall as she lets go of Xander's paw and just takes a couple deep breaths, she has to calm down as this just is stressing her and she don't need stress.   

Xander watches her "Krisha...please calm down"He reaches towards her with his paw"I will be ok, things will be ok"   

Krisha doesn't retake his paw, in fact she backs up a little"I...I need time to think, I need to calm down....stress is not good for me and you...this..why!" She yells a little and shakes her head.   

Xander lowers his paw "I'm..sorry. It seemed...the reasonable thing to..do. They seem ...well sort of blood fer blood and they will leave us alone now"He won't mention the name the sparrow king gave him."I don't plan to ever ever eat wood pidgion again...anywhere.I wont hunt them or anything..i will avoid them in fact."
   
Krisha shakes her head, she listens or it seems she is "You ..."A deep breath it's not helping "You were WILLING...to let them KILL you!!!"   

Xander tenses up at the scream, "Krisha....please...the baby, ya can't get all....upset"   

Krisha is far from calming now "Oh SHUT UP!!!!!!!" And she echos in the room, the hallway and then starts crying.   

Xander frowns, he starts to sit up and regrets it as he does so, as it hurts to move too much right now."Krisha....please...I love you.." He is liely stuck in the infirm a week, maybe two.

Krisha shakes her head "Lay back down...and leave me alone. I need time to, to think..."She quickly leaves the infirm before she chanegs her mind on not leaveing.
