Can't Stop Won't Stop [Komugi, Ranma, Igen]
Thu Sep 19, 2024 8:57 am
Komugi Yadou
She hardly understood any of her companions requests as her fixation to pull them away from danger was greater, her footsteps only slowed when exhaustion begun to kick in a good length away from where they had begun, even then her stride wouldn't break. Weaving through destroyed buildings and carnage, she was pushing herself past the brink to get them to safety.
Her heart felt like it was exploding in her tiny chest, feet burning, her body in unspeakable amounts of pain as the adrenaline begun wearing off and reminding her body that it was in desperate need of rest. The hand that held tight to Ranma's own was piercing flesh with her claws with how deadly tight the grip was...
They had to get there, they had to... Not that much farther..!
Oh.
Her knees caved out from underneath her mid step, as if those nerves had remembered how much pain they were in from the searing on roughly fifty percent of her body, and sheer overexertion. She fell like a hapless sack caught only by her right hand's extension, hacking and coughing blood as her shoulders rocked. Her vision felt misty, heart in her ears...
Is this what dying felt like? She's been at the brink several times in her life, but this was certainly a brand new way to experience it... Ah, that'd suck, she wouldn't be able to tell her baby cousins what happened... She couldn't go doing that...

RANMA GEKIRETSU
Ranma wasn’t as injured as her, c’mon. Why was he the one being dragged away from danger like a child whose dislocated arm was having feline claws digging into its flesh, causing him to growl in pain all the way: “Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrggggggggggggghhhhhhhh, huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuurts, hurts-hurts-hurts-hurts-hurts-hurts- FFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUU-“
And then, finally, Komugi came to a halt… but only ‘cause her own body was starting to fail her! Ranma was left sliding on the ground, the impact a fucking relief compared to the pain from earlier. “Iiiiiiiiiieeee… f-finally, ground, floor, sand…” he cried in relief, only interrupted in his moment of rest by blood splattering on the ground from Komugi’s coughing, “K-Komu?! Oh shit, KOMU!”
Shit, shit, shit, she looked like she was actually caving in… and for a while, not another word came out of Ranma. Instead, out of desperation, since he saw no one else nearby, he tried at least to stabilize her. One palm held over Komugi’s burnt skin, Ranma closed his eyes and tried to image her in front of him… Erica… and how her hands used to hover over his own wounds whenever she healed him from his reckless injuries. He’d picked up a bit from all those… numerous… times he’d been patched up by her and the other members of the 2nd Division. He felt that he could try to, at the very fucking least, stabilize and restore Komugi’s Reiatsu so they could reach further aid without her dying halfway. Would he be able to heal all of her burn wounds too?
Likely not… likely not…
So for a while, he just sat down with his palm hovering over her coughing, pained form, a green aura of Reishi pouring into her. “I haven’t tried it before, but… fuck, j-just stay and catch your breath. You still there, Komu? Komu? Komuuuuuu? Please answer me, Komu! Is my Kaidō helping? Sorry if it still hurts, I don’t know if I can heal all of your wounds- also, you kinda fucked my other arm up, so ya gotta deal with a one-handed Kaidō, okay?”

Stay awake... Stay awake... That's what Ojisan said when it felt like you might be dying... Can't die if you don't let your eyes close. Was hard to do that when it felt like your insides were mashed and you were gargling on your own blood, but she was trying her best to heed that advice... Wow, her arm was getting tired...
Her fur bristled in response to the sensation of contact on her freshly burnt skin, a quick reminder of new pain; if she wasn't so focused on staying awake she probably would've scratched the one responsible. Wow, she couldn't breathe... Wasn't great...
Even so, she felt herself perk up more, the sensation of sound on her ears keeping her awake as she knelt on the rubble-covered pavement... Was, was Ranma trying to fix her up...?
Though she felt more awake, she couldn't help but fully collapsed onto her side, cringing as she struggled to breathe and aggravated her burns again...

"What the hell are you doing?! You two, set up a barrier! IGEN! Get your ass over here!" Ko's voice would shout out from nearby. amidst the chaos, a number of Shinigami promptly moved into the area. Two of them promptly dropping to their hands and knees and planting their palms onto the floor. A thin veil wrapping around the area, promptly camouflaging those inside, as the second individual set up a barrier, until the sounds of destruction and fighting beyond faded, giving a small isolated respite as Ko and the other two shinigami rushed out to the surrounding area to look for more injured.
The Zanpaku'to spirit furrowed her brows as she noticed the damage to Komugi, and it wasn't long before the Third seat arrived. A flicker of a shunpo as Igen promptly arrived on the spot, darting into the camouflaged veil and promptly rushing over to the pair.
"Fifteenth Seat Ikomi. Tend to Gekiretsu please. I've got her from here Ranma, lay back down and rest, you need your energy to heal your own wounds." He insisted to the young man as he promptly shifted in and peered down at Komugi's own injured frame. Oh that was a lot of bleeding. He furrowed his brows and promptly let his hands hover just above her, not making contact, but still pouring his spiritual energy in. First boosting her spiritual reserves, to give her the energy to stabilizie herself, and then promptly getting to work. Applying that healing energy into her insides. She couldn't fully repair the organs, but he could mend them to the point that the internal bleeding would stop. After that he'd need to drain the blood. Otherwise it would keep applying pressure to her insides. Stop the bleeding, survey her body for any other dire injuries, and then clean out the pooled blood.
"Officer Yadou. I need you to keep focused and talk to me. Can you tell me my name?" He asked, testing to see how lucid she was. He'd need to figure out if she'd suffered any brain damage or if she was in shock. Get a better sense of her condition.

RANMA GEKIRETSU
Ranma heard shouts. His bloodshot eyes rose up to try and find the source of the shouts, but instead he found two random Shinigami faceplanting the floor as if prostrating in all sorts of directions. It was only when a thinly veiled barrier rose up around them that Ranma’s nerves managed to beat themselves into submission again – this was aid. Aid! Just what he needed! Hallelujah!
He saw… a pink-haired girl. Wait, no, that was a dude- anyway, he was told to lay back and let him tend to Komu, since Ranma wasn’t exactly in the best-
“Nrrgh, j-just in time, I guess… ya got any orange juice?” he asked, laying down and feeling the numbness intensify in his left arm whose shoulder end was dangling a bit lower than normal thanks to being dislocated and cranky. His burning blood that leaked out of his arm’s skin from Komu’s nails earlier had coagulated about now, and that didn’t feel very comfortable either. Other than that… a lot of burn marks, too. His Shihakushō was tattered and flaky, his palms were blackened, and his eyes were red.
“My name’s Ranma… is Komu gonna make it? She saved my life…”
… Yeah, his head was spinning too. That question from Igen wasn’t aimed at him, but Ranma answered regardless.

Komugi Yadou
The pain in her body was dissolving into nothing, the stirring of her chest having lessened drastically - she felt so weak, and little... Man, was she actually going to die? Her ears were ringing, vision fuzzy as she saw new things floating above her, particularly a flash of.. Pink hair? She felt a little more awake, no no wait, she knew that head of hair...
A harsh cough would force more blood up, her head falling back as some shallow breaths came in. Nope, no dying, that wouldn't be any good..! Her clawed hand pressed against her chest, coughing and gagging as she tried to push her voice out, squinted eyes looking at Igen.
"...gen...dai..?" Her wheezing tone would force out, shuddering. Wait was, where was...
Okay, good... Good... There was help. Gekiretsu would be alright... Relief washed her, that she managed to save him. She managed to save somebody..!
"I..hhhen..dai... C...an.t... Br..." Another coughing fit, her lungs forcing fluids out as she struggled and groaned in pain.

Igen furrowed his brows a bit and nodded to Ranma. "Just sit back and take a deep breath Gekiretsu. You need some healing as well." HE noted softly as another of the healers moved in to tend to Ranma's own injuries. As Igen focused on the feline beneath him. She really was small, but there was blood in her, he could hear the crackling in her voice and he tensed a bit. There was internal bleeding.Closing his eyes, he furrowed his brows as he focused his reikaku. Right... left lung lower, right lung upper. He'd need to drain it, otherwise she wasn't going to be able to breathe properly. "Koozoku." His voice was firm, firmer than he usually spoke to her.
Without a word, the feline woman faded as her body was replaced with blakc stripes which slithered to Igen's body. Curving up his forearm before one of the stripes extended and coiled up on itself, thinning to a slim black tube with a sharpened point. He held his hand over it, and the dull glow of a kido formed, a spell intended to sterilize equiptment. "Komugi, you're going to feel a bit of pressure, but just relax. I'm going to turn you onto your side Take as deep breaths as you can." He instructed as he turned to the other division members. This wans't a great place to do this, but she was suffocating.
He promptly rolled Komugi onto her back and closed his eyes, focusing his reikaku to the absolute limit. Slowly guiding that needle-like stripe and pushing in. the needle was so thin she'd barely feel it, pushing in between her ribs in her back, and then sliding into her lung. A prompt gush of fluid and blood would spill out into the container a nearby division member had gotten out. It would sting, but as soon as it was in, Komugi would feel that pressure slowly ebbing as the fluid in her lungs was drained out.
First one. Then the other. a careful process. Sterilizing the makeshift drain. He'd apply a gentle healing energy to it as he pulled it out so that it would heal just as the needle left, a slight warmth to keep things sterile on the way out. When he was done, both lungs would be drained, and a partially filled bedtub would be filled with the contents of her lungs.
"Alright, take some deep breaths. How you feeling Komu?"

Komugi Yadou
..She was starting to feel really dizzy. Did Igen say something..? She was having a hard time understanding what he was trying to say, all her ears caught was the sound of his voice. Her pupils were broad, a misty unblinking look to them as exhaustion and confusion were piling up; what was happening..? Was she really having that hard a time breathing? It almost reminded her of the flood water she fell into as a kid, bobbing underneath the surface, almost pinned down. It was a good thing Taro was there, or else she would've been dead...
Her body felt like it moved, as numb as it felt. Already sparse breaths were growing shallower and less obvious, staring up at the blurry night sky, energies burning at the edge of her dulling senses...
Only the sensation of a pressure relieving woke her back up, slow blinks as her lungs felt lighter in her chest, a hard cough leading a series of deep breaths as she realized she could inhale properly, her windpipe clearing out as she got several breaths of sweet, breathable air. A hard blink or two focused her vision, though her body still felt weak and numb.
"...Mugi, baka..." Her voice sounded stronger, though her eyes fluttered shut in relief, "Alive, by the way... Legs not listening..."

RANMA GEKIRETSU
Ranma was still there… right? Yes, he was still there – he began whistling softly to make sure he was still conscious, since most of his skin was sore from the burn marks. Damn fucking Ceros… but he still got out easy, thanks to Komu’s efforts… the same efforts that led her to this condition.
It was heavy on his chest, as if something deep inside blamed him for not being able to support her properly. All he could’ve done was being her shield with his Bakudō, but if the Arrancunt focused on long-range destruction, getting within CQC range was so tedious and next to impossible when fearing a rain of Reiatsu blasts falling down on you at any moment. Only at the end, when he got within range to strike the Arrancar himself, did they actually change the tide of battle – only for the dipshit to wave and flee…
It was pretty fucking revolting, y’know?
“…” Ranma made sure to keep taking deep breaths, no longer whistling to wake himself up, “Komu, you're there…?” He was a bit too used to being treated with Kaidō by other Shinigami, hence his rather careless, jolly exterior in spite of his injuries. It was moreso a way of coping, above all. “Komu… I mean, Mugi… I think you wrecked my arm… ‘cuz it stings… hehe… hehehee…”
It led into a soft chuckle as Ranma found something humorous about the ordeal, although he was still being treated from exhaustion, so he didn’t even know what was so funny about it all. “S-Sorry, breathing, breathing…”

Igen smiled to himself, pleased as he promptly healed the puncture points along her back, gently covering them with a bit of bandaging until the skin healed up. He didn't want to push her body and use up too much of her energy enforcing healing. Better to just stop the bleading, patch, and then her body would close the holes themselves in no time. Focusing on his Reikaku, he gently let a soft gentle tap on her back sound. Listening for any residual crackling as he inspected her internal cavity for any more fluid buildup.
It didn't look like it. She sounded better as well, she would just be exhausted. Letting out a sigh, he rubbed his neck and took a step back. "Alright Miss Yadou. You will need sojme rest to finish mending the rest of the way. Ko, if you don't mind getting her to a recovery ward." He noted softly to his Zanpaku'to, the stripes peeling away fromhis body as Koozoku promptly returned to her human form as Igen looked over Ranma. Nothing too bad, definitely nothing that would need immediate attention. Still, he replenished the youngm an's spirit energy a bit, not that hed be able to get back into the fight, but his body would be able to use that energy to mend himself. Nothing life threatening. Once they were in a recovery warded zone, one of the run of the mill healers would finish restoring their spiritual energy.
"Both of you. You'll be taken to a secured and concealed area for recovery. Ko and these squad members will make sure you get there safely. Stay there, and recover. That's an Order." He noted firmly as he stood up and picked back up his things, looking around as he gestured for the rest of the rescue team that wasn't taking the two to the recovery area to get ready to move out again. A few had already split off to look for more shinigami in rough shape. He felt relief, that Komugi was going to make it.
But he still couldn't rest or stop. He had a lot more shinigami that needed care. And with a flicker, he and the team vanished back out to the battlefield, and the remaining medics would begin the process of taking the pair to a concealed recovery ward.
