Orien nodded before taking a step into the cold river. Killjoy and River had already crossed but he could feel Killjoy's eyes on him. "I will do everything in my power before i see you get hurt again." As Orien and Aquillia slowly waded in the river Orien made sure to be on alert. A couple times Aquillia almost fell but Orien stayed firm. Once the were in the middle of the river it got a bit to deep, making so you had to swim.

.

Orien was about to start to swim when Aquillia spoke. His eyes went wide as he shot a look to Aquillia, still making sure to keep alert. Orien then took a deep breath, thinking about what to do next. At last he spoke with gentleness filling his voice. "Alright, this might be a little scary but i need you to trust me. Im going to swim under you and get you on my back. When i do this youll be responsible for staying still. If you happen to slip though, i will do everything in my power to get you to shore safely. Oh and Aquillia, try to stay calm." He shot a warm smile to Aquillia before getting ready to dive down.

Brute l Male l Beta l M: Alpha Night

Brute's head throbbed and he could feel the slight trickle of warmth going down his neck, from the wound on his head. He barely heard what his Alpha said but still he said, "I fell down a hill, and cut open my head trying to come back down to get Aquillia and River." He responded. He remembered them and tried to get up on his feet. "I have to get them." He said, attempting to climb on his feet. But eventually he fell hard to the ground, the cold finnaly seeping up him. "I'm useless." He mumbled.

|Sundown|M|Apprentice Medic|Raven|M:Ore, Brute, Night|
Sundown finished his work, and sat by the entry to the den. It was getting late, and he was rather quite worried.

"Ore, I think that Night needs our help. Do you know if there are any scouts around to bring you and me to him? He went off to sit with a hurt wolf, and said to get help if he wasn't back soon." He looked behind at his Mentor, his eyes shinning with worry. He didn't like to worry, and yet it was all that he found himself doing lately. He worried for the upcoming winter, if he used/gotten the herbs correct, and how the others around him thought of him. He didn't want to be known as the medic that was always messing up.

He stood up, and shook his pelt off, before turning around to start and gather what he hoped were going to be useful herbs.

Orien dove under the water after Aquillia didnt say anything. As he rose out of the water Orien felt Aquillia's body lay on his back. Orien then started to swim to the shore. He laughed though as Aquillia spoke, though it sounded more like a grunt. "Grab my scruff if you need." Just then he could feel Aquillia's teeth on his neck. It didnt hurt but he could feel the slight pull. As he was nearing the shore he slipped a bit, making his mouth go under. Orien the quickly got his balance back. He sputtered out water as he could feel his mucless start to ach again.

.

Soon though he was on the otherside, Aquillia and all. He gently slid Aquillia off before sitting down and panting. As he sat down the wind picked up and he shivered. Orien was about to speak when he noticed, for the first time, that Hondo had joined them. He slightly nodded towards his beta before turning to Aquillia. "Are you okay?" Orien was about to say something eles when he realized he should probably keep it their secret. After all, not knowing how to swim could be quite, well embarrsing. But Orien was quite determined to teach Aquillia.

Orien nodded though he was kinda worried about Aquillia. He could see the tiredness in her eye. He then turned to Killjoy after Aquillia asked her question, since he too was curious. He then soon turned back to Aquillia then. Right at that point, Orien saw a flicker of.... sadness?.....Fear?....No, it was doubt. Orien had no idea what Aquillia was going through but he knew that look. He once had that look....Again, for the thrid time that day, memories came rushing back. Though he didnt dwell on it this time, no he had someone who needed comforting. He silently wrapped his tail around the female, hoping to confort her. He didn't want to seem awkward or anything but he just wanted to help.

Brute l Male l Beta l M: Night

Brute let the words soak in. He knew he wasnt weak, but his head throbbing told him otherwise. He took in a deep breath and gathered his strength. He was a Beta he could do anything. He struggled to his paws, before falling down again. He wouldn't guve up on River and Aquilia. He tried again, and this time got on his paws. His vision blurry he looked at his Alpha. "Killjoy is helping them to his camp, they are injured," he said. "I was coming to help." He said and stared out towards the river.
