[This Riku here has seen better days. The room he was slumped against the wall of was in shambles - it looked like there had been a fight there. For once, he actually hadn't started the fight. He'd simply gone to find Roxas and see if he would be willing to help return the last few of Sora's memories. Riku hadn't meant merging the two of them - but Roxas had taken it that way. And attacked.

Riku was slumped against the wall in a pool of blood. It was clear why too. There was kind of two keyblades stabbed into his shoulders. He had a few other cuts, but none of them were nearly as bad. He couldn't even lift his arms to yank the blades out - he was just going to bleed to death against that wall if no one stumbled upon him to help.

There was another, smaller trail of blood, just a few drops here and there, leading away from Riku. It looked like Roxas hadn't gotten away totally unscratched.]

[Blood always got Sora's attention. He couldn't help it, concern was hardwired into his brain. Plus, he was worried. Riku had gone off to find Roxas a while ago and hadn't come back yet...

It didn't take a rocket scientist to figure out what had gone on in here.]

Riku! [He recognizes those keyblades. Sora's tripping over himself to get to the silver-haired male's side.]

[Riku knows that voice. He glances up at Sora, eyes looking at little unfocused.]

S-Sora... hey. [He also wasn't exactly thinking too clearly.]

Riku... [Sora bites his lip, tentatively grabbing at Oblivion's handle to pull it free, tossing it aside.] What happened? [Oathkeeper is next, Sora's really trying to be careful not to hurt him further.]

[He manages to bite back a groan when Sora pulls the Oblivion free, wincing.] Roxas... he took me asking him for help with your memories the wrong way.... [Riku can't stifle the groan at Oathkeeper being pulled out of his shoulder. It hurt a lot, but at least he managed to keep from shouting.]

Sorry! [Sora set Oathkeeper aside and knelt in front of Riku, looking over his wounds.]

Roxas... [Sora muttered the name. How could Roxas do this? Freaking jerk! He was gonna pay for this...]

What should I do? You're hurt pretty bad...

I-it's fine. Not your fault. [Those wounds are bleeding more now, since they aren't stopped by the blades.]

Can you find a potion or something?

Y-yeah... Be right back! Don't die! [Detirmined face, Sora gets up and runs off.]

Yeah... I'll try. [Riku watches Sora run off, cringing. Damn... he really hadn't expected Roxas to be that strong.]

[Riku, you are screwed, and not in the way you'd prefer.

Axel had been following a blood trail, call it morbid curiosity. He was actually wondering if it was Saix still stumbling around half-dead but surprise, surprise. It must be Axel's birthday.]

... Riku? [Oblivion and Oathkeeper on the floor... Most definitely not a good sign. And since the battle obviously took place here, that blood trail must have been leading away. Riku was the only one still there, so...]

What did you do to Roxas?

[That was not a voice Riku wanted to hear. He half looked up at Axel, giving him the best annoyed look he could manage considering that he was slowly dying from blood loss.]

You should be asking what the bastard did to me.

I doubt he attacked you unprovoked.

... Geez, you look like Hell. [Note to self: Roxas needs a reward for that.]

Answer me. [Axel walks over and picks up Oathkeeper, holding it to Riku's throat.] What did you do?

Might as well have...

Thanks, I hadn't noticed. [rolls his eyes]

Please, you can't use a keyblade. [Riku swats it away from his neck - but regrets moving his arm pretty quickly. He cringes, knees moving up to his chest.] Ugh... the rest of Sora's memories are still in Roxas.... I asked him for help - I just wanted him to come with me to find Namine - and he took it the wrong way and attacked me.....

[That small trail of blood leads down the hallway, quite a good distance away. It leads to a bathroom, where the door is closed.]

[The only deep cut he has is on his thigh. Roxas had yanked off his pants, holding a washcloth to the cut. He'd put a few band-aids on some of his other cuts, but now he was digging through the cupboards, looking for gauze.]

[Axel had followed that blood trail, pausing at the door and knocking lightly.]

Rox...? H-hey, man, are you okay?

[Blinks at the knock, hobbling over to the door. It was hard to walk with a gash in your leg and hold a washcloth to said gash at the same time.]

Axel? [Pulls open the door and pokes his head out. He's wearing his boxers still, but he wanted to make sure it was the Axel he knew.]

Yup. [Will be pushing his way in, thanks. It took you too long to get to the door for his liking, so now he's worried, and you've left a trail of blood on the floor, which he's sure now is not Riku's, but yours. Once in, he closes the door behind him and looks Roxas over...

Heavy sigh.] Ah, geez...

[H-hey, don't knock him over pushing open the door. Roxas was going to let Axel in on his own... oh well though. He probably looks a bit worse than he actually is, because he's splatted with Riku's blood as well as his own. There's a fair amount of blood running down his leg though.]

I'm fine... it's not that bad.

Like Hell it isn't. [Sorry, he hadn't meant to almost knock you over, Roxas. He was afraid you'd be in as bad a shape as you left Riku.]

Here--, uh. [You know what, he wants to get a look at that, and Roxas standing is just making it bleed more. Using his height to his advantage, Axel's lifting Roxas up and making him sit on the counter by the sink. So there. He takes the washcloth from Roxas and wipes at the cut, trying to get a better idea of how deep it is.]

The cut on my leg is the only bad one... the rest is Riku's blood.

H-hey! [Roxas squirms a little when Axel picks him up, though once he's set down on the counter he stills. You could have said something... He winces when Axel wipes at the cut.] That hurts...

Sorry, I just wanna see how deep it is... We could find a way to heal it, otherwise I think you'd need stitches. [He just presses the cloth down, applying light pressure to try and slow the bleeding. Axel takes a moment to check the other cuts on Roxas.]

[half scowls, half pouts] I don't want stitches... how else can we heal it?

[His other cuts are pretty small, and they've all stopped bleeding already.]

[Well that's good, at least. Gotta say, Axel's pretty proud of Roxas for kicking Riku's ass and coming out with just this wound on his leg to show for it.]

Potions? [He's still got those potions from that mage Kairi, and while they're supposed to be kept on his person in case he gets hurt and they'll break open on impact and heal him, he figures they're good enough for this, too. The pouch is pulled out of his coat and one of the vials offered to Roxas.] Pour this on the cut. [He's gonna see if there's anything useful in the medicine cabinet.]

[Hey, Roxas might be a tiny little kid, but he's pretty tough.]

Oh... yeah. [He takes the vial from Axel, looking at it with some interest.] How much, do you think? [Roxas pulls the stopper out of the vial.]

Eh, they're kinda small. And I've got a couple more, so just go ahead and use the whole thing. [There isn't much in the medicine cabinet but bandaids and aspirin. Some antibiotic creams. Stuff you'd find in any other medicine cabinet. Axel's making a mental note right now to stock up on potions and just keep a surplus of them somewhere in their room.]
