[A portal was opening into the area, that in itself was nothing new, but the people coming through it are a gruesome sight to see. Roxas has a fair amount of blood on him - however the source of all the blood is the Axel he is dragging through the portal. Axel is bleeding profusely from his torso, where parts of his guts are trying to spill out from under Axel's arm that is pressed against the wound. Axel got into something of a one sided fight with a Saïx.

Roxas is putting Axel down on the ground, on his back, as gently as he can. He's sticking next to Axel, but he's clearly looking around the room, trying to find someone to help.]

[Roxas looks a bit more relaxed now, since Axel seems to be healing some. He's watching Kairi as she works, but his hand is still clamped around Axel's arm.]

You must have really made Saïx mad...

[He's careful about drinking that potion, but he can at least get it down without choking. He finishes it before answering Roxas.]

W-would you believe that... I really d-didn't? [He winces as a small stab of pain flares up in his belly] He just... I didn't see it coming...

[sighs and leans back, rubbing at her forehead which just smudges more blood, oh well. she wants to wait for the healing potion to finish before making her next suggestion, which should finish up most of the healing. so instead she watches the two for a moment]

He just... lost it again, huh? [Roxas rubs his thumb lightly up and Axel's arm, letting out a small sigh.]

Yeah, though I probably could--

... Have been a bit more careful.

[Talk about a headrush. That potion is definitely working...]

Should wear off soon...

[lightly taps the remaining potion]

When it does, you'll be drinking this. It'll put you in a healing sleep for a short while. Should heal up anything that's left, and take away some of the soreness that's probably going to accompany what's left of your recovery.

[A slight nod.] Okay, but... As much as I like the floor, think I could relocate before I take that one? Somewhere... More comfortable? Less bloody?

Of course, of course...

[looks to Roxas consideringly]

Can you carry him?

[looks between Kairi and Axel] Uh... sort of.

[Roxas is easing Axel up, trying not to cause him much pain. Axel was too tall for the blonde to actually carry, and a bit too heavy, but he could at least get the redhead on his feet with most his weight resting on Roxas. And he could open a portal to their room so they didn't have to walk far.]

C-careful... [Axel warns, wrapping an arm around the blond's shoulders for extra support as he carefully gets to his feet. His coat feels about twenty pounds heavier from all the blood it's soaked in...]

I know... [Roxas takes a few tentative steps, lugging most of Axel's weight around his shoulders before motioning to Kairi and heading through the portal. They are in a room now, where Roxas is lightly sitting Axel down on the bed.]

[gathering her things, she forces herself not to stop and study the portal as it's far different from her own kind. instead she walks briskly through it, looking around the room briefly before setting her bag down near the bed. she pulls the stopper from the green-blue potion and waits]

Alright, you better get comfy because you'll be passing out pretty much as soon as you finish drinking this.

[Axel's careful not to bend too much in the middle as Roxas helps him to the bed, sitting carefully on its edge before swinging his legs up so he can lay down. At Kairi's warning about being comfortable, Axel strips his gloves off and tosses them aside, looking questioningly down at his coat. The chains are unclipped and he unzips it, at least pulling his arms out of the bloodsoaked sleeves and pulling the sticky cloth off from his stomach. He'd have to get up again to get it out from under him, though, and he's not sure he could manage that without ripping something open again.]

All right... [He lays back, head on the pillows. This is much better than the floor.]

[she smiles gently and places the potion at his lips, slowly tipping it back. as gruesome as this has all been, she's seen worse and oddly enough it's reminded her of home, making her expression turn a little wistful. she leans back as the flask empties, sighing softly.]

[Roxas is trying to make Axel more comfortable, fussing over him a bit. He really wishes he could pull that blood soaked cloak off, but.. he doesn't think he could without hurting Axel.

The blonde glances at Kairi, watching her work.] Thanks... if there's anything I can do to repay you....

[Axel drinks the potion, and even as it's going down he can feel the drowsiness settling in. Roxas' fussing makes him smile a little; usually he's the one doing the fussing instead of the blond. When the potion's empty, Axel's very quickly out like a light...]

[puts the empty flask back into her bag, looking back to watch the faint green hum of magic under Axel's skin as the potion does its job. her eyes turn to Roxas and she smiles]

It's fine, I was happy to help.

[she sighs and starts looking through her bag, eventually pulling out two small, black pouches and a few tiny vials of the red potion from before. she tucks the vials into the pouches, something that doesn't seem like it should work, before holding them both out to Roxas]

Here, in case either of you get into another fight. Just tuck the pouches inside your clothing and don't worry about the vials breaking, they're enchanted. Made for carrying into battle and all that.

[gives a small, somewhat strained smile back] Still... if you ever need a favor or something... it would be the least I could do.

[Roxas watches her curiously as she puts those vials into the pouches, blinking when she holds them out to him. He takes them though.]

That's pretty useful... thanks a lot.

Alright... I'll keep that in mind.

[smiles and closes up her bag, standing and brushing some hair from her face]

Do you want me to stick around until he wakes up to make sure he's all healed? He should be fine, but...

[shrugs, still smiling]

No, it's alright... I've got stuff that can heal him if he still needs it.... just nothing good enough to fix what happened...

[nods and dismisses her bag, which vanishes into thin air]

Good luck, then. I'm glad I could help.

[she raises a hand and magic sparks in mid-air, swirling green and blue and purple before forming a portal of some sort, a room barely visible on the other side]

[He has to admit, the magic portal she just summoned is a lot cooler than the portals of darkness he normally sees. But that's besides the point.]

Thanks again.

Not a problem.

[bows slightly and waves before heading through the portal, which shimmers before closing with a hiss like water on hot metal]
