"What are we going to do with her?" Amelia asked Gourry as she watched the scantilly-clad woman sleep. The woman shifted, caught by a fever dream; sweat beaded her brow and she moaned slightly every now and then.
Gourry just shrugged. "I don't know."
"Well, we can't just leave her...but we have to find Ms. Lina and Mr. Zelgadis..." Amelia added putting a hand on her chin.
Gourry had gone off in his own little world while Amelia had been walking. "What?"
Amelia sighed. He really does have the brains of a jellyfish...and that's giving him credit...
Just then the bushes parted and Lina and Zel walked into the clearing where Amelia and Gourry had been talking.
It was a case of good luck that her and Zel had stumbled across Amelia and Gourry. It was a miracle that Naghus was with them.
"Ms. Lina, Mr. Zelgadis, where have you been?" Amelia asked in her normal, whiny, voice. Lina ignored her as they walked over to Naghus's prone body.
Looking up, Lina asked, "How long has she been out?" Amelia thought for a moment.
"About fifteen to twenty minutes...why?" Lina cursed to herself without answering Amelia's question at all.
"That's barely enough time," Lina commented as she helped Zel pick Naghus up, "We'll have to hurry." Zelgadis nodded as he lifted his share. "Ray Wing!"
As Lina cast the flying spell, her and Zelgadis took off in the direction of the cabin. Amelia and Gourry followed, although more slowly due to the fact Gourry was clinging to Amelia's waist frantically, slowing both down.
In a matter of minutes they had reached the cabin. Landing, they rushed the labored-breathing Naghus inside. They were relieved of their load by Negha, Nigha, Neighas, and Nogha upon entering. They rushed Naghus's body to the back room and placed her in the bed that Naghei had previously used.
Lina and Zelgadis sat in some chairs and waited. AFter a few minutes, soft crying could be heard. Wordlessly, Lina picked up the shovel from its resting place and walked to the door.
