My first fight

((This is actual log of the RP from 14th March where Kendra almost drowns and has her first fight .. with herself.))

Kendra Trefoil reaches out for the birdie as it flies over the creek as she leans over to it she loses her balance on the bank letting out a scream as she falls into the water

Kendra Trefoil thrashed her arms and legs fratically as she gasped air when she rose above the surface before falling under again

Niyol Clawtooth: *Niyol wanders slowly back over to the cabin but stops when he hears thrashing. When he sees his sister's head above water, he dives into the water. He knows how to swim but he's still just a child and gets swept up into the current with her. But at least he can keep his head above water to get to her*

Niyol Clawtooth: Sissy!

Rith Valiant blinked when she came to see Niyol going diving into the creek... Her tail fluffed out, mostly cause she didn't like water that much... but she'd soon hop in farther down the way... Not needing much effort to step through the strong current towards them. One arm going for Niyol, the other for Kendra.

Niyol Clawtooth: Saves sissy. *He sputters coughing*

Kendra Trefoil movements slow to a stop as she starts to fall unconscious the current starting to take her further downstream, Rith just grabbing her in time

Niyol Clawtooth: *His feet catch a large rock just as Danae moves to grab him. He shuffles it off* Saves sissy. *He reaches for some branches and tries to pull himself out once he's sure the woman has his sister*

Rith Valiant had Kendra easy out of the water, but she snagged a hold of Niyol just the same whil he was trying to get up to bank. One foot planted on the side of the bank, and she launched all three of them with a neko-sized hop. Kendra's breathing, exhausted as she was... was a good enough sign. Putting Niyol on his feet though, since Rith's all about picking up kids... she'd motion him on. " Come on, back to the house. Your sister and you will both be cold. "

Rith Valiant pretty much nudges the door hard with her shoulder.. Unlocked when she rushed out with her jacket... Which is soaked now.

Niyol Clawtooth: *He refuses to go onto the carpet while drenched. He tries to back up out of Danea's grasp to go outside and shake himself out*

Kendra Trefoil was drifing in and out of consciousness in the woman's arms seeming to wake only to cough up water before passing out again

Rith Valiant glanced at Niyol getting away from her, but she'd go to the couch, grabbing the blanket she'd used earlier to wrap Nerio and Kendra up. She'd wrap up just the little girl this time, not wanting to undress her since the kids weren't that used to her... But the blanket would help a bit. " Kendra? " She mostly wanted a response really, settling the little girl on the couch.
Kendra Trefoil would open her eyes wide as she coughed up more water her eyes moving around in a panic she breathed heavily as she looked at the woman "Dada" she whimpers before coughin some more

Rith Valiant kept Kendra still, uttering a soft sort of purr despite how miserable the wet cat was at this point. " Shhh. Just calm down, kitten. You're inside, just chilly. Your dad'll appear, I just need to keep an eye on you and Niyol for now. "

Niyol Clawtooth: *Once he's shaken himself out he races into the house avoiding the carpet and trying to find his father* Padre!!!

You: Tears were now visible on her face as she was drying off she repeated over and over "Dada" too weak to shout but too frightened to be with a stranger she wanted the only person who ever comforted her.

Niyol Clawtooth: PADRE!!! *He yells, then starts spewing forth in a strange mixture of Navajo, Japanese and italian his fearful blatherings about his sister falling into the river and him trying to save her but she leak's leaking water from her mouth and not waking up.*

Rith Valiant frowned as Kendra cried over it, but she'd hold up the dry bear and made a soft little voice. " Hey there, Kendra. Don't cry! Dada'll be here soon! " Yes... She was talking... through the bear... In a gruff teddy voice.

Nerio Yoshikawa doesn't seem to respond for a moment as he continued to do his chin-ups. He listened to his son babble and simply says, "Ya call me daddy or Canis" *he jumps down from the bar and looks at Niyol with a shake to the head* "Always some sort of some shit goin on"

Kendra Trefoil was desperately frightened but the apparent sight of her bear talking to her made her seem to pause a moment before her face creased up more as confusion was added to her woes and she called again "dada dada" her amrs weakly tryiing to get out of the blanket to try to find him

Niyol Clawtooth: Daddy. Sissy is hurt. I tries to saves 'er buts .... *He bows his head*

Rith Valiant 's shoulders drooped when Kendra just got upset again. " ... " Kittens were easier. Mew mew. Play wrestle, give milk... chase around stuff. Her ears drooped considerably, shivering at the feeling of her tail, pants and jacket soaked. Shirt half-see-through... She stuck the bear in Kendra's arms and moved back out the door instead. She needed to wring out her tail, and the kid likely wouldn't stop the tears until she had to.

Nerio Yoshikawa just stares at Niyol for a long time, "Ya run outta the house like a cryin bitch 'n yer sister follows...feel better?" *He grunts and heads downstairs. No, he wasn't the best parent in the world. He was too cold-hearted for kids it was looking like especially the past week where he'd been pushed to his extreme limits and still in recovery but never having the moment to rest*

Nerio Yoshikawa: "Always drama..everydamnwhere...always drama" *he muttered as he went downstairs*

Rith Valiant stared down at her jeans, heaving a breath before she was tugging them off. Wringing out the heavy water in the denim while she'd tug her trench closed-ish around her legs so she didn't show off.

Kendra Trefoil coughs up more water and continues to cry her eyes looking frantically for her daddy too weak to move or even hold her teddy "dada" she whimpered weakly

Niyol Clawtooth: *He moves to the window and goes to lay down at it. Looking outside at the stars, his clothes and hair still drenched. He becomes silent*

Nerio Yoshikawa walks over to the couch and as he looks at his daughter all he thinks about is his mother for some reason as she laid there and he wanted to scream at her to get up but he doesn't.

Kendra Trefoil is shivering and crying weakly as she looks up at Nerio her arms raising just a little as she coughs up more water her eyes looking at him pleadingly

Rith Valiant frowned with how much water she'd rung out of her jeans... Holding them up to peek at the 'damage' really before she'd just drape it over the wood and sat down on the deck. Eyes shutting before she'd reach to grab her tail to try and squeeze some of the water out of the fluff that once was.

Nerio Yoshikawa was a fixer, he fixed things and with little concern for hugging and less room for sympathy. It's how he kept his other family together...get the job done. He picked his daughter up without a word and took her upstairs to change her into something dry

Kendra Trefoil leaned into him as he picked her up simply happier in his arms she hadn't the strength to wrap her arms around his neck she simply leaned her head on his shoulder suddenly aware she hadn't seen Niyol since they were both in the water "Bobo?" she whimpered as Nerio carried her upstairs

Nerio Yoshikawa puts her down to change her out of her wet clothes, "I dunno..yer brother runs off more than I used to"

Niyol Clawtooth: *He remains quiet at the window. Just looking out. A long drawn stare over his features.*

Kendra Trefoil sits as he changes her tears still flowing down her cheeks although silently as she hasn't the strength to make any loud noise, her eyes still full of fear, another coughing fit as he changes her, no water this time as her lungs seem to be mostly cleared. Still shivering a little despite being taken out of the wet clothes her hair dripping she keeps her eyes locked on Nerio

Nerio Yoshikawa heads into the bathroom to get a towel to dry her hair. He does this without word as he kneels down next to her

Niyol Clawtooth: *his brown eyes slowly gaze over the room and latch onto the impliment his father was using before. He gazes slowly for a box. He gets up slowly from the window and moves to grab the box of building materials and put it under the equipment. He looks up slowly at it and moves to clammer onto the box*

Nerio Yoshikawa wishes Niyol would talk to his father and ask how to do things instead of just doing it on his own. Maybe his father would feel more needed then

Nerio Yoshikawa: "Did yer mother only buy pink?" *he asks as he goes through her drawers looking at her clothing*

Kendra Trefoil sniffs as she starts to settle as he dried her hair looking up at him his silence bothering her now .... thinking he was angry with her she reached out to him her little hand gently brushing his face as he dried her hair "Dada?" she said hoarsely

Niyol Clawtooth: *He falls off the equipment as the box moves. There is a clammer from upstairs as the box falls to its side. Niyol falls on his ass.*

Nerio Yoshikawa finishes drying her hair the best he can without a blow dryer which he never bothered to buy since he liked to let his hair air dry. He puts the towel down next to her and goes to get a comb to comb her hair out.

Nerio Yoshikawa comes back and does that

Nerio Yoshikawa hears the ruccus upstairs, figuring it was Niyol trying to break onto the roof again and he just shakes his head, not having the strength yet to actually get angry anymore

Kendra Trefoil weakly tried to cuddle into him as he combed her hair his silence really bothering her, on the plus side it kinda made her forget for a moment at least what had just happened

Niyol Clawtooth: *He shakes his head out, growling slightly at the boxes before getting up. He gives them a bit of a kick before he leaves things there and tries hitting the grey monster. An image of his father hitting it back in the garage coming to him. He attempts to imitate giving it a few punches with his little fist*

Niyol Clawtooth: *He bounces around on the ground, throwing jabs and lunging at the bag. He winces a bit at the bag being so hard but he doesn't care. He remembers... and something clicks in his mind. He hits the bag harder. Faster, quicker in time to the memory in his mind*

Nerio Yoshikawa was the kind of guy that liked to move on from something bad happening, it's why he hated when everyone fussed over him after he'd been hurt bad. He didn't like to be reminded of it. He figured this would be the best thing to do now too. He finished combing her hair out and tied it back up in its little pigtails she had before. He had long hair, he knew how to do that. As he finished he looked around, not sure what to do next, others always seemed to take care of the entertainment portion of his kids. He stood up with a heavy breath and headed downstairs and pondered how to childproof the home better. He headed into his office and sat at his desk and started drawing out a plan of the house. He looked up from his desk never having felt to detached from his son more than he was now.

Niyol Clawtooth: *He slips and falls on his ass again, making a clattering as his head hits the corner of the box. He blinks, staring blankly at the ceiling for a moment before sitting up and going back to hitting the bag after kicking the boxes away from him, which made even more of a ruckus. He growls at the boxes and goes back to hitting the bag in imitation of his memory... *

Kendra Trefoil watched him leave and looked about, with no daddy, no bobo, no Rena and no teddy she suddenly felt very alone. She summoned some strength to find her feet again still a little shakey as she slowly quietly moved downstairs seeing teddy on the couch she moves to get him then sits in the doorway of the office silently watching Nerio as she hugged the bear.

Niyol Clawtooth: *He bows his head. He's doing something wrong... He doesn't know what but his hands hurt too much. he puts them to the side and goes to go downstairs*Niyol Clawtooth: *He steps slowly around the corner. He smiles that his sister is alright and then looks up to his father.* Daddy... *He says quietly*

Nerio Yoshikawa: "What?" *he asks without looking up from his work*

Kendra Trefoil turns and gives Niyol a tired weak smile hearing his voice but is otherwise silent she looks back to Nerio and pulls Teddy closer a slight frown on her face

Niyol Clawtooth: I'm sorry for running away and cause of me Sissy got hurt. *His clothes still drip and his hair clings to his face from where he jumped in after her* ....ands... I's sorry for nots being a warrior.... wills.... wills yous come helps me beats up the grey monster?

Nerio Yoshikawa stops writing as he hears his son and looks down at the paper for a long time as if he were letting the words sink into his head and deciphering them. He puts the pen down and turns in his chair to look at Niyol, "Ya know. I dunno wha colour eyes ya got anymore" *he shook his head trying to figure out where that came from* "Ya need ta get outta yer wet clothes first 'n wha grey monster?"

Niyol Clawtooth: The one in the attic.... that... that you let me punch long time ago whens I was little.... Remembers?... ats da garage?

Nerio Yoshikawa pulls his chair out and stands up, "Ya mean the punchin bag.." *a slight smile spreads across his lips as his son asks him for help in something and he nods* "Aight..lets get ya dry first, aight?"

Niyol Clawtooth: okays *He moves to ruffle his sissy's hair* yus okay squirt?

Kendra Trefoil giggles a little as he ruffled her hair only to be sent into another coughing fit

Nerio Yoshikawa moves to Kendra and scoops her up in his arms, "She'll be ok..just got a nice shock"

Niyol Clawtooth: *He nods slowly and then begins to shake out his body again. His hair flinging back and forth trying to dry. It poofs a bit in some parts. He smiles a bit up at his father*

Kendra Trefoil leans into her daddy as he picks her up still tired and weak and frightened. She rests her head on his shoulder with a small smile on her lips.

Nerio Yoshikawa: "Ya think ya can take the glasses off for awhile so I can see my boy?" *he asks as he moves towards the stairs with Kendra in his arms to go upstairs to show his son how to hit the bag*

Nerio Yoshikawa: "Look Kendra..I'm buildin you 'n Rena a dance studio"

Kendra Trefoil looks at the reflection of herself in her father's arms and reaches out to it curiously looking back at Nerio then to the reflection of him .. reaching out again "Dada?"

Niyol Clawtooth: *He moves to slowly take off the glasses as he follows to the attic.... he wobbles unbalanced as the world is two different shades of colours. Having gotten use to seeing everything through the colours of the lenses. He blinks in confusion no understanding why the world looked..... funky without the glasses*

Niyol Clawtooth: whys da world looks funky?

Nerio Yoshikawa: "Cause yer used ta them glasses on yer face. Ya ain't removed them since ya was 'bout Kendra's age. Now yer seein the world the way it should be"

Niyol Clawtooth: *He blinks and rubs at his brown eyes* I's don'ts likes it.

Nerio Yoshikawa smiles to him, "Ye'll get used ta it again. In fact ya might even get ta where ya like the new colours insteada just red and blue"

Kendra Trefoil was still fascinated by the second daddy she was seeing ... never having seen a full length mirror before .. she reached towards the reflection again before looking back to her daddy who was holding her with a confused frown "Dada?"

Nerio Yoshikawa walks closer to the mirror and sets Kendra down next to it so she can explore its effects

Niyol Clawtooth: *He still rubs at his eyes shaking his head trying to clear his vision*

Nerio Yoshikawa looks back at Niyol, "Ya still got yer wet clothes on"

Kendra Trefoil gasps as the other daddy moved forward as her daddy did ... then the person he was carrying was set down right in front of her as her daddy set he down she looked up at Nerio her eyes wide with amazment she pulled the teddy up to her face to hide shyly as she always did with strangers peeking out to see the other little girl with exactly the same teddy also peeking from behind it.

Niyol Clawtooth: *He shakes himself out of his wet jacket. Putting back on the glasses so he could see what constatuted for him. As normal.*

Nerio Yoshikawa heads over to the punching bag and motions to Niyol to follow, "So...tell me whatcha wanna know"

Niyol Clawtooth: I's can'ts remembers hows yus hits its rights... see... watch... watch mes...... *he bows his head a bit* I's stills wants tas be's likes yus daddy i's justs... don'ts knows hows...*He tries to start imitating the memory again. Making three quick jabs and an upper cut like motion but its skewed to the side and he's hitting the side of his fist, thus causing more pain than necessary and he bounces a bit too much*

Kendra Trefoil frowned at the other little girl having a teddy like hers .. her teddy was special .. her daddy gave it to her .. it was the most important thing she had and it bothered her that someone else had one too. She got to her feet a little shakily as her body was still recovering and moved to push the other girl over so she grab the teddy. Walking straight into the mirror she bounces onto her ass with a confused frown. From her point of of view the other girl had pushed her over instead but she noticed the other girl had also fallen and tired to quickly get back on her feet to grab the teddy only to the bounce off the mirror again and end up on her ass just staring at her reflection

Kendra Trefoil was too tired and weak for nonsense and she narrowed her eyes at her opponent. Moving onto her hands and knees crawling slowly towards her noting she was doing the same. She looked behind her briefly at Niyol and Nerio and it was only as she looked back and noticed them in the reflection that that she stopped and stared for a long time as she tried to make sense of it

Nerio Yoshikawa looks at Niyol and moves over to the side of the bag and removed his boots, "Imma show ya somethin else too"

Niyol Clawtooth: *He nods slowly stopping... he steps away and side kicks quickly the bag before backing away and giving

Nerio Yoshikawa stretches his body out as he sees Niyol move out of the way and smiles over to Niyol, "Ya know..ya don't gotta just use yer hands." *With that he bounced on his feet and spun around sending a roundhouse kick into the bag*

Kendra Trefoil reached out slowly toouching the glass noticing the other girl doing the same ... she thought she understood but had to prove it to herself as what was in her head was too fantastice to believe. She put the teddy down and stood taking a few steps bac watching the other girl do the same ....she rushes at the mirror smashing straight into in banging her nose and knocking flat on her back her nose bleeding

Niyol Clawtooth: *He grins as the grey monster swings at his father's kick. He waits until it stops swinging and side-steps to high side kick the bag*

Nerio Yoshikawa smiles to Niyol as he does the kick almost perfect, "So much like yer daddy it's scary"

Kendra Trefoil sits up slowly holding her hand to her sore nose frowning as she finds blood on her hand as she pulls it away . ... she clambers up and moves over to Nerio blood dripping from her nose holding her bloody hands up to him "Dada"

Niyol Clawtooth: whys its scary? *He tilts his head. He looks up to his father at the smell of blood.* Daddy. She's hurt again.

Nerio Yoshikawa shakes his head, "Naw..not scary like tha..just a phrase.." *he turns to Kendra and grins* "Yer first war wound huh baby girl?" *he picks her up and heads to the bathroom to get something to wipe the blood up from her face and then shoves a couple wads of toilet paper up her nose as he sets her down on the lid of the toilet after he puts it down*

Kendra Trefoil blinks up at him her nose hurt but maybe she was too tired to cry or maybe too confused about the mirror. She was curious about the red stuff too she was pretty sure she hadn't been near the finger paints today

Nerio Yoshikawa tilts her head back as he holds the cloth over her face, waiting for the bleeding to stop

Niyol Clawtooth: *As his father is dealing with his sister, he goes back to trying to kick at the punching bag. He lifts one leg knee high, hopping a bit on his other leg only to shift his weight. Thrusting the lifted leg down to propel his other leg forward. He pulls his toes back so that he'll hit the bag head on... well... foot on*

Kendra Trefoil wasn't too keen on the stuff up her nose or having her head moved back she frowned at Nerio the pain suddenly hitting her harder "ow Dada" she frowned her eyes getting watery but not really crying.

Nerio Yoshikawa laughs at that and nods, "Yah..tha's an ow..believe me I know" *he knew she didn't understand him but he talked to her anyway like she were an adult. He didn't believe in baby talk* "It'll stop hurtin soon" *he reached into his medicine pouch with his free hand and brought her hand up to the cloth on her face* "Hold.." *he said hoping she'd know what that meant. He then moved to the sink and got a mortar and pestel out of the invisimedicine cabinet, poured some of the herbs into it and then some water. He pushed the herbs around a bit to mix them then got a glass for when they brushed their teeth and put it in the glass, filled it with more water then walked back to her. He reached the glass out to her* "Drink this"

Kendra Trefoil had held when he told her too that much she understood she watched as he prepared the drink letting go of the cloth and taking the glass in both hands sniffing at the liquid

Nerio Yoshikawa: *It would smell like herbs, probably kind of minty. The effects would be to calm her a bit and to ease some of the pain. Not to mention that it would be good for her body. He smiled to her and nodded* "Go ahead. Daddy ain't gonna poison ya or nothin"

Niyol Clawtooth: *He tries to remember his father's movements, to roundhouse the bag. He ends up slipping and falling on his ass. He glares up at the bag. Picks himself up and tries it again. This time twirling and connecting with the bag. He lets out a slight satisfied cute little grunt noise forcing air through his nose*

Kendra Trefoil had never had a green drink before but it smelt nice and she took a sip before tiliting the glass further back to drink it faster holding the glass out to Nerio when she was done, she tried to smile but it hurt and became more of a grimace

Nerio Yoshikawa removes the toilet paper from her nose to see if the bleeding stopped. The herbs might even help her to not look too banged up afterwards, keeping the swelling down and hopefully blackened eyes. He took the glass with a proud smile, "Good girl" *Then moved to put it back on the sink*

Niyol Clawtooth: *He keeps practicing, cross stepping to raise his leg and kick the bag.*

Kendra Trefoil instictively moved to touch her nose as he removed the toilet paper wincing as it was tender. She nodded at the praise and looked down seeing her overalls now with blood on them "uh oh"

Nerio Yoshikawa moves to the other room to get another change of clothes for his daughter and changes her clothes, "Yer gonna 'ave ta get used ta blood if yer gonna be my kid"
