Bab 560: Chapter 559: Boss Fight (1)

I took deep, even breaths as I sat against the wall, ignoring the consistent thrumming coming from the heart just around the corner and dealing with the headache that lingered in the back of my skull, trying my best to keep myself focused on something besides the pain as I stared at the ground.

Jahi approached me and crouched down, staring at my face as she lifted my chin to get a better look at me, her amethyst eyes slightly worried as she looked me over.

"You alright Kat? Both you and Anput are really taking a hit with this aren't you..?"

Tilting my head to the side, Jahi caressed my cheek as she heard me reply "I'll be fine... but I think we should get going now."

Her thumb brushed just under my eye before she helped me to my feet, her hands reassuring as they enveloped my own, before I smiled wryly as she rested one of them on my head, fondling my ears playfully as she smirked at me.
