Xavi and Donnie
Xavi leaned against the tree, catching his breath as he clenched at his side, blood spilling through his fingers. He searched the ground, stumbled and struggled to get himself upright again. There was a rotting mill just across that stream, he just had to make it there.

Xavi's reaction time had drastically slowed, and he flinched several moments after Donnie had approached him, looking confused and blinking rapidly. "Where did you come from? Who are you?" he demanded. "Leave me alone, don't hurt me."

"Heal what? I'm fine," he coughed, stepping back. The pain in his side intensified, he stumbled and fell. Dots crowded his sight when his head hit the ground and tried to blink them back, ignoring the pain of his bitten tongue. "I'm fine, I need to get to... I need to.. the mill..."

He narrowed his eyes at Donnie, nearly yelling at him to stop but didn't have the reaction for it. "What are you doing? What did you do? Why? Get your wand away from me." He didn't have half the mind to realize the pain was disappearing; his head was still murky. "The mill... You wouldn't understand. Who are you?"

He was quick to push Donnie away and get up himself. "I can stand on my own, thanks," he snapped. "Who the hell are you? What are you doing out here?"

"Oh, I'm sorry, next time I'll find a more private place to die," he bit back sarcastically, gritting his teeth. "I didn't ask you to save me anyway. Continue cycling or whatever. Why are you this far out anyway?"

"I'm not wandering through the woods like you are. I'm actually looking for something," he explained, glaring at the grass. "And I kind of lost my wand, but that's besides the point."

"Why would I tell you?" he said, rolling his eyes. "I literally just met you like five minutes ago while I was simultaneously dying which you so rudely interrupted."

"Considering who I associate with, yes, very deadly secret. But just to humor you, It's Xavier Thomas," he said indignantly. "The safety of my identity is at stake and you're trying to play 'Guess Who?' with me?" he ask incredulously, raising an eyebrow before turning around and heading for the stream. "Well they do say you find the strangest people in the woods."
