"Doc, "I said desperately, leaping up despite the aches throughout my body. "Let me- this'll take more than first aid." "Mai, you're hurt!" Josh argued. "She's hurt worse." I snapped. I knelt beside Pepper, and held one hand over the wound to her chest, "This girl spends too much time unconscious." I murmured. I closed my eyes, and reached for my power- much had been used up fighting the demon, so i had to reach deep down- i knew my hair was probably going a little red- roots at least. But i ignored it. I tried to focus on what Willow had taught me about using the connection to the earth to heal, and regrow the damaged tissue. I prayed that it would work, cos otherwise... well, a wound like this... no, i wouldn't even think it.

I suddenly felt a jolt of.....electricity or something.....painful in my chest. I tried desperately to reach the warmth but something was dragging me back..and fast.

I barely understood what was happening, but it didn't take a supernatural genius to figure out what Maya was doing.
Going entirely on instinct, I came up beside her and put my hand on her shoulder, and somehow, without my status as either Soul Sword or Wizard, I gave Maya a portion of my own energy, and that seemed to snap her out of some struggle, and where she had begun to have red roots, suddenly went pink, and then in a flash pure white as her blonde hair lost the few pigments that kept it yellow and her eyes began to spark with power as she focused her healing powers on our friend.
As Pepper was finally and ultimately healed, almost good as new, my hand finally detached from Maya's shoulder, her hair went back to yellow-blonde, and I collapsed from exhaustion behind her.
"Josh! What--"
"I'm all right," I waved her off, quickly catching my second wind. Avalon's training had been more exhausting than the little bit of energy drain there. "You however, are still injured, now hold still while I fix you up Beautiful." I ordered.

"I'm fine." I said flippantly, "Just a couple of scrapes, they'll be gone by tomorrow all on their own... but what did you do??"

"Beats the hell out of me," I answered as I bandaged up one 'scrape' that just happened to be bleeding profusely.
"One second you're about to go redhead like Willow, trying to scrape together enough energy for a healing spell, the next, my hand is on your shoulder," I tape on some band-aids around a couple of very minor, but possibly irritating scratches, "and I somehow managed to transfer a portion of my energy to you, which seemingly made your hair go white instead of red, and Pepper looks just fine, while you look like you've been through a warzone. Twice."

"Im fine." I insisted. "I'm a slayer, i'm built for this." I said sincerely, looking him right in the eyes, "I swear, im fine." I kissed him softly, and turned back to Pepper. "Pepper? Sweety, can you hear me?"

I voices...everything.was well.......swimming in front of me. Jessy's head came into view above me, "J...Jessy....did I....did I kill him" I asked as I tried to sit up and winced as I noticed a throbbing pain in my chest.

"Hunh," I grunted. "She didn't even react to the 'Pepsi' remark."

"Gee, I feel kinda uneeded," I muttered. I reached into my kit and tossed a tub of cream at Joshua. "This might help."
"Is that...?" Charlotte asked, remembering the cream I'd used the first night we'd met. I nodded and she winced. ""She'd gonna kill you."
"That's why I'm standing over here and he's putting it on," I said with a smile.

"Yes, Peps, you killed him. You killed him good. And now you are going to get better."

"I'm fine." I said with a shrug. "Jess?" She nodded, "Just a bruise or two." "Can you move everything?" I asked Pepper.
