The princess winced as his words bit into her. He had done nothing wrong. He had been so kind to her and she had pushed him away. She accepted the drink he gave her, curious about what it was. She slowly drank it as he finished packing their provisions.<br/><br/>When he told her that she had to walk, Crystal wrapped the cloak around her body and moved to the edge of the bed. She handed him the cup then swung her feet to the floor and slowly began to stand. She closed her eyes as pain shot through her body but pushed through. She moved slowly, taking careful steps. A few feet from the bed her knees buckled and she fell to the floor.<br/><br/>Crystal opened her eyes as she fell, her hands hitting the ground hard. She looked up at Hood, clearly upset. One hand reached out to him, cut and bleeding. "Can you help me up please?" She asked him.
