Jerrar gasped and coughed. Grunting in pain.<span style="color: #BF4000"> "It hurts."</span>He murmured. Jerrar hardly moved and his breaths were taken in short and slow. Though the pain was excruciating, Jerrar was glad that it had not been Kiriei that had been hit. He told himself that she was more fragile than him and, although he did not know much about her past, he had been through worse and if she had gotten hit, she may not have survived.  For this he was thankful.<br/><br/>Jerrar was not bleeding and there was no obvious injury except for a visible scratch on the scales from the friction between the Jerrar's smoother scales and the drakes rougher ones.  It was clear that Jerrar tried not to move his side too much and it hurt when Kiriei had moved him.
