«We Could Be Legends»

River blinked rapidly, trying to keep her vision clear from the black spots that she knew would soon appear.
She flinched at the feeling of the stuff tumbling out onto her, but awaited the release from the jaws of pain with earnest.
But as the pain didn't dissipate, the muscles and organs didn't knit back together, she groaned. Nothing?
She muttered something incoherent, twisting her head to look at the wound, and winced from both pain and an odd disappointment as she did.
The crystal hadn't worked.
Wolfram threw the pieces of crystal on the ground, becoming more and more frightened. "Why aren't they working?! I thought you said they healed you before?!"
 
Camilla glanced at her phone that laid beside her, giving a confused look as the name 'Taylor' popped up on it. Who's Taylor? She wondered dully, reaching out and answering her phone, moving it to her ear's side as she walked away from the others so that they couldn't hear her conversation. "Hello. Um, who is this?" She rasped weakly.
"Camilla! It's Alice, listen, we have a plan we're headed back to town now, you have to track down Brisa, and get the key out of the bank! Get everyone out of Jessi's house it's not safe there anymore," She paused for a split second trying to decide if she should mention what happened. "JUST go get Brisa, and get the Key, we'll meet you guys uuuuhhh, AT THE PARK! GET BRISA GET THE KEY. We'll be there as soon as we can!"

"Alice!" Wolfram yelped, holding in a bout of sobs. "Get off the frigging phone and help me! Please help me, River has been shot. Please! The crystals aren't working!"

Zachary snapped his fingers urgently at the driver, who had been sitting silently all morning staring dully at the house.
"What?" he groaned in response to the urgent clicking
Zachary shook his head a grin on his face. "I know where it is."

Camilla blinked, fully awake now. "What? Okay, okay, I'll get Brisa and we'll get the key. I'll, uh, see you at the park!" She yelped, hanging up.
She began scrolling through her list of contacts, finally stumbling upon Brisa's name, and dialed it. Come on, come on! (@Thing2LovesChickens )
 
"Alice!" Wolfram yelped, holding in a bout of sobs. "Get off the frigging phone and help me! Please help me, River has been shot. Please! The crystals aren't working!"

Toby looked up. "The crystals aren't working? Here, let me help her." He said calmly, and ran over to River. He put on a pair of gloves, and slowly lifted up her shirt enough for him to see the wound. "Wolfram, get the bottle of water out of my backpack, please. And the bandages. Not the small ones, the big ones. Mrs. Loson, this is probably going to hurt, sorry." He applied pressure onto her wound, trying to slow down the bleeding.

River grimaced, staring up at him. "I... I don't know... They should work..." She rasped, a trickle of blood starting to flow from her mouth.

"Wait, no, Toby, Alice she-" Wolfram hesitated, remembering Alice's warning to not tell anyone. "She can heal her. She has healing powers. ALICE! Put down the frigging phone and get over here now!"

"Until she gets over here, we have to stop the bleeding." Toby replied, still deathly calm.
 
River grimaced, staring up at him. "I... I don't know... They should work..." She rasped, a trickle of blood starting to flow from her mouth.
"River..." Wolfram whimpered softly. "Just hold on, hold on please. Alice is going to heal you. You're going to be ok. I promise you that."
