Gray could hardly see for the pain from his beating for stealing food as a guard shoved him into his cell for the night. Oh he had known better, he really had, but the little scrap of fish left from his owners' extravagant dinner mixed with not eating anything for nearly three days made him abandon his training for that brief second. What made the beating particularly sting is that he hadn't even gotten the morsel to his mouth. So along with his stomach cramping from hunger his back was now bloody and raw and the offending hand broken.

The young boy curled up on the hard rock floor and cried silently, wondering if anyone would ever come to rescue him. "Mama...Papa...Big Brother....Where are you?" He whispered, closing his eyes and trying to sleep despite the discomfort and pain.

He dreamt of Boeshane and its night time chill, the scent of it ocean air and the sounds of home. It was a bitter sweet dream one that lead to confusion when he woke up to a bitter cold. Gray slowly opened his eyes and looked around in utter surprise and loss as he stared out at a field of snow in front of him and buildings behind him.

Where in the Universe was he?

	"No need. Happy to help." Rose smiled sweetly up at him, checking the cast before tidying everything away. When she had finished, she looked back at him. "It's very simple, your cast, but it can do. I'm sure they'll have somewhere around here that can help. And...I have a friend, I'm sure he could come up with something far more better." (Reply to this) (Thread)

Andy noticed the yawn and frowned slightly. The little boy had said he was tired when Andy had first gotten to him.

"Hey, don't thank us, buddy, that's what friends are for," he said confidently. "You still tired, huh? Want us to get you back to your own room so you can get some sleep? We can explain about this place on the way and you can ask for a lock on the door so no one can get in while we're away..." he offered.

	He studied Rose carefully. "Would...would your friend actually help me?" Gray bowed his head again before it snapped back up. He stared in surprise at Andy. "Friends? ...you'll...you'll be my friend?" He looked at Rose. "You too?" (Reply to this) (Parent)
