Ah, thank you Kirjava Deamon for describing that for me! Well for the "get
the guy she wants" thing...that really doesn't apply here...you'll see why in
the next couple chappies...*grins evilly* It has a LOT to do with the "I'm
stuck with a bunch of stupid males" thing.
Well, enjoy chappie!

I felt nothing but searing pain as the fangs sank into my flesh. I cried out in pain and collapsed...
...And the last thing I saw before I blacked out was the rattler's ugly face staring at me.

"...Let's just keep her elevated like this, don't let her move if she wakes up, and I'll go run down to the Warden's for antivenin."
"Well, that's what she gets."
"God, X, can't you see she can die right now?"
I opened my eyes and had an upside-down view of Zigzag. Above both of us was a canvas ceiling of a tent, so I figured they had carried me here. I looked at Zigzag. I guess he had me lying against him, but then I stopped worrying about it as a vicious pain shot up my left leg.
"Fuck!" I nearly yelled. Zigzag looked down at me, his eyes round like saucers.
"Are you okay?" He asked quietly.
"No! My leg is being ripped apart!" I barked. Zigzag just sat there and stared at my wound.
"Where the hell is Pendanski?" Squid said, looking at me, worried.
Soon Pendanski came with a bottle of liquid. I closed my eyes as he treated my wound with the stuff. It hurt more than anything else in the world.
"WHAT THE HELL IS THAT?!" I yelled. Everyone jumped two feet in the air.
"Antivenin. It will help the snake bite." Pendanski said earnestly. I bit hard on my lip to stop from yelling.
"Can't you give her painkillers, Mom?" Zigzag asked. Pendanski shook his head.
"We are not authorized to give minors any medication unless they have a prescription—"
"Fuck the prescription, damnit! Give me the painkillers!" I yelled.
"I wonder if Barfbag was like this." Squid said.

A few hours later, I woke up to see that it was dark inside the tent. I felt someone's head on my shoulder and realized that Zigzag had fallen asleep while watching over me. I looked down and saw that they had bandaged up my leg, but it still throbbed with pain. I tried to move, but then received a snort in my ear and then the head was lifted off of my shoulder.
"What's up?" He asked drowsily.
"Let go of me." I said harshly. I hated physical contact, and it was enough with all those guards handling me when I was arrested.
"Pendanski said you had to stay still." He said.
"Fuck what that idiot says. I gotta go pee." I said. Zigzag's eyes widened and then he turned the brightest shade of red that I've ever seen.
"Okay...uh...I'll carry you." He said.
"No you aren't!"
"Do you wanna go pee or not?" I sighed and eventually let him carry me. He lowered me into a hole and then turned away.
"Um...so...um..." Zigzag stuttered.
"Shh..." I said. Let's face it; I hate noise when I go to the bathroom. When I was done, he helped me out and then we went back to the tent.
"What the heck happened just now?" Squid said, sitting up. He smirked at us.
"Nothing. Zigzag said quickly, putting me down on his cot and then sitting on the floor.
"Aah. I see..." Squid said.
"What, do you wanna escort me to the potty next time, too?" I snapped. Squid blinked. "Keep your smartass mouth shut."
Then, thank God, it was quiet for the rest of the night.
Well, enjoy chappie!
