Clark had found her another shirt and had cleaned and bandaged the wound in her shoulder. She had only been there with him less than a day and she had been hurt again, but he could see she could hold her own, he was more impressed than she'd ever know. He would have to wait for her to wake again. He tossed the shirt that she had been wearing in the trash, wasnt like he was kind with it to get to the wound, tearing it from her would have gotten him scolded by his mother but she was bleeding badly and he needed to see how bad the wound was. Clark watched her as she slept, he wasnt going to bother her, he wanted to make sure she wasn't bleeding and since he had cauterized the wound she should be fine but never a bad idea to check.
It was several hours before Sasha would open her eyes again, and she gasped when she opened her eyes, both from surprise and pain. She looked around and he moved to her side and looked at her.
"They aren't here."
"You pulled it out?"
"You told me to. So yes I did. It will hurt for a while it was in there deep. Who were they?"
They were from my world but they weren't my people. That means that those that came weren't just from your world but my own. Does any of the ones from this world know of your powers?"
"A select few. Why?"
"What can harm you?"
"Nothing your kind can get." He answered her.
"Help me up." Sasha asked nicely. Clark helped her but looked at her strangely, she pulled one of the arrows from her quiver turned and slammed it into his leg. He about dropped her as the pain shot through him.
"Jesus." He said looking at her. She looked at him sadly, she dropped to her knees as he finally dropped to the floor.
"We are magical creatures. Anything that cant hurt you here from your world can in mine."
"There is something here that can but it came from my home world. But not many know about it. And that would have had to been green. What is it made out of?"
"Here ordinary steel. My world its magical. But I have hurt you. I'm sorry."
"Don't, you shouldn't have to be sorry, I would rather find out this way then by surprise another way. I just have to avoid their arrows."
"And knives. But yes. Will you be alright?"
"I will." He said pulling the arrow free and even that was painful. He waited a moment and then helped her stand back up and helped her back onto the couch.
"Wait here."
"Alright." She said as he walked outside and disappeared. He returned moments later and she could see the bleeding had stopped and the wound was gone.
"How so you heal?"
"The sun. It's also what gives me all of my powers."
"You are a very interesting man Clark."
"Thank you. You should try and rest."
"So should you."
"I will." He answered. He wasnt sure exactly how but he knew he needed rest as much as she did.
"I know you love the woman you called Lois but maybe she would understand if you shared this space with me. Makes me feel safer." She told him.
Clark wasn't sure, but nodded and moved over to the couch, he lifted her and sat down so she lay with her back against him and his arms around her protectively.
He had never had a sibling and if this is what it felt like to have one then he would protect her at all costs. He looked down at the young woman he held in his arms and knew she was worth saving, he really wanted to know why they wanted her so badly. But for now he was going to get some rest.
Outside the figures watched the two people sleep, they knew he was strong and now knew that he could be injured.
"What do we do milord?"
"We wait."
"As you wish milord."
