Ashley's POV
Skalidor kept muttering nonsense in his sleep. I mixed together some herbs and made him drink it. "Here. Thissss sssshould ... help you sssssleep." He laid back down, tossing and turning. I coughed. "Ugh, I musssst've caught sssssomething..." I went to the main room and saw Skales. "How issss he?" "Worssssst..." I said and coughed again, this time harder. "Asssshly? Are you alright?" I nodded, still coughing, and started feeling a bit light headed. I swayed a bit and leaned on a nearby table. "Are you ssssure?" Before I could say anything, I fell over and everything went black.
Skales' POV
"Asssshley!" I yelled and ran to her. "Asssshley wake up!" The others ran in as they heard me screaming. "Asssshley...! What happened?!" Fangtom asked. "I don't know, ssssshe jussssst passssed out!" I said, cradling her left head. Acidcus picked her up and took her to the medical bay. I slithered after them. He laid her down. "I believe sssshe caught the sssame sssicknesssss assss Sssskalidor..." he said. They all exchanged worried glances and looked at me. I sobbed at her side and Fangtom placed a hand on my shoulder. "We'll leave... you two alone..." They all left and I brushed her hair from her eyes. "Assshley... pleassse wake up... I can't live without you..." I whispered. Her eyes fluttered a bit and she muttered something. "Assshley, pleassse..." she looked up at me. "Ugh, Sssskalesss? Why'ssss my head... in so much pain?" I hugged her. She smiled, but pushed me away. "You ssshould leave, we don't need you getting ssssick too..." "But-"Pleasssse Sssskalesss...I wouldn't be able... to live with ... myssself if you got ssssick..." I nodded and kissed her forehead, before leaving. I need to get that girl...
Skales' POV
Later that night I crept on the ninja's ship. Pretty stupid to land on a beach where anyone could get on. "Where are they?" I looked in several rooms before finding the right one. I grabbed them each and took them to Orobourus.
