Chapter 53: Icha’s Internal Bleeding

“That’s weird,” Icha coughed. “Are you sure you can heal me?”

“Absolutely,” He nodded. “The alternative is we lose you, probably before we can even get some food in your stomach. I’m sorry, but that’s the condition you’re in. It’s a miracle you survived this long with internal bleeding.”

Icha took a moment to think about it. She was desperate, she was in pain, but if some guy felt her up and she ended up dying anyway, she’d be angry even beyond the grave. It was a tough decision.

Eventually, she broke, and nodded, “Okay. But we must never speak of this.”

“Fine by me,” He said. “Lay on your back.”

Jimmy was nervous, he was uncomfortable, but they put a lot of work in today, just to bring some people home. He did not plan to let her die on Gutaxun’s back. Every single survivor was valuable, because otherwise he’d have to go back home, and tell the tribe that practically a brigade of hunters were wiped out, which was a lot harder to explain than grabbing someone’s breasts. He had to heal all four of them.

To leave her with some dignity, Jimmy did not strip any of her clothes away. He didn’t have to.

Instead, he slipped his hands below her fur cloth that covered her breasts, and grabbed a hold of them. His touch was soft, and her breasts were softer.

Anna wanted to inspect what he was doing. She was desperate to figure out if he was trying to cheat on her with another woman, but she couldn’t look back. She had to steer Gutaxun, and make sure he’d walk out of the High Grasslands.

Anyway, after grabbing Icha’s breasts, he had to get to the even more awkward part. He had to get himself aroused, while also hiding that he was aroused, to spare her, and everyone else’s dignity.

After he started, Jimmy tried to listen, and connect with her blood under other, non-sexual circumstances. He was desperate for an alternative, and he tried to find one for five solid minutes, but he didn’t make any progress. He was losing precious time.

’Ah, fuck it.’ He thought. ’I’m gonna get traumatized today, but at least I’m bringing four hunters home, safe and sound.’

At some point, Icha barely cared that she was being touched. She was no longer in fight-or-flight mode, she was relaxed, which had a counter-productive effect on her, because her body wasn’t fighting to keep her alive anymore. It was slowly shutting down.

Jimmy finally felt a bit of arousal as he gently shuffled her breasts around, and he sank into deep panic when he noticed that her body had started to shut down. If he failed to heal her, or in this case, save her in time, then the other three survivors will not let him get near them. He had to move quickly.

With great effort, he tried to concentrate. Ideally he wanted to slip into that trance-like state, and unlock the very peak of his magical abilities, but he was far from slipping into a trance. He was in panic, and quite frankly, he did not care about Icha enough to slip into a trance-like state for her. He didn’t even know this woman, he was just unlucky enough to be their healer, under very awkward circumstances.

’Come on…’ He thought. ’Where’s the bleeder?’

Despite the fact that his abilities were limited right now, he was making quick progress under these very poor circumstances. He was doing well, it was just that Icha was very close to death, so he had to speed things up as best as he could.

Each heartbeat, and every ounce of blood that Icha had, rang like a soft melody in his ears. He could even estimate a percentage of how healthy each organ of hers was, but the problem was that her organs were not bleeding. She had popped a few blood vessels, and these particular vessels weren’t as easy to find.

’Please,’ He pleaded silently. ’Don’t die on me…’

Desperate, he squeezed Icha’s breasts a bit harder, and in terms of pressure, this wasn’t enough to shock her awake, but he finally got a good feeling of where each and every blood vessel of hers was, and found the few that were bleeding!

“There we go,” He whispered, though he still tried to remain focused. “Damn, that’s a lot of internal flipping bleeding.”

Barely anyone understood what he was saying, but he had already started the healing process. Icha might make it.

To rid the problem of her internal bleeding once and for all, he quite literally sucked the blood that had bled into her body, right back into her vessels! This took a solid minute to achieve after he found the bleeders, but the rest of the people could literally see the bruisings on her underbelly disappear quickly, in real time!

After he sucked the blood back into her vessels, he then sped up the healing process of her damaged vessels, and in two minutes time, she was as good as new. Her heartbeats started becoming more regular, they increased, and a moment later, she woke up!

Icha had a headache, on account that he had forced her heart to pump blood faster after he healed her, but she was otherwise doing well. Even her organs, who had not been getting enough oxygen because of her internal bleeding, started recovering. In a week’s time, any bit of organ damage she might have suffered, would completely heal.

A minute later, Jimmy pulled his hands away from her breasts, and helped her sit up. Icha was disoriented, but she otherwise seemed fine.

“How are you feeling?” He asked.

“Better?” She groaned. “My head’s killing me, but my belly doesn’t hurt anymore.”

“That’s good.” He nodded. “I’m sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable, but there was no other way for me to help you. Trust me, even I was looking for alternatives.”

“Don’t worry about it,” She said. “You saved my life, kid. I owe you a few chunks of roasted meat.”

Jimmy smiled, and tried to hide his boner. He did not stand up, because he didn’t want to kill any progress he made by making the rest of the survivors uncomfortable.

Instead, he said, “Okay Icha, now stand up, and let your friends get treated.”

Looking at the three other survivors, he asked, “Which one of you needs healing? Please come lay here if you need help, because if you ignore your wounds, odds are you won’t make it home. We’ve been looking for you guys all day, and I can’t in good conscience let any of you die.”
