He waves his cousin away, then wipes his mouth with his sleeve. "I'm fine." He cringes again when he coughs. He then looks at Miss Pepper - Ivy - who looks at him with slight worry. He doesn't accept it though. He is fine. He thinks. Crossing his arms over his chest, he barely manages to keep a straight face when the pain wells up from under his shirt. He lifts it, but sees no blood underneath.
He then shivers as he watches the snow fall around them. Then he notices the dark smoke rising from under the hood of the car. "no, no, no. We gotta get back. Miss Pepper-" He wheezes, making his way to the car only to stumble over a protruding root. The car is a mess - bullet holes everywhere, shattered glass, and shells scattered along the back and front seats.
