When Shina was found, she was in bad shape. She had a high fever and was semi-conscious, fiercely guarded by Xi Wan in his beast form, who refused to let any other Beastmen near.
The male Beastman guarding the Water Prison frantically reported the matter to Hiro. By the time Hiro rushed over, Xi Wan had just swatted away a Beastman who tried to enter and rescue Shina, sending him flying with a single slap of his tail.
Hiro stood outside the Water Prison, his brow furrowed. He looked with exasperation at Xi Wan, who was guarding Shina with his life, and said in a deep voice, "Xi Wan, she's in bad shape. If you don't want her to die, hand her over. I'll take her to the witch doctor."
Xi Wan's thick tail was wrapped tightly around Shina's waist. His eyes, a mix of gold and red, watched Hiro coldly as he said in a frigid tone, "I won't give her to you."
"She is my female. It is only right that we live and die together."
