Chapter 6
Healer Returns
The light near the time machine grew brighter and brighter, until the whole room was filled with light. The time machine then made a loud screeching noise. Fighter, Maker, Kakyuu, and Keikan all heard something drop to the ground. When the light finally cleared away they saw Healer sitting on the floor looking really confused.
"Healer your OK!" Fighter exclaimed as she ran to Healer and hugged her tightly.
"Get off me Fighter!" Healer said as she pushed Fighter off of her.
Fighter looked slightly upset, but quickly covered it up buy stomping out of the room while yelling; "I don't know why I waste my time worrying about you!"
Healer stood up and turned to Kakyuu, Maker, and Keikan, "Who made this?" She asked pointing to the machine.
Keikan stepped forward and bowed to Healer. "I did Healer-sama." He said as steady as he could.
"Why?" Healer demanded.
"I thought it would be useful in the future." He replied.
"Get up!" She growled at him.
Keikan quickly got up and backed away a little. `She's just as bad as Fighter!' Thought Keikan.
"Why did you think it would be useful?" Healer asked him.
"Well, I thought that sometimes some people in the castle, mainly Princess Kakyuu, Fighter-sama, Maker-sama, and you, would like to see your past or future. It works pretty well, doesn't it?" Keikan asked.
"No." Healer replied.
Keikan was shocked! "Why?"
"Because you can't change your past." Healer said quietly as she walked out of the room.
Kakyuu, Keikan, and Maker watched Healer walk out.
"I wonder what she saw?" Wondered Maker aloud.
All Kakyuu and Keikan did was not and wonder too.
*~~~~~~*~~~~~~*
Healer opened the door to her bedroom. `Finally bed time.' She thought.
Healer shut the door and turned on her light. She looked toward her bed and saw someone lying in it beneath the covers. She also heard some sniffling sounds. Healer walked closer to the bed and pulled off the covers.
"Fighter!" She gasped. "What are you doing here?"
Fighter leaped out of the bed. `Oh, no! What do I do now?' she thought. "Umm, I wanted to see if your bed was softer than mine!" She said quickly.
Healer raised an eyebrow, "Then why were you crying?"
"I was crying because your bed is softer than mine." Fighter lied.
"Okay." Healer said, not convinced. "Well, now that you saw whose bed was softer you can get out."
Fighter fixed Healers bed and walked to the door, "Sorry." She muttered.
"Hey, Fighter, are you OK?" Healer asked.
Fighter tried to smile, "Yeah, I'm fine." Then she walked out the door.
*~~~~~~*~~~~~~*
Later that night Healer crept over to Fighters room. She knocked on the door.
"Come in." Came Fighters voice.
Healer walked in the room and shut the door. Then she walked over to Fighter, where she sat at her desk.
"What are you doing?" Healer asked her as she looked over Fighter's shoulder.
"I was attempting to draw." She answered. "But I didn't have much luck." Fighter tossed the paper in the trash.
Healer sat down on a seat next to Fighter, "What were you drawing?"
"Something stupid." Fighter replied.
"Oh. Did you draw yourself as Seiya or Fighter?" Healer said as she rocked on her chair.
"Very funny." Fighter said glaring at her. "I was actually trying to draw you."
"Hey I was only joking!" Healer said as she punched Fighter in the arm lightly. "And if it was just `something stupid' it wouldn't be me."
"Yeah I was joking too." Fighter said as she got up and walked over to the window.
"What's wrong?" Healer asked. "Why were you really in my room?"
"I told you, I wanted to see whose bed was softer." Fighter replied.
"And you cried about it?" Healer questioned.
"I was upset!" Fighter pouted.
Healer rolled her eyes. "Yeah. Right." Healer took her chair over by the window and put it next to Fighter. "Now tell me the real reason."
Fighter looked at Healer for a while. "Why do you care?"
"I just want to know! And I'm not leaving until you tell me!"
Fighter sighed. "Fine I'll tell you. But only so you will get out!"
Healer tossed her hair. "Okay. I'm listening."
"Well, when you left I got a little worried." Fighter said as she looked out the window. "I didn't know where you went. I didn't know if you were dead or alive. I didn't know if you were ever coming back. And I guess I sort of missed you."
Healer was shocked. "*You* missed *me*?"
"Yeah." Fighter admitted. "Where did you go anyway?"
"Well," Healer started, "I went to the past and saw my family, only I didn't realize it was them until to late. I saw my brother and sister. I saw me younger. I saw my family die."
Fighter gasped. "Oh Healer! I'm so sorry! You don't have to continue if you don't want to!"
Healer shook her head. "No, let my continue. It's better if I just get it out and over with. Then I walked around with myself, sort of. But it was a younger me. She went by the name of Yaten. We searched for survivors, but didn't find any. Then I was glowing and I disappeared. I heard Yaten scream. After that I landed back here."
"That's terrible!" I'm just glad your OK." Fighter leaned in on Healer and hugged her tightly.
Thanks Fighter." Healer said as she hugged her back.
*~~~~~~*~~~~~~*
"Wow, that's surprising! They got through that whole conversation without starting a fist fight!" Maker observed as she and Kakyuu peered through Fighters door.
"You think they will finally get along?" Kakyuu wondered. Maker and Kakyuu looked at each other.
"Probably not!" That both said in unison as they walked off talking about Fighter and Healer.
