Disclaimer: I own volume 13, does that count for anything?

"Doctor! She's going into critical condition!" a nurse screamed.

"Calm down, Syra!" another nurse screamed back.

A young man, perhaps in his late teens, early twenties dashed in. "What's her status, Dealte?"

"Her fever is steadily rising from an original temperature of 101." Delte replied calmly, trying to disguise her natural panic.

"We're going to lose her!" Syra wailed.

A third nurse whacked her. "We are not going to lose her, Syra!"

"Silk's right, Syra." The last nurse said angrily. "We aren't!" she turned around. "Are we?"

The young man shook his head. "No we aren't, Saadia." He glared at the monitor. "Not if I can help it."

The patient, although unconscious from fever, let out a pitiful moan.

"That's it!" the doctor snapped. "Everyone out!"

The four nurses left, still arguing.

Rune turned to the patient. "Let's see..." he murmured in a quieter tone. He glanced at his patient, looking over her stats. "Shian Fiori, fourteen, lives with cousin, cousin's boyfriend, and best friend from elementary school." Shian's light blue hair might have appeared to be cropped at the shoulders, but the rest of her hair was held up in a high ponytail by a white ribbon. She was wearing a sporty white and purple outfit with high white boots.

"Well, that's a fairy if I ever saw one, and I certainly have."

Rune gently placed his three middle fingers on her forehead. "Heal."

A shining blue light spread from his fingers to Shian's forehead, and washed over her body.

On the monitor, the numbers dropped at an amazing speed, until it read '98.6' at which point it came to a sudden stop.

The fairy opened her eyes, which could be now seen as amethyst.

"L-lord Rune?"

He shook his head. "Nope. I'm your doctor."

Shian sat up. "No, it is you, I know it!"

Rune gave a faint smile. "Maybe. But promise me Shian, that you won't go telling everyone where I am."

"I won't!"

"SHIAN!" Miyabi and Nohiro ran up to her.

"Shian, I was so worried!" Miyabi cried.

"Don't worry Miya', I'm fine now." Shian grinned.

"Shian, I'm so relived! Don't scare us like that!" Nohiro lectured.

"Where's my dear coz, by the way?" the recovered fairy asked.

"At home having kittens about you." Miyabi said dryly.

"Nani?!"

"Not literally, silly."

Rune laughed quietly. It was moments like this that made his job worth it. His job as a doctor at Draqueen Hospital.
