Chapter 10 Blossoming

Heart went slowly along she thought of the mage asleep on the cot, she had harmed him when he probably never meant any harm at all. Now he had a lifelong scar because of it. She sighed some things she did always caused pain yet others she would always regret, this time it was both.

Upon arrival at the prison tent heard Yami and Bakura talking, that's a start, She thought entering. Yami was sitting on the ground Bakura leaning against him as if Yami was protecting Bakura from something.

They looked up and both smiled.

"Master's I have taken care of Chaos and he is resting."

She nearly broke into laughter as Yami's mouth dropped open. Bakura craned his head up to see what Heart was smirking about and saw Yami's wide mouth. Touching the chin he closed Yami's mouth.

"h-how did you do it? No one but his mother has ever been able to get him to comply so quickly."

"Yami," Bakura said interrupting, "Let me introduce you to my card, Change of Heart or for short Heart."

"Ahh, I see how you did it now, well it seems that you will have to stay around more often, you see he is always being stubborn and ignoring commands." Yami said helping Bakura up.

Heart nodded and then going to Bakura began to heal him. Bakura soon felt as good as new, no pain no blood dripping down the back of anywhere. Also he felt something else…He did not feel like killing Yami!

He looked up and put one hand where Yami's heart was and waited, ignoring the confused look on the Pharaoh's face. He concentrated, no curse feeling, only the steady beat-beat-beat of Yami's heart.

Bakura looked up and said, "T-t-the curse is g-gone!" He stuttered in amazement.

Yami smiled and so did heart they both felt good, "Now you can stay and help me defeat Media, after all I am at war with him."

Bakura nodded and the two went off to the Pharaoh's tent to discuss ways to destroy Media and get Bakura's kingdom back from the evil person's control.

Heart shook her head, Boys and their games, will they ever grow up? Probably not. I should go and check on Chaos he isn't supposed to be left alone from what I hear from that doctor. To think that the last time he got healed he fought against the drugs and nearly got away from the sickbed if it hadn't been for his brother. Well I shall go and see how he is.

She went back into the tent and found him trying to get off the bed and leave. Going over she said, "I don't think so Chaos, you are staying right there."

"NO I'M NOT!" He yelled.

"Yes you are." She said in a calm reserved voice.

"NO I'm not!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Who cares not me. Let's see if you can stand up." She said standing up and walking away from the bed.

Chaos glared at her and taking told of the bed and pushing himself up supported himself on the tent pole, rose ignoring the swirling before his eyes, started to walk towards the tent exit. Suddenly his knees gave out and he fell to the floor. He couldn't get back up. His legs wouldn't let him, he hurt too much from the abuse of standing for hours upon hours on end and gave up at that moment.

"By the curse of Ra" He swore.

Heart stood there not moving. Chaos realized without her help he wouldn't get off the ground. He looked up at her and she smiled down at him.

"Um…."He said not knowing what to say.

"You can ask for help." She stated smugly.

Chaos winced, he hated relying on someone else for help. But knew this time he had no choice.

Barely above a whisper he said, "I need help please ."

"I can't hear you." Heart said emphasizing it with a hand at her ear.

"I need help please." He said louder but still not in a normal voice.

"I still can't hear you." Heart said.

"For I need help!" Chaos yelled frightened that he needed help.

"Now that wasn't that hard was it?" Heart said kneeling down, putting one arm of his over her shoulders and then lifted. Chaos never realized exactly how strong this little lady was till now she was lifting him.

Helping him onto the cot again brushed away his hair from the face.

"Now will I have you peacefully laying here or will I have to tie you up and leave you be, your choice."

"I will sit here."

"Good now I will go…" She felt a hand grasp her wrist.

"Please don't go…I don't…" He didn't know what to say, he wanted her to stay but he didn't know why. I mean this is the girl who gave you the lovely white scar on your face. Why do you want HER to stay here and be with you?

Heart nodded she felt much the same way just she didn't want to leave him, she could just sit here and watch him for all she cared but she wasn't going to say that.

Chaos lay there and as he turned winced.

"What is wrong?" Heart asked alert immediately.

"Oh just a pain in my rib cage area, it started to hurt a time a go." He said trying to be civilized when he so much wanted to leave and never come back but yet also wanted her to stay and always be with him.

Heart forced him to sit up and let her look at his bare upper body and found severe bruising alongside his middle ribs on his left side. Cuts and gashes that looked infected covered that side to the point it was going to make her sick...

Krystal Fox: Short I know but I wanted to get it out so you would know that I haven't abandoned you. I will try to update my stories once a week . .
