A Black Heart Chapter 19

Your POV

After a few months of me going back and forth from paperwork and training my body finally felt like it was drained. I knew from the low amounts of food and few hours of sleep my body was getting sick and weak. I just kept going I slept in my own room to hide it from Hiei and stayed away from people as much as possible it was only two months until the fighting to begin and I knew I couldn't fight sick. I walked out of my room early to head back to work with Koemna without getting caught I had made it all the way downstairs to the kitchen and reached into the medicine cabinet and see my special medicine to help me but I was caught by Hiei. I quickly shut the door to the cabinet and hide the medicine behind me and look at him.

You: Morning Hiei I didn't wake you did I? He shakes his head and tries to look behind me.

Hiei: No you didn't wake me I was already up training outside when I felt you get up and come downstairs to get breakfast before you go do the work that the brat wants you to do. I nod as he walks forward so he was standing in front of me. Are you feeling ok Runa you have seemed off in training and come home from work weak and go straight to bed with no dinner the last few nights. I shake my head and smile to him.

You: I am fine Hiei just thinking of want to eat for breakfast and then it is off to work again and then I will see you around lunch train for a few hours and then back to work and then bed. I looked at him he was unsure and I could tell. Then he leans in and puts his forehead on my forehead and the looks at me.

Hiei: You have a fever Runa. He then reaches behind my back and grabs the bottle of pills for the fever and what would be to come with me getting sick and worse. I can see you have been trying to battle against it with only medicine but no bed rest and food. I look down embarrassed that he found me out. Then Nava walked in on us.

Nava: What is going on here Runa why does Hiei have you cornered in the kitchen? I looked at her and then look down.

Hiei: It seems Runa has been going to work and training with a fever and not eating and sleeping well. Nava walks up and feels my forehead and then nods.

Nava: Runa you will stay here and rest I will tell Koemna why you are not there and no training today as well. I nod knowing I was out numbered and Hiei took my hand and led me to the coach and then he went up stairs grabbed me a pillow and blanket and made a bed for me on the coach.

Hiei: There we will train out in front of the window so you can see and in the mean time you will rest and get better. I nod finally letting my sickness take over from having fought it for the last three weeks.

Nava: I will make some good medicine for you even thought you won't like it but it will make you feel better and breakfast as well. I nod and lay down on the makeshift bed. As the others finally got up Kurama looked worried but saw that Hiei and Nava had it under control but Kuwabara didn't see this as usual.

Kuwabara: Aww did the little puppy dog get sick from all the work maybe we should go easy on you in training would that help. I looked at him and glared I wanted to kill him right there but Hiei push and held him against the wall.

Hiei: She is sick due to all the works she has been doing besides the training she was also doing paperwork and meetings alongside the training and if you ever call her that again I will kill you myself just like her eyes are telling me she wants you dead right now. He nods and then Hiei lets go of him to go get something to eat.

You: "Work him really hard today Hiei he is still too weak by the looks of it." He nods and smirks to me.

Hiei: "Sure but in the mean time do you want anything to do?" I nod and smirk to him.

You: "My flute, drawing book, journal, and reading book." He nods and looks at me with caring eyes. "They are on the desk beside my bed." He nods again and walks upstairs to get them as my sister set my breakfast down on the table beside me. Thanks sis I wish I could help you today but why not take one or two of the wolves with you to the meeting today. She nods and leaves to go to work.

Hiei: Here you go my princess we will be right outside wave or yell or call one of us by mind and we will be inside as soon as we can. I nod and watch as them leave to train right outside. I started to eat my breakfast when I started to feel dizzy I figured I was sicker than I thought and finished the meal and took the stuff that Nava made to help me get better. I then pulled out my drawing book and drew Hiei fighting after a few minutes I started to feel dizzy again. I put my hand to my head but this time it didn't stop. I felt my hand slip on the drawing book and then next think I knew it was blackness.

Hiei POV

I was training and looked to see that Runa had fallen asleep I then went back to training and after a few hours I see that Nava is here and making lunch. I choose to call it quits and wake Runa to eat some lunch. I walk in and straight towards her and put my hand on her shoulder.

You: Runa it is time to get up and eat lunch. I shake her lightly but she doesn't wake. I figure she was really tired and touch her forehead but this couldn't be right her fever had gone up. Nava come here for a minute check her temp something is wrong with it. She came over and put her hand on her forehead and stepped away.

Nava: Her fever has gone up. I watch as she goes over her and then stops. She has what we call Fire sickness. Which is when she has been cut off from her fire source for too long this is going to be a problem. I looked at her and then notice that she was starting to sweat and move in her sleep. We need to get her to the doctors now. I pick her up her body was cold and she was shaking. With that we ask for a portal and run into it straight to the doctor's office.

Doctor: What is it this time? He looks at Runa and calls for a bed.

Nava: She as Fire sickness doctor what can you do for that? He looks at Runa and then back at Nava.

Doctor: Not much we can make her comfortable but she needs the thing that is her fire source. I looked at Nava and back at Runa then to Nava.

You: Tell me Nava what is her fire source? She looked at me and back down at Runa.

Nava: A volcano in my homeland not far from here but it needs to be active and we need a rock that only she can touch. I looked at her this wasn't good at all I could lose her again but this time forever.
