Chapter 6
Iroh closed the door behind him, it had been a long night and his nephew had the shadows under his eyes to prove it.
"Will she be alright?" Iroh heard Zuko ask the healer in little more then a whisper.
"I'm not sure." The healer said thoughtfully.
"What's wrong with her memory?" Iroh asked politely crossing his wrists in his sleeves.
"I think she's oppressed right now. After what Zhoa did to her, I don't think she'll ever be whole again. That and the blood loss plays a factor too." the healer then looked stern. "Someone will need to stay with her tonight and make sure she doesn't fall asleep. I'd offer myself, but I might fall asleep before she would." the healer added with a yawn. "We need to know exactly what Zhoa did to her tonight.So we can help her, if there is a chance that there's a pregnant woman on board our supplies list will change dramatically."
Iroh opened his mouth to speak, but Zuko got there first.
"I'll stay with her and see what she can tell me." Zuko said plainly.
The healer nodded.
"With all do respect." Iroh questioned. "Why does Xola have to stay awake? Its the middle of the night. And I think she, more then anyone on this ship deserves the rest."
The healer sighed. "If we let Xola rest we could lose her.Its far easier to have some one die in there sleep, with out us knowing about it, then if they're awake."
Iroh nodded and Zuko looked at his feet.
"Well..." said the healer with a yawn. "If she passes out or something, I'll be in my cabben." And with that he walked down the long hall way to his cabben.
Iroh turned to his nephew. "Are you sure you want to stay up all night with Xola and have her relive what has occurred only hours ago? You look so tiered."
"I'm sure Uncle. Good night."
Iroh sighed and watched as his nephew opened the door to Xola's room and enter, wondering what were the events that had occurred.
