Chapter 2 – Changing
"Jaken! Don't poke her!"
"I'll poke her all I wish, Rin! Hmm? I think she's starting to wake up."
Hotaru groaned weakly. She hurt all over. She was vaguely aware of people talking. What had happened? Had she hit her head? Her whole body felt numb. With some difficulty, she forced her eyes open… straight into the faces of a little girl and a green… thing. She screamed and backed away, jumping to her feet. Bad idea. Really bad idea. Her head exploded with pain.
"Shit…" She gasped, putting her hands to her head. She glimpsed a third someone in white out of the corner of her eyes. Her stomach lurched and she spun around, leaning on a tree as she coughed up dry heaves. Wait, a tree? What… Her mind was swiped clean as her body once again tried to throw up an empty stomach. The whole world was spinning, she felt as if she might collapse again. She gasped when her stomach finally stopped and her eyes flickered across her wrists, which were throbbing painfully. She gasped again, this time in shock when she saw the ragged, reddish-orange rings on the sides of her wrists.
Eyesight blurring quickly, she turned to the three figures. "Did you… cut me?" me mumbled. Unable to sustain consciousness any longer, she fell into darkness once again.
.o0O0o.
Groggily, Hotaru opened her eyes to see the jagged, gray ceiling of rocks of a cave. Where…where was she? Suddenly, she remembered those two strange faces and the blinding headache. Slowly, so as not to cause another headache, she turned her head, spotting a fire and man with silver hair and wearing white sitting opposite her. There was a sift looking, fuzzy boa over his shoulder on his right side and he had odd, red markings on his cheeks along with a blue crescent moon on the middle of his forehead.
"Good. You're awake." He said
She pushed herself gently on her elbow and put a hand to her forehead once again. "What happened? Where am I?"
"We found you lying unconscious in the forest. When you awoke and blacked out again, Rin insisted that we bring you here to this cave and wait for you to wake up and get well." He said in a cold, monotone voice. "Now that I have answered your questions, you will answer some of mine. What is your name and what were you doing in the forest in the first place?"
She sat up straight, clenching her eyes shut and rubbing her forehead. "I'm… Hotaru. And… I don't know how I got in the forest. The last thing I remember is getting up to go to my next class and feeling really ill, well, before I woke up to that little girl and toad-creature. Oh, man…" She opened her eyes, seeing a few strands of hair drift in front of her face. Her eyes widened at seeing several blonde strands. She reached out and touched them, bewildered. "What did you do to my hair?"
The man got a peculiar look on his face. "Nothing. It's been steadily getting more gold since we found you, ningen."
Ningen? That's the Japanese word for human, isn't it? Hotaru thought questionably. Does that mean he's not human? If I didn't feel so crappy I think I'd be thrilled… And why is he looking at me like that? Irritated, she asked, "What? Is there something on my face?"
"As a matter of fact, yes."
She furrowed her brow worriedly. She glanced to the side and saw her bag lying against the wall. Grabbing it, she zipped it open and hastily pulled out a small mirror and gaped at the reflection.
Vibrant yellow, jagged stripes branched off from the ends of her ears and came together in a triangle in the middle of each of her cheeks. And her eyes! How did she get gold eyes? She had blue eyes, blue!
She dropped the mirror as pain surged through her body. It shattered on the cold, stone ground.
"Gah! Aah!" She chocked, grabbing her middle. "What did you do to me?" She screamed in agony.
"I did nothing!" The man exclaimed, standing up and looking very alarmed.
A large amount of pain condensed in her hands and she held a shaky palm out in front of her face, eyes widening in horror and pain as her fingernails began lengthening into claws at an alarming rate. The violent orange rings shivered into triangles. Overwhelmed by pain, she blacked out for a third time.
.o0O0o.
Grr, I hate making her black out so much. Makes her seem weak. 3 times in a row! Damn… What's happening to her? Think you can guess? I'm sure you can. Read and Review! Constructive flames welcomed! I love my reviewers!
