Chapter 5
A/N: I finally got the fourth chapter posted up and, I'm sorry for this, but this chapter is going to be short, so I hope you'll all be able to forgive me for this, and, to help earn your forgiveness, I'm trying to make, chapter 6 longer.
Disclaimer: I own none of the InuYasha characters, though I really wish that I could (Ps. I'm making a KougaXSesshomaru fan fiction story)
The healer looked quite worried as he stared at the cup.
"We must work quickly. I once had a pupil that wished to learn about poisons, but I refused. If it truly is him we're looking at for this, then we truly do need to work quickly." The healer said, his voice holding great concern as he examined the contents of the cup, Sesshomaru standing silent by my body.
"You are in luck, I know how to make the antidote for this, but I need these necessary herbs and items in order to make it." He said, taking out a piece of paper and quickly writing down the names before he handed it to Sesshomaru.
"If I get you these, you will be able to make an antidote to counteract the poison?" Sesshomaru asked, looking for the paper to the healer and back to the piece of paper.
"I can, but you must hurry now and find them if you truly wish to save her." The healer said before Sesshomaru rushed out of the hut and into the woods, leaving me in the care of the healer while I fought for my life, I wasn't ready to die just yet.
I did not know what time Sesshomaru came back but I was told that when he did, his arms were filled with herbs and other healing items.
Sesshomaru handed them over to the healer who quickly began to mix all of the different ingredients together in boiling water. He crushed them, he mixed them, he tore them into tiny pieces, occasionally adding different things into a stone bowl before adding them and mixing them with the water.
Sesshomaru stood silently in place, watching the healer at work until the healer glanced up at him.
"Sesshomaru-sama, I cannot work with you hovering over me. Until I am done, you will need to wait outside. You can either walk out on your own, or be forced out." The healer told him, nodding to a few sacred sutras close at hand.
Sesshomaru growled lightly in warning but stepped outside the hut as the healer bean to continue.
The healer stepped outside, wiping his brow with a small piece of cloth. He'd done his best and this time, his best was enough.
"Sesshomaru-sama, she will make it now, you may come inside," He called out to the blackened darkness of the surrounding trees. "It would be best if you stayed with her so that there will be something familiar for her to reach out to when she wakes in these unknown surroundings."
Sesshomaru quietly stepped from the shadows and regally stepped past the healer and into the hut before sitting down next to me, taking my hand in his.
A/N: I hope you all enjoyed this, even though it was so short. Please, read and review.
