A new child of the darkness
She was lying in her bed, so still that the small group believed she was dead. She never was that silent or still, always complaining and so full of life.
She was Sporodelia, Sunnydale High bitch and Queen C, a common human without anything special.
She was neither witch nor slayer just bait girl, but sometime she let them see what was behind the mask. But it was so much easier to stay blind, to believe that the cheerleader in what she seems shallow and superficial.
Sunnydale High students kept going on with their lives, but Cordelia accident occupied all the conversations at lunch but the next day they stopped talking about it and forgot about the former cheerleader.
Despite her fall she carried herself as a queen and faced the former cordette. Fallen and forsaken by everybody, she stood foolishly believing in Xander faithfulness.
Few weeks after the flight of her family who left her alone to face the IRS and an uncertain future.
Without money and family support Cordelia knew, she must abandon her dream of university and start to look for a job. And she did she find a job, studying during the day and hardworking girl by night.
Tired, she was so tired but couldn't sleep. All the equipment in her room was making to much noise, the bip of each machine were ear-splitting stopping her from resting.
She heard the nurses speaking; no one came to look after her, her parents sent flowers and the Scooby too. The first was pure act of courtesy no emotion guided the act, the second was directed by guilt and she knew it was Xander who bought it; his scent was all over the bouquet.
The teenager didn't question how she was certain about Xander flower, but it was a fact as she heard him speak to Buffy and bitch Willow.
Neither of them came back another day, just looser boy. She was helpless now, but soon she will recover and she will make them pay, poor pathetic Willow and cheater Xander.
Nobody offended Cordelia Queen Chase without paying full price.

Muraki was visiting the hospital. Three years after his last encounter with his amethyst eyed demon the mad doctor left Japan. He lived in Los Angeles for several years while studying surgery he even worked in Cedar Sinae hospital for two years before returning to Japan and starting his project to relive his brother Saki.
But the Shokan division queered his project. He even gained an indelible scar, but if he lost the opportunity to relive Saki he gained some Tsuzuki's blood giving him the opportunity to feel him wherever the man roamed.
That night at Kyoto he was dead as a human being and reborn as a full blooded demon. For the Ju Oh Sho he was dead, he made sure to free his emerald doll from the curse as final proof of his death.
When he proposed his services at Cedar they accepted his proposal rapidly since his departure Kazutaka Muraki kept developing his skills as a doctor and surgeon and he gained over the years an international reputation.
His fees weren't cheap but it was an insurance if doctor Muraki was the one who operated you it was a warranty of success and recovering.
But since he entered the small hospital, an oddly feeling was overcoming him. His senses were telling him something but he couldn't understand.
But the diffuse sensation became more tangible when he walked near Cordelia's room. The doctor came to a full stop, and his miss matched eyes flied to the bed.
A frail girl was on the bed faking sleep, she was beautiful and the doctor observed her nearly. He took her file and started to read the report.
"Excuse me miss"
"Yes sir?"
"I'm Doctor Kazutaka Muraki….
"Oh, nice to meet you, I'm Sandra the Senior Nurse."
"The pleasure is mine. I'd love to know, who her caregiver is."
"They didn't nominate anyone yet. Some teenagers found her few days ago at the old factory stabbed and bring her."
"oh. Could I be her caregiver then?"
"of course, Thank you, Doctor. Poor girl, she's alone."
"Is she orphan?"
"No, but her parent had forsaken her. Her father forgot to pay his taxes for the past twelve years and when he learned he will be arrested he left the country with his wife leaving their daughter to face the scandal."
"Maybe she has some family left."
"No one came looking for her. Not even a single friend. She lives in a Motel near the speedway. We won't be able to keep her until her recovery."
"Thank you Sandra-san (Miss Sandra)."
"You're welcome Doctor."
The nurse left and the Doctor walked in the room.
Sandra walked to the reception where all the nurses stood.
"Hello girls. Ten buck for who guesses who I met right now?"
"Roby, from the laboratory."
"Nop"
"Dicky from the emergency."
"No. Last proposition."
"Ben Affleck."
"Wrong. I met the new Doctor."
"No! He's already there."
"Yes."
"How old is he?"
"How Does he look?
"Is he married?"
"Stop. He's young maybe thirty five, no he doesn't seem engage. And for a foreign he speaks English very well, if it wasn't for the Sandra San you wouldn't believe he's from Japan. He's very tall and handsome. He has silver eyes who matched a silver hairs and a skin so pale. I really thought he would be very cold but when he gave me the Chase file, his hand was so warm and so soft but so firm at the same time. And he wore a small earring. I could have mistaken it to a drop of blood. Oh and he was fully clothed in white, Suits, shoes and coat. He's so sexy."

He was walking fast and didn't care if his young partners could keep the pace or not. He needed to speak to Oriya, Muraki unique and best friend.
He had felt him again, this time it was odd, it weren't the only time he had felt him. But since his candle was blown and Hisoka freed from his curse no one believed him when he told them Muraki was alive.
It was late, he didn't care and he already knew that the swordsman won't be asleep. He stopped listening to Hisoka rant about the craziness of what he was doing; it wasn't the first time Hisoka spoke those words but now he was fully awaken as a demon and his power already enormous was now terrific.
The mad doctor wasn't alone someone else was with him. A Descendant of the Darkness. A new child who hadn't completely awaken yet.
