Chapter 18
Nissa felt someone doing compressions on her chest and someone putting their mouth on hers and breathing into her, giving her air. Her eyes slowly opened as she wasn't breathing yet as Hiei was breathing into her while Kurama gave her compressions; they both were taking turns as it was suppose to be. She had opened her eyes when Hiei was breathing into her mouth causing her to shoot up and begin coughing hard, black smoke exiting her mouth as she kept attempting to get it all out and breath in. Yuuske smiled and knelt down patting her on her back making her cough harder and glare back at him. She saw he had a goofy look on his face with a matching smile, "Welcome back." He stated. She looked around for a moment as everything came back to her, from the burning building to the little girl to Hiei saving them. She blushed a bit as her cheeks turned purple but she quickly got up and turned around, seeing the little girl in Kuwabara's arms. She swayed a bit, "Whoa! Sit down cuz you shouldn't get up that quickly." Yuuske stated, Nissa knew that he was right as she held her head for a moment with a groan. "He's right." Kurama stated as he stood up along with the others that had been knelt down. She shook her head, "I'm fine." She stated with a small cough as she walked over to Kuwabara and held out her arms, "Hand her over please." She stated.
Kuwabara blinked a bit and same with the others; not hearing 'please' come from Nissa before, Kuwabara nodded and handing her to the weak Nissa as she took her in her arms looking down at her. She poked Gremlin who was still on the young girls mouth and nose giving her air; Gremlin was stretched out to do so though as it was a blob and such. "That's good…" She whispered as Gremlin came off the girl and slid up to Nissa's shoulder, 'Is she going to be okay?' Gremlin asked looking down at the girl but growled a bit hearing Kuwabara as the same thing. Nissa laughed a bit in a dull tone but nodded, "I think so." She whispered as she walked to a crate and sat down on it, her legs crossed with the young girl in her arms. She took notes of the girl, noticing she couldn't be to old; she wore a tattered, dirty white gown that was burnt on the ends from the fire. She looked at her more seeing that her hair was premium blonde color though it was dirty, her hair was long also reaching down to the small of her back, Nissa shook her head a bit but something caught her eye noticing the poor girl had a slash over her right eye that had already scared up, she frowned a bit seeing that her lips were bleeding in the same pattern that Nissa had on her lips that were scared. She ran her fingers through the girl's hair softly seeing that her stomach and chest were going in and out showing she was still breathing.
Nissa looked at the others with a stern look, "Don't make any loud noises or anything when she starts to wake up." She growled out in a warning. Kuwabara shivered and Kurama nodded. She looked at Hiei who 'Hn'ed at her and then at Yuuske who shrugged his shoulders. Nissa tensed up for a moment feeling something hitting her. She leaned the girl forward seeing the back of her tattered dress moving like something was trying to get out of being confined in the dress. Nissa blinked a bit and her pointer finger grew into a nice sharp claw as she ran her pointer finger over the moving cloth softly and slowly. "What is she doing? That's sick!" Kuwabara whispered out sickened by what Nissa was doing. Nissa ignored him as she looked at what had come out of the slits in the back of the girls dress, "Shut it idiot!" Hiei was heard growling at Kuwabara and an ouch was heard from Kuwabara as he was hit hard upside the head and knocked to the ground from it by Yuuske. Kurama began to walk up slowly, "What is it Nissa?" He asked in a whisper though he began to notices the markings around the girls ankles, wrist and throat that were liked the one around Nissa's throat but without the triangles under it.
Nissa glanced up at him before smiling weakly at Kurama, she looked back down, "It wasn't random this village was chose." She stated in a sad, angry and slightly bitter tone. She lifted the girl up a bit so he could see. Out from the small girls back was two small white angelic like white-feathered wings, which were limp, somewhat. He noticed them and frowned a bit himself as Yuuske walked up, "So what's going on guys?" He asked before seeing the young female, Hiei walked beside him and looked at the girl also. Kuwabara was still on the ground behind the guys who groaned out a bit and held his head in slight pain. Kurama looked over to Yuuske, "Seems that this girl came from the same capturers as Nissa." He stated in a calm collected tone. Yuuske frowned a bit but nodded in understanding, "Why is she here?" He asked. Nissa looked up at Yuuske, "We'll find out when she wakes up." She stated.
Nissa looked back down at the girl as she started to stir with a groan that turned to coughing afterwards. She slowly opened her eyes and they widened seeing someone abnormal holding her, she seemed terrified. Nissa bit her lip knowing that reaction, she took in a big breath and began to talk softly her angelic tone going over her demonic voice as to not scare the young girl more, "Don't worry… We're not here to hurt you." She stated as she smiled softly at the young girl, "You're safe." She stated. The girl seemed to relax a bit but nodded slightly still shaking with fear. The eye that had the scar over it was white as if she were blind in that eye while the other one was a pale icy blue. "Do you know your name still?" Nissa asked knowing the others were watching in interest. She didn't talk but just shook her head no, "What is your number then?" Nissa asked. This question made the girl tense up but she held up her hands and showed her what number with her fingers, "9054?" Nissa asked making sure she got it right. The girl nodded slightly as her wings moved a bit making her wince in pain and bite her lip a bit. 9054 touched her back softly wanting to see what was wrong with her wings, "What's wrong kid?" Yuuske piped up now making the poor girl jump in Nissa's lap looking at the others while shaking again.
Nissa giggled softly, "They are alright too… They helped me." She whispered making the other girl look up at her and smile weakly with a nod. "Why isn't she talking?" Kuwabara whispered to the others causing the girl to frown a bit and Nissa to glare at him bitterly. "Shut it Kuwabara." Yuuske whispered back to him in a warning tone. Nissa looked down at the now saddened girl, "Don't worry about what he says he's an idiot." The girl giggled just softly but nodded again with a frown still on her face. "Can you stand on your own?" Nissa asked and the girl nodded again but seemed a bit nervous at the thought. "Here let me help." Kurama said as he held out his hand causing the young girl to blush a bit as she took his hand as she stood up slowly, stumbling a bit as she stood on one foot now, "Seems her ankle is hurt." Hiei stated and the girl nodded a bit towards what he said. Nissa looked at the girls back at her wings now and frowned, "I know what's wrong now." She stated in her normal tone making the girl quickly look at her with wide eyes again, "Oh…" Nissa laughed a bit, "This is my normal voice." She stated and the girl nodded again.
Nissa pointed to the girl's wings seeing small black barbwire wrapped around the base of her wings tightly enough that silver blood was seeping through. The others also looked and saw making the frown a bit, "We'll get that fixed when we get back to the temple." Kurama stated. The girl looked up at him and blushed a bit again her cheeks turning a slight pink color. Kurama knelt down, "Get on my back…" He stated. The girl looked nervous for a moment looking at Nissa; who nodded to the girl that it was alright, she slowly after a few moments got up on Kurama's back still blushing. Hiei rolled his eyes seeing this and huffed as he walked back towards where the portal was. "What's shorty's problem?" Kuwabara asked making Yuuske shrug, "When doesn't he have a problem?" He asked rhetorically. "True." Kurama agreed with Yuuske. Nissa got up and began to sway behind the guys as they started to walk off. She held her head tightly as she groaned softly as she shut her eyes tightly. 'Master what's wrong?' Gremlin asked moving on Nissa's shoulders a bit to see her face. Nissa shook her head not responding, she knew something wasn't right at all about this situation as her mind started fading along with her vision again she felt herself lose consciousness the last thing she heard was Gremlin in her head, 'MASTER!'
Hiei blinked a bit and quickly turned his head and saw behind the others Nissa falling to the ground. The other's looked behind them seeing Hiei turn around seeing and hearing Nissa hit the ground, "Nissa!" They all yelled as Hiei appeared beside her knelt down while Gremlin was using its wings to keep hovering above her before landing on Hiei's shoulder softly. Hiei shook Nissa softly, "Onna?" He asked as he shook her a bit harder but stopped seeing a dart like before when they were attacked by the kid and Bo-bo sticking out of the side of her neck that was empty the liquid inside it already inside her, "What's going on?" Yuuske yelled out as he skidded beside Hiei and knelt down as he noticed Hiei pulling something out of Nissa's neck, "What is that?" He asked. Hiei looked at it closely before handing it back off to Yuuske. "Trouble." Is all he said; the girl on Kurama's back began to shake as she pushed on him being nervous about something, "What's wrong?" Kurama asked as she pointed out at the burning huts this caused him to look out at them seeing a blurry figure in the distance in all black.
Nissa was barely breathing and Gremlin growled out and rippled from it as danger was near, "Get to the portal!" Kurama yelled out as they all looked up as daggers flew towards them. Hiei picked Nissa up barely missing the daggers that were aimed at her and began to run with the others but tried to stay with them not wanting to leave them behind. "SHIT!" Yuuske yelled as he began running also, avoiding the fast blades were sort of difficult as a poisoned one came straight towards Hiei now and it stretched out and covered them all but a whimper was heard as it was hit and the blade went into it, Gremlin landed on Nissa with the blade in its stomach as it fell over and seemingly passed out also as they all got to the portal, jumping into it as the portal closed behind them.
Koenma blinked seeing how they came into his office wondering what had just happened. "Well?" He asked as if not worried about what had just happened as Yuuske was under Kuwabara who had fallen on him, "Get off me!" He growled out and punched Kuwabara to get him off of him. Kurama breathed slightly heavy as he looked to the Spirit World Prince, "Seems we have a new comer." He stated and moved showing the angelic girl on his back that was getting nervous and hid into his back making Kurama chuckle a bit. Botan walked in and saw Nissa in Hiei's arms, "Oh my God what happened?" She asked worried about them all now. Hiei glared over at Botan not liking her high-pitched voice, "We were attacked. Seems the girl was a decoy." He stated. The girl; 9054, frowned a bit and hid her face knowing that it was her fault they were in trouble now.
Botan frowned a bit more as she went to look at Gremlin, "What is that?" She asked noticing it was breathing even with the dagger in it. "Poor thing…" She whispered as she went to pull the dagger out slowly, "Don't cut yourself it's poisoned." Kurama informed causing Botan to turn pale from it and be a tad bit more careful. A squeak was heard from Gremlin when the dagger was finally out before a purple glow was seen closing the wound on the goo like body. Gremlin opened its eyes and looked around now as it was feeling a tad bit better. Gremlin had heard Botan's question and looked up at Hiei, 'I'm part of Master.' Gremlin stated in his head simply, Hiei sighed a bit and looked to them all. "It's part of Nissa." He stated in a dry tone. "So in essence like Puu is to Yuuske?" Kurama asked and Hiei shrugged his shoulders as Gremlin tilted its head to the side. Hiei turned to walk off now, "Wait Hiei! We need to know more about that thing." Koenma said and Hiei gave Koenma a nasty look before continuing to walk, "It can wait." He stated in a bitter tone as he made his way to the temple again going through the right portal when Botan summoned it and walked to the front door slowly but stopped and looked down at the passed out Nissa in his arms. He was worried about her and it showed; Gremlin noticed this and giggled softly to itself, 'Master will be fine…' Hiei heard in his head but didn't say or do anything for a few minutes before walking to the hallway where their rooms are and stopped outside of Nissa's room. "What was that liquid?" he now asked as he looked down at Gremlin who looked a bit grim. 'Nothing Master can't handle… It's like a strong sedative but it drains all her energy making her very, very weak.' Gremlin glanced down at Nissa and its wings fell a bit, 'Wouldn't be surprised if something came after her in this state… It's unsure how long she'll be like this.' Gremlin stated.
Hearing that Nissa could be in trouble and was weak made Hiei worry a tad bit more as he walked to his room instead and opened the door. He'd walk in and kick the door closed softly as he walked to his bed and Gremlin jumped down and pulled back the covers trying to help him a tad bit. Nissa was groaning here and there and Gremlin started glowing a bit as Hiei set Nissa down in his bed and covered her up. Hiei let out a soft sigh as he moved to the window ceil and sat down, he wasn't going to leave Nissa alone here let alone when the other girls were here though he was sure Genkai could help out a bit still even if she were old. Gremlin crawled over to Nissa as the glowing got brighter, Hiei glanced at them eyeing Gremlin a bit wanting to know what was going on. Gremlin looked at its tail that turned to a blade and sliced Nissa's cheek softly and quickly. For a glimpse of a moment saw bright purple blood that sizzled and immediately burned and closed itself. Gremlin felt very uneasy about this and Hiei glared slightly not liking that Gremlin had cut her, "What was that about?" Hiei asked in a protective tone. Gremlin turned its head to look at him before frowning. 'This isn't good…Poison was in it-' Gremlin was in the middle of the sentence when Hiei disappeared and reappeared sitting on the bed beside Nissa's body. 'Nothing she can't handle but her body won't let their be a wound as it's dissolving the poison inside so the liquid is stuck in her blood system until it's done… She could be weak for a while.' Gremlin stated and growled a bit as its body began to shake a bit being angered by this.
Hearing what Gremlin had said made Hiei go into a somewhat foul mood as he sighed softly in an annoyed manor. He looked at Nissa and brushed her hair out of her face softly, making her smile just slightly feeling his warmth before she began shivering and curling into a tight ball; holding the covers tightly to her body, Hiei didn't know seeing her like this made him worry so much and protective over her as he ran his fingers through her hair softly again. Gremlin watched this, as some part of it got uncomfortable with it and protective also and another part of it wanted to giggle; it was a very awkward feeling as if there were more then one personality inside. Gremlin would trust Hiei enough to watch her for now but that didn't mean Gremlin had to like him at all.
