A/N: Omg, overdue update! I'm so sorry about that, but my computer suddenly broke, and I'm doing this off my tablet.

The problem with that is, it has some sort of crazy autocorrect where I type the right word out and it changes it to something completely different. In fact, it's just done it now!

Anyway, enough of my drabbles. On with the story!

Disclaimer: I do not own Noragami

Yato watched as Yukine fell unconscious again. Was it that tiring just to drink a glass of water?

"Strange…" Daikoku murmured.

"I know…" Yato replied half-heartedly.

Daikoku turned to face him as the former god of calamity settled hsi Regalia's body back down. "Do you think we should try my method?"

Suddenly, a thought dawned on Yato, and he completely ignored Daikoku's question. "Hang on a minute. You seemed to know about the poison before I told you. Why's that?"

Daikoku shrugged. "He was just expressing some symptoms of poisoning, so I came to that conclusion. Turns out, I was right anyway."

Yato said nothing, instead gently holding Yukine's hand, running his thumb over the top of his hand.

"You never answered my question."

"Hmm? What?"

"Tsk! You never listen, you arrogant twat." Daikoku grumbled under his breath.

"How am I an 'arrogant twat'?!" Yato yelled angrily.

Daikoku shrugged, smirking. "First thing that came to mind."

"Why you - this is what you want, isn't it? Something to distract me and lessen the tension in the air." Yato murmured, all anger gone from his voice. He smiled faintly. "How smart of you." Then he lowered his voice and added, "For once."

Unfortunately, Daikoku heard. "Oi!" He stood up, looking like he was about to punch Yato. "At least I'm useful!"

"Hey! I am useful!" Yato argued, his voice starting to rise again.

"Oh really? Then go get Hiyori."

Yato raised an eyebrow. "Why?"

Daikoku tsked and rolled his eyes. "She has medical knowledge, idiot! Anyway, she's better than you."

"At what?!"

"Everything."

Yato growled but walked out the room, heading to Hiyori and Kofuku.

Daikoku watched him leave and smirked. "It's nice to know I can make him do what he's told." Then he turned to Yukine. "Now then, when Hiyori comes, I can start my method and make you better."

Hopefully, he mentally added grimly. Yato probably had no idea what I was talking about when I explained it to him earlier. Meh, he wouldn't understand any way I told it to him. But Hiyori can probably understand it.

He was drawn out of his thoughts when Hiyori entered - followed by Yato.

"Bye, Yato." Daikoku said in a monotone voice.

"I thought the term was 'hi, Yato'." He raised an eyebrow.

"Bye, Yato."

"Urgh, fine." Yato walked out the room and down the hall, leaving Daikoku alone with Hiyori (excluding Yukine, of course).

"So, what did you want me for, Daikoku?" Hiyori asked.

"I need your help with something."

Hiyori walked over, curious, and crouched on the opposite side of Yukine that Daikoku was on. "What is it?"

"Listen closely. I only want to explain it once." He took a deep breath, before saying, "Basically, there's some sort of poison in Yukine. I think it might be mixed with blight. Take a very close look at his skin."

Hiyori obeyed him and leant closer, looking at the nearest unbandaged patch of skin. It was pale, but also had a purply tinge to it.

"It looks like there's blight or something under his skin." She murmured, before frowning at Daikoku. "But how can that be?"

He sighed. "I thought so. You've just confirmed my suspicions. Right, well, I better explain my 'method' to you."

"'Method'?"

"Basically, well start off by pouring some holy water on one of the weird punture marks." He pointed to one of the puncture marks, on Yukine's leg. However, it was hard to see as there was a small bandage covering it."I reckon this is where the poison and blight got in. Pour a little on, then add pressure. We'll see what happens, then go from there."

Hiyori mulled over his words, before nodding. "Alright."

Daikoku got up and grabbed a half-full bottle of holy water, before walking back over and unscrewing the lid. He carefully poured some into the plastic lid, before placing the bottle on the floor, making sure it stood upright.

The brown-haired regalia carefully removed the small bandage, and with a quick glance at Hiyori, slowly poured the lid-full of holy water onto the small wound. When there was only a slight twitch of Yukine's fingers in response, he then proceeded to press two fingers into the puncture mark.

That got a bigger response.

With a loud cry of pain, Yukine's head snapped back, fists clenching at his sides. But once the initial shock of sudden pain faded, he relaxed a bit, just quietly hissing before unclenching his fists and going still again.

Hiyori blinked, surprised by the reaction. "Well...that was something."

"It does sting when holy water rids the body of a blight. But now we know for certain that he has blight in his body. We'll add another lid-full, and another after that. We'll keep doing that until he doesn't react much anymore, alright? Then we'll move onto the other puncture marks. There's six in all. Then add some to his other injuries - just in case."

Hiyori nodded. "Okay. Anything else?"

"After all that, he'll have to drink some."

The brunette girl's eyes flew wide open. "What?!"

"It's the best solution to ensure there's no more blight left in his body. Then we just have to treat the poison."

"Um...okay."

Then Daikoku repeated the process on the same leg, until after two more lid-fulls, there was next to no reaction from Yukine.

They went on to another puncture mark, and soon finished with it. Luckily, Daikoku had a fair few bottles of holy water, so they didn't have to worry about running out.

Once all six puncture marks had been sorted, the pair moved onto Yukine's other injuries. The process took less time on the other wounds, but the entire thing took an hour and a half.

As Daikoku finished tending to the last injury, Hiyori let out a deep sigh, leaning back and looking down at their work. Yukine was doing a lot better now; his skin had lost the majority of the purply tinge, but it was still pale. The poison's still in him, she thought, but the blight's nearly all gone. We've just got to get him to...drink the blight.

"One last thing to do, then you can have a break, alright?" Daikoku looked at her in concern. She looks exhausted, he thought.

"Right." Then a thought struck her and she couldn't help but ask. "Hey Daikoku, if you don't mind me asking, why are you bring so nice?"

"Why? Is there something wrong with me being nice?" He asked in a dangerous tone.

Hiyori hurriedly flapped her arms around in a desperate attempt to calm him down. "No, no! I didn't mean it like that!"

Daikoku hmphed (it's hard to explain what this sounds like) and started looking for a glass to put the holy water in.

Seeing he'd calmed down, Hiyori continued, "What I meant is that you're being so kind and caring for Yukine and I think it's really sweet."

Daikoku walked back over, a mild look of surprise on his face. "You think I'm sweet?"

"Er...I don't really know how to answer that."

Daikoku growled.

"Yes! I think you're very sweet!" Hiyori hurriedly corrected, scared that she'd made him mad or something.

Daikoku laughed loudly. "You don't have to act so scared around me, Hiyori! I was only messing with you!"

"O-oh. Right."

His laughter stopped and his smile turned into a grim one. "Now then, I suppose it's about time we got started."

Hiyori hummed a yes, and prepared to prop Yukine up and begin the last stage of ridding his body of blight.

A/N: I'm ending it here. Sorry people, but my tablet's nearly dead and I'm hungry. Yes, my hunger is now a good enough reason to cut it short. Also, it's a Monday. I have school. It's nearly six pm. Therefore, my brain is shutting down.

Bye!
