Chapter 7

Thank you yuukikittycatofwisdom for reviewing~

I appreciate it!

On to chapter seven!

(RIO'S POV)

I walked into Kurapika's room, switching on the light and being greeted by a groan.

''Up and at 'em buddy!'' I said, more cheerfully than I felt.

I pulled the blanket off of a small curled up Kuruta.

''Rio…'' he trailed off, pulling at the edge of the blanket, his eyes squeezed shut.

''come ooon!'' I growled pulling at the blanket.

As it slipped out of his fingers I stumbled back and ran into the door frame.

''You should really be more careful Rio….'' Rezo mocked, walking into the room, stethoscope in hand.

He placed it onto Kurapika's chest once he sat up .

''Incredible…'' the doctor whispered, shaking his head, and putting the stethoscope back around his neck.

''The rhythm of his heart has been completely stable for the past three days...How do you feel son?'' Rezo asked a look of confusion, mixed with relief crossing his face.

''I feel better….'' He said quietly, bringing his hand up to his chest.

'' good…'' I said, a wave of relief running through me.

...

I looked out the window at Kurapika, who, even after a month, still sat out in the yard, waiting for Morrah to come home.

...

(Kurapika's pov)

I sat, my chin resting on my hand as I watched the woods behind our house.

Morrah wasn't coming back…I knew that…

I just couldn't grasp the thought of losing something else…

Standing up I brushed off the dirt from my pants.

When I looked up I was startled to see a shadow flash behind the eyes widened as I backed up slowly.

''R-Rio…'' I whispered, the shadow coming closer.

I took another step back, then turned to run when I heard the snap of wood under feet, and was knocked off my feet by something large and rough.

...

(RIO'S POV)

''Help!'' I heard a shout from the yard.

My feet couldn't move fast enough. I rushed out of the back door to find Kurapika under a large white….wolf?

I grabbed a stick and threw it at the creature, only to be pounced on and nearly drowned by a long pink tongue.

''K-Kurapika…what-?'' I couldn't finish my sentence, for I do not like the taste of dog slobber.

I heard a small chuckle from my side, which quickly turned into laughter.

Finally getting the wolf off of me I sat up, leaving it panting in my face.

''Where…did. It. Come. From?'' I asked, exhaustion taking hold on my muscles already.

When only a small shrug came as my reply my eyes twitched.

''Kurapika…'' I pinched the bridge of my nose.

When I opened my eyes I saw that he was pointing to the woods that lay in front of us.

The wolf barked at me, making me jump, then licked my face again before getting up, and walking in the back door…

''Ooh! Can we keep her? Please?'' Kurapika asked for the hundredth time as he sat, petting the seemingly soft white fur of the wolf…my eye was still twitching.

''I don't know Kurapika….'' Was all that I could say.

I studied the creature, large portions of red fur curved into spirals around it's head, neck and shoulders…and a larger circle in the middle of it's forehead, with spirals bursting out of it.

''Morrah?'' I inquired, not thinking clearly.

My eyes widened when the dogs ears perked, and she looked at me, tilting her head.

Woah….
