Disclaimer: ~clears throat~ I do not own +Anima or any of it's characters. I do own Delia though. I will own +Anima, when monkeys with wings teach pigs how to fly.

Husky shouldn't have been surprised. He should've seen it coming from a mile away, Cooro was 16 after all. But none the less, Husky was astonished. He had fallen for a girl he barley knew! Husky knew Cooro was outgoing and accepted everyone, but that was fast even for him! Husky suppressed the urge to go over, hit Cooro over the head, and say 'love isn't something you need in your life idiot.' but not without effort.

Husky hated girls, they were absolutely stupid, so how could Cooro fall for one so easily? He wasn't sure. He almost confronted Cooro when they were left alone with Senri while the girls set off into the forest. Delia was showing Nana where a good place to take a bath was. By then, Nana had persuaded them into allowing Delia to travel with them. But he hadn't, realizing that Cooro probably hadn't noticed himself. The idiot probably thought he was just sick or something.


Nana looked at Delia for a moment, then away. She had asked Nana how she turned into a +anima. A scene that included a dark forest, a drunk father, and a kitchen knife flashed through her mind, and she shivered. "I'll tell you…but only if you tell me one thing in return." Nana Said. "What would that be?" the older girl asked, and stopped combing her hair. "Tell me what happened when Cooro and Senri found you."


Husky looked over his shoulder at Nana. Her face was red. It had been like that ever since she had come back with Delia after soaking in the water. He remembered When Cooro, Senri, and Delia came back and Cooro's face was red. Did Delia tell Her what happened? Husky's curiosity was starting to get the best of him, when Nana looked up at him. "why are you staring at me?" She asked blankly, Husky could tell she was thinking about something else, but his heart still skipped a beat. "I-uh- didn't know I was… I got lost in my thoughts." He said, his embarrassment surprising him, though he didn't show it. "Oh, I see." she mumbled in response. Quickly Husky turned away, his face ramming straight into Cooro's. "Ow!" Husky mumbled. He hit Cooro over the head with the Cooro-punishment-stick. "Watch what your doing!" Husky said angrily. "But I didn't do it!" Cooro whined. Nana looked up at Husky. "He's right, you are the one who did it husky.." She mumbled. Husky turned around to protest, but what he saw stopped him. He took the few steps over to Nana and put his hand on her forehead. "A fever huh?" he said. Cooro looked over at them as Husky helped Nana to the tent. "You should be more careful with how long you take baths, its easy to get sick out here." he said calmly. He was trying to keep a straight face, but he didn't know if he had succeeded or not for Seeing Nana like that was worrying him. She was usually so lively! He put a damp cloth on her forehead and left the tent in search of Senri, who had disappeared not to long ago looking for food. He would know what to do. Reluctantly leaving Nana to Delia, he went off with Cooro into the woods.


Nana coughed slightly, and sighed. She had stayed in the natural hot springs to long, cuasing her to catch a cold. It sucked royally. Shivering, she huddled up in the blankets and went to sleep.

Nana woke to unfamiliar hushed voices outside her tent. "They say it's a disease." a woman whispered. Nana sat up, confused. When she did, she realized she wasn't in a tent, but a white room on a bed. She looked around, disoriented, and noticed Husky Senri Cooro and Delia asleep in the chairs beside her bed. "This is weird." she said aloud. As she spoke, Delia's eyes opened slowly, untill she saw Nana sitting up, then they widened and she jerked onto her feet. "Nana!" she said excitedly. That woke the others up. "Whats going on?" Nana asked sleepily. She got now answer but instead a bunch of 'thank god!' and 'yay!'s. Then Husky stepped up. "You wouldn't wake up after hours, so we brought you here. Its been three days since you even moved!" He stated. Nana blinked. That's awfully long! I wonder what happened? she thought. But before she could ask, a nurse burst into the room. Or, at least, Nana though she was a nurse.


Sasori flung open the door in hurry, Jagger attempting to hold her back by the arm. "Sasori, you've had your fun, now quit already!!" He shouted as she strutted across the room to the group of children. "Hiya!! I'm your nurse Sasori!!! Oh yesh, you must love me already! But enough of that, how are we doing Nana-chan? Still got a fever?" The Red head said, then put her hand to Nana's forehead. "That's good, it's gone, and no im not a real nurse, I just like doing this! Hey I heard you're a +Anima? So am I! and Jagger! And El-hime!" She said, talking as fast as a humming bird's wings flutter. They all just stared at her. "Oh. I guess I forgot to introduce myself?? I'm Sasori, a cheeta +Anima. This is Jagger, a snake," She pointed to a girl in the doorway "Is Elouise Victoria, a dragon fly. Or El-hime for short. Gotta Acknowledge her Royal bloodline!" Sasori continued.
