Hi! Sorry about the length of this chapter, i'm not feeling to well right now. I hope you enjoy!

What's wrong with Chrys?: Part ||

Chrys woke up from yet another painful operation and for the first time in ages, she was truly scared. She wasn't scared of new blurred conversation, nor the pain that was amplifying with every heartbeat. She wasn't scared of her friend's reactions to her new ilness. She was scared of death. Death was staring her right in the face, and she couldn't prevent it. Was this how her sister felt before she got killed on that job? She would never know.

Back in the test lab, panic had struck. The nurses were baffled by the contents of the black poison, Fudo was in the corner of the room awaiting Hibiki's arrival, Nova was close to tears and Ichigo was in tears.

"W-What are w-w-we gonn'a do?!" He sniffled, "I don't want Chrys-tan to die!"

"Calm down." Nova scolded, although her thoughts agreed with the crying light mage.

The noise of knocking on the door imediatley caught everyones' attension. A well-dressed Hibiki slowly opened it and scanned the room.

"Pardon me, ladies, but I was directed to this room by the lovely woman at the counter. Is this the testing room?" he asked smoothly. This charmed all but the dragon slayer.

"Hey Hibiki! What took you so long?! Chrys is dying over here!"

"Oh... Hi Fudo..." he took a few stepps toward a nurse, "Hello, there gorgeous..." He started before being interrupted yet again.

"Look through the damn microscope!"
"Fudo, be quiet... Or I'll make you clean Christina."

"I'm being serious, if you don't hurry up, Chrys will die."
"Chrys? Oh! I forgot! I was distracted by you pretty nurses! I'll get right to it!" He realized and hurried toward the microscope before peering down it. "This is definatly a poison... Has she been into contact with any magical beings lately?"

And the questions went on, Hibiki was desperatly searching through his archives.

The rate of the heart-monitoring lacrima grew fainter and fainter. This was when the only thing she could do was accept death's glare and belive that there was a heaven, and her sister was up there waiting for her. She thought she could do her mother proud, but instead she proved to be even worse than her older sibling. Her pale green hair fell out of it's tight grip and her fringe fell over her eye. At this point she was too weak to fix it. She was too weak to fix all her problems. Maybe it was for the best that she was dying. Her mother wouldn't have to be disapointed in her anymore. Maybe everyone was disappointed in her. She thought this was her turning point in life, but in the end, it was her pathetic defeat. Her disapearence from the earth would be silent and unoticable.

"I have it!" Hibiki yelled in delight. "We might not have the time to heal her completely, but she'll certainly remain alive."

"How do we cure her?" Nova cried.

"We need to purify her blood. It was contaminated by the house demon when it possesed her. The demon was obviously going to be defeated one day, so Zeref planted poison inside it, so it would take effect on whoever it last possesed. It's almost too late, so we won't manage to purify her completely though. Ichigo, use your light encasement spell on her when we get through to the other room!"

"Right!" Ichigo cheered in happiness, darting out of the door with everyone following behind.

She lay there, feeling her eye lids slowly close. The constant beeping of the lacrima had completely faded.

"Light rays gather from far and wide, help me now by being by my side, encase

the darkness from within, provide repent for mortal sin. Release!" What she thought was the last words she would ever hear echoed.

It was like being hurled up from under water after staying down there for as long as you could remember. That first breath was all it took to restore a lost life. The awakened Chrys jolted upwards after feeling oxygen enter her lungs to see the smiling face of Ichigo, who was soon joined by a vast number of nurses, Fudo, Nova and Hibiki, all equally as glad to peer into the eyes of an almost lost commerad.

Thank you for reading! Btw, Chrys being ill acctually leads on to something so it's not completely pointless. Thank you to all my reviewers and favoriters! It means a lot :3 And Fulminsa-chan, thank you for the suggestion! I might add that in later. I hope you're all looking forward to the next upload! x
