Name of Chapter: Healing

…

It was sometime before I woke up. Everything was blurry. I couldn't see straight. Pain erupted from my side. I shut my eyes and bit my tongue from screaming in pain. I clenched my side, feeling something that felt like cotton and took several deep breaths.

After what felt like an eternity, the pain passed. I opened my eyes to see the wooden ceiling of my room. I turned my head to the window. It was day out. But I didn't know how long I was unconscious for. Was I unconscious for just a day, or possibly more? I had no idea.

"You're awake," a quiet familiar emotionless voice said. I knew that voice from anywhere.

My head snapped in his direction, wondering if I was asleep still and dreaming. Sesshomaru could NOT be here. How did he even know where I was? Was he always watching me? Did he see me be taken by Juro and Jin? If he did, why didn't he save me?

Right. He is a cold demon. Demons don't care for humans.

I blinked and rubbed my eyes, if it wasn't a dream, it had to be a false vision.

Nevertheless, there he was long silver hair, cold golden eyes, same attire he always wore, a fluffy thing over his right shoulder. He was leaning against the wall, looking calm and serene, like one of the nights we spent together underneath the late autumn stars.

My breath caught in my throat.

"You're here," I finally breathed, a small smile on my face. It made me happy that Sesshomaru was here, illusion or not.

Sesshomaru nodded curtly as he always does.

"You have been unconscious for a day," he stated in his low emotionless voice, answering a question I asked myself.

"How is Kayo," I asked, remembering Kayo's wounds. "She had a lot of wounds."

"She fainted shortly after you and has not woken up."

"Oh." Something clicked in my mind. "Wait, you must have seen everything. If you know, Kayo and I fainted. And if she fainted after me."

"I arrived just as you fainted."

My heart skipped a beat and my breath caught in my throat once again. Did he really just say that?

"You were worried about me," I asked, my eyes wide. Before he could answer, Akio came in.

"Hey, great, you are awake." Akio said in a rush, smiling. "Good, because Kayo is awake and wants to see you to make sure you are alright."

"How is she?" I asked, forgetting about Sesshomaru.

"Fine but she should rest more." Akio answered, his smiling shrinking a hair.

"Let me guess, she won't rest until she see's me first." I guessed, rolling my eyes and smiling. I knew Kayo wouldn't eat or sleep until she knew I was perfectly fine. She was a true friend.

"Yes." Akio replied, smiling sheepishly.

I sighed heavily and shaking my head. I truly expected that from Kayo.

"Give me a minute." I slowly sat up, noticing a simple white kimono covering my torso along with a blanket.

"Slowly, Misa. You wouldn't want to open your wound." I paused trying to sit up to register what I just heard. I looked at Sesshomaru, curious to why he said that. It took me by surprise, not thinking he would be the person to say something like that.

My heart skipped another beat.

I seriously must be dreaming.

Sesshomaru looked like he didn't say anything. But I know he said it.

Was he worried about me? Was he truly heartless? Those questions repeated in my mind. I must have been imagining things. Or dreaming.

"Ow," I cried, feeling pain erupt from my side again.

"Are you okay, Misa?" Akio said, standing next to me with his arms out, I figured incase I fainted.

"Yes. It's not bad as the last time." I reassured him when the pain passed after a couple moments.

"Okay," he said. "Come on. Lets go see Kayo before she comes here herself. I want her to rest as much as possible."

"How wounded is she," I asked him as we walked out of my room. From the corner of my eye, I saw Sesshomaru follow. I brushed him off, deciding Kayo was more important than some cold demon.

"She has a cut on her arm, that isn't very deep; a gash in her side, same as yours; and several cuts on her legs. But other than that, she's fine." Akio explained, leading us down another hallway. "Fukio expected her to be unconscious for a few days. I told her not even two days." We laughed.

I noticed some of the women I saw, bow to me. I assumed they respected me because we got rid of Takashi, Katashi, Juro, and Jin. They were free to do what they wanted now. It was a new start for some people.

Akio stopped in front of a sliding door and opened it. I was behind him.

"Kayo, you know you're not supposed to be walking," Akio said to Kayo. I held a hand over my mouth to stifle my laughter.

"I'm not resting until I know Misa is alright, Akio." Kayo sharply replied. I stepped in front of Akio, into the room.

"Who, me?" I asked, smiling.

"Misa, are you all right?" Kayo exclaimed, embracing me tightly.

"Fine," I coughed, feeling my ribs crack. "But I can't breathe."

"Sorry," Kayo said, loosening her grip on me. "I've just been so worried about you since I woke up."

"I know you have. I'm fine, Kayo. I'm less injured than you are." I told her, smiling.

"I know. But your gash on your side is way deeper than any of my other cuts." Kayo argued, her hands on her hips. If I was a normal person, I would be scared of Kayo at this point.

"You nearly had your arm sliced off by Takashi!" I argued in return.

"You were nearly cut in half by Katashi!" Kayo exclaimed. The air around us shifted. "But I'm glad you're alright. I'd hate it if I lost my best friend." Kayo smiled.

"Me too." I said, also smiling. I embraced Kayo. I laughed, finding it funny how we go be fighting one moment then hugging each other the next.

"What are you laughing at?" Kayo asked.

"Oh, nothing."

"Liar."

"Am not."

"Are too."

"Oh, be quiet."
