Chapter 2
All For You
They had put Seiya in her bed, Yaten never left her side. She still hadn't woken up and he was getting worried.
"Seiya....wake up....please..." he whispered.
********** Ami brought some tea in for herself and Taiki. "Hey, are you alright..?" she asked worriedly. Both of them had been working day and night trying to figure out what exactly the youma had done to Seiya, what exactly was wrong with her, and how to cure it.
Taiki sat back in his chair staring at the computer screen.
Ami looked at it too and clapped a hand over her mouth.
********** Seiya thrashed around in bed, clutching at the sheets. "No..." she whimpered. "No, no...leave me alone..."
Yaten squeezed her hand reassuringly. "Don't you dare leave me....baka..!" he muttered.
Seiya's pale form didn't respond.
********** Ami sat with the girls and Mamoru, talking to them and trying to calm Taiki down.
"We found that the poison that was injected into her slowly mutates it's victim into a youma--" she didn't get to finished because...
"NANI?!?!?!?!?!!!!!" echoed through the room.
"S-Seiya is t-turning into a y-youma..?" Usagi stuttered, horrified.
"Demo,"
The others turned to Ami and hung on the 'demo.'
"Demo, because she is a senshi.....She won't turn into a youma...Instead.... Unless we find a cure....."
They all leaned in and Ami sighed regretfully.
"If we don't find a cure....It will slowly kill her..."
********** When they had told Yaten the news.....he had not taken it well in the least... He had started screaming in a different language, probably the original language of the planet Healer, transformed, and between every little Healarian epithet was a huge "STAR SENSITIVE INFERNO!!", and there were several scorch marks on Seiya's walls before they had told him/her that there might be a cure.
********** "So," Haruka started, "In order to cure her we have to get a whatchamacalit berry?"
Ami sweatdropped. "Its called the Naoruberi berry...."
"I don't care what its called, but will it cure Seiya?!" Yaten demanded.
"Yes. Its very rare and only grows in Fireball Valley on Kinmoku. But Fireball Valley itself is very dangerous. There are deadly youma everywhere, they can dodge attacks and throw their own at the same time. Even all six of the Starlights in a group wouldn't go in--"
"SIX STARLIGHTS?!?!?!!" Haruka screamed, "I HAVE ENOUGH TROUBLE WITH JUST THREE OF YOU!!!" Setsuna and Michiru sweatdropped.
Yaten glared at her. "The other three are our cousins. Sailor Star Battler is Fighter's cousin. Sailor Star Curer is my cousin. And Sailor Star Generator is Maker's cousin. They're our equivalents but they are women 24/7, they don't have a male side at all. Plus, Battler was born deaf, so it makes it that much harder on Fighter, she has enough without you picking on her Haruka!"
Ami cleared her throat. "Speaking of Seiya, we're gonna have to take her into the valley with us."
Yaten jumped from his seat. "NANI?!?! WE CAN'T TAKE HER IN THERE!!"
Ami regarded him sternly. "We must. She doesn't have enough time for us to leave her here or on Kinmoku, get the berry and come back. If we tried that, she'd die before we got back with the berry."
Yaten looked away and walked down the hall, back to Seiya's room.
********** Yaten ran a hand over Seiya's pale cheek. "Why did you do that.....? You're such a baka sometimes you know that?" tears trailed down his cheeks. The raven haired girl remained silent. He looked down, resting his forehead on the edge of the bed.
A pale, shaking, hand made it's way onto the top of head and he looked up. "W-who are you c-calling a b-baka...? B-better not be m-me...!" she whispered.
Yaten's eyes widened. "Seiya!"
"Oh, and to a-answer your q-question from b-before.....I s-saved y-you b-because I w-wanted t-to......"
"Seiya....."
Her hand slipped and fell still as she lapsed into unconscious again.
Wordlessly, Yaten gathered her up in his arms and stepped back to where the others were. "So...are we leaving now or what?"
