A Winter's Treasure {Tengen Uzui}

Fast Recovery

After Shinobu's visit, Suma and Hinatsuru started treating Nagisa's wounds with the elixir she made to help her heal.

They were doing exactly as she had instructed them to do. Dropping three droplets of it on every wound at dusk and dawn. However, whenever they did Nagisa would scream in agony as she would feel a burning sensation whenever they dropped the elixir on her wounds. Which Shinobu forgot to warn them about.

Thankfully, Suma would always hold her and say soothing words in her ear while Hinatsuru dropped the elixir.

That same routine followed for the next week. Until on a Monday morning, Nagisa was soundly asleep when a sun ray came through the window that was ajar and rested on her face. She moved herself a bit before opening her eyes and seeing herself in the same room she had been in for the last month after being saved by Tengen. A Grateful feeling invading her chest once again for being safe and secure there.

Then, she sat up and stretched herself for the morning. However, she noticed something. There was something different that day. Something she has gotten used from Day one. The pain. It was gone. She didn't feel sore or any other discomfort from her stitches, or let alone the most recent stinging pains that she's been getting. Then, she pulled the covers off and looked over her legs. They were still rolled around bandages so she carefully unrolled them and examined her legs.

She could see that her wounds were still there, but they were closed up already. Basically healed. Her eyes widened and jaw dropped when she saw it.

Then, Nagisa had an idea. She sighed and then slowly and ever so carefully tried to stand up by herself. Her legs shook as she hadn't stood up in a whole month, but she found her balance and slowly stood up on her feet.

Nagisa felt as if she was an infant who Just learned how to stand up on her own, which made her smile like she hadn't in a while. Then she walked for a bit around the room and even though it was a bit difficult to walk straight It was better than nothing. She was glad that she had regained her ability to walk again, which she was excited to share with Tengen and the girls. So, she walked over the bedroom door and slid it to the side to open it. Her eyes widened as she had never taken a better glimpse of Tengen's house ever since she had arrived. She walked out of the room slowly and ever so shyly as if she was an intruder in the house she has been hosted for a whole month.
She walked through the hallway slowly and carefully. As she passed by the main room, she could hear sounds of Tengen and his wives sleeping through that morning. Tengen's snoring wasn't so loud, but it was still noticeable. Nagisa couldn't help but feel the need to snoop through the door and see how they slept together. But she held that urge back and kept walking. She refused to disrespect their privacy like that. Not after everything they've done for her.
As she walked a bit further she found herself at the main entrance, where there was a table at the center with some asian decorations at the walls. Nothing too fancy but very stylish and classy. Then, Nagisa walked over to the front door and slid it to the side. The fresh morning air greeted her as if the gates to Heaven had just opened for her. She hasn't even put her nose outside for the whole month and it was sure a pleasant sensation to be out again.
While she was enjoying the morning air, Nagisa didn't even notice that someone had left the main bedroom. And with very sleepy steps, they walked through the hallway, they noticed that the front door was open. After rubbing their sleepy eyes they saw that Nagisa was standing there. Their reaction was very.... intense.

"OH MY GOD!!!! SHE STOOD UP!!!" Suma screamed at the top of her lungs when she saw Nagisa standing there. Which caused the poor girl to jolt and scream in fright before tripping on herself.

Suma's and Nagisa's screams echoed through the house and got to the main bedroom. Tengen, Hinatsuru and Makio woke up abruptly and ran out of the room to see what those screams were about. Tengen came out wearing his gray Jinbei and Hina and Makio had their sleep Yukatas on. All three of them had scared and worried looks on their faces. Except for Makio who was ready to kill if she had to.
