The following days went by just as fast as the last one. After reaching the Butterfly Estate, Shirayuki underwent rehabilitation thanks to the care of Aoi and three other servants, Sumi, Kiyo, and Naho.
The sun shone brightly in the room today as Shirayuki's eyes fluttered open. 'It felt like I slept for days,' she thought before wincing slightly. 'But I'm also still injured,' realised the white-haired girl.
*Growl*
'...and I'm hungry too,' thought Shirayuki when her stomach made itself known. "The first thing you do when you wake up is wanting food? This is so typical of you," came a voice on her right, making Shirayuki tilt her head in this direction.
Shirayuki could feel Ayuna's familiar heat signature, making her smile. "Ayu-chan, you returned already?" asked Shirayuki as Ayuna's eyes twitched at the nickname. Then, with a sigh, Ayuna shook her head. 'Why do I even bother? She won't stop anyways,' she thought before looking at Shirayuki.
"I finished my last mission. So I was waiting for you to wake up," she said, making Shirayuki smile. "You weren't worried about me, I hope?" she asked, making Ayuna scoff. "As if," she said, making Shirayuki smile before they heard the door opening.
"Oh my, you are both here," said Shinobu when she entered the room. Then, she walked to Shirayuki's bed as Ayuna eyed her. "I understand your dislike of me, but please, there is no need to look at me this way," said Shinobu, smiling at Ayuna.
"You also have to understand that we had to be careful when dealing with your case," Shinobu reminded Ayuna as she narrowed her eyes. "Yeah, well, you guys were fast at jumping to conclusions and decisions," she said, making Shinobu smile but not reply.
As the two stared at each other, the bedsheet moving caught their attention. "And where are you going?" wondered Ayuna when she saw Shirayuki trying to sneak away. "I'm hungry," she simply said, making Ayuna sigh. "Of course," she said as Shinobu laughed softly.
"I will ask Kiyo to prepare you something to eat," said Shinobu, making Shirayuki smile. "Thank you, Kocho-san," she bowed, making Shinobu smile. Then, her eyes landed on the bandages on Shirayuki. "How is the rehabilitation going?" she asked, making Shirayuki hum.
"I'm still injured...and more hungry, but it's going good," she said, making Shinobu nod before she looked at Ayuna. "I presume you didn't need any, right?" she asked, making Ayuna slowly nod. "Great!" said Shinobu, clapping her hands before remembering something.
"Oh, Kazemaru-san, you should be in good enough condition to start your rehabilitation training," she said, making the two slayers tilt their heads. "Rehabilitation training?" Shirayuki wondered, making Shinobu smile. "Yes, it will help you be back on your feet in no time," she said, making the white-haired girl nod.
Smiling, Shinobu looked at Ayuna. "You don't have a mission today, right?" she asked, making Ayuna shake her head. "Great, come with me then," said Shinobu, motioning the two to follow.
