Haruka's P.O.V.

"Haruka... You sure are a traitor..."

I looked at Shisui. "But... Shisui..."

"Let me tell you, Haruka. I never love you. I hate you. You're a disgrace of our clan."

"Weak. You can't protect your teammates. You were defeated by a sickness you took by your own will. And you're dying, with poison that slowly destroy your body inside."

"You should just die."

My eyes snapped open, and I jolted up awake, as I gasped for air, letting the cold air filled my respiration system. In result, I immediately felt an urge for another coughing fit.

I stood up, and rushed to the bathroom. I gripped the edge of the sink, as I took off my scarf, and starts coughing uncontrollably.

My throat hurts like hell. It burns so bad, it feels so hot that I unconsciously grabbed a cup and fill it with water, gulping it down.

I throw it up instantly.

My legs start shaking, and I almost fell to my knees when someone caught me and support my weight.

I kept coughing up blood violently, as I managed to pull out my pill bottle with my shaking hand. I uncapped the medicine, pulling out 2 pills and swallowed it down without water, as I feel a hand rubbing my back soothingly.

My sight began to blur, and my ears started ringing. I can't feel any of my senses, all I can feel is the bitter metallic taste of blood in my mouth, and the burning feeling on my throat.

I closed my eyes, and slowly released my grip on the sink, leaning on the man behind me.

I can feel him panicking, so I squeezed his arm slightly, trying to tell him that I'm still awake.

He understand.

I felt him picking my body up bridal style, and put me on something soft, still in a sitting position. He cleaned the blood from the edge of my mouth and securely tied my scarf around my neck.

As I regained my senses, I opened my eyes, to meet Kisame's worried gaze.

"You alright now?" He asked, and I mouthed, 'Water'.

He nodded and left the room.

I took a slow, deep breath, as I looked around. I was on Kisame's bed, his pillow between my back and the wall, while he got my cloak wrapped around me, keeping me warm.

"Here." Kisame said, as he entered the room, handing me a glass of warm water.

I slowly swallowed it, aware of how he's watching my every move.

"It's getting worse, isn't it?"

I nodded, leaning on the pillow. "I almost run out of the meds." I told him, as I showed him the remaining 6 pills inside the bottle.

"I'll buy a new one later. How's your eyes?"

"I can't read the newspaper without my glasses." I answered bitterly.

"Don't push yourself, Haruka." He scolded, "You do know this is the fourth time this week."

I nodded curtly, closing my eyes once again. "We both know I'm dying. Don't put your hopes up, Kisame. I don't wanna hurt you."
