Kira (a yogscast fanficton)

The worst night

That night I climbed into bed, I thought over the day, Rythian and I's conversation. I shook my head to clear my thoughts, I grabbed the box and pulled a bottle out, there was a note on the bottle, 'how are you doing this dad?' I asked myself before reading it. The note was short it said "tonight will be painful" 'we'll thank you captain obvious, every night of my life has been painful.' I thought. I opened the bottle and took a gulp, I could barely swallow it, the pain started right away. I groaned and held my mouth closed as I forced myslef to sallow what I had gulped in, it was pain like none other, my stomach felt as if it were being shot through repeatedly. I felt as the wither in me was getting stronger, fighting the medicine harder, my hands went completely numb, pain seeping into every part of my body. I tried not to but it was useless, I screamed, I heard footsteps running towards my door, I hoped it would be Rythian and not Zoey, he would understand. I gasped as my stomach pain worsened even more, the door opened and I heard a voice, it was a male voice, it was powerful and strong, it was Rythian. "Kira!" He shouted, his head loomed over my head where I had collapsed. "Rythian what is it?" I heard. "Zoey, get out of this room, go back to our room and wait for me ok?" I heard him say, "go!" He said again, I heard her leave. I was crying and moaning, the pain was unbearable, it felt like acid was being slowley poured all over my body, inside and out. I could barely breathe, my vision was wavering. I felt Rythian pick me up, he lay me down onto my bed, "stay with me Kira" he said. "Was it your medicine?" He asked, I did my best to nod, even that hurt. "I...need...to drink...the..rest..of it...or...I'll...turn..." I gasped out, "Kira! That's insane, it's killing you" he said extremely worried. "Please" I pleaded, he sighed and carefully raise the bottle to my lips, I shivered as I gulped down more, gasping as I felt it hit my stomach, like a bomb going off inside me. It felt as if someone was ripping me apart, limb after limb, organ after organ. All I could feel was pain, pain and suffering. "Kira! your going to be ok," Rythian said to me as I moaned and cried. I started to get hot and cold flashes on top of everything else, I started to shiver like crazy, Rythian tucked a blanket around me. Then I was so hot it felt like I was on fire, I threw the blanket across the room, and started yanking at the jacket I was wearing, pulling my socks off, I wanted to strip down, but I wouldn't, I had enough common sense. This went back and forth for about 20 mins, I was hot and cold and hot and cold. All the while my stomach was in fiery pain and every limb ached. Rythian had been with me for about an hour, then I heard footsteps at the door, he heard them too because he turned to look. "Rythian-" it was Zoey, she cut off as she looked around the room. "What's going on?" She asked, I couldn't speak I was in to much pain, Rythian answered, "Zoey...Kira is just a bit sick, I'm going to take care of her tonight, she is in a lot of pain." She looked at me, tears were streaming down my face, I was holding my stomach and groaning. "I want to help" she declared. "No Zoey, go back to our room and sleep. I will come back when Kira is ok to sleep." He practically ordered her. She looked confused and a little hurt, but she walked off to their room. "God I hate doing that." He mumbled. "Take off your gloves, let me see your hands" he said, helping me and I fumbled around trying to take them off. My hands were ash colored and the black veins seemed darker, by my wrist where before there seemed to be something stopping it, the veins seemed to be creeping through the barrier. "Shit" Rythian said, "the medicine was the barrier there, wasn't it?" He said, I nodded. "Well...the barrier is broken, the wither is seeping through." He said. Then he noticed there was still some medicine left in the bottle, "Kira, you have to drink the last of it" he held the bottle up to my lips again as I downed the last of the liquid. It was immediate success, the wither veins were getting pushed back to just my hand. Rythian sighed in relief. Though the wither veins were going back to my hands I was still in pain, my stomach was filled with strong acid that ate away my insides, my limbs were being torn off and then put back on and torn off again, my hands were numb and my body was stiff. "Thirsty" I croaked out, Rythian grabbed a cup of water and held it to my lips, I downed the whole cup in one gulp. I felt the water speed down my throat and hit my stomach, then the medicine started working, I felt it mix with the water and wipe away the fire in my stomach. Slowly the medicine combated away most of the pain. "It worked" I mumbled quietly. "You feeling better?" He asked, I nodded and closed my eyes, I felt the relief spread through my body. 'I am safe today' I thought. I slowly began to fall asleep, Rythian said goodnight and left to go to Zoey, my pain and torment for the night was over.

Authors notes- alright so this was just a little chapter on the medicine (as there are already, sorry it's a bit repetitive sometimes) I this chapter Kira experiences the worst night of her life so far, that's basically it....this was the last chapter I had written before, so now it's back to writing new chapters, I will post them as I write them. Please share any ideas you may have, I am happy to listen to them (I get writers block easily) and please please please tell me what you think so far!
