Do something... I need to do something!

A part of me wants to grab a katana and slain that stupid snake for giving us harm. But another part of me says that the best thing to do now, is getting sensei recovered. How do I do that, though?!

I take a deep breath trying to calm myself down and prevent panicking. It'll only make things worse that how it already is.

Painful groans can be heard underneath me. Sensei is sweating hard, his condition is getting worse by the second. I quickly get off from him and drag him into the cottage.

I lay the shinobi down on the couch. I don't have the slightest idea of what should I do next. Everything is just too fast, too sudden that it blocked my brain from thinking straight.

I quickly wrap bandages above the bite marks so as to stop the venom from spreading. But that's all the knowledge I have, this isn't enough.

"Come on Kaoru...think!" I murmur to myself. I turn my head to sensei, he seems to be in pain, like seriously I've never seen him like that. I don't like it for some odd reasons. Aren't I a sadist? Why should I worry?

Hey, who cares about that? I somehow have this feeling that my life depends on it for whatever reason that is.

What is the best thing to do when your teacher gets bitten my a venomous snake? Damn it, I don't know.

Did you actually think I'd suck out the venom? Haha oh hell nah. He ain't worth me risking my life for him. Perhaps, he is. But that idea just doesn't seem pleasant to me. Not at all.

"Sata- I mean, god, if you hear my prayers, please grant my wish, just this once, please let him live longer until-"

"Quit praying, dumbass"

Huh? Who said that? Who dares to call me dumb?!

As far as I know, there's only one person who's daring enough to say it to my face. And that is, without a doubt....

I slowly turn my head back to the victim on the couch. That jerk is sitting up like he was just taking a normal nap.

"What the hell sensei? How...you..? Aren't you hurt?!"

"Stupid Kaoru. Just who do you think I am?" He says, untying the bandage. The bite marks slowly fading away.

Is this some kind of magic trick? That guy's a magus?!

"Come here" he gestures.

"Are you sure you're..."

"Just come here. I'm completely okay. Really"

I walk towards him and sit beside him on the couch. His right hand goes up to my face and flicks my forehead.

"Ow. What's wrong with you?!" I shout angrily while rubbing my forehead.

Sensei chuckles. "You see, Kaoru. That one earlier wasn't 'that' poisonous. It was but, not enough to kill lives. In other words, it's not life-threatening"

My mouth forms an 'O' shape as I listen. So I was worried for nothing.

"All it did was getting us sweating and panting although it seems like it's serious. The affect wears off quite quickly as well"
