Chapter 11 // You Promised

◇« ✿ »◇

Weightless and Helpless.

As Aya was falling from mid-air in darkness and bleeding, and she felt like she was going to die.

Never in her life, she feared death.

Never fears death that she would die on her own.

That's probably how her mother felt when the flames ate her alive.
and then the burning memory of her mother appeared.

Then her smile appeared.

"I love you infinitely, Aya. Always"

A cling of the pendant made a sound as it dangled around her neck ~

Aya's eyes snapped open. The air in her ears indicates she was still falling. For a moment she thought she lost consciousness. The pendant appears right in front of her, and it sparked. She lets out a shaken gasp

Mama...

Until someone catches her swiftly. A pair of arms securely carries her, placing her gently on the ground to lean against the tree. It was too sudden that Aya had to shut her eyes. She slowly opens them to see him...

It was Indra.

Aya can't tell if he is angry or not but she is slowly getting dizzy, holding on to the wounded arm.
Indra gets up and helps Asura. He knocks them down completely and permanently. His fist clenched and his back fixed his little brother.

"Elder brother..." Asura pants.

"Asura. What happened.." Indra said coldly.

"Aya and I were heading towards you...until...until theses guys showed up...but they looked...looked strange." He puts his hands on his knees to catch his breath.

"strange?" Indra asked turning around, "strange enough to put her on a high tree," he points at Aya, "and fall?!"

Oh, he is angry.

"I thought she would be safe there until those possessed men start throwing knives at her direction but....but there was a chilly sensation that someone was present. Here and controlling them."

Indra's spine sends electric signals.

It...did that?...that son of a...

His fist clenched and so did his jaw for that bastard to send normal civilians to kill the most two important people in his life...
Asura couldn't read his facial expression. Indra huffs striding his attention to Aya. He kneels down and sees her panting and sweating. She is losing blood.

"Asura, get water by the creek..it's not that far from here," Indra says.
"How am I...her wound..."

"Cut a bamboo and bring it over to her. I'll stop the bleeding." Indra's voice sounded harsh but Asura didn't mind so he hurried. Indra never uses his medical jutsu and it's the first time he is going to use it. Aya lets out a whimper and Indra removes her hand from the wound.

He gently holds her forearm and his left hand hovered over slightly it and his medical jutsu activates. It slowly closed. It wasn't that big or small, but she lost a lot of blood quickly, thankfully it won't leave a scar on her gracious skin.
Indra checked her temperature and realizes she is losing her color.  An idea came to mind so he infused his chakra to her body, using the teachings of his father. Her chakra nature began to bloom inside her regaining the reflection of her pigment, a brown olive skin color. He even memorized the color of her chakra and her signature with his dojutsu.
