After she got up she looked through the hole in the tree and seen that it was hollow inside. She started to walk around it until she found a opening that was hidden from view. When she was inside she watch the townspeople run right pass her through the hole in the tree. When morning came she went out, she was so tired that she fell back on the ground after she was outside and leaned back against the tree. As she was sitting there she heard someone in the distant coming her way and tired to get up but managed to leaned on her dislocated arm as she was and let a loud cry in pain. When she fell back against the tree she looked up at a young woman with light blue eyes and long black hair kneeling down in front of her. She was wearing a long white dress with light purple flowers along the bottom and the end of the selves with more flowers around the neckline of the dress.
"Are you okay?, I heard you scream." Said the young woman in a soft voice as she was looking at her with a concern look on her face. "I don't know, I… I can't feel my arm." Said Ikyo in a low voice as she was holding her arm to her side with her starting to lose her vision after she looked at her. "What's your name, little one?" Asked the young woman calmly as she was looking at her with a worried look more than a scared one. "Ik… Ikyo, Ikyo Oma." Said Ikyo in a soft gentle voice after she looked back at her after shaking her head slightly. "What are you doing out here all by yourself?" Asked the young woman in a soft calm voice as she was looking her over and seen all the cut and bruises on her. "I… I was looking for my older brothers." Said Ikyo in a low soft voice before she let out another loud cry in pain after trying to get up then she started to cringe in pain after she sat back down. "Let me help you." Said the young woman quickly after she got up and reached her hand down to her. "Aren't you scared of me because of my eyes?" Said Ikyo sadly after she looked up at her hand then turned her head away to her side. "No, why should I, just because your different, we're both outcasts of the village outside this forest anyways." Said the young woman in a soft sweet voice then smiled sligthly at her for a moment as she was looking down at her.
Ikyo looked up at her then at her hand thinking to herself if she should trust this woman to help her when she doesn't even know her. "Oh how rude of me, I asked for your name but I didn't tell you mine, my name is Nie-orya, Nie-orya Maketow." Said Nie-orya in a soft gentle voice after brushing her hair behind her ear then reached her hand back down to Ikyo and smiled brightly down at her. Ikyo slowly moved her hand towards hers, Nie-orya then tightly held it and quickly pulled her up to her feet and tossing her arm around her neck. "Thank you Nie-orya for your helping but I have to find my brothers as soon a possible." Said Ikyo in a low voice as they was walking. "Your welcome my home is not that far from here and I don't think you'll be going off anywhere so soon with you like this not until I help you." Said Nie-orya strongly back to her then she looked at her sadly. When they got into the house Nie-orya sat Ikyo down on a couch.
"Mother Na-aida!" Said Nie-orya loudly down one of the halls that was full of rooms before she went back to Ikyo after she tried to get up of the couch and fell back on it. "What is it Nie-orya?" Asked Mother Na-aida strongly after she came out from one of the rooms. When Ikyo looked at her she seen that she had the most darkest brown eyes that she had ever seen. Her was short just brushing against her shoulders and it was just as dark that it almost looked like it was black excepted for the ends of her that was lightly brown. She was wearing a long ligth purple dress with two light blue stripes around the bottom and neckline. "Oh my goodness!" Said Mother Na-aida in surprise after she looked at Ikyo who was a total mess because her clothes was so dirty with blood all over her. "Can you help her? I found her like this in the forest not that far from here and I brought here their was a lot of footprints around her. I think the townspeople ran her out into the forest because she looks so different and her arm is mess up pretty bad." Said Nie-orya calmly then she went to the kitchen to get a towel and bowl of warm water as Mother Na-aida was looking her over. "I'll see what I can do." Said Mother Na-aida calmly then she went into a room and came out with some bandages after Nie-orya came back to her.
"That's too cold!" Said Ikyo quickly after Nie-orya started to clean her face and she jumped back from her. "But it's warm water." Said Nie-orya in a puzzled voice after sitting the towel back in the bowl. "Things that are hot to you feel cold to me because of the... I have to go now I have to find my brothers!" Said Ikyo strongly then she quickly starting to get up but Nie-orya pushed her back down. "Oh no, your not going anywhere until we deal with your arm and all these cuts on your body. Mother Na-aida and I are going to help you after that you may not even be able to go anywhere for a least a few days." Said Nie-orya sharply to her then Mother Na-aida came back with a cold towel and she placed it on some of the cuts on top of her leg. "Oww! But I have to go find my brothers before something bad happens to them!" Said Ikyo strongly after she quickly pulled her hand and towel away and started to cringe in pain. "What's your name child?" Asked Mother Na-aida calmly after she sat down next to her and Ikyo moved slightly away from her. "My… Ikyo Oma." Said Ikyo in a low nervous voice as she was looking down at the floor in front of her. She watched Nie-orya run the towel out and started to clean the cuts on her legs then wrapped them up in some bandages.
"Look at me Ikyo… (she slowly looked up at her) I what you try and lift your arm for me okay sweetie." Said Mother Na-aida in a soft gentle voice that sounded so sweet to Ikyo that she found herself not as nervous of her as she was before after hearing it. "Okay." Said Ikyo in a calm voice then she let go of her other arm and lifted her arm up in front of her. After she did Nie-orya started to clean the cuts on it and wrapped it tightly up in some more bandages. "Good, now the other one please so we can see what's wrong with it." Said Mother Na-aida in a calm voice after smiling slightly at her for a moment. "I can't." Said Ikyo strongly as she was holding her arm closer to her side after shaking her head no. "Why? Can you move it a little bit for me?" Asked Mother Na-aida in a soft voice as Ikyo was looking down at the floor as she was quivering a little from thinking adout the pain. "No, it hurts when I do." Said Ikyo sadly after she looked up at her then she looked away after she started to feel tears in her eyes and started to hold her arm tightly.
"Okay, I know what to do now, this may hurt a little Ikyo but you'll feel way better after it's done." Said Mother Na-aida in a soft gentle voice then she smiled slightly at her for a moment. "O... okay." Said Ikyo in a low soft voice as she was slightly rubbing her arm. "Nie-orya." Said Mother Na-aida calmly then she looked at her seriously. "Yes, Mother Na-aida?" Asked Nie-orya in a soft voice after she looked at her. "I need you to grab Ikyo's arm then put your hand on her shoulder. After I want you to pull it toward you as hard as can at same time I need you to push on her shoulder, understand." Said Mother Na-aida strongly after she looked at her arm one more time before she looked back at her. "Okay." Said Nie-orya calmly then she grabbed Ikyo's arm after she nodded at her. Ikyo started to bit on the side of her lip because she knew what was going to happen. A long time ago she had seen her older brother Houmeru pop her younger brother Yasha arm back in place after he got hurt and it looked like it was really painful and now she knew it was. "I know your in pain right now dear but this is the only way we can fix you're your arm." Said Mother Na-aida in a calm soft voice as she was looking at her sadly. Ikyo looked at her then nodded as she continued to bit on the side her lip.
Mother Na-aida looked at Nie-orya then nodded to her after she seen Ikyo had tightly close her eyes. Nie-orya then quickly pulled on Ikyo's arm and popped it back in place making Ikyo let out a loud scream in pain after. "Augghhh!!" Said Ikyo strongly then she started to rub her arm after she let it go and was holding it to her side. "How dose it feel now?" Asked Mother Na-aida calmly as she was looking at her sadly. "Can you move it?" Asked Nie-orya in a soft voice as she was looking at her with a concern look on her face. "If feel much better even though that really hurt but now I can move it. (she then started to move her arm around when she started to roll her shoulder she cringed in pain for a moment before she smiled slightly at Nie-orya in front of her) Thank you both of you for helping me but I really have to go find my…" Said Ikyo calmly then she tired to get up but got really dizzy and fell back down. "Whoa! Slow down, are you okay, tell me what's wrong Ikyo? Asked Nie-orya quickly after she fell back down and was leaning her head back on the couch with her hand on her forehead.
"I don't know, I was okay just a minute ago but as soon as I tried to get up my head felt overwhelmed by something all of a sudden." Said Ikyo calmly after she sat back on the couch then looked at them sadly. She then tried to sit up a little more after she did she looking down at the floor and everything starting to get real blurry then she was started to lose her vision. "Oh no, your not going anywhere, your going to stay rigth here and rest until your better. Nie-orya will get you something for your head and I will set you up a bed in her room so she can't make sure you don't run away in the morning while I'm working in town." Said Mother Na-aida strongly then she slowly pushed her back on the couch after she nodded to Nie-orya who went to go get something to help with her head and dizziness as she was laying back on the couch and pulled her hoodie over her ears the she quickly opened her eyes as she head started spinning with all kinds of thoughts. "But." Said Ikyo quickly after a minute or so had passed before she tried to get up once again but Nie-orya pull her back down from behind her. She then looked back at her then she started to look around the room and seen that Mother Na-aida had already left to the kitchen before she could say what was on her mind after it was clear. She soon came back with a bottle of clear liquid in her hand to go with her herbs that Nie-orya got from her room.
"Nie-orya before we give her this lets takes her to your room to the spare bed because she may feel a little drowsy for a few minutes. If she lays down it would be much safe for her." Said Mother Na-aida strongly then she looked at Ikyo and let out a small sigh. "Okay." Said Nie-orya in a soft calm voice then she looked back at Ikyo who seemed to be getting worst because she could see she was now in a cold sweat. "Can you walk right now?" Asked Nie-orya calmly as she was kneeling down in front of her. "I… I don't know." Said Ikyo in a low voice as she was holding her forehead as she had her leaning back on the couch. "Let's see if you can I'll catch you if you start to fall, okay." Said Nie-orya in a soft calm voice then she took Ikyo's hand after she nodded slightly to her. Ikyo could hardly see anything after she had helped her up onto her feet, she started trying to step towards her and soon began to fall, Nie-orya quickly caught her and helped her stand back up. "Whoa! Let us help you to my room I can see already that you can't even lift one foot off the ground before you start falling without someone beside you." Said Nie-orya strongly as she was holding her up on her feet in front of her then Mother Na-aida started to guide them to the room. "Thank you again Nie-orya." Said Ikyo in a low voice then she looked at her and give her a slight smile for a moment. "You're welcome." Said Nie-orya calmly then she smiled slightly back at her as they was slowly walking towards her room.
