Capítulo 18: Chapter 18
Eva sat on the bed. Killua had left quickly and Gon had went out for recon. She gripped the white sheets beneath her hands. She could feel herself slipping back to when Michael died. The black whole threatening to swallow her mind once more. She fought to stay awake against the welcoming darkness but she was to weak.
Red blood dripped off his chest. His face was turned away from her. *It not possible* she'd thought. *He can't be dead. Not yet.* But she couldn't see his chest rising. She couldn't see his eyes. Each foot step brought her closer to his body. *His looks cold.* Goosebumps formed on her arms even as the sun shone even fiercer. Was she still breathing? She couldn't tell. *It will be fine.* she told herself. *He's a raven. Raven's always fly back home.* She felt air enter her lungs again. Her burning lungs greedily gulping it up. She was sure he wasn't dead. He always came back. She steadied her hand as she reached out for his face. His black hair was soft. She smiled. *It was always soft.* Then her fingers closed around his face. His cold face. To cold. A shiver ran down her back. She closed her eyes, praying. Praying as she never had as her fingers slid down his neck. She waited, and waited. Silence. Wet salty tears sprang past her eyes. Her body hunched protectively over him. *No, he's not really dead! I just can't tell.* She fumbled as she cut her finger. *The spear* She tried to pull it out, but she couldn't. Furious she let out a cry as she began drawing around the spear. But the blood didn't soak in. Her blood coated his body. *No!* She kept drawing. It wasn't possible. *He always comes back.*
Cold hands closed around her shoulders. "Eva!" It was her brother. Sobs choked her throat. Hugo wrapped his arms around her. "Leave him Eva. Nothing can be done." Ingvar came up from behind them. He smoothly lifted the spear from Michaels chest. Clarity hit her like a hammer. Anger flashed in her eyes, "You!" *It's your spear* Ingvar bent down in front of her. There was no look of guilt or shame in his eyes. "It was orders Eva." She awoke with a start, soundless.
Her hands still gripped the sheets. She buried her head in a pillow. She loved him. Even now after all that happened the thought of him still struck her breathless. She pressed the pillow to her lips. Tears soaked into the pillow as she sobbed silently. The dizziness in her head pounded, threatening to break her control. Black eyes flashed in her mind. Her father's eyes. The expressionless face he'd shown her when she confronted him. She needed oxygen. Where was it? She lifted her head from the pillow. Her lungs were closing up. *Oxygen. I need oxygen.* She curled around the pillow. Her heart felt like it was collapsing in on itself. Squeezing itself as it tried to escape from its misery. She remembered her last job with her brothers. A ghost of herself. She could barely remember it. *My brothers.* Calmness began returning to her. Her heart slowing as she began to take small breaths. She wiped her eyes. She had a purpose. *They want to kill them* She took in a large breath. It felt like heaven. *I can't let them do that.* She didn't care what happened to their parents but she would never let them touch her brothers. *I'll kill them before that happens.* They were the only family she had left.
She looked towards Killua's room. Beginning to twist her hair. *What would they do if they found out she was one of them?* She set the pillow down, smoothing it as she took a breath. *They want to kill the Raven. Which means they want to kill me* Her hand paused. She couldn't picture Gon or Killua's lifeless form like she'd seen Michael's. If it came down to it, could she kill them? *There has to be another way.*
Her stomach rumbled. The stew sat on the bedside table. She had to eat something otherwise she wouldn't be able to come up with any countermeasure. She brought the spoon up to her lips. It smelled so good but the second she lifted it to her mouth her body violently rejected it. She layed back on the bed.
She was use to time skips. They happened all the time back in the Bloody Raven. But she hadn't had much time to think yet. *Somehow Gon and Killua got to the conclusion that my brothers were after them.* She twisted her hair between her fingers. *I'm lucky that Gon brought it up otherwise my paper excuses wouldn't have held up.* Her brothers still didn't know that Gon and Killua were after the Raven. They would continue being attacked until she was either taken back or left. *I have to get my nen back first.* There was no way she could stop them without it. *I need to find Xianxia. She knows how to get this bracelet off.* Her stomach rumbled again. She glanced at the stew and instantly thought of vomiting. She got to her feet. *Starving is not an option.* It was time to go.
