Surfacing
Yoruichi wasn't sure what was going on. She just knew that she was very hot and very tired. She was just so hot. Was she in a desert? She remembered laying down on Kisuke's futon awhile ago to get some rest. She hadn't been feeling well for the past few days and had hoped that a nap would help her feel better. It didn't seem to have worked, and Yoruichi quite honestly wasn't sure if she was still at the Urahara Shoten. The purple clouds tipped her off to something not being quite right. Maybe she was dreaming. That would explain a lot.
She could hear a voice though. Someone was speaking to her. She knew that voice, but she just couldn't remember who it belonged to. Yoruichi closed her eyes in order to remember just who that voice belonged to, and the next thing she was aware of she was surrounded by ice. And fish. Fish with bright green wings that were flying. Weren't fish supposed to be in water? She woke, gasping. A cool hand touched her forehead, and her eyes fell shut.
And she was hot again. Hot, stuffy, and there was something heavy on top of her, making it hard to breathe. Yoruichi knew that she was missing something here. She had to remember. It was important. But whatever was on top of her was too heavy. She couldn't escape. She was trapped. And then as she started to panic, her eyes snapped open.
Yoruichi woke on a futon, the blankets kicked to the side. The room was dark, but she could make out a familiar form sitting next to her. She was really awake now. There was a cool cloth on her forehead, and Kisuke was gently running his fingers through her hair.
"Kisuke?" Her voice sounded hoarse and croaky.
"How are you feeling, Yoru-hime?"
"Tired and confused."
Kisuke smiled down at her. "Your fever just broke last night. You've been pretty restless the entire time. I think you'll have an easier time of sleeping down. Here."
He helped her sit up and held a cup of water to her lips. She gulped the cool water thankfully. It did help her throat at least.
Kisuke brushed a kiss across her forehead. "Go back to sleep, Yoru-hime."
