P/S: I LOVE YOU

Rachael trembling in cold as she tries her harder to flip her body. She focus to look around her surrounding. Her eyes caught an igloo figure not far from her point. She thought that igloo must be made by that jerk teacher of her. She sigh of relief. For a moment she really thought that heartless man would leave her to die here.

With all her energy left, she crawling to the igloo. Taking shelter and try to heat herself. She needs to wait at least two or three hours right? So, that is what she plans on to do. Wait.

Once she was inside the igloo, her could feel all her limb are crumbling and the coldness is killing her now. Her head feels so hurt and she couldn't stop shivering.

"Ugh…hold on, me. Just a few hours..co..come on..don't…don't die like this…Ra...Rachel." She tries to comfort herself.

….

Two and half hours later,

"Oops...I think I'm a bit overdoing it." Heath look at the girl who already passes out and freezing. Her fingernails already turn blue. Her face as white as sheet without any trace of blood on it. Her bruise on her body and wound looks like it has been infected too.

She is almost turning into a corpse.

He then bends down his body and carries the girl on his shoulder. Open the portal, he steps inside it. Her blood has been dripping from her nose and she is totally near her death door.

"What happen?! Why is she like this?" A woman shrieking when she saw Heath bringing a near-death girl on his shoulder.

"Shut up, Carla. Just treat her, will ya?" He walks pass by her and puts her on the bed which looks like a coffin before he closes it with a glass cover.

"Hurry, or she'll die and you have to answer it to the principle and the King too." He then went to the sofa and pour himself a cup of water.

Without waiting anymore, the woman in the white dress went to the incubator bed which is designated to healing the serious and internal wound.

She used her magic emblem to make it work and once it operates, Rachael injured body starts to show a reaction from the magic heat inside the incubator. Her wound starts to re-attached back and all her bruise slowly faded.

Sighing seeing the girl's body start to accept the magic healing, she then turns around and gawking at the man who sits nonchalantly at the sofa while drinking.

"Why is she like this?"

"Why else? She went training with me." He replies casually.

"Training?! You're killing her!"

"No, I'm not. See. She still breathing and recover in there." He shrugged his shoulder.

"Heath…the last time you do this extreme training is with that traitor. Are you intending to make her a weapon just like what you did to that traitor?" Carla snarl at him, she still can't believe he dares to make the weak girl into his weapon.

"Don't bring him up. She is different than that brat."

"Yeah? In what way?" She folds her arm around her chest, waiting for his answer.

"I don't intend to make her my weapon. She needs to go through this training or else she can't survive in here." Heath sips his drink and avoided eye contact with the woman who is staring at him like she's gonna eat him alive.

Squint her eyes, she growls in annoyed. "You see..if this girl turns like that traitor, you'll lose your head. Somehow, I wonder why you always want to turn a person into a killing beast."

"Carla…" He glances at her with a serious expression.

"I'm done doing that. Don't you think that I regret it too for making him like that? Don't talk like you stand in my shoes." He put down the glass and walk toward the door. Ready to leave her room.

Carla gasp a bit. She didn't intend to hurt him since he's not someone who easily put everything in his heart. Now, looking at his face make her feel a bit guilty. She wants to say sorry but he cut her first.

"Just send her back to her dorm once she regains her conscious." He said over his shoulder and leave the room.

Slam!

Carla shut her eyes while exhaling a bit. "Dammit, Carla. You just poke right through his wound. Good job, huh?" She curses herself.

She then turns her body to the incubator. She trails her eyes to the girl inside the incubator bed. "Just..don't turn into him, please."

…

Knock! Knock!

Zoro standing in front of Rachael's room. Today he been busy planning and drawing with Master Kei until late in the evening. So the first thing he does when he returns to the dorm is to find his lover.

He wants to surprise her with the thing he just made for her. Hoping that she likes it. She must like it, she likes him anyway.

Clack!

"Oh..Uh...Ning Zhi..why your face like that?" He's a bit surprised to see Ning Zhi is the one who opens the door and her forehead..hmm..seems hurt.

Ning Zhi almost cries. She sniffles a bit before she said. "This is my punishment for today."

"Huh? Day one, and you already got your punishment?" Zoro tilts his head a bit. Trying to look at her forehead. It's so red and it can be clearly seen because of her skin as fair as snow.

She nods her head and pouts a bit. "Do you have any ointment that Kyra gives which happen to work on this?" She asks when she remembers that Kyra did give them some medicine before.

"Oh, wait." Zoro takes off his sling bag and rummages it to find the medicine sack Kyra gives them.

"Aha...Here. She writes it for the bruise and inflames wound." He handed a glass jar to her.

"Thanks." Ning Zhi took the jar and open it to apply it on her forehead.

"By the way, where is Rach? I want to see her." Zoro peeks a bit behind the door, try to look for Rachael.

"Hm? She still not returning yet."

"But..it's quite late now." Zoro starts to feel a bit anxious.

"Maybe she still in training?"

Sighing, he nods his head. Yup, she is working hard right now. So he also needs to do his best for their future too.

"Um..hey, can you help me?"

"Hm? Sure." Ning Zhi close back the jar and look up at the man in front of her.

Slowly Zoro took out a wrapped paper inside his bag and give it to Ning Zhi.

"Give this to Rachael. Say to her that I made this special for her. Once I am able to create something more useful, I'll make whatever she wants, okay?"

"Wow..you sounded like a doted husband now." She chuckles and took the wrapped paper. "I'll tell her that. Don't worry."

"Thanks, Ning Zhi." He smiles at her.

When he wants to turn around his body from the door, he suddenly remembers something. It's also one of his intention to see her.

"Um, another one Ning Zhi."

Ning Zhi lifts up her eyebrow.

"Still have another message?" She asks.

Nod his head, he chuckles a bit. "If we're in our world right now, I would just text her. Easy and save time too."

"Hahah...I know right…maybe we should start to use an ancient way to write a loves letter?"

"That's so….lame."

"Come on..we live in ages where I don't know how we should put it."

"Yup. Anyway, cut that.."

"Yeah, yeah..go on.."

"I will be off for a few days. Tell her, once I return I'll meet her again."

"Okay..got it. Plus, P/S: I LOVE YOU, right?" She winks at him, teasing him.

"Yeah. That's sound..lovely too. Thanks." He bid her goodbye and went back to his room.
