Cured

Letting out a long, soft sigh, Ishida laid back down on the bed from walking around in circles. But, from hearing Tessai walk in, he rose up, "Tessai-san? What is--"

He held up a vial filled with a bright blue liquid. He handed it to him, "Take this, Ishida-san."

Ishida blinked, "What...?"

"It is your cure."

From that, Ishida took the vial and studied it carefully. He then glanced at Tessai, "Should I take it--"

"As is. That's what Boss told me."

"Ah." Ishida nodded, as he uncorked the lid. He tilted his head back and swallowed his cure, whole.

And, suddenly, the blue spots on his arms started to disappear.

From seeing his arms clear, Ishida sighed. "Oh, they're gone. Thank goodness."

Tessai chuckled, "I'll tell Boss how you're doing now."

Ishida stood up and nodded, "Alright. And, tell him I said thank you for the cure."

Tessai nodded, before he left, "Alright, Ishida-san. Good to see you're better again."

"Oh yes." Ishida nodded, as he continued to look over his now clean, soft arms. "I am."
