(EDIT: Didn't want to double post, so modified this one to make it fit. Yay.)
Taj simply focused on the task of healing the Hyuga child, not replying until the Juunin turned to go. Words of condulence and healing would mean nothing for now, so he would hold her in his prayers. The Kaguya would conscent himself with telling her what she could do for now.
"Juunin, recover the boy's heart wherever it might be hidden, and he will have the chance of survival. Anything more, I can not promise more in good faith. Travel with the Kami."
*A few hours latter*
Totora lay asleep in a hospital room on the third floor, his limbs healed and system cleared of chakra supressive drugs. The deaf Hyuga was sedated, descrete spirit repuslive wards hung around the room, triggered to alert Taj should anything or anyone not quite of this world attempt to interfere with the boy.

After about a ten minute walk Kazuma ended up in front of the Hospital standing in front of it. Hesitating to go in. What if Totora wasn't healed yet. But then again the medics here at the hospital were good. Right?
He walked into the building looking around at all the people. The white haired chuunin scanning around the entrance before moving to the front counter, "Excuse me where is Totora's room?" he asked the woman looking up to see the young chuunin.
"He in room 320 on the third floor however he shouldn't be seeing anyone right now," she replied to him Kazuma getting disappointed but then again when did he really ever listen to authority?
"Alright thanks I'll wait," Kazuma replied walking toward the waiting room. His body flickering to appear in front of the stairs. He wanted to see him. He needed to know that he was at least getting better or something.
He quickly went up the stairs exiting out of the stair door to the third floor. His head peeking out to make sure no one was in the hall, who mattered, to stop him from entering Totora's room. Seeing no one important Kazuma quickly went in front of the room Totora was said to be in. His eyes looking at the door knob hesitating.
Should he go in? After all the nurse said that he couldn't see anyone. But then again he needed to know if he was OK. Kazuma quietly turned the knob slowly opening the door and entering the room. Quietly closing the door behind him. His eyes looking at the sleeping Hyuuga. Eyes filled with despair for his fellow shinobi. Totora didn't do anything to deserve what he did.
In his mind he pictured the heart the bastard had. He remembered how he squeezed it and Totora was screaming in pain. He remembered how the guy explained how it was the Hyuuga's heart. But then how was he alive? Kazuma continued to think he depressing thoughts as stood next to the door just staring.

Kaguya Taj was quietly purifying a blood donation for another paitient on the same floor of the hospital when the the wards faintly reacted to the demon Chuunin's presense in Totora's room. He straightened and looked at the other Medic Nin in the room with him, monotoning, "Excuse me for a moment."
The Kaguya monk flickered and reappeared within the deaf Genin's room, eyes imediately picking out Kazuma. Not an Ikibuke... He frowned, looking down at the boy, "I hope you have a good reason for being here, child, where no one should be."

(chuunin not genin)
The young demon continued to look at the Hyuuga with sad eyes. Feeling sorry for him the young chuunin couldn't help but place blame a pond his sensei for allowing that bastard to take him in the first place. However he knew that way wrong to think of him. Especially when he wasn't all that much help in saving him.
His yellow demon eyes looking to the side as someone flickered into the room. His eyes examining the guy immediately noticing the two dots on his forehead. They were the same as the dots on Yoh's forehead. "Kaguya," he said softly a look of surprise on his face. He had thought Yoh was the last Kaguya but seeing this guy proved him wrong.
When he heard what he said his face looked back at Totora, "Sorry I just wanted to see how he was doing and I just couldn't wait till later to see," he replied to the medic looking back at him, "He's.... he's going to be OK right?"

(My bad. Most apoligetic.)
Taj considered this for a second, following Kazuma's gaze to the sleeping Hyuga, grim, "His flesh has been healed as much as it may be healed here. The rest... Only the Kami know what may be done for that which has been taken from him, Peaceful One have mercy on his soul."
He looked back to Kazuma, "For now though... Please leave this place. I have placed wards to warn me if those like yourself in nature but of far darker intention come to take him, and... false alarms waste all needed time."

(Meh your not the first)
Kazuma listened to the Kaguya's words as he spoke. The young demon really feeling sorry for the Hyuuga. Totora didn't deserve to have that happen to him. And the fact that he was already part of the Branch Family made things worst since now he had another curse place a pond him. Kazuma learning of what the seal on Totora's forehead was thanks to Kakashi.
"Right I'm sorry I just wanted to see how he was doing," Kazuma stated as he began to exit openign the door softly not going through just yet as he looked toward Taj once more. "Is there anyway to fix him?" he asked wanting to know if there was anything he could do.

"With faith, all things are possible," replied Taj softly, herding the Chuunin gently out the door before closing it with a click again, "But his Sensei has departed on an aparent quest to recover the one thing with the best hope of healing him outside of the Mercy of the Kunai. Peace be on you for offering this comradeship to him."

Kazuma felt himself being pushed out gentaly. His demon eyes watching as the Kaguya closed the door to Totora's room. His ears listening to him as he spoke. Eyes twitch hearing the part about Aliana. The young chuunin unable to understad why she aggitated him so.
"Right thanks for the comforting knowleage," Kazuma replied to him thanking him for telling him for how Totora was. Kazuma's eyes looking up at him wondering, "Hey do you mind me asking who you are, I don't recall ever seeing you in the village before," Kaz asked wanting to know.

Tilting his head to one side, the Kaguya Monk replied with a soft smile, "No offense taken. Knowledge allows us the chance to become us better beings. I am Kaguya Taj, a Monk of the Peaceful One, originally a Chuunin from the Land of Stone before I took up my oath of nonviolence. I am new to this village, remaining to help and heal until one of my younger kin returns from a mission so that I can teach him one final lesson or two."
He chuckled to himself, "Even in that, I probably indulge a whim of mine to the detrement of others."

(I'm late)
Tsunade walked down the halls of the Hospital, work had caused her to be late. She had had to file Kaji's return slips, as well as Anko's mission slips. According to what Anko had told her, they had recovered Totora but he was in bad condition. Of course, being Hokage as well as a medical ninja extrodinare, she often visted injured patients and helped cure them.
She got to the room Totora was said to be held in and found Kaji's chuunin Kazuma as well as Taj, the old Kaguya. By the way Taj was talking she figured that he had been in charge of curing him. "Excuse me, I'm here to see Totora, I want to know his medical condition," She said, addressing the Kaguya.

The Kaguya Monk drew himself up formally at the arrival of Tsunade, bowing deeply to demonstrate his respect not only for her authority and prowess as Hokage but also for her skill as a healer, a skill even his teachers had refered to with great respect. It heartened him that even one of the Villages had chosen a leader famed as much for healing as for physical might. It gave hope for peace.
"Hokage Tsunade-sama, I will be glad to inform you, but please first tell me what you know of the Ikibuke so that I can avoid overt insult. Their... sickness of body and soul lies at the base of the Genin's condition, his other injuries already taken care of and hsi body drugged into a healing slumber."

Kazuma listened to the Kaguya as he told him who he was. A surprised look going on his face when he mentioned that he was waiting for his younger kin. So the guy already knew Yoh how odd how two people from an extinced clan could actaully find each other. The village was huge so finding someone was't easy.
He was about to speak up and inntroduce himself until he heard the Hokage's voice. The chuunin not really botherig with so much as a wave or bow for she seemed to come just to check up on Totora. A confused look going on his face at the name of Ikibuke since he didn't recall ever hearing the name before. The chuunin deciding to stick around maybe learn a thing or two about these Ikibuke.

Tsunade picked up the chart by Totora’s bedside. “Ikibuke eh? I’ve read a bit about them, not a nice thing at all,” Tsunade knew not even her medical skills could cure him completely, unless she could construct a new heart for him. His chakra was drained and blocked but seemed to be on the mend. Again the feeling of helplessness appeared, just like it did when she couldn’t save the love of her life, Dan. She wanted this genin to live, but she herself could do very little.

(Tenten, you're alive! ) Taj had followed the Hokage back into Totora's room, features controlled over subtle unease strumming through his mind and body. "Nice is the furthest thing from what the Ikikbuke are, a cancer of body and soul that even the Peaceful One would not tolerate. He has been made into one of them in body, and I fear for his mind when he awakens and the foul spirits the Ikikbuke encourage seek him out as a 'partner'. The child's teacher has aparently gone in search of his heart, with or without your command, Hokage-Sama."
The Kaguya Monk paused, not wanting to be over bearing in this situation.

(grounded...but alive none the less)
Tsunade sighed, it was very much like Aliana to leave without asking, she often acted quickly. Tsunade had learned to ignore it. Afterall she too had been abit rash as a child. "I would have guessed, but no matter, Aliana is a loyal shinobi I know for a fact she will return," She turned to face the old Kaguya, "Tell me, what has been used to treat him so far?" She asked.
