My first TohruXHatori story. It is mainly going to be focused on them, but Akito is going to be in here with another person (that would ruin the story if I told you now). One of my reviewers on Saki and Megumi oneshots wanted more multi-chapter HatoriXTohru stories. This is my thank you present for reviewing.

When Tohru's mom almost dies, she comes into Hatori's care. There is one way to save her, but how much is Tohru willing to sacrifice?

My Mother's Savior

Tohru Honda was sitting in a classroom trying to pay attention when a teacher suddenly came into the room. "Tohru, I have to tell you something." Tohru got up and stood next to the teacher. His tone went down to a whisper. "Your mom was just involved in a car accident and is in the hospital." Tohru ran out of the room and the teacher quickly followed her. He noticed that she was heading out. "Stop Tohru. You can't leave school like this!"

"I have too. I have to see Mom. If she isn't alright, what will I do?" Tohru began to cry.

Suddenly, Saki and Uo were by her side. Uo began to comfort Tohru by assaulting the teacher. "How dare you make her cry! Of course she wants to get out of school! Her mom is hurt!"

Saki spoke up. "I think what the teacher means is that Tohru doesn't have a ride. I already called for my parents to take us to the hospital."

"Thanks Saki," Tohru said as the car pulled up, "look, the car is here! Mom, I'm coming! Don't die! Don't die!" Her face was already red and puffy due to the tears. Her usual smile was well gone off her face. She didn't look like the Tohru we all know and love. Tohru bolted out of the car and into the hospital with no warning. The cars honked their horns but Tohru didn't car. She just had to see her mom. It was her fault if she didn't get there in time. If she only said goodbye to her today, maybe she wouldn't be in this situation. She ran to the information desk. "Do you know where Kyoko Honda is?" Tohru asked.

"Oh, she is still in the E.R." Tohru bolted, but the information desk wasn't done. "The E.R is on the second story. I don't want you to get lost honey." Tohru normally would of said thank you, but there wasn't time today. Even the elevators were slow and Tohru just took the stairs. Her friends were no longer in sight, but the E.R was. "Where is Kyoko Honda?" Tohru asked.

"Over here in Dr. Hatori's office." The desk person pointed to a small office. Tohru ran to it and opened the door. There lied her mother, hooked up to life support. She was barely alive, but she was alive. Tohru took her hand. She was going to be here until she waked up. She will wake up! She has too! She wouldn't leave me alone in this world, would she? Why am I thinking these thoughts? Mom wouldn't be proud of me. I should think about her only getting better. At that time, a brown haired doctor walked in.

(I'm switching to Hatori.)

I saw here there lying next to a dying patient named Kyoko Honda. This must be her daughter. She doesn't look anything like her. She looks familiar though. I just can't put my finger on who. It was just her crying there that is triggering something. Then he remembered. That girl reminds me of Kana. She is blaming herself for the accident. I saw those eyes before. "Are you Tohru Honda?" The girl nodded. "It's going to be alright." Truly, I knew that this patient was going to die. I just wanted the girl to stop crying.

"She is not going to die, is she?" Tohru asked.

"No, she isn't." Why did I just say that? She was going to die. There isn't a way to save her. What am I going to do? Pray to God for a miracle? A lightbulb just went off in Hatori's head. That just might work. "I'll do everything and anything possible to save your mother. I won't let her die, I promise."

"Thank you." Tohru just gave me a hint of a smile. Then two more poeple came into the room. One was a blond haired gangester, and the other one was gothic. "Uo, Saki..." The two girls went and gave her a hug. "Mom isn't going to die." She looked so grateful for what I said. I just hoped I could back up my claim.

Author's note:

Man, this chapter is short. The others will be longer, I promise. I'll tell you later what this is based on.
