STORY STORYSTORY
A redheaded boy with emerald eyes was looking out of the window not really paying attention to what his teacher was saying. The teacher didn't mind. Shuichi was the best student after all. He could afford it.
Shuichi Minamino – or Kurama as his best friend called him – sighed. He didn't know why he had that day such a bad feeling. He was distracted all day and some fear began to form in the back of his mind. Something sure was wrong. He shifted uncomfortably in his chair and looked up when he heard his teacher writing something at the blackboard. He was glad that was his last class. He couldn't wait till he'll get home. Shuichi sighed and copied the notes to his notebook. Just let it pass quickly. He thought.
Everybody – including teacher- was surprised when Shuichi rushed from the classroom along with school bell. He quickly ran down the stairs and hurried home. At home he opened the doors. "Mother! I'm home!" The only answer was silence. The boy frowned. "Mother?" He went to kitchen. "Mother, are you home?" He looked to every room and his mother was nowhere to be seen. He still felt that stupid feeling and it didn't help that he didn't find his mother at home. Kurama went frowning to his room. Where is she? Shuichis father died when he was still a little kid so he didn't know him. He knew only what Shiori told him about his dad. Shiori was his only family. So Kurama always tried to please her and to protect her. He tried to give her everything what she wanted – that was why he was the best student. The redhead was frowning at his bag. He had to study for the test that was going to be the next day. Reaching for his books he sighed. Where is she? He wasn't studying for long when he heard the phone rang. Maybe it's mother… He rushed down to pick it up. "Minamino residence. Shuichi's speaking."
"I'm sorry, but are you son of Shiori Minamino?"
Kurama frowned. That feeling was back. "Yes. Who's calling?"
Then his eyes widened and his heart came to death stop when he heard the only word that was said by the other. "Hospital."
--------------------------------------------------------
It didn't take him more than five minutes to get to the hospital after the call ended. He rushed to first nurse he saw and asked. "Where can I find Shiori Minamino?"
"Shuichi Minamino, I suppose?" Kurama turned and saw a doctor in middle years with glasses on his nose.
"Yes. Can you please tell me where my mother is?" Shuichi was more than just worried.
The doctor sighed. "Can you please go with me? I need to tell you something first." Kurama nodded unable to speak. "Please follow me."
Once they got to doctors room Shuichi was too nervous to remain silent. "What's wrong with my mother?"
"Shiori Minamino was brought here in really bad shape… Her lungs are damaged; we had to put her on apparatuses. Right now she's in coma."
"What – What happened?"
"From what we know she was hit by a car. The man didn't stop to help."
"Oh god…" The boy felt the tears coming to his eyes.
"I'm really sorry to say this, but… we're not sure… she may die."
Shuichi bowed his head. "Can – can I please see her?"
"Yes, but… As I said she's in coma."
The redhead just nodded – his voice was too weak to say anything. The doctor looked sympathetically at the young man before him. He could imagine how he felt. "She's in room 32, I'll take you there."
"Thank you." Shuichi mumbled.
"Please, this way."
-----------------------------------------
Shuichi was sitting on the chair near the bed where his mother was sitting, holding her hand. He smiled sadly. "You know mother right now you seems as if you're only sleeping." The tears were in his eyes so he blinked to clear his vision. "Yeah… I'll just wait till you wake up and then we'll go home together, okay?" Was he expecting an answer? He didn't know. He just felt guilty. "I'm sorry I didn't protect you. I'm horrible son." He whispered.
The doctor Shuichi was talking to earlier put a hand on his shoulder. The boy looked at him. "You should go home, eat something and sleep son."
Shuichi shook his head. "No. I have to be here. She may need me."
The doctor closed his eyes. This was really sad. "Come on. It won't help if you'd end here too. You won't be on her side if-when she'll really need you." Shuichi just looked back to his mother not wanting to leave. "Shuichi, please. I'll call you if her condition will change. "
Shuichi sighed and nodded. He could say the doctor only wanted to help. He stood up with bowed head. "Will you sure call me?"
"Of course. I promise."
The redhead nodded again and left the room with a feeling that he was losing something important. He went out of hospital and stood up in rain for a while. It was already dark… He didn't want to go home. It'd be just too… empty. Instead of that his legs carried him to a nearby park; the rain was masking his tears. It was the park where his mother played with him when he was a child. His mother was only thing in his life. And she was dying… Kurama fell to his knees. The tears where pouring down his face as he hit the ground. Why! Why! Why! He fisted the dirt. What had his mother ever done to deserve this?! Life just wasn't fair. She lay in the hospital and that bastard who caused it all was somewhere unharmed. He felt an emotion filling his heart… A hate… He won't let it so… He'll find him and make him pay… with his life.
The following day he didn't go to school. He couldn't. He stayed with his mother till the same doctor didn't come and make him leave. But like the day before he didn't go home. He went straight to police station. Police officers weren't surprise to saw him there. "Hello Shuichi. Are you looking for Kuro? He's interrogating a 'client' right now but you can wait for him in his office. I'll tell him you're here."
The boy nodded. "Thank you." And he went to the said office. He sat down on the chair at the table and looked around. The office really hasn't change from the last time he was here. Actually the only thing that was different was the mess on officers' desk. He smiled a bit. It seems that someone was in hurry. The only thing that wasn't messed up was a photo of Shuichi and his mother with a boy not too higher from Shuichi. Kuronue. Kuronue was his best friend. He was only few years older than Shuichi and it was him who gave the boy the nickname 'Yoko Kurama'. Every time when Shuichi asked why, he received the same answer.
You just remind me so much of that demon thief. He was too really intelligent, sly and he also loved plants. Every kind of it. But mostly roses – as you do, right? Oh yeah… And I can't forget the unbelievable beauty with which you're blessed. Though there is a difference too… The legends say that Yoko had many lovers… And I'm pretty sure that you're still a virgin, dear Kurama.
Shuichi always blushed to that lovers comment but liked the name. So he accepted it.
"Hey Kurama." A tired voice said.
Shuichi blinked and turned. "Hello Kuronue."
The detective sat down in his chair. He seemed really troubled. "I heard about your mother. How is she doing?"
"She's in coma. They don't know if she'll live yet." The redhead blinked again. More and more tears were forming in his eyes.
"I'm sorry."
"It's not your fault Kuro."
"Maybe… But I should be there. I should protect her, you both from this."
Kurama shook his head. "You couldn't do anything. It's not your fault." It's mine.
Kuronue arched an eyebrow at Shuichi. "Did you sleep? You know you look like shit."
"Thank you." Kurama answered sarcastically.
"You should sleep. You won't help you mother like this." The boy was silent. Kuronue sighed. "So… what can I do for you?"
"I just came to ask if you don't know the car that hit mother." It was Kuronues time to be silent. Kurama frowned at him. "Please Kuro. I need to know."
"I shouldn't-"
"Please."
"Damn you Yoko." Kuronue sighed. "The car is registered on Jaganshi Hiei, but a week ago it was reported as sto- Hey! Where are you going?"
Kuronue stood up as Shuichi began to leave the office. "I know what I need, thank you Kuro." Kurama looked at his friend and then turned back to doors. "But don't worry; you'll see me soon again." He smiled…
"Kurama wait!" Kuronue caught his wrist. "You're not going to do anything stupid, right?"
A mask guarding redheads' feelings was on his face. "Of course not. I'm not doing stupid things anymore." When Kuronue gave him a look he sighed. "I'm going to mother."
"Oh." The detective let go of him. "Okay. I'll go too after the work. I hope she'll get better soon."
"Thank you Kuronue." Shuichi answered and this time he couldn't stop the tears. When Kuronue saw that he pulled the younger one into a hug. "It'll be all right Shuichi. Trust me. Everything will be all right. And that bastard will pay."
The boy didn't try to get away from the embrace as he normally would. He will… Kurama thought. I'll make sure of it. Hiei Jaganshi – you're dead.
