"See you tomorrow Sanada," Yukimura said leaving the train station.

"Ok, bye Yukimura," Sanada said as they each went their own way home.

They had been practicing. All the other regulars were dismissed. The sunset had told the two to hurry home. They had got on a train and headed home. Yukimura was thinking about telling Sanada how he really felt. 'Maybe tomorrow' he thought.

Tomorrow came. The morning was here, but no sun. The sky was dark and stormy. Even though the thunder roared, the tennis team still meet. Yukimura had decided that this morning he was going to tell Sanada how he felt, only Sanada didn't show up.

"Maybe he guessed practice was cancelled because of the storm," Niou said.

He wanted it to be cancelled. All of a sudden, the thunder roared and it felt like the ground was shaking. Lightning shot across the sky and rain and hail feel hard on the team. They all rushed inside, drenched.

"Sanada, he is the one who made us practice during a tornado warning. Do you really think he would not come because of a storm?" Akaya said.

He wasn't very happy about coming to practice at 5 in the morning, dealing with Niou, running laps, or getting drenched.

"Well...... just shut up brat!" he said running out of excuses.

Niou couldn't even come up for a reason why Sanada was not here.

"There you guys are. I was hopeing you would come, not in this storm, but I need to talk to you," a soft, feminine voice said.

Niou and Akaya yelled at the top of their lungs. No one was supposed to be at the school except the team. The team had turned to see a woman who looked in her late 30s early 40s. Her hair had not been combed. Her make up was running. It was clear she had been crying. Her pink skirt with flowers and her hot pink blouse were wrinkeled. Everyone stared at the woman wondering who she was, except Yukimura.

"What are you doing here?" Yukimura asked the woman.

"Wait! You know here?!" Niou and Akaya asked, more half screamed.

"Yes, she is Sanada's mom," he said worried.

"Well, there was an accident," she said and her eyes became full of tears.

All of the teams eyes were wide, but Yukimura's had tears. He knew something terrible had happen. He knew Sanada wanted to keep his home life and school life separate. Something really bad had to have happen for her to come up to the school in search for the team.

Sanada's mom began to tell what happen while tears rolled down her cheeks.

"On Genichirou's way home, there was a drunk driver. He feel asleep at the wheel. When he woke up he saw children walking in the street and swirved. And hit Genichirou," she said trembling.

She let the team digest the news before continuing. For the first time ever, the entire team realized how much Sanada really meant to them. He was not only their teamate, but their friend. Even Niou was shocked at how much he cared.

"H-How is he?" Yukimura asked.

He regretted asking when he saw her face go white. Her eyes were wide open. You could clearly see her dark blue eyes. Her mouth was open to answer but couldn't find the words. She swallowed.

"He-He is," taking another deep breathe," in a coma!" she screamed and hit the floor.

All the teams eyes were wide. They watched as she cried on the floor. Yukimura wiped his tears and helped her up. He looked at the team. They were all in a shock. He thought one of them was about to have a panic attack.

"Thank you for coming. Team, we are going on a field trip," he said trying to stay strong for the team.

In his mind though, he was yelling, screaming, and crying. Yukimura called a bus to take them to the hospital. The trip was silent. No one talked. No one joked. They just stared. Still unable to believe what had happen. Yukimura was in the first seat on the left. He sat alone. The first seat on the right was empty. One seat behind Yukimura was Marui and Akaya. Across from them was Yagyuu and Niou. The seat behind Marui and Akaya is Jackal. Across from him is Yanagi. Sanada's mother went in her car.

They arrived at the hospital. Yukimura hoped Sanada would be awake. Even though it was highly unlikely, he wished anyway. The made their way in, following Sanada's mother. Her eyes stayed on the ground. It was clear she hated being here. They arrived at a big clean room. In the middle was an unconscious Sanada. Sanada's mother went beside Sanada, talking to his father. The team made their way to the bed. All they could do was stare in shock.

Sanada was pale. He had scratches and bandages. The part of his skin that was neither pale nor wrapped in bandages was purpleish-blue(bruises). The doctor came in. She was wearing her her white coat and was carrying some papers.

"Hello, I am Kasumi. I am guessing your his parents and his tennis team," she said.

She had a kind smile. Yukimura noticed something in her eyes. Something uneasy about her. As if she had bad news.

"How did you know we were his tennis team?" Yukimura asked.

Something about her worried him. He couldn't put his finger on it though.

"Well, he came into the hospital in his uniform and his tennis bag was brought along. You guys are wearing the same uniform and have tennis bags," she said with a soft smile," Please excuse us. I need to talk to his parents."

The team tried to listen through the door but all they heard was a scream followed by crying. Yukimura could hear her scream even though he wasn't against the door. Yanagi and Yagyuu are also sitting. The rest of the team move away from the door because they heard foot steps. Dr. Kasumi steps out. Her eyes are filled with sorrow as she leaves.

"How is fukubuchou-I mean Sanada?" Akaya asked.

He wasn't sure if he was supposed to call Sanada Sanada or fukubuchou.

"Um, well. I don't think I should be the one to tell you. Telling his parents was hard enough. Please excuse me. I need to get back to work. We have a lot of prepping to do-" she realized what she said.

"Prepping?!" Yukimura said, "For what?"

He knew the answer but really wished she would say something different.

"I think you know. Surgery," she said half-hearted.
