Hello everyone! Finally an update for this story! My skills are still kinda rusty though….
Here's the next chapter, please read, enjoy, and review! Thank you everyone who reviewed the last chapter!


"Isane-san, do you have any idea where she might be?" Toshiro spoke up.

Isane shook her head, "I don't know. She changes where she goes everyday so it'll be harder to find her."

"Are you asking about Momo-chan again, Isane?" asked a woman coming down the hall wearing a white doctor's coat and a stethoscope around her neck. She had piercing golden eyes; her chestnut brown hair was pulled back into a long ponytail, and appeared to be around Isane's age.

"Ikeda-sensei, do you have any idea where Momo-san is?"

She looked thoughtfully out one of the nearby windows, "It's Friday, do you think she might be in Asagiri no Mori? The haunted forest?"

"Eh? What makes you think that?" Rangiku asked a bit surprised.

"She mentioned once, that there was something important in that forest." Ikeda sensei said in a quiet voice.

"I'll go look for her." Toshiro spoke up. Everyone looked at the new doctor a bit stunned by his words, "Are you sure? We can just send out one of the other nurses."

"It's ok, I don't start officially working until tomorrow. My work here for today is done." he replied.

Toshiro turned and gave Ichimaru sensei a short bow of respect before turning to leave, "Ichimaru-sensei, thank you for showing me around today."

"A dab of yellow there and some green there. It's finished!" Momo exclaimed cheerfully gazing happily at the picture in her sketchbook.

She closed her eyes, and took a deep breath; hopefully this would be the last time she would be in this place of sorrowful memories. She was going to leave this place once and for all, that is if no one from the hospital finds her.

Momo turned to the tree growing behind the stump, and placed a hand upon the bark feeling the engravings on it, "Okaa-san, Koma-san, I'm leaving today. You don't have to worry, I can take care of myself. I definitely won't let this disease control what I want to do."

Momo bent over to pick up the small messenger bag filled with a few changes of clothes, money, and other things she felt was important towards her escapee.

Just as she took a step away from the tree, a voice called out to her, "Hinamori, Momo, I presume?"

Momo felt a chill go up her spine, 'Gah! They found me already?! I knew I shouldn't have lingered to talk to Okaa-san and Koma-san!' she silently thought.

'However, I don't think I've heard this voice before. It doesn't sound like any of the staff, but he sounds so s-…gah! Hinamori, Momo what are you thinking? You're suppose to be escaping!' Momo mentally bonked herself on the head.

She turned around to see a handsome man, who looked a few years older than her with white hair, beautiful green eyes, and in a designer brand suit. He looked out of breath from running.

'Who is that? Is it a new staff member?' she wondered, 'Anyways…need to get away.'

Momo looked confused and said, "Ano, I think you're mistaken sir. I'm not the person you're looking for."

He looked at her strangely without saying a word. Momo growing uncomfortable under the stare said, "I hope you find your Hinamori-san soon, please excuse me I must get home, it's getting late. My family will be worried. Good bye sir."

She quickly darted down the path out of the forest before he could say anymore. Once out of the forest Momo quickly boarded the train at the nearest station.

'That was so close!' she tiredly thought.


Toshiro and Momo finally meet up, but will this be the end? xD
Please review and thank you for read!
