A/N Please review! I tried to make it longer and hopefully there isn't too many grammatical mistakes. Enjoy.

Satsuki's POV

I went to the hospital again the next day. Ryuko wasn't there, the doctors are freaking out. There was a little puddle of blood near the window. She escaped, I don't understand why. She's a real hard head. I hate her for doing this.

"We assume that she left during the late night since no one would be checking on her," A doctor replied to me.

"I pay this hospital, I expected you to watch out for her!"

I did a quick turn of my heels and walked out. I need to tell the group now, this is unbelievable. Quickly going to my helicopter, sitting down I was served tea by Soroi.

"Thank you Soroi, will you tell the elite and Mako to meet me at the mansion,"

"Right away, Satsuki-sama"

Her eyebrows furrowed and took a deep sigh. What am I going to do? This is impossible, knowing her it will be a hard time finding her. Stupid stubborn sister. She couldn't have gone far if she's sick. We need to find her as soon as possible, I have a feeling it's something to do with the life fibers. But, I need her to confirm it with me. We don't know much about them but maybe her body is starting to deny the life fibers making her weaker and weaker.

We arrived at the mansion and I sat down at the round table waiting for my accomplices to come. I waited and finally one by one they came and by the next hour everyone was here.

"Everyone, Ryuko has left the hospital and has been gravely ill, she needs to be found"

"Satsuki-sama who cares about that twerp, always causing problems," Nonon replied

"Nonon, don't be so rude, Satsuki-sama just said she was missing and ill! She saved our lives just a while ago!" Gamagori said to Nonon

"Ryuko-chan was supposed to be sleeping, I saw! I had to leave to take a shower but then I fell asleep. Ugh, it was my fault" Mako said while imitating Ryuko sleeping and her showering.

The mood darkened, I wondered what they are thinking about. Ryuko wasn't supposed to go everyone knew it. She had the fibers that would made her almost impossible to die.

"We will search in groups, East will be Mako and Gamagori, South will be Nonon and Inumuta, West will be Sanageyama and I myself will be going to the North district"

"Satsuki-sama it's not safe to go on your own!" Gamagori replied

"Don't worry, I will be fine, we aren't battling anything"

"I will be finding the calculations of likely the area she's in" Inumuta stated.

The search has started. Ryuko needed to be found as soon as possible. North is where Ryuko's apartment is, best to search there first. I highly doubt she's there and took what she needed already. No doubt she cannot outrun me in her state if I do find her there. This is serious.

Ryuko POV

No one needed to know what the hell I was doing or what was wrong. I decided it was best if I pretended to be asleep and hopefully Mako would leave after she saw this. She did and my escape plan started. I am only on the second floor no problem at all to jump off.

Getting up, I ripped the IV'S and the wires around off of me. Gotta act fast or someone will hear the monitor go beep. "Now, where the hell are my clothes", I spotted them on the chair to the far left and quickly put everything on. When I turned to walk to the window, I started to cough up blood.

"Fuck this shit"

Some blood spilled to the ground but I didn't have time to do anything about it. Jumping out the window I did a tumble roll landing. Outside was the garden area which made everything easier and more cushioned of my falling. Now, I needed to get my duffel bag and clothes from my apartment. The apartment sorta close to the hospital so walking there was no biggy.

Arriving at the apartment, I plopped down onto the couch. Sigh, out of breath. I'm already feeling another fever come back. I need to act fast, grabbing her duffel in her room's closet, she threw it onto the bed. Brought basic shirts, underwear, Jeans and her toothbrush and shoved it into her duffel bag.

"Can't forget money," between my bed I had placed money in case of emergencies. No one would suspect me hiding money there. I had only about 12,000 yen saved (1). That will be enough for food, and I can find sleep easily at the park. Now, I don't think it's best to bring my phone. They will probably track me with it on. So I turned it off. Knowing Satsuki she has a bunch of technology at her disposal, rolling my eyes in distaste.

I took some medicine to hope that it will bring down the fever I was starting to get. "Let's get a move on," I thought to myself. It was at least 5 am now and I doubt Satsuki and Mako will be there any earlier than the evening.

I walked into the park nearby, thinking about where is the best place to hide. Hm, Ah! I got it, I can go to the underground at my dad's house! I grin at how smart I am. I'll show you nee-san. Ugh, I'm starting to feel dizzy, let's go.

The Matoi residence was a bit far away and didn't want to wait for the bus. Too bad my bike was in the shop as of a few days ago. "I always have the worst luck." Thankfully it was still in the north district just way further down. I kept walking for a mile till I need to take a break, 6:30 am checking my watch. I want some food so I went to McDonalds and got breakfast. I ate while kept walking on and felt like shit.

Arriving, I opened the secret passage door and fell down. Ah, nostalgia, I miss Senketsu. There was heaps of clothes on the ground and would be a good bed. Plus restrooms at a park which should be around somewhere. This is great!

"A-ah, crap,"

Another dizzy spell started and I felt woozy. I started coughing up blood again becoming weak, fell to the ground face first. I passed out, now I fear for my life. I can't do anything about it. If I die here at least it will be where I first found Senketsu and where my father died.

(1) 12,000 yen is a little over a hundred dollars.
