"Sis... sis!" came a worried voice, then a constant shaking.

"Mmm?" Liz woke up in the pitch blackness, it'd all been a dream? That meant Kid was still sick, just what she needed.

"Sis!" yelled Patty, making her nearly jump.

"What? And didn't I tell you to be quiet, Kid needs.""That's just it, I went to go check on him cause I couldn't sleep, and he's tossing and turning.""That's normal with a fever Patty, he's probably just having a nightmare.""But that's not it! When he rolls on his stomach he yelps and makes these weird little cries!"

Liz sat up in bed, on his stomach? Was it getting that bad?

"And he didn't eat the toast we brought him earlier."

Liz sighed and threw off her covers, deciding to check on Kid just so she could tell Patty he was ok. She walked down the hallway, Patty acting like a nervous dog, running ahead and turning her head back, as if Liz didn't already know the way to his room. When she entered she saw Kid, his eyes closed, and he was tossing and turning. She walked up to him and felt his forehead, still feverish."See it's just a night." She was cut off by a sharp yelp, and she turned to look at him, he was now on his stomach, and when he tried to roll off it caused him to yelp with pain. Liz was worried, this could not be good.

"What's wrong with him sis?" asked Patty.

"I don't know." said Liz as she flipped him over. She gently shook Kid and his amber eyes opened. "Look Kid, I need you to tell my where it hurts." Kid shivered, and began shaking so bad that Patty had to hold him down, not good, not good at all. She pulled out the thermometer and stuck it in his mouth, a silent few seconds, then she pulled it out and paled, it hadn't gotten better, it had skyrocketed, "104." she said in a whisper.

"That's really high sis.""I know." she said, then she felt a shaky hand grab her. She looked at Kid, and for the first time in her life he looked as scared as she was.

"My pelvis." he coughed out.

Liz looked confused she tuned to Patty, "Go call Shinigami, now!" she said as her sister ran off. Liz turned to Kid, whose face was twisted in agony. Soon the door crashed open, and Patty along with Shinigami and Stein came in. Stein immediately went to Kid and began examining him, while Liz and Patty told Shinigami everything that had happened. Stein frowned, then turned to Liz."What was his last temperature?""104." she answered.

He sighed, then rubbed his hand through his hair and tightened his bolt, then looked at Patty. "Go call an ambulance.""What an ambulance?" Liz said startled.

"But why?" asked Patty."Don't you think that's a bit extreme?" asked Shinigami.

Stein turned to them, "Look I am a doctor, and I'm pretty sure Kid has appendicitis."

Liz felt her mouth go dry. "Appendicitis?""Yes, it's when the appendix becomes infected and filled with pus, and if it's not taken care of quick enough it could result in death.""Kid could die?" Patty screeched, waking Kid up from his uneasy sleep and making him moan."Go now!" yelled Stein, and Patty raced off.

Liz took Kid's hand, promising it would be ok, Shinigami went and ruffled his son's sweat drenched bangs. Soon Patty ran back upstairs with two paramedics. Stein greeted them.

"I'm pretty sure he has appendicitis."Once they got him on the stretcher one of them took a look at him.

"I think it's ruptured."

Liz and Patty only stared as they took him away, Shinigami smacked both of them with a Shinigami chop. "You two, go with him! Watch over my son!" he yelled. Liz and Patty raced downstairs and jumped in the ambulance with Kid, he looked so horrible.

"You can't leave us." said Liz, tears beginning to drip from her eyes. "You just can't."
