Antauri: Attention readers, Destiny will be busy for a few weeks and may not be able to write. She would also like to say that a sequel to Game War may happen, Curse of the Fan Girl may be saved thanks to a reviewer as well as have three other sequels, Forgotten and Guardian Hearts may possibly be posted soon because the chapters are almost completed, and In The Dark has only one chapter possible to be worked on because of missing plans.
Chiro: Destiny doesn't own us.
His vision was blurry when he finally opened his eyes again. His head felt like he was several feet underwater and he couldn't tell what was going on. Six blurs were over him; they were red, yellow, green, pink, blue, and black.
The last thing he heard were garbled shouts of 'Chiro' before blackness surrounded him once again.
It felt like an eternity before his eyes opened again.
Chiro looked around the room feeling confused and numb. He tried moving his head, but his body was stiff. "Huh," he said quietly. The word scratched his throat and he coughed.
Chiro then sat up and looked around, only to feel another dizzy spell and fall back. He half-heartedly chuckled. "Not my best idea."
As he went to hold his head, the door to the Sick Bay slid open. Gibson hobbled inside with Antauri floating next to him. Whatever they were talking about fell silent when they saw him awake. Gibson began to look at the computers while Antauri floated over to his leader's side.
"Chiro," he asked, his voice a little unsure
"Antauri," Chiro asked, "What's going on?"
Just as a smile spread across Antauri's face, Gibson's typing stopped. Chiro tilted his head to see he was smiling to.
"It's good to have you back," was his only comment before he left the room.
Chiro turned back to Antauri and asked once again, "What's going on? What happened?"
Antauri looked like he was about to cry. "Chiro," he said, keeping his composure, "You were fighting Skeleton King. You fainted after one of your attacks and Skeleton King has gone missing. You've been drifting between consciousness and unconsciousness for nearly two weeks."
Chiro's eyes widened. "Two weeks," he exclaimed weakly, "How— where is everyone?"
"You were awake," Antauri explained, "But not fully enough to register anything and not too long."
Chiro nodded.
"As for the others—"
"CHIRO!"
The Monkey Team and Jinmay burst through the door, but didn't tackle him (luckily). They did hug him, though.
"Chiro," Jinmay said after she gave him a peck on the cheek, "We missed you."
"Yeah kid, you were like a zombie," Sprx commented.
Chiro couldn't help but chuckle. "Sorry…"
Nova didn't smack Sprx, yet, and turned to face Chiro. "How are you feeling?"
Chiro shrugged. "Fine, I guess. I'm still waking up and I feel really stiff, so, yeah."
Gibson nodded. "Understandable, you haven't moved in two weeks."
"So, how are you guys," Chiro asked.
They all gave a weak smile.
"Chiro," Antauri said, "There was a funeral held a two days after your fight with Skeleton King. We've lost so many in the war. The citizens have all helped make a memorial for them."
Chiro nodded sadly before asking, "Can I- Can I go and pay my respects?"
The others turned to Gibson, who sighed. "I suppose… Once you fully recover; like getting used to sitting up and walking."
Chiro pumped his fist into the air, causing the others to chuckle.
They then turned to leave, Antauri ushering them all out before saying, "We'll be right back with lunch."
Once they were out, Nova turned to Antauri and whispered, "When are we going to ask him?"
Antauri shook his head. "When he is ready, we will ask; not yet."
Please Review, if I can at least 3, I'll post the next chapter when it's done.
