Hospitals may be clean and stile but did they really have to have the god awful smell? How could nurses possibly stand to smell that every single day? No matter how clean it was, it always stunk of death and disease.

Wait… a hospital?

Ara jolted roughly from her bed. Too quickly to give her a pulsing headache that pulled her back on to the pillow, squeezing her eyes shut.

A bloody hospital? No way. It couldn't have been that serious… right?

Thinking back, she couldn't remember much just Yuko giving her a manicure on orange cats and… That was it!

She glanced down at her finger tips at the glowing orange cats.

She remembered everything from that day. The reason she had that odd dream. She saw what happened. Kyo turned into a cat.

How is that possible?! And how did they make her forget?

Before she could grasp anymore, the door of her room began to open.

Hurriedly, she clenched her eyes closed and evened out her breathing. This wasn't a good time for her.

The door creaked a little more and the sound of feet scuffled to the bedside as a cold hand touched in the inside of her wrists carefully and moved to feel her head with the other hand. A small 'hmm' and the scratch of a pencil then the feet moved again to the opposite side to check the machinery when a quick knock and sound of two people entered the room.

"Hatori, do you know what happened yet?"

Yuki. His voice could be recognized a mile away even as he whispered.

"I'm afraid I don't. This has never happened before."

The voice beside her answered, being Hatori.

The third visitor was silent while they discussed and Ara couldn't shake the feeling of them staring at her.

"Will you make her forget again?"

He asked, this voice being recognized as Kyo.

"I don't think I can. I need to explore as to how she regained her memories first. Until then, it may be dangerous to her health to do any more."

There was a pause and Hatori seemed to have cleared his throat.

"I'll have to inform Akito about this. I'm sor--"

"Don't say you're sorry!"

Kyo snapped, making Ara use every muscle in her body not jump and give her act away.

"You need to find out what you did wrong and fix it! Don't bring him into this until you've tried everything else first. Don't make her go through with all that when there are other options."

"Kyo,"

Yuki's voice cut in, being gentle and stern at the same time although Ara didn't even pay attention to his words while Kyo's were still sinking in.

"Hatori is trying don't take it out on him."

"Shut up, you stupid rat! I'm outta here."

Stomps and a slammed door was all he left in his wake as Hatori and Yuki were silent.

A few more scuffles as they seemed to be moving away. Hatori spoke more softly.

"She is fine and will be awake soon. Until then, we need to figure things out at home. Her family should be making it here soon."

"Who did you call?"

Papers moved.

"Her Aunt. It's the only living relative here."

Ara bit her tongue hard wishing she could cover her ears.

"Where are her parents?"

"Deceased. Both of them, unfortunately. All her other family is out of the country. Her Aunt is all that is here."

There was a pause and she feared they had seen her now clenched hands but it was Yuki who spoke.

"I'll call Yuko. She's her friend. I think she would be the best person to call when Ara wakes up."

"Are you sure?"

"Yes. I don't think I've ever heard her mention her aunt and Yuko knows her better than anyone."

"Okay."

The creak of the door and they were gone and Ara smiled as two rogue tears pooled and fell over her cheeks. She never knew how thankful she could be for Yuki saying that. It seemed like he really did pay attention as much he pretended he didn't. She owed him deeply.

Wiping her tears away, she turned to rest but gave one last chuckle before she slept.

Yuki will get a kick out of Prince Yuki calling her.

She could hear the cheering already.
