Chapter 8: Rescue
Takumi saw Misaki fall and felt his heart stop.
When he was unable to instantly save her from the cliff, he didn't hesitate and heroically jumped from the cliff to Misaki.
He saw Misaki go into the water and he couldn't help but feel agitated that he was unable to fall any faster.
When he hit the icy water, he grew concerned for Misaki who only had a light jacket on with her blouse and skirt. He began to sink as well and started swimming and looking for Misaki.
Only half a second had passed, yet to Takumi, it felt like hours. He swam deeper and deeper, looking for her.
After another minute, his fear grew to panic. "Where is she!" he frantically thought. He couldn't possibly live without her.
Finally, he caught a glimpse of a peach colored object. He swam towards it with all his might.
It was Misaki.
He grabbed her and brought her to the surface. Keeping her head above the water, he swam towards the beach.
When he reached the sand, he realized how cold she was. Her jacket had apparently fallen off and she lay in his arms in only a blouse and skirt. He held her closer.
"Wake up Misaki! Please, wake up!" Takumi begged of her as he gave her CPR.
Another couple on the beach had seen Takumi and Misaki exit the water fully clothed and had begun hurrying over to them.
"Please, can I borrow a phone?" Takumi asked the couple when they finally reached Takumi and MIsaki.
The concerned girl gladly gave Takumi her cellphone as the guy took off his jacket to cover Misaki who was drenched and unconscious. Takumi obviously didn't like having Misaki in other men's clothes, but right then, it was her health that mattered the most.
Takumi hurriedly dialed up Tora Igarashi.
"Tora, its Takumi. I need a favor. I need you to send an ambulance to the gps location of this cellphone. It's an emergency"
"You need my help?" an amused Tora asked.
"I'm not joking around Tora! Send an ambulance now!" Takumi growled.
In normal situations Tora would have had some more fun with Usui before fulfilling his request, but hearing the panic in Takumi's voice, Tora simply agreed.
Tora then made arrangements for a helicopter ambulance to go to Takumi's location.
"Please be okay" Takumi whispered as he held Misaki tight. He had given her CPR, had warmed her up, and everything else he could do.
Though Takumi was a doctor, he felt useless because he was unable to help Misaki.
A few minutes later, a helicopter descended near them.
The concerned couple was clearly shocked that a helicopter had come to pick them up and wondered who exactly Takumi and Misaki were. Takumi just profusely thanked them and headed towards the helicopter with Misaki.
There was a doctor waiting in there, but Takumi took control as he lay Misaki down. He checked her vitals and had her warmed up with multiple blankets. He then preformed multiple test to make sure that she was okay.
After a few tests, it was determined that Misaki had only a slight concussion would be fine soon with some rest. Takumi, however, could not stop worrying and stayed by her side.
When they finally reached the hospital, Takumi had the best room set up for Misaki even though he knew that she would be outraged at the costs.
