Hikaru has been sadder lately. I think it's because of her death. Her death date is right around the corner. I feel bad for him because it is partially my fault. So, I know I have to do something about it. I found this weird thing in the science lab. It looks like a time machine, so I should go take a look at it.

I go into the science lab and take a closer look at the time machine. After a quick examine I step in it and press the date I want to go to. The day Haruhi died. A quiet whizzing noise was heard, and I opened the doors. I looked outside and saw where I was. Our house. I look at the time and run to where Haruhi said she was going. I see her about to cross the street, but a car was racing towards her and it wouldn't stop. She was too far away for me to call out to her, so I did all I could think of: I stopped the car. I ran in front of her and the car hit me instead of her. She looked at me with a look of shock as I landed a few feet away in a pool of blood. I laughed mentally thinking, I hope Hikaru will be happy. That's all I ever want from him. Is that he is . . . happy. I try to move, but my limbs feel like steel. I am barely able to keep my eyes open, and somehow move to look at Haruhi. She's crying really hard. I try to talk but my mouth is very dry, and it hurts to swallow. I am vaguely aware that I was put into a hospital stretcher and hooked up to an IV. All I notice is Haruhi staring at me with large eyes and tears streaming down her face. I try once again to talk and am able to make out a faint whisper, "Tell Hikaru I love him." I see her nod, somehow hearing what I said over all the panicking doctors. The last thing I hear before losing consciousness is a doctor, or at least I think it's a doctor, shout, "We're losing him!" Before it all goes dark.

The next thing I know, I'm staring at my own body. I look down at my hands and see that they are slightly transparent. Realizing I was a ghost, I grinned. This was going to be so much fun! Wait until Hikaru hears about this. I stopped my train of thought when I realized how I became a ghost. I looked back at my body lying in a hospital bed, and then at the doctors and paramedics by it. I didn't notice before, but my parents, Hikaru, Haruhi, Honey-Senpai, Mori-Senpai, Tamaki-Senpai, and even Kyoya-Senpai were there too. I see the paramedics look at my parents and Hikaru and shake their heads sadly. Hikaru starts crying and rushes towards my body and hugged it one last time before the doctors push him away, as he starts screaming, "No!" over and over. I felt myself start to cry as well, and then tried to hug Hikaru. I just phased through him. I went into a nearby corner and sat, rocking myself back and forth. I followed Hikaru and our family back home until I passes out, hoping to be back in my time. Hopefully Hikaru is happy there. Hopefully, he got over my death. Hopefully, he will finally be with Haruhi.
