Me: All right! Next chapter has been written. I'm not gonna start off as they did in the shows and do a re-cap of the last chapter, because it's not really needed.*looks at Takeru and sighs* Actually..*turns the mic over to Takeru*

Takeru: Taichi and I were admitted to the hospital with injuries. His was only his leg, while I'm in a near-death situation. I'm on full life support, barely alive, and it seems I've only got two weeks left to live at this rate! Hopefully I'll make it out of here alive.

**************************

"A week has passed since Takeru Takeshi had been committed to the hospital with major injuries and a deteriorating condition. He is on full life support and has such little brainwave activity. It was a miracle his friends got him here before he died." The doctor in charge clicked the stop button and sighed. He placed the tape recorder on the table in front of him as he sat down in an armchair.

About an hour later, the doctor was in Takeru's room, checking the machines around him. "Day Eight of Fourteen; Subject Takeru has lowered heartbeat, stronger brainwave activity and the wounds he had upon entering my care." He removed a bandage from his chest, right forearm and right leg., took a look and replaced them quickly. ".Have re-opened but are not bleeding." Again, he shut off the cassette recorder and placed it in his jacket. As he went to leave, he bumped into Hikari Yamagi.

"Oh! Dr. Yactko! I wasn't looking where I was going." She continued on into the room as Dr. Yactko watched.

Hikari moved the chair from across the room from the bed to beside Takeru. She took her hand in hers and just looked at him. She placed her other hand over his, clasping it gently between them.

Yactko shit the door behind him, letting the pair be alone. He walked down the hall to see three other familiar faces the past week.. Taichi Yamagi, Sora Takenuchi and Yamato Ishida. The latter of the three looked up.

"Dr., has there been any change?" There was slight hope in his tone, covered by his cool exterior.

Yactko nodded. "But not all good ways." He told the teens what he observed.

Yamato sat back down, looking as if someone had hit him in the gut with a steel pipe. "Oh." was all he mumbled out.

Sora and Taichi patted him on both shoulders reassuringly.

"I'm sure he'll be just fine, Yamato! Just.give it a little more time." Sora smiled at him softly.

Hikari placed Takeru's hand against her lips and kissed the back of it softly. "Oh T.K. How can you leave me like this? I need you." She placed her head by his body on the bed.

Takeru looked as peaceful as could be in his sleep. The hand that was not being held by the brunette twitched lightly. The index and middle fingers rose together, slightly.

The door opened and the other three teens walked in silently. Sora put her arms around Hikari's shoulders as the younger girl looked up and smiled.

"You ok, Hikari?" Sora looked into her friends eyes with concern.

Hikari nodded. " 'Course I am. I'm not too worried about Takeru. He'll pull through.." She looked over to her love and thought 'he has to.'

Taichi came over and placed a hand on Sora's shoulder. "I know how you feel right now, sis. I wouldn't know what to do if Sora was in Takeru's position."

Hikari nodded meekly as he held the tears back. "Thank you." She spoke softly as to cover her wavering voice.

The group left shortly after, leaving Takeru alone. The machines continued to beep, but the heart rate monitor stopped sportatic beeping and went to a normal, steady beat. The blonde groaned and rolled slightly, then stopped. His heart rate dropped dramatically, and his breathing slowed to an almost stop.

Three doctors including Yactko rushed to the room. The latter spoke quickly. "We're losing him. We need to stabilize him immediately!" They removed him from the room and wheeled him towards the Operating Room. While doing so, they passed by the group that was in the room earlier.

Hikari tried to run after them, but Yamato caught her. The brunette and started to cry softly into his chest as he rubbed and patted her on the back reassuringly, all the while keeping himself from tearing after them too.
