I know what you're thinking YAY! The second to last part of Yamato's Last Hope! You'll see what Yamato's last hope' is in this part. Yamashiro, but not much in this one. Look for Ya Yoi No Sora Wa(the epilogue) on X-mas. Ya Yoi No Sora Wa - Clouds Of Glory Fill The Sky. Not sure if that's how you separate it. I'll explain why in the epilogue. On with the show!

Waking up happens, yet never when it's supposed to.
Operation
Yamato was amazed at the speed he was running through the halls. How coordinated the doctors were at sticking the needles in even at top running speed. He could already feel himself begin to weaken as the anisthetics poured into his veins.
As they rounded the corner, Yamato nearly fell off the cot.
As his vision blurred, he could see Tenchi and Jyou? Was that Jyou? Yes Jyou was a surgeon at this hospital, he had forgotten Jyou was yelling like he was leading an army.
"Mishiu, you have the blood? Hook it up, stat! This is one of my best friends here, we are going to do this clean and right, got it, good!"
Yamato laughed. "Ease up Kido, I'll be fine."
Jyou flashed him a sardonic smile and then proceeded barking out the directions again.
Yamato started feeling a little woozy. His eyelids drooped.
"See you soon, Ishida," Jyou said, and slowly, Yamato's world turned black.
~*~*~
They were an hour into the operation.
"Kido! Kido, I see it!" a young man said, pointing to Yamato's lung.
"Whoa."
The tumor was almost as big as his hand. It was a saffron yellow color, round, and attatched to his lung. It looked slightly weakened; the chemo must have been doing it's job... until it slowed on working.
"Okay everyone, we came here for what we're gonna do. We're gonna get this fucking tumor out now, and it WILL leave Yamato forever, not a cell left. If there are, we'll use chemo to kill those too. This is Yamato's last hope if he is to go home forChristmas! His little brother is begging us to finish it off! it's Christmas Eve, and we are gonna take this fucking thing out! Now hand me the damn scalpel."
The other doctors clapped, and Tenchi said, "You go girl!"
Jyou flushed and they went back to work.
Suddenly, Yamato's heart sped up slightly.
~*~*~
What's happening? Am I awake? Are they done? is the cancer still inside me?
Yamato tried to open his eyes. They ceased to open.
Oh Dear God... I'm awake! Oh no, i've only seen this stuff on TV! This can't happen to me!
"Oh dear Lord! Get the anesthesiologist! He's awake and we're not finished!"
"Kido to anesthesiology! Get down here, he's awake! I repeat, the patient is awake and you need to get down here stat!"
About five minutes later, Yamato heard the door open. It must have been the anesthesiologist, because the surgeons began jabbering away in 'doctor talk.' Slowly, Yamato began to recover from his terrifying experience, and he began to lose consciousness...
~*~*~
Yamto slowly opened his eyes.
He was in a sweet-smelling room, painted baby blue. All of his friends were in his little cubicle, Koushiro and Takeru by his bedside.
"Hi, Yamato. You're in the recovery room," Koushiro said.
"You'll be out this afternoon. You know what that means," Taichi hinted.
Yamato tried to speak. "I'm... I can go home for... for Christmas?"
"Yeah!" Takeru cried happily.
As Yamato's vision leared, he saw everyone had tears in their eyes. Not tears of sorrow as had been shed a month ago, but tears of sweet joy and happiness.
Yamato reached out for Takeru's hand. He took it and squeezed it tightly.
When they let go, Yamato looked at Jyou. He had just remembered something.
"I was awake at some point in the operation," Yamato said slowly.
Jyou sighed. "Indeed you did. But don't worry, it didn't affect us. That happens sometimes. Not too often though."
A doctor came into the cubicle. He motioned Jyou to step outside. They heard him hiss "YES!"
Jyou stepped back in, smilimg broadly.
"Congratulations, Yamato... you're cured."
"Yeah!" Yamato strained his voice.
As couples pulled closer, Taichi and Sora smiled and shut the curtain.
THE END
I think I liked the ending. Tee hee! :::starts singing the "Love Is In The Air" song::: So what'd you think? And remember, Ya Yoi No Sora Wa comes out tomorrow! Yamato's Last Hope was the surgery, in case you didn't figure that out during Jyou's little speech. It's amazing how bad people cuss when times are drastic ^__^.
Don't forget to review!
Lot's of love and Christmas Cheer,
