Part Eight -A-
Where? Where's Koushiro? Where could he be? I looked ALL over that store
and couldn't find him anywhere. I left Matt and TK to look other parts of the
store and leave them with the bras. I don't feel comfortable with that kinda
thing. So, I went and searched through the boy's clothes, the girl's clothes
and I even asked the guy that played the piano in the middle of the store if
he'd seen a little brunette kid with a computer about. He hadn't.
I ran all over that store, "Koushiro? Where are you?"
"Yamato? Is that you?" A voice asked. I whirled around smacking my face
right into… a man's crotch. "Whoa… slow down there!"
"Who are you?" I asked. I had no idea who this guy was! He looked like
Taichi, but had darker skin. His hair was the same though.
"When did you get so small?" The Mystery Man asked, kneeling to be my
height.
"I've always been like this! And I'm tall for my age!" I didn't like this guy.
He…rubbed me the wrong way.
"I know, but now you're tiny."
"Hey! Daisuke!" Takeru…um…TK yelled, coming over to us.
"You KNOW this guy?" I asked, trying to pull away from the weird guy. He'd
put his hands on my shoulders, looking more closely at me, like I was a toy
or something. I'd expected him to ask something like, 'where's the batteries?'
"Yeah, he's only my best friend!" TK said, coming over and pulling me away
from the weirdo now known as "Daisuke".
I raised one eyebrow in a sarcastic gesture. "Have you seen Matt?" I asked,
trying to walk slowly away from the guys who had just started to box.
"No, I saw you guys and I decided to ask you the same thing." TK said,
dodging a really good left hook from Daisuke.
"I thought that the little guy was Yamato." Daisuke said, jumping back.
"He IS. He's just from the past."
"Ok…this is weird…" I said, slowly backing away. I went back to the part of
the store that I hadn't gone through. The bra place. I hadn't seen Koushiro
or Matt, and I'd searched everywhere else. This was the last place they
could be.
I tried to make my foot move, but I was met with much resistance. I could
do it. I could just walk in there and walk out?
Until…I saw the computer. Koushiro's computer. Smashed to bits. No. It
couldn't be… Koushiro's computer. It had to be someone else's… Koushiro
NEVER goes anywhere without his computer. And without it… I couldn't go
home.
"Koushiro!" I yelled, running straight to the computer. Right next to it was a
baseball bat. It had blood on it. And… some brown hairs. "Oh, God."
"Mini-Me? Is that you?" Matt called. I couldn't tell where he was, so I just
searched around, disregarding the various pieces of silk dangling in front
of my eyes.
"Yeah." I said, finding him. He was crying. I looked down… and there was
Koushiro. It looked like half his head was gone. "Is…is he alive?" I
whispered, scared. I was kinda amazed. Here we were, in a very
populated store, with cameras all around, and no one could see this?
"Barely. I'm afraid to move him. I just got the bleeding to stop." Matt said,
"He can talk though. And that means that he can hear. Talk to him."
"Yamato's there, isn't he?" Koushiro asked, trying to open his right eye. That
was the one that was opposite the side he got hit on.
"Yeah, how about he talks to you? You guys can talk about rescuing Tai."
"OK, but I have something that I need to tell him." Koushiro whispered. I sat
down next to him, and held his hand.
"I have one thing to tell you too. Your computer… it was smashed. We have
no way to get back."
"That's OK. Just take this…" he said, trying to get into his shirt pocket. I
reached in there and found a disk. "That'll help you. It will walk you through,
step by step." He tried to smile.
"Thank you." I said, blinking back tears. His grip on my hand loosened. Here
was one of my best friends… dying. "Koushiro…"
"Yamato?" He asked, trying to tighten his gloved hand around mine.
"Yeah? I'm here for you." I said, there was nothing else I could think of
saying. He was slowly leaving me… it was amazing that he'd lasted this
long. He was a lot tougher than I ever gave him credit for. Too bad I'd never
get to tell him.
"It…it was never Sora."
"What do you mean?"
"What Taichi told you… it wasn't Sora…"
Did he mean his crush? How could he think of something so insignificant right
now?
"It…it was always you." He whispered, almost quiet enough for me not to
hear. "I've always been in love with you…"
"Oh…god… Koushiro!" I screamed, putting my arms around him. "Don't die on
me!"
And just like that, he was gone. I leaned down and kissed his forehead and
closed his one open eye gently.
I started screaming… and I didn't stop until everything went mercifully black.
AN-Sheesh...*sniff sniff* It had to be THESE parts that I post on my b-day!!!
The SADDEST ones of all!!!!!!!! I didn't mean to kill Kou-kun...I love him!!!
And, a correction from my sis, she said that the little piano dude aint in
Younkers, he's in Van Maur...or however you spell it. I personally don't
care... Anyway... WAHH!!! I LOVE MY KOU-KUN!!!!
