Father and Son part 5
Joe held the paddles in his hands, Sora was having a heart attack, she was quickly slipping away. Joe simply stared. Suddenly he held up the paddles and pressed them, shocking nothing but air. He repeated this action, as he watched his former friend die. She stared at him in shock, gasping and trying to speak. He pressed the paddles a final time, again shocking the air. Two minutes later, Sora was dead. Joe calmly wrote down the time of death, and organised a nurse to deal with the body.

"Yama, please calm down. I don't want you to get worked up again". Tai said as he held his sobbing lover. "She..was.going to.take him.abroad". He sobbed. Tai rubbed Yamato's back. Ken entered the room. "You can see Tanoshii now". He muttered, seeing Yamato's tears.
"Thanks Ken. Did you hear that Yama? We can go and see Tan". Tai said. Yamato nodded and wiped his eyes. "Thanks.Ken." He stuttered.
"Hey, no problem". Ken replied with a smile. He started to lead Tai and Yamato up to the recovery room. "So how's Davis"? Tai asked.
"He's great, his noodle business it doing really well, he reckons it won't be long before there's a Noodle Guy in every city". Ken laughed.
"That's good". Tai replied.
"Yeah, but there's something even better, well depending on who's point of view you look at it from". Ken said as he opened the elevator doors.
"Oh yeah"? Yamato asked.
"Well, Davis and I have a daughter, three years old". Ken said with a proud smile on his face.
"Hey congratulations"! Tai replied shaking Ken's hand.
"She's Jun's daughter, unfortunately Jun lost her battle with Leukemia". Ken said sadly.
"Oh.I'm so sorry". Tai let go of Ken's hand.
"She wanted Keiko to grow up in a loving household and she saw none better than with me and Davis". The elevator stopped and the three men walked out. Ken opened a door and inside, was Tanoshii on a bed. "Tan"! Yamato said as he ran to his son. Tai followed, Ken picked up the chart.
"Ok, he's got a broken leg , the contusions on his head are just superficial , the CT scan was clear. There was internal bleeding but we managed to stop it". Ken ticked something on the chart. "Thanks Ken". Yamato smiled as he stroked his son's hair.
"No problem Yama. He should wake up in about an hour or so. Right then, my work here is done, I'll drop by a little later with some food for you guys, right now I got a lovely little butt boil to deal with. Aaah..butt boils, that's what I went to med school for"! Ken joked as he left the room. Tai smiled as he took a seat beside Yamato. "He's gonna be ok Yama". He said happily.
"I know". Yamato smiled back. He leant against his lover.
"He looks peaceful". Tai said. He looked down as he received no conformation or reply, Yamato was leant against him, sleeping soundly. "And so do you my love". Tai smiled as he picked Yamato up and gently put him in the empty bed to Tanoshii.

"God damn butt boil". Ken said as he entered the lounge. "It's always the same, pus, pus and more pus". He complained with a smile.
"Do you mind"? Hikemi asked as she looked up from her sandwich.
"Oh sorry". Ken apoligised.
"Y'know for some reason I'm not up to this". She grinned.
"All the more for me then"! Ken replied as he slid the sandwich across the table and started to finish it off. "Disgusting"! Hikemi remarked as she turned back to the magazine she had been reading. Joe entered the room and collapsed on the sofa. "Hey to you too". Ken smiled.
"Sorry, tough day". Joe replied. "I lost a patient".
"Who"? Hikemi asked.
"Sora Takenouchi". Joe said.
"Sora!, oh man...". Ken looked down.
"You knew her"? Hikemi asked.
"Yeah, we were friends". Ken replied sadly.
"I'm sorry". Hikemi put her hand on his shoulder.
"I suppose I should go and tell Yamato and Tai". Ken replied getting up. He left the lounge.
"Will you be ok?, I've got a few charts to do". Hikemi looked at Joe.
"Yeah, I'll be fine".
"It's ok Joe, the bad news is you never get used to losing patients, the good news is you never get used to losing patients". Hikemi said as she too left the room.

Ken opened the door to Tanoshii's room and found Yamato wearing a set of scrubs and checking his son's chart. "As fetching as those are on you Yamato , you should be resting after your episode". Ken said taking Tanoshii's chart. "I'm fine Ken". Yamato replied. He grinned and took back the chart. "He woke up about fifteen minutes ago, he was groggy but alert to light. He complained of pain in his leg so I gave him another dose of morphine, he should be good now for a few hours. He went back to sleep about five minutes ago". He continued.
"Ok, that's good, and how's your lover over there"? Ken smiled.
"Tired". Yamato replied as he smiled at the sight of his boyfriend snoring gently in the chair beside Tanoshii's bed. "Hey, how's Sora"?
"Ah.that would be the reason why I came here". Ken replied looking uncomfortable.
"It's not good news I take it". Yamato looked at Ken who shook his head. "She's dead isn't she"?
"I'm sorry Yama".
"It's ok Ken" Yamato sighed. He stroked his son's forehead gently. "I doubt it'll make much difference to him, he hardly knew her".
"At least you can be thankful for that. Explaining death to a child is difficult, believe me".
"Yeah".
"Well, looks like my work here is done, and in half an hour I have a date with a tonsillectomy, which is always fun. Take things easy Yama, Hikemi can always arrange a cover". Ken said as he walked out of the room.

Joe was still sitting in the lounge, even though he had been paged twice. He stared at a picture he had retrieved from his locker. It pictured all of the older digidestined, the picture that was taken in Primary Village. Joe stared at the image of Sora, she was smiling happily, standing in between himself and Yamato. Joe's mind took him back to a night he and Sora had shared in the Digital World.
**flashback**
"Joe, do you think that we'll be ok"? Sora asked. Both her and Joe had stayed awake and were watching the others sleep. "I think so, Gennai says if we stick together". Joe replied.
"You know, sometimes Joe, you can be really brave. I feel like I can talk to you about anything, I go as far as saying you're my best friend". Sora took Joe's hand and smiled.
**end flashback**
Joe threw the picture across the lounge and dropped to his knees. He held his head in his hands. "What have I done"? He asked out loud. He slowly started to sob. He had killed one of his friends. Even though the pair had become less close, and she had hurt Yamato, they were still friends. Joe had killed her, he was a murderer. He sobbed bitterly. The guilt ripping apart his insides. He had to do something, he had to make himself feel better. There had to be a way. An idea suddenly floated into his head. He stood up and wiped his eyes. He ran out of the lounge and towards the pharmacy. He ignored people who called his name, asking why he had not responded to the pages he'd been sent. Joe slammed the drug storage door shut. He unlocked the cabinet using the keys around his belt. He frantically searched through the cupboard and found what he was looking for. He smiled manically and opened the package, he took out four pills and was about to throw them into his mouth before he was knocked out. "Sorry buddy had to do it". Yamato said as he unclenched his fist and stared at Joe on the floor. "Ishida what's going on in here"? Hikemi demanded. She stood by the now open door.
"Nothing , it's being sorted out". Yamato replied. He picked Joe up and carried him out of the room, leaving Hikemi staring after them.
