TITLE: Midnight Train (19/?)
"Okay, I've made arrangements for one of you to go in at a time," Richards walked out. Everyone stood and looked around; they didn't know how to act. Their friend was about to die. They didn't know what to say.
"Is it okay if we go first?" David asked everyone. He was standing next to his sisters near the door.
"Of course," Leo nodded. "Can you fit three in there?" Leo asked.
"Are you family?" Richards asked.
"Yes, I'm his brother and these are our sisters," David nodded.
"Follow me," Richards led them into a dark room. The only thing that was on was a small light above Toby.
"Toby," Kate Ziegler grabbed Toby's hand and cried. "Look at him David," She cried out.
"Hey brother, we're right here," David bent down and kissed his brother on the head.
"I'll leave you alone," Richards nodded and walked out.
"Hey Toby," Jane Ziegler walked over and grabbed his other hand and squeezed it.
"This doesn't seem real," Kate whispered. "He just looks like he's sleeping."
"He is," David said. "But he needs to wake up. Come on Toby, show these doctors that they're wrong about you," David pleaded, but got no response.
"We love you Toby," Kate bent down and kissed her bother on the cheek.
"Please come back to us," Jane cried and grabbed David. "This can't happen!" She demanded and then buried her head in David's shoulder crying.
Kate walked over and wrapped her arms around Jane and David and cried. David reached down and grabbed Toby hand.
"You'll always be with us brother," David cried. "Never stop fighting."
"Goodbye," Jane said as she bent down and kissed Toby on the forehead. "I'll never forget you," Jane looked into Toby's face once more and turned around. She took a deep breath and placed her hands over her mouth and walked out.
"I'll always be thinking about you," Kate kissed him again. "I love you," Kate stood over Toby and shut her eyes. She said a silent prayer before walking out to join her sister.
"You hear that Toby. We're here. You have to wake up," David grabbed Toby's hand and pleaded. "I know I haven't been the best brother, but I love you very much," David cried. He bent down and rested his forehead on Toby's forehead. "You'll always be in my heart," David felt the tears fall down from his face. "Goodbye," David closed his eyes and kissed Toby slowly on the cheek and stood up. He squeezed his hand once more before walking out and joining his sisters.
"Why did this have to happen?" Jane cried on David's shoulder.
"I don't know," David grabbed both of his sisters' hands and walked back out to the waiting area. Everyone could see them all crying. Jane and Kate sat next to Leo, while David stood facing the wall. He put his head against it and cried for his brother.
