Title: A fight to Remember Authors: Purrmeow and Krys Rating: R(the first few chapters won't seem like it.) Disclaimer: The characters in this story obviously do not belong to use, because if they did we would likely be rich and not be writing a fan fiction, which makes us no money. This story is currently being written in the format of RPing (role playing) between us, the two authors. To make the shifts in POV clearer, each reply will be a separate chapter labeled with the narrating character. This plot takes place just after where the TV series leaves off. *Note: ~ will be used to indicate flashbacks and * to indicate a shift to the POV of others characters, such as Tohru or Shigure.

Chapter Three: Kyou

Drifting in and out of consciousness, the thoroughly shocked teen was aware of one thing and one thing only,,, pain. He felt as though he were drowning, and he could not swim to safety, his lungs flooding with fluid. Hazy images of Tohru, Shigure, and Yuki appeared before his tear clouded eyes, but he was helpless to do anything but watch, and soon that ability was torn from his weakened grasp.

The doctor stared at the purple haired teenager before him from behind the glare of his thin-rimmed glasses, keeping a speculative eye on the sole occupant of his office. Sighing, he leaned back in the leather recliner before beginning his diagnosis, attempting to simplify the list as much as possible. "Well, it appears as though the patient's top four, right ribs have been broken (I understand that the punch landed to the left of Kyou's sternum, but I am assuming that we are using left as Yuki's left, otherwise, they would have punctured his heart, and Kyou would be dead. So long YukiXKyou pairing, ne). As a result, his right lung was punctured, we had to operate- I understand you'll be paying up front for that- but we've managed to close it up. The patient also has a bit of a concussion, so we can't be sure where that will lead, either way, we highly recommend leaving him in intensive care for the time being. " Concluding, he shot an icy glare at the dark haired mouse, he swiftly added," I can only assume how a catastrophe like this happened, but be more careful the next time you two brawl. We don't want something like this to happen again, now do we?"
