Farf: any day now Schu!

Yohji: Is he really going to do it?

Schu: *doesn't say anything but tries to think of something to do*

Ran: *looks at Schu* *thinking to Schu* *Tell me your not..*

Schu: *hears ran in his head, and thinks: don't worry I'm not going to*

Ran: *thinking* *your scaring me..*

Brad: SCHU DO IT NOW! I ORDER YOU TO SHOOT HIM!

Ran: *cringes*

Schu: *hears him again and thinks, I'm sorry...*

Brad: SCHU YOU BETTER SHOOT HIM OR I WILL AND THEN YOU'RE NEXT!

Farf: yup

Schu: *thinks: here goes nothing and gets ready to fire*

Ran: *whimpers to himself*

Schu: *turns quickly facing Farf and shots him in his knife shooting arm and his upper leg and then shots Brad the same way*

Ran: *blinks*

Schu: Run!

Ken: Ran, I'm taking Yohji to the hospital before he dies on us.

Schu: *runs over to where ran is*

Ran: I can't run… *looks down*

Schu: *looks at him*

~*Ken and Yohji leave*~

Schu: *closes his eyes and listens to brad's thinking*

Brad: (thinking) I'm so glad that he doesn't know that the car is behind the tree....*

Ran: *looks up at Schu* it hurts.

Schu: *nods* I know but the car is right behind the tree, I will try to help you as much as I can

Ran: *attempts to stand up*

Brad: NO! YOU CANT READ MY MIND TO FIND OUT WHERE THE CAR IS!

Schu: *helps him* I already did Bradley.

Ran: *leans against him*

Schu: *slowly walks to the car*

Ran: *clinging to him and walking with him as best as he can*

Schu [11:14 PM]: *gets to the car and puts Ran in and then goes around to the other side and gets in* So where are we going to go now?

Ran: I don't know.. *hurting too much to care*

Schu: Well what hospital do you go to? *starts the car*

Ran: iie. No hospital..

Schu: I don't know where to take you, where do you go to hide from us?

Ran: my house. Ken and Yohji will be at the hospital most of the night and Omi will probably be asleep or with that Okra girl

Schu: okay that's fine

Ran: I hope you can clean and bandage me, because I will not step in a hospital.

Schu: *gets on to the road and drives*

Schu: *nods* I can don't worry I will take care of you

Ran: would you have really… shot me?

Schu: *shakes his head* No I would never shoot you

Ran: *closes his eyes*

Schu: ~*~Drives to Ran's house with help from Ran and carries Ran inside~*~

Ran: I can walk

Schu: are you sure? *looks at him*

Ran: *lays his head on his shoulder* I can but I like being carried

Schu: *smiles, walks into Ran's house and goes to Ran's room*

Ran: lock the door

Schu: *nods and locks the door, walks over to Ran's bed*

Ran: *yawns*

Schu: *sets him on the bed and gets bandages and medicine*

Ran: *watches him*

Schu: *walks back over to the bed and begins to clean and bandage Ran's wounds*

Ran: what are you going to do now? You can't go back to Schwartz

Schu: *shakes his head* I don't know

Ran: stay here tonight.

Schu: *finishes bandaging him*

Schu: *nods and puts the stuff away* You sure Omi, Yohji and Ken will be ok with that?

Ran: I don't care if they are or not. My doors locked. They can stay out of my personal life

Schu: *nods* well I think you need to rest

Ran: *curls up under the blankets*

Schu: *looks at him, brushes some hair out of his face*

Ran: you staying?

Schu: yeah

Ran: promise?

Schu: *nods* I promise

Ran: where you sleeping?

Schu: I don't know where can I sleep?

Ran: with me? *meek sounding*

Schu: *nods and gets in to the bed next to him*

Ran: *closes his eyes*

Schu: *looks at him*

Ran: *falls asleep*

Schu: *watches him sleep* *falls asleep later on*

Ran: *Morning*

Schu: *is already awake and looking at Ran while he sleeps*

Ran: *wakes*

Schu: *smiles* good morning

Ran: I hurt….

Schu: I'm sorry

Ran: *looks at him*

Schu: does it hurt as bad as last night?

Ran: worse

Schu: *gets up* I'm going to bandage it again and put some medicine on it and maybe that will help

Ran: *watches him* arigato

Schu: *goes and gets the bandages and medicine and rebandages him*

Ran: *whimpers*

Schu: I'm sorry

Ran: *smiles slightly*

Schu: *puts the stuff away* I wish I could help you more

Ran: *sits up*

Schu: *helps him so he doesn't hurt him self any more*

Ran: what are we going to do now? *leans against him*

Schu: I don't know, I don't think that Yohji, Ken, and Omi will want me to stay

Ran: you have too stay

Schu: I want to but I don't think they would want me to

Ran: *sighs* then lets go talk to them.

Schu: *nods*

Ran: *gets up as best as he can*

Schu: *helps him* lean on me, your not strong enough to go on your own

Ran: *leans on him*

Schu: *walks to where he is helping Ran*

Ken: *blinks*

Ran: *looks at everyone*

Omi: umm Ran...

Ran: what?

Omi: umm why is he here?

~*~Yohji is still sleeping~*~

Ken: yea.

Schu: *looks down*

Ran: He's staying for a while

Schu: Omi: But he's...

Ken: an enemy!

Schu: but...

Ran: *clinging to schu for support* whatever.

Omi: HES NOT ON OUR SIDE!

Ran: NOW HE IS

Ken: HE CAN'T BE

Omi: *blinks*

Schu: *looks at Ran*

Ran: *looks back*

Schu: whispers: they will never believe you...

Ran: *thinking to Schu: they have too*

Schu: *looks at everyone and looks down*

Ran: onegai..

Omi: He can never come to our side how can we trust him if he is a traitor

Ken: never.

Ran: *Sighs*

Schu: *walks slowly to a chair and places ran on it*

Ran: you have to believe me. I won't let you not believe me. I love him.

Omi *blinks over and over*

~*~Yohji walks in just hear that Ran said he loved someone~*~

Ken: you can't!

Yohji: WHAT?! Ran you love who? Omi? Ken? Me? Who is that?

Ran: Schu. I love Schu. Not you, Ken, or Omi.

Yohji: *blinks hard* isn't he umm from umm the enemy?

Ran: *sighs*

Schu: *looks at Ran and lightly puts his hand on his shoulder* it's ok Ran

Ran: no its not.

Schu: *looks at him*

Yohji: Your telling me that you really love him and that you are going to trust him even though he is our enemy?

Ran [11:40 PM]: *nods* that's exactly what I've been saying.

Yohji: *lights a cigarette* well I guess if Ran can trust him then we can...

Omi: I don't know....

Ken: we can't.

Schu: *looks at ken* but why?

Ken: because. You're an enemy and you can be doing this just to get close to us. It could all be an act and once we let our guards down you'll turn on us

Schu: but I wont!

Omi: but how do we know your not telling a lie?

Ran: *whimpers to himself*

Schu: Look everyone I love Ran and I would nothing to hurt him, and because you are his friends I would never do anything to hurt you

Ken: I still don't trust you and never will *leaves for soccer practice*

Schu: *looks down at the ground*

Ran: *stands up* lets go back upstairs

Yohji: *looks at Ran and then at Schu* Well I guess since Ran is the leader and he has good judgment so ill trust you

Schu: *looks at Ran and nods*

Schu: I will help

Ran: arigato Yohji
