Let's make things short. Matt fell into the world of darkness…

Chapter 14: The Salvation (Tai's POV)
What the…? Where am I? Why am I here in this dark place?
I scratched my head, trying to remember how did I come here. Matt was in a critical state, then I saw Kaoru staring at me… Hey, could it possibly be Kaoru? Ah, never mind.
"Taichiiiiii!!!!" I spun around immediately. I know that voice! It was Matt! But…where is he?
"Matt!!" I called out loudly. "Matt, where are you?!" I called again, as I ran through the darkness.
Damn, if there's a light or something…
"Matt! Can you hear me? Matt!!" Argh! He's not responding! Where is he? Kami-sama, tell me!!
"Yamato!!!!!" finally I gave a last call.
I don't know since when I saw Matt floating down there, lying on his back. When I rushed to get him, I saw his eyes were closed, like the way he did in the ICU. I didn't like the peaceful look on his face, and I began to shake him.
"Matt, wake up!" I called repeatedly as tears began streaming down my face. However he didn't react and that made me even more heartbroken.
"Matt, you promised me not to leave me again! Have you forgotten?!" Wailing, I hugged this person I love, this motionless friend… yes, I love him; but he's still a friend to me. At least for now.
"…Tai?"
Upon hearing my name being caled, I released my brace and saw Matt smiling weakly at me. "You…came," he murmured.
I didn't know how to hide this happy feeling. "Matt! You're alive!" I exclaimed, bracing Matt again, even more tightly than before. "I'm worried about you! I… I thought you were…" I couldn't say anything more as I began to sob.
"Tai…" he murmured softly. "I'm okay… thanks for caring about me… I won't leave you… I had promised that before." With that I released my hands, and saw him smiling.
I decided to tell him my feelings on him. Maybe he'd think I'm a jerk but I have to tell this to him. "Matt, I… iloveyou," I blurted out. Matt seemed surprised, but then he smiled.
"You know what?" Matt asked me. "I love you too."
Once he said that, a flash of light fell upon us and took us out of the darkness.
