Kazuya came out of Cecilia's room and sighed defeated, Naomi looked up at him, he just shook his head. Naomi looked down sadly, Tyson sighed and pulled her into his arms. She just hung onto him tightly, if Cecilia leaves..... then there'll be one less person taking care of her. Cecilia... why does it have to be Cecilia?
Kazuya looked at the couple and then slowly walked towards the cafeteria, getting a cup of coffee. He sighed as he waited for the coffee, he can't even do anything with her. He can only watch as she slowly lose her strength day in and day out, her heart beat slowing down day by day. Right now, she can hardly sit up, talking too much will tire her out as well.
[Japan]
"We edit this much and then we can put it on the newspaper and on the news." Vic said, pointing out his plan to Seith as he talked onto the phone with Enrique, he hasn't been able to locate anything close to a cure for Cecilia.
Seith shut his phone and then lookd over to him, the video playing on beside them, Seith sat down and took a sip of the wine in front of him.
"Let's hope Voltare will be able to see this as well." Seith said and placed his arms on the table. "How long do we have?"
"As long as we need."
"How is she?" Voltare's voice rang out.
They both rolled their eyes as the video is playing to that part again, they only need that part.
"Master Voltare, the poison is working perfectly."
"Of couse, look who created it."
"Of course."
"Master Voltare, I'm curious as to know if there's any cure for Miss Cecilia at all?"
"Of course there is."
Vic and Seith both stopped whatever they were doing and looked back towards the screen.
"If you replace all the blood within her body, then she'll be fine. Time is up, we have to go now."
"Yes master."
The video then continued on, they just sat there shocked, finally, Vic turned to Seith. "And you didn't catch that?"
Seith just blinked slowly and then shook his head unbelievably. "I have at least heard that conversation three times... and not once did I catch that."
Vic then rolled his eyes at the younger guy, and stood up quickly. "What are you waiting for? Get to England, tell them the news."
"Yes, of course" He then looked at Vic. "Where are you going?"
Vic smiled and finished his wine. "I have to go to Canada, I need to pick up something for Lia."
Seith looked at him, he just smiled, but didn't say anything.
[England]
"That's the cure?" Amara shouted unbelievably as Seith finished telling about them, the whole room was silent, everyone looked on shocked. Kazuya groaned and slapped his forehead.
"Oh my God, I cannot believe I didn't think of such a simple cure before." He said defeated, Hiura just shook her head.
Kai turned to Seith and looked at him coldly, "and you didn't catch that part of the conversation until now?"
With that mentioned, every pair of eyes in the room were turned to him, they glarred at him and he gulped nervously. "Seriously... I have heard that conversation about three times... that's the first time I actually listened on to the rest of the conversation, so that's when I found out."
"Enough with that, when should she do the operation?" Tyson asked, and Seith frowned.
"That's the problem, Cecilia's so weak now... she cannot possibily do it, to my knowledge, if she does undergo this operation, she'll only have about... 10% to 20% chance of survival."
They quieted down again, Cecilia looked around the room, everyone's so worried on her behalf, she felt Kai's hand tighten around hers, she looked at them and smiled. "I'll do it."
"Lia..." Charlotte started.
"Don't worry, I'll pull through." She said confidently.
"Then... what are we waiting for? Let's go get ready!" Johnny said and stood up, everyone nodded and walked out as well. Seith looked at Cecilia, she smiled back and touched her necklace, telling him that she still remembers their promise. He smiled and walked out of the room, closing the door behind him.
After they were gone, Kai shifted over and sat on the head of the bed, leaning back against the headboard, he pulled Cecilia up carefully, her head on his chest, listening to his heart beat.
"Cecilia... are you sure you want to go through with this?"
"Kai, my choice never changes." She said softly, playing with her necklace.
"Then... come back out alive." He said softly, demand filled his voice, Cecilia smiled and then remembered something else, but he continued on. "We'll get married after you recover, I'm hoping that it'll be around winter time. You look the best when it's winter, you really are an angel then." He added softly, looking outside at the window.
"Kai... I don't want to be a winter bride, I want to be a spring bride."
Kai looked at her head, surprised. "Why?"
"I want to get married in April, in Japan. At that time, the cherry blossoms are most beautiful, I want to get married under them. They say that couples that marry under the falling cherry blossoms will be blessed with happiness forever, is that okay Kai?"
Kai nodded and took in a deep breath, "yeah, whatever you want is fine with me."
Cecilia tilted her head and looked up at him, he looked down into her eyes. "Kai... if I die, can you please marry another girl under the cherry blossoms? That way at least you'll be blessed with forever happiness."
"None sense, you won't die. I demand you to come out alive and you will listen to my demands." He said firmly, she smiled at him.
"Are you trying to argue with Hades?"
He didn't say anything, she glanced down then nodded and looked up at him again. "I'll try my hardest to marry you under the cherry blossoms, okay?"
Kai touched her face gingerly, and held onto her waist tightly. "We will get married."
With that, he slowly leaned down and touched her lips softly, leaving soft kisses that warmed her up....
[Outside]
Kai came out from Cecilia's room after she had gone to sleep, everyone's waiting for him, the ten doctors are there as well. He looked around confused, "what?"
"Kai... they have something to tell you." Ray said and looked at the doctors, Kai looked over at them as well.
"Mr Kai Hiwatari, the good news is that the operation will be getting going, we have more than enough blood for Miss Cecilia to do this operation."
"Are you sure those blood are fresh?" Kai asked with a frown.
"Don't worry." Naomi said and raised up her cell phone, Kai looked at her. "With one click of our cell phoens, the blood will be air lifted in, I promise you that they'll be fresh."
"Yes, Mr Hiwatari, they will be fresh, but we have some bad news as well." Kai then turned towards the doctors again. "Due to the operation... Miss Cecilia... will probably not be able to have any children at least for a while."
Kai looked at him, then crossed his arms across his chest. "At least a while... how long will the shortest time period be?"
"5 years."
"So... until she's 27."
"Yes, if she recovers perfectly."
"Why are you telling me this?" Kai asked coldly, the doctor sweat dropped nervously.
"Um... Mr Kai Hiwatari, we are just informing you of the consequences."
"That is not needed, she just needs to be alive. Children are not important, there's adoption."
Amara shivered and looked at Kai through unbelievable eyes. "Remind me to never ever let Alisa near you."
Kai just glanced at her, children compared to Cecilia, of course she's more important.
After that was decided, the next day, Cecilia was then being pushed out of her room on a bed. The nurses stopped in front of the group of people and she looked at them.
"Cecilia... the blue hyacinth will bring life to you." Seith said first, she nodded softly and touched the necklace.
"Cecilia... do your best." Ray said and touched her hand softly, she nodded back and patted his hand tiredly.
"Cecilia... good luck, come back to us." Max said and little Alisa wiggled her fingers at her, Cecilia nodded and reached up to touch Alisa's face.
"Cecilia, don't let us down, you can do it." Tyson said, giving her a thumb up, she nodded, and then turned to the Majestics.
"Cecilia, may the heaven shine up on you." Robert said and nodded at her.
"Lia...." Johnny began, wanting to say something inspiring, but faltered in the end. "Cecilia Joseph, you still own me a rematch on a beyblade battle, you better not forget it!" He said and crossed his arm over his chest, Cecilia nodded.
Oliver picked up her hand and looked at her, "La belle dame, pouvoir vous êtes comme un Ange et revenez à nous briller avec éclat." He said softly and placed a soft kiss on her hand, and then place a rose in her hair, she just smiled.
"Lia, you have to help me pick out a girlfriend, I so need your help, remember, I'm counting on you." Enrique said and leaned down to kiss her forehead, she nodded and touched his cheek, then she turned to Kai.
He looked at her, no emotion on his face what-so-ever, but she saw the worry in his eyes. Finally, he nodded at her, she smiled back. Last by not least, she turned to the Blood and Roses.
Simultaneously, all four of them pulled out their beyblades, and looked at her.
"Lia... even though Angel's not with you right now, but I'm sure Vegeta, Magician, Lucifer and Shogen will protect you. They have not let us down before, and they won't let us down ever." Hiura said, the other three nodded at her giving her a smile.
Cecilia looked at them and smiled back, Angel...................
The nurse cleared her throat and slowly, Cecilia was pushed into a double door and the door closed behind her. The red light on the wall above the door turned on.....
Even without anything I won't feel lonely,
Love and the whole world are all in my dreams,
Because I am waiting for you.
I am taking in everything right now,
In my heart, you never left me, you're always with me,
At the same time, share the same memories,
I await to share them with you.
Hope is not in the far future,
At this happy moment,
You return to my side,
Wipe away your tears,
The only thing left is your love.
There's no pain, because I have you in my heart,
So I'm not alone.
Do you know?
Becasue I am waiting for you,
I can take anything
In my heart, there's no place for us to leave, you're always with me,
Right now,
I await for you to return to me.....
They stood outside, waiting for the light to turn off, the Blood and Roses cluntched their beyblades in their hands tightly. Even though their bit-beasts are no longer with them, but they'll always be watching over them.
Hours went by, and then more hours went by, finally, the light turned off, everyone held their breath.
Slowly the door opened up, a doctor walked out, he looked at them calmly. They looked back at him, the doctor searched their eyes and finally stopped on Kai.
Then the doctor took off his mask and sighed, slowly he shook his head softly..........
TBC....
"La belle dame, pouvoir vous êtes comme un Ange et revenez à nous briller avec éclat" means:
