Hey again!
Wow! Thanks for all the great reviews!
I couldn't believe how many people got so worked up when they thought I killed off Kai!
hehe
Well, here's the next chapter....it's not the last, as I originally thought.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Seconds ticked by with an agonizing slowness as the BladeBreakers waited at the hospital.
Kenny was keeping himself busy by typing rapidly away on Dizzi, Max and Tyson had gone off in search of a vending machine, leaving Rei to comfort Hilary. The young brunette had cried herself to sleep, and rested against the Chinese blader's shoulder.
Hours went by, and still no word about their captain.
"Please Kai....you just have to pull through! If not for us....then...for Hilary...." Rei thought to himself.
The long afternoon had turned to night, and eventually turned into a new day, and still they waited. After what seemed like ages, a doctor appeared around the corner.
"Are you the ones that brought it Kai Hiwatari?" The young doctor asked.
"Yes, how is he?" Mr. Dickinson got to his feet.
"Well.....he's suffering from many injuries. Multiple gashes from what appears to be a large knife, he also has a broken arm, and a gunshot wound to the chest. He's lost alot of weight and is malnourished." The doctor replied.
"Will he live?" Hilary asked tearfully.
"I....It's very hard to say right now. His body's been through so much, and lost so much blood that I......" The doctor looked away. "He might go into a coma if he doesn't wake up soon...."
Everyone gasped. Hilary collapsed to her knees, feeling another wave of tears about to come.
"You promised me we'd be together again......you promised!" She yelled out mentally.
"Can....can we see him?" Tyson asked once he found his voice.
The doctor nodded solemnly and led the group down the hall.
The BladeBreakers paused at the door, not sure if they really wanted to see what lay behind it.
Hilary took the knob in her hand and slowly began to turn it. She sniffed her tears back and stepped into the dim room, the rest of her team following behind her.
Their captain laid motionless on the small bed. His chest was wrapped tightly in gauze, blood slowly seeping through already, and a thick, plaster cast covered his left arm.
"Kai..." Hilary sniffed as she took his hand in hers. "Please Kai....wake up."
"Man....." Tyson was shocked. "This doesn't look good...."
The other boys nodded silently in agreement. Kai was in horrible shape.
Hilary looked into his struggling face as tears began falling from her eyes, splashing on his hot skin.
"Hey Kai! Wake up already! This isn't funny!" Tyson exclaimed.
"Come on! We need you Kai! Please wake up!" Max added.
Rei looked down at the floor, trying to hold back his tears. Kai couldn't die now, after everything that had happened! He just couldn't!
"Come on kids....you need to leave now." A voice appeared behind the door.
"Kai....I'm sorry...I should have listened to you..." Hilary cried into the injured teen's chest.
"Come on Hil....let's go." Rei placed a hand on her shoulder.
"No! I want to stay....."
"We can't...." The Chinese blader looked sadly at the brunette, while pulling her to her feet.
She burst out in sobs as she was being pulled away from her boyfriend. She let go of his hand and walked out with Rei, his arm around her shoulders, comforting her.
The door closed again, and everything was silent except for the beeping of the machines. A stray tear ran down the wounded teen's cheek as he slept.
"Hil....ary....."
The BladeBreakers returned day after day, with hopes of their captain awakening, but with no such luck. Tala, meanwhile, had regained consciousness, and was allowed visitors.
Rei, Tyson, and Hilary walked into his room.
"Hey Tala! How are you feeling?" Rei asked.
"I'm fine. Tyson...did you get Dragoon back?" The Russian asked.
The navy haired blader nodded. "Thank you. You risked alot giving it to Kai."
Tala smirked weakly. "I'm sorry for taking it....we had no choice."
"Hey! Don't worry about it!" Tyson smiled brightly.
The red head's blue eyes focused on Hilary, who had remained silent since they entered the room. "Hey....you. You're Hilary, aren't you?"
The brunette nodded. "How did you know?"
Tala chuckled. "Kai was always talking about you. You're just as he described....and then Boris wiped his memory...."
Hilary blushed. Kai told him about her?
"You are the light of his world Hilary, don't forget that....." Tala sighed loudly and closed his eyes.
"We'll let you rest now Tala. Get well soon!" Rei patted him on the shoulder gently as the group left.
Hilary pondered what the red headed Russian had said as they made their way down to Kai's room.
"Hey Hilary! We're going to go get some lunch now, want to come?" Rei asked as Tyson took off running over to Max and Kenny.
"No, I'm not hungry. Go on without me." The brunette forced a smiled at the Chinese teen.
"Alright...." Rei stared at her for a moment before turning and following everyone else out.
Hilary walked into Kai's room and sat next to his bed. She played with the slate colored bangs around his face and forced more tears back.
"Oh Kai....please wake up!" A voice rang through the darkness.
Kai opened his eyes slightly, looking for the owner of that voice, but only saw a black cloud of solitude.
"Kai....I'm so sorry!" It cried.
"I...I know that voice!" Kai thought. "Hilary!"
"This is all my fault...I should have forfeited like you told me to. If I did that, you wouldn't be dying."
"Dying?" Kai asked. "But I'm here! Hilary! I'm right here!" He tried to move his body, but it was weighed down like lead.
"Why won't you wake up!" She cried. Kai heard loud sobs in the distance.
"I'm trying to Hil!" Kai called out to her. He cursed. Why couldn't he wake up?
Hilary reached out and grabbed his hand. Tears fell down on his arm, causing his fingers to twitch slightly.
The brunette gasped at the moment. "Kai?!"
Suddenly, his face was contorted in pain, and he moaned. His hand squeezed hers gently as he forced his crimson eyes open halfway.
Once his eyes adjusted to the light, he focused on a figure hovering over him.
"Kai?" It asked, half excited and half worried.
"Hilary...." He moaned again. "Are.....you okay?"
"Kai!" She cried, hugging him gently. "I thought you were going to die!"
"Die?" He gasped and began coughing.
"Oh no! Help! Someone!" Hilary called out.
A couple doctors entered immediately and began attending to the wounded teen.
"What happened?" One of them asked.
"I...I don't know! He just woke up...and then...." The brunette was scared. She had no idea what was happening.
The doctor injected something into the teen's arm, and strapped an oxygen mask over his nose and mouth. "The bullet must have punctured a lung!"
Hilary was ushered out of the room while the doctors tried to stabilize Kai. She walked lifelessly back down to the waiting room and flopped down on a chair.
"Kai woke up, but now, he's in more pain!" She looked down at her lap. "That's all I seem to cause him....."
