It bright was Keiko's first thought she slowly opened her eyes. There was Botan looking down at her smiling but she still looked grim. "Boton?" Keiko asked when she found her voice. "Am I dead?"

Botan's eyes filled with tears even though the fairy girl shook her head. "No, but Yusuke might be, again." Keiko sat up quickly only to be pushed back down and forced to fight off a 'bout of nausea. "Don't sit up just yet," Botan handed her some pills and a straw to drink some water out of. "Takes these and drink this. I have healed you as much as I could. But my powers don't do anything about excessive blood lose, your body has to regenerate its own blood."

"Thank you Botan." Keiko smiled weakly up at her friend. "Botan? What happened?" Botan gave Keiko a look she couldn't interpret, "Do I have something on my face?"

Botan chuckled lightly. "No, but, you mean to tell me you don't remember what happened?" Keiko shook her head and then regretted it as nausea hit her again. Botan sighed. "Koenma showed me the tapes. Yusuke stopped the guy that tried to highjack your car with you in it. Unfortunately they struggled." She sighed then spoke making sure she didn't upset her friend more. "Sometime during the struggle two things happened. He managed to grabbed a knife, but Yusuke knocked that out of his hand; and his gun went off." Botan combed her hair with her hand. "The knife that Yusuke knocked out of his hand logged its self in your chest just shy of the heart. The bullet in the gun did the same with Yusuke. But we aren't sure where the bullet ended up. It will take a while, he is in surgery right now." Keiko didn't notice the tears that had began falling until Botan wiped them away with a tissue. "Don't worry Keiko, Koenma himself is operating on Yusuke, he is really good." Keiko closed her eyes. "Don't worry he took his teenage form. Wouldn't want a baby to operate right?" Keiko managed a small smile but still didn't open her eyes.

"KEIKO!"

"Harry?" Keiko opened her eyes just enough to see her worried friend.

"Keiko, are you alright?" He didn't take his eyes off her. They had become a dark green with his worry.

Boton stood from the bedside to face Harry. "She is fine just lost a lot of blood. She should be up in another couple of days."

Harry nodded his understanding. "Is Yusuke in surgery again?" Boton nodded. Harry raised an eyebrow. "He doesn't need it you know."

Boton looked shocked. "How could you say something like that?" She almost shouted finally.

"There is a potion that Hermione read about that can track metal in the body, the part of the body glows. But it is only concentrated amounts. I have almost finished it. If you are willing to use my help."

"I'll talk to Koenma."

"Where is the surgery this time?"

"The back, Koenma think it must have logged itself near the spin, which is potentially dangerous."

"How long have I been out?" Keiko's voice, though it was barley above a whisper, scared both her friends.

"A week."

"But that means I missed Harry's try outs! I'm so sorry Harry!"

"It's okay Keiko. Ron and Hermione are in town they came when I sent them an owl." Harry spoke calmly then swiftly changed the subject.

"Don't change the subject on me Harry Dylan Potter!" Maybe not successfully. Keiko looked close to tears, which scared the tall boy-who- lived.

"Harry? Is Keiko up? We heard - Keiko!" Hermione exclaimed when she saw her friend laying in the bed.

"Hello Hermione." Keiko spoke softly as her friend hugged her roughly.

"Hey Keiko I see your feeling better." The baritone voice floated across the room.

"I'm glade to see you to Ron." Keiko smiled.

Boton excited quietly to give the wizards and witch time with their friend in bed.

"Hiei slow the bleeding."

Hiei concentrated with his Jagan trying to slow the blood flow.

"It's still coming out to fast!" Koenma exclaimed.

"Sew him up it's not in there!" Kurama exclaimed from his post at the screen.

"His life energy is fading Koenma!" Kuwabara exclaimed as he was meditating keeping a tap on Yusuke's life and spirit energy.

"Shimatta!"
