Chapter Six
The looked at her, with both surprise and shock. "H-How did you get in here?" They asked, puzzled.
She looked at them, her eyes were still quite pink from crying though they were loosing the red look to them. "Are you forgetting that I own this building. I have all the keys, just in case." She smiled a weak smile. "I heard you trying to hack into the disk so I came over. What else were you talking about?" She questioned them.
"We were talking about the disk, that's all." He said, not wanting to tell her the truth. "Why do you think he's not religious?" Quatre asked her.
"Because it's a song. The password is 'Tourniquet.' " She stated.
"How do you know that?" Trowa asked as he typed in the word. He clicked enter and waited for the screen to flash incorrect password.
"It's a song by Evanescence. It's all about suicide and salvation. The words that it sang, that was the beginning of the song. I guess he figured you wouldn't know much about music and such so he decided to add that as an extra safety measure.
If you listened when the screen popped up it didn't have a normal alert sounder and played a little tune. I found the CD in Heero's stuff." She said and started to walk off. Then she stopped. She heard a lot of racket and commotion in the room Heero was lodged in.
"Oh my god…" She whispered. "Heero!" She screamed and ran off, only to find the door locked and closed. She didn't have any keys to the room Heero was in or any other in the Hospital Wing. They never made any incase of a break in.
The Gundam pilots and Noin heard the commotion too and ran towards the room. They tried budging it but it wouldn't. It was made of very heavy oak. Trowa removed his gun. Relena screamed into the door for Heero. She could here things scatter and break, though Heero couldn't defend himself. He was still in the coma and was utterly helpless until the doctors gave him the medicine to remove it completely.
"Move!" Trowa shouted and shoved Relena out of the way. He aimed his gun and the door handle and left out a deafening BANG!! The door swung open to reveal and person dressed in all black with a black ski mask over the intruder's face. The person jumped out the window with a sudden swoop and then landed on the sidewalk and jumped into a black car with no license. Trowa fired two more shots, hitting the car's back, bulletproof windows.
Everyone turned to Heero who was clutching the bed sheets tightly. He has scraps over his chest and glass was on the sheet and floor all around him. His breath was labored and fast. He had his eyes shut in pain.
Loud footsteps came rushing down the hall. The doctors were making their way to Heero's room and looked quickly at the boy they were in charge of.
"It's too soon, his heart can't take the strain!" The doctor said quickly. Relena looked at him with terror filled eyes. The other doctors quickly pushed them out of the door. Then shut it as best and they could without the door handle.
"Heero!" Relena cried, collapsing on the ground. The others made a circle to enclosure her with their sympathy. Noin swept her into a deep hug.
Muffled yells were heard from the doctors. "Hold him down and give him the sedative! He can't take the strain too much longer!"
"Sir, his blood pressure is rising!" someone called in a panicked tone.
"Hurry!"
An agonized scream from Heero's room caught their eyes and they all gazed at it, with fear for their friend in their eyes. They had never heard him in such pain before. If it made him cry out, then it had to be a lot since he was trained to withstand things such as this.
"Heero!" Relena sobbed though choked cries of pain as she heard the cry of agony from the young pilot.
"Relena!" Noin said, shaking her. "Relena, calm down, if he hears you…he might stress his body even more than it already is!" She pleaded. "Do you want him to be in more pain?" She asked as she watched doctors leave to and from the room. The muffled sounds could still be heard.
"When is she coming?" Relena pleaded desperately. Noin had told her that she had called someone else to come and assist them. Someone who seemed closer to Heero. She was also a skilled doctor.
"I don't know." Noin shook her head, feeling more sorrow whelm up inside her. "I don't know." She murmured. She embraced the young girl again, hoping that she would come as soon as she could.
"Who?" Trowa asked, never letting his eyes leave the door where Heero was slowly calming down. When the intruder broke in, it shattered glass every where. Duo went back to get the disk to make sure nothing happened to it.
"Sally Po." Noin stated.
"Yes?" A young feminine voice was heard from behind them.
