Chapter 6: Mission Accomplished
Ren stirred as he slowly began to wake from the anaesthetic.
'Ren… I know you can hear me… I know you can hear what I'm saying in the back of your mind, listen to it because someone very dangerous is coming to hurt you, someone who was once a friend but is now an enemy. Please, don't trust him, don't believe a word he says… find me Ren, come and find me. Your Tao Ren… you can do anything…'
"H…Horo…?"
Ren's eyes opened and closed a couple of times, his vision blurry and unfocused.
As his vision slowly returned to him; he saw a tall figure standing before him, dressed in hooded long brown a cloak.
"W-Who are you?" asked Ren, noticing the weakness in his own voice.
"…No one important…" the figure replied calmly.
"Y-You know were Horo is, don't you… you're the one who keeps hurting him…"
The figure looked down at Ren; then removed a small bottle from his pocket filled with a white power.
"Don't worry, I'll take good care of him… as for you… your time in this world is just about up."
Because of Ren's injuries, he could only sit back and watch helplessly as the figure put the power in his drip.
As the figure was walking away, Ren called out to them.
"He isn't yours you know. You don't own him."
Ren felt weak and tired for some reason, like all his systems were shutting down.
"That's were your wrong Ren, I do own him. And as soon as I dispose of you the better, because as soon as your out of the way, the easier it will be to crush his spirit, and then he will be mine forever."
"Why? Why did you betray us Hao, what good will this do?"
The figure smiled and removed his hood, letting the long brown hair flow down past his shoulders. "I never betrayed you, because I was never with you in the first place. Horo is mine now… and in just a few seconds; you'll be removed from Horo's life." He smiled a wicked grin, and walked out of Ren's cubical.
Within seconds, Ren felt himself being wrapped in a blanked of darkness, and his eyes slowly closed once more.
A few hours had passed and a nurse slipped into Ren's cubical to monitor his progress.
"Hey, can I get some help in here please!" she yelled, and three or four more doctors and nurses flooded the cubical.
"What's wrong?"
"This boy, he was supposed to wake up from the anaesthetic hours ago, but hasn't."
"That's strange…" said a doctor, examining the boy closely, "but for some odd reason… this boy… he's in a coma."
Unicorn13564: Yet another twist. v.v Sorry people who didn't want it to be Hao, but there were loads of hints and most of you guessed it straight away. When you all said it's Lyserg, I was like 'fuck! Of all the people I had to pick and put to shame in this story, I had to pick Hao! I could have made Lyserg even lower then he already was!' And sorry I said that he was an old friend n whatever, but its coz I've red and written so many stories were he is actually friends with them, I just think in my head that he's friends with them all the time, lol. …Bless Ren, he's so… in a coma…
