Chapter 5- The Crash

Beep! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "Ches!"

The impact of the car sent him flying off to the side of the road, but still conscious. Ches was not that lucky, because she was right in front of the car at that time. The car's speed was still really fast, which made her roll onto the front of the car. When the car came to an emergency stop, she flew off and crashed to the ground.

He saw her lying in the middle of the road. There was blood everywhere; most of it came from her head. He couldn't believe what he was seeing. He tried to get up, but after realizing that his legs had given up on him, he slowly crawled over to her with his arm. He winced at the sight of her. He tried to yell for help, but nothing came out. After few attempts, he too was swallowed up by darkness.

~at the hospital

Why is it so quiet? The boy in the bed thought.

~Flashback~

There were a bunch of kids yelling and screaming, a teacher crying, and desks were flying all over the place. Rowdiness, the best music of life! The boy on the desk thought as he peacefully enjoyed the 'music' around him.

Slam! "I'm going home! It doesn't look like we're going to get anything done today," came a female voice, and then turned towards him and asked, "Happy now?"

The girl from which the voice came from glared at him and walked out of the classroom. Silence, then, overtook the room "Darn girl, she ruined the rowdiness. I hate her. She's dead!"

~Back to the present~

It's the same silence that overtook the classroom so many years ago. Only this time, there's even more tension in the room, and I have no one to blame except for myself. He opened his eyes. All he saw was white and people crying. Then reality hit him. Ches! He immediately sat up.

"Oh good, you're awake!" A man sitting next to him said. "Natsumi's getting us something to eat. You want anything? Oh and the doctor says that you only broke your—"

"Where is Ches?"

"Oh the girl you were with? She's…" He thought for a second. Akito could tell that he was struggling on how to break it to him.

"Just tell me! Don't give me any of that nice crap! Those are just lies."

"She's…still unconscious. The doctors are not sure if she'll wake up or not. They say that the chance is slim to none."

He froze. If I hadn't told her to walk faster, this wouldn't have happened. I would have been able to stop her.

"They say if she does wake up, her mind might have some problems."

It's all my fault. Now I've hurt three girls within three years. "Did her mom come?"

"No. They say that her mom said that she's not obligated to care about the 'devil'." I wonder if she's seen the tape yet.

"Where's my daughter? Where is she?!" He heard a voice yelled from a distance. I guess she has.

Sana…is this how you felt when you saw my dad come pick me up that evening? Is this how you felt when you were waiting for me to wake up? Maybe you felt worse, because you loved me. Now I know why you thought it was your fault. "Can I go see her?"

"I guess…but maybe you should wait a while, like when you get a little better."

"No," he said firmly. "I can use a wheel chair. If I don't go now, it may be too late."

"Fine."

"Akito! You're awake!" Natsumi yelled.

"Not now Natsumi. I need see somebody."

"Oh." She helped him onto the chair and wheeled him out. When thy got there, he saw her mom walk out. There was no expression on her face, but he could tell that he had been crying. Her eyes were puffy and red. He went in and saw her lying on the bed motionless. He just sat there and stared at her.

"I'm sorry." He said, even though he knew that she couldn't hear him.

He stayed at the hospital for a few weeks just to see if she would ever wake up. Though her condition has been stable, she still hadn't shown any sign of possible recovery. He hasn't gone anywhere other than to get a check up on his own condition and do his regular necessities.

In between this time, Sana had called to ask about his situation. The bad thing about his condition is that he now has two recoveries to get over, the recent and the one that happened in Japan. His reason for coming to America was primarily to heal his paralyzed arm. He is going to start his rehab next week. He was going to start karate a week after he starts rehab, but he had to change plans.

Wait, did Ches just start stirring? Then silence took over the room again; the same silence that he had hated for so many years. At this moment, her eyes started to open.

"Ches! How does it feel?"

She just starred at him with a confused expression on her face.

"You're in the hospital right now. You got hit by a drunk driver when we left the park," he attempted to explain after seeing the expression, but the confused look didn't change. "What else do you want to know?"

"Who are you?"

"?! Uh…Akito Hayama."

"Do I know you?"

"Yeah…I'm the new student in Serran High School."

"Where's that?"

She doesn't remember anything! "Your school. Do you even remember who you are? Do you remember anything?"

"Uh…no."

"She's probably gotten amnesia," said a doctor as he entered the room. "We need to get her cat-scanned. Amnesia is one of the least damageable symptoms. We suspect that she may have had worse injuries done to her head. We're going to check. If she does, we have to fix it. Fast."

They got her onto a stretcher and pushed her out. He waited a few hours, and they finally came back. "We're going to go contact her mother. She's fine. All she has is amnesia. The reason she can't remember anything is because she has a blood clot that is pushing onto the part of her brain that contains all her memories. She will recover eventually. She'll be ready to leave in about 2 days."

Ches is going to live, he thought. He felt this great tension that has built up during the past few days suddenly leave him. Though the tension had left, the guilt was still there. He caused her to get amnesia. She has to suffer the feeling that everything is completely foreign to her when they're not suppose to be. Will she forgive him? Even though Sana said that I'm not a demon child, I still am. I killed my mom, hurt Fuuka's feelings, made Sana go through that much pain and now, Ches has gotten amnesia. I am a demon. Every female that has ever gotten close to me has suffered some sort of pain. I must leave and go to a place where there are no people to harm. If I can't find that place, I will just have to leave this world. If I continue to live here, more people will get hurt. I must leave.

A/N: Yea, I don't know when the next time I will update. But ill try sooner. Doubt it though. Sorry. Well please review so I know if it was worth updating. Thank you Hyperdingdong.
