Akira lay on her bed watching her brother fall to the floor; his face was turned away from her, she was sure that Kazu would be fighting against his laughter in a attempt to panic his sister into thinking that he had become 'The World's' newest victim; when in fact Kazu was not just playing around, Kazu really had become 'The World's' newest victim. Akira decided that it was best to leave her brother alone to make him realize that he was not going to get the attention she thought he wanted. She ignored him and continued to write her journal.
Moments later Akira realized that he brother hadn't moved, in fact he was still lying in the exact same spot; he didn't seem to be breathing as much as he should. Akira decided that this was just another of Kazu's pranks, she threw a stuffed toy at him. Still he didn't move. Akira got off her bed, forcefully turning her brothers head towards her, hitting it against the leg of the computer desk; still he didn't react, surely that must have hurt him; this caused Akira to begin a huge panic. She ran out of her room and down the stairs in a panicked frenzy. She dialed the emergency services and asked for an ambulance; she explained the details of the accident; gave the address and rushed back upstairs to be by her brother's side.
Akira found herself unable to focus on anything; she had already called her parents and told them about what had happened and told them to come home. By the time the ambulance arrived Akira had managed to move her brother onto her bed to make him more comfortable, she led the paramedics to her bedroom where they examined Kazuhiro's lifeless body while she waited outside the room, finding it unbearable to watch. When they had finished examining him, the paramedics called Akira back into the room. They gently told her that her brother would have to be taken into hospital for further examination and testing.
The two paramedics fixed Kazu onto a stretcher and took him out of the house into an ambulance. Akira followed behind them trying not to cry in front of her little brother, she had to be strong for him, to make sure that if he did wake up, she was there for him.
Akira watched as the paramedics slammed the ambulance doors shut and started the siren to notify all traffic that this was an emergency situation; she sat on the bench next to Kazu's bed. Looking at her younger brother through tear-stained eyes she remembered a time when Kazu was just five years old, it had been Akira's eleventh birthday party, and Kazu had knocked her entire cake on the floor; at the time Akira was very annoyed with him and thought that he had done it just to ruin her day; but looking at him now she could see his innocence, she could see that he had not meant any harm by it. Akira increased the grip she had on Kazu's hand. "Come on Kazuhiro, wake up" she whispered; Akira lost the fight against herself and let a tear trickle down her cheek.
