Chapter 5-

Raimundo's POV (as always)

I wake up irritable. Kimiko is watching me intently when she realizes I'm conscious she nearly squeezed the life out of me.

"What's your problem?" I yell at her angrily.

"Rai, I was so worried about you!" she tells me and hugs me again.

"Why?" I growl annoyed, "aren't you still mad at me?"

"Rai, you know you can let go of things," Kimiko told me, "You been unconscious since yesterday! The doctor couldn't find anything wrong with you. We were so worried."

It was odd but I swear that I could barely hear what she was saying; even though she was apparently talking normal.

I closed me eyes and she stopped talking. Good, she kept going on and on in that quiet voice it was annoying. SMACK!

"Ow!" I yell angrily and snapped me eyes open to glare at her, "what was that for!"

"I was talking to you! Don't ignore me!" she yelled back with equal anger.

"You were still talking to me?" I asked surprised I hadn't heard her at all after my eyes closed I thought she was done talking.

"Yes, why don't you listen to me!" Kimiko growled annoyed.

"I didn't hear you," I told her quickly.

"Are you going deaf?" she yelled at me, "I was yelling at you!"

I looked at even more stunned.

"You honestly didn't hear that!" she asked annoyed. I shook my head, "you need your ears checked, Rai."

"Maybe," I muttered, somehow I doubted if it would help or not.

"Hey, how is he?" I heard Clay's voice I twisted around but don't see him, "oh, Rai, your awake good. How are you feeling?"

I tried to look in the direction I hear the voice but I don't see Clay.

"You okay?" he asks me, "Partner."

"Umm… fine," I sigh and close my eyes for several seconds. When I open them again Clay is standing right in front of me; a concerned look on his face.

"Hey," I tell him, man that was weird.

Clay seems to notice I'm looking at him now and the concerned look goes away.

"I think you need your eyes checked," he stated, "I waved my hand right in front of your face and you didn't seem to notice."

I stare at him surprised.

"Well, he needs his ears checked too. I was shouting and he apparently didn't hear me," Kim told Clay with a small nod.

"I think he's just playing with us," Clay told her slowly.

I continue listen to them talking to each other as if I wasn't there until I get bored. I get up and leave and they're still talking. I leave them to go for a walk, I'm kind of feeling a little cramped.

Outside I run into Omi.

"Hello, Raimundo, how are you feeling?" Omi asks curiously.

"I feel all right," I tell him with undue anger and leave him. Maybe he won't follow me if I seem angry. I continue walking around the grounds and Omi does leave me alone; for once. I'm starting feel a little better.

"Raimundo, I see you are up today. How are you feeling," Master Fung asked seemingly coming out of nowhere. It surprises me and I jump back a little.

"I was fine," I muttered, "you startled me."

I continued walking he didn't yell at me or anything so I assumed he was done talking to me. Of course maybe he was calling catch my attention and I couldn't hear him; you never know.

At lunch Master Fung told me that they had scheduled a doctor's appointment tomorrow so they could get me eyes and ears checked. That didn't thrill me so much.

The rest of the day sucked as much as the first part had. I wasn't looking forward to tomorrow's doctor appointment. I went to sleep just as annoyed as I had been all day.

I slept uneasy last night. I couldn't remember the dreams but I know they weren't sugar plums dancing and all.

Today, I was doomed to go to the doctor. I seriously didn't want to go. I knew I wasn't going blind but the deaf part, I don't know. Maybe all these things are connected. I don't know.

As I stroll into the kitchen I realize no one's up yet. Of course the sun wasn't up but how should I know what time it is? I quickly looked at the wall clock. Damn it's early. I don't have to be up for another hour or two. Why did I just get up and not check the time? I roll my eyes and start to go back to bed I'm not waiting up for two more hours.

I lie down and try to sleep. Seconds later I'm awoken by Omi's voice.

"Raimundo, are you up!" he shouts at me as if I really am so hard of hearing.

I jeer, "Damn, Omi, not so loud!"

"Good you are going to be late for your doctor's appointment!" Omi yells and runs off.

"MY DOCTOR'S APPOINTMENT!" I yell after him. "But that's not that's not 'till this afternoon!" Then I realize the sun coming in through the windows. "It's not that time already is it"

The last part was more of rhetorical question but seriously I thought I was a sleep for just a second.

No one answered my question anyway so I got up and got ready to go.

"They said nothing was wrong with my hearing and I have very good sight," I told them having just gotten back from the doctor's.

"Then you were faking it!" Kim shouted her head swelling and looking really mad.

"No!" I shouted, "I don't know about the other day. I think I must of dozed off and then you hit me and I woke up."

That did seem rather convincing even for me.

She sighed, "Maybe you're having some sleeping problem. Yeah, that most be it..."

She was still talking but her voice kept getting smaller and smaller. The amount of light in the room started to dissipate. I try to move to a chair to sit. I don't get more than two feet before I suddenly see spots and vaguely feel myself hit the floor.

End of chapter 5-

I only feel it's fair to warn you all that I'm currently experience writer's block with this story. I've written chapter 6 already you all still get it soon, but the next ones after that… I don't know when. It's this middle, middle part that gets me I know the middle, end part and pretty much the end. That's all I'm gonna say seeing as this actually a pretty popular fic or whatnot.

Thanks, please review!
