!THIS IS A TEST! THAT MEANS IT'S A PRE-WRITE!

Ack! This chapter is so short! I am ashamed! smack smack
Anyway... yeah. I think I might be going insane. No! normal school schedule tomorrow! Death to us all! dies
I would also like to say... I'm sorry for the lack of humor in these next two chapters (yes two) because I suck. Chapter eight will equal funniness though, I promise!

I do not own any of the tekken characters mentioned in this story. Seeing as the fangirl is me I suppose I do own her, right! I don't think I own my cousin though... is confuzzled

Chapter Six - Essence

Jun notified Kazuya that Dr. WuLong was done with his blood tests and he would be in later in the day to tell him the results. Kazuya was hoping that all of this would come to an end today, hoping that the blood test was just the last thing to get out of his way before he could leave this horrid place. The smell of the hospital was getting to him. He was getting nauseas more and more. Jun was the only thing that helped though. She was better than any modern medicine he had ever taken.

Jun took her usual spot next to Kazuya and spent most of her time there. She was always so comforting, he didn't know what it was about her, but he took great delight in being with her everyday. It was almost like she was his guardian angel. His, and no one else's. She was so sweet too. Jun told Kazuya about her life in Yakushima when she was little and how she grew up with her uncle since her parents died when she was young. She didn't say how her parents died but Kazuya suspected that it was because she herself really didn't know.

Kazuya felt simpathy for Jun, but also thought of how his life was. His father didn't care for him at all and only his mother ever showed him the kindness he needed, but when she died, he was heartbroken. Left with Heihachi. If only she knew what happened to him.
Pretty soon the room was silent again. Jun sat there with Kazuya and soon after dozed off.

She must've been up all night. Poor thing.

Kazuya reached out to stroke her hair when he noticed something in her pocket. Yes her breast pocket again, he can't help but look there. It was her cell phone. He looked up to see if she really was sleeping, then quickly took the object from her pocket. His hand was wanting to linger there a while longer but he didn't want to be caught. When he flipped it open there was a nice picture of her and her friend. He smiled. She was quite photogenic. There was a new text message on her phone and he was very curious to see what kind of person she was outside the hospital where nice was mandatory, although some people thought of it to be just a suggestion. He looked at the message. It was from someone named Michelle.

Jun, did you ask him yet? I'm dying to know! You know how impatient I am...

Simple, but it was something that now plagued his mind. What was this girl trying to make Jun ask? Who was this 'him'. Oh god, what if Jun liked another guy and she wanted to know if he liked her too? He couldn't bear to think of that. He wanted to be the only man in her life, now he had some other guy he had competition with. Well, he'd just have to be even more sincere around Jun to get her now. This random guy won't get her. Not while Kazuya Mishima is alive.

He played with her phone a while, looked through all of her pictures which were mostly of her friend, the same one that sent the message apparently. He soon grew tired of it and placed it back in her pocket carefully. He leaned back in his bed and decided maybe he should get some more sleep too. When he looked at Jun sleep, her cheeks a tiny tinge of red, he had to grin. She was quite beautiful. And soon, she would be his.

When the door swung open it had given Kazuya a heartattack and had awoken Jun from her slumber. When Kazuya saw it was Dr. WuLong, he was a little more than peeved off at him. Dr. WuLong's attention, as usual, was toward Jun and left Kazuya completely out of it. They were probably talking medical stuff that he couldn't understand anyway. Kazuya sat there mumbling incoherent things possibly about the death of the doctor. He was always too close to his Jun. And Kazuya didn't like it one bit.

The doctor kept talking and talking to Jun. It seemed like this time he actually had something to say, something important by the looks of it. Well, Jun thought so too, the way she was listening. She, at one point took on this strange look upon her face. She quickly glanced at Kazuya but looked back at the doctor after. Soon after that Dr. WuLong left and said he'd be back in a little while.

Jun just stared at Kazuya after that. She gave him such a simpathetic look... she had pity in her eyes. He couldn't stand it! What made her feel pity towards him? He was the owner of the Mishima Zaibatsu! No one should feel pity for him! Even if it's her, she shouldn't feel this way for him. He wanted her to love him, and this pity was entirely hurtful to his pride.

"I think you might have to stay here a little longer than expected..."

Of course Kazuya was angered, but he didn't want to show it in front of Jun. Why the hell did he have to stay here? He was perfectly healthy! There was nothing wrong with him, short of his slowly growing insanity. He just wanted to be out of here and sleep in a normal bed! Was that too much to ask for. Apparently there was since his good health was keeping him in the hospital. This was driving him mad.

Then he calmed down. Maybe it was just an error. Maybe they read something wrong. There was nothing in his blood that he could think of that could hinder his health. He was completely clean of everything and anything! There was no other thing in his blood. Nothing except for.

Oohhh poppycock...

There wasn't a reason health-wise for him to stay here. The Doctors would think otherwise though. He knew what kept him here and he couldn't help but hate himself at that moment. Of course they'd see it as an essence that no one could identify, but who would believe him if he told them it was the devil? Everything sounded screwed up. Oh that? That's just the devil coursing through my veins, he was there ever since I was twelve. That would not be seen very well, and there was nothing he could do about it. Not now. Now he didn't know what would get him out of this wretched hospital. He was completely stuck.

Kazuya sighed and sank in his bed. Jun probably thought he was a druggy and he had to clear that up with her first. He didn't want to seem like an unclean person in front of her.

"It's not what you think it is Jun." Kazuya solemly voiced. Jun chuckled.
"What could it be then, Kazuya? I can't think of anything but a contolled substance. They don't even know what it is... all they know is... it's... not detremental to your health in anyway..." Jun pulled the chair closer to Kazuya. She saw the grief in his face and she knew how much he wanted to leave and would do anything to make sure he did leave, but that wasn't up to her. The sadistic doctors just wanted to 'run a few tests' on poor Kazuya. She stroked his head.

"I don't know what it is and the first thing and only thing I can think of is drugs, but Kazuya, I believe you when you say it's not what I think it is, because, well, I just believe you." She smiled a weak smile. "Just know that I will be here for you"

Kazuya smiled. He finally has something worth in this life that doesn't have a price on it. He has the friendship of a really truly nice person. If Jun was here for the rest of his 'visit' at the hospital, then he could make it. He could very well make it. It was this lone thought that made everything seem possible. He could never thank Jun enough. He knew she was worried for her, and no one has ever worried about him, no one except his deceased mother. Jun was truly a miracle. His miracle.

When the doctor came in and told the news he already knew he just scoffed and sent him away. He didn't need a doctor like him. He didn't need anything of the sort. He just needed Jun by his side. That's all he needed...

...that and maybe a beer.

Whoa, that beer joke was random. Okay, so I totally smelled beer in my class the other day. It smelled good, but I didn't know where it was coming from. It still smelled good. :)
Okay, before I forget, I'd like to thank everyone who reviewed! YEI! You did not fail, the rest of the peoples did, but not you. You get an A+ and an e-cookie:D Happy!

R+R ---- e-cookie!
