Lloyd POV: After ordering a new mast we all agreed that it was time to go to sleep. I walked to my room and crawled into bed. I passed out as soon as my head hit the pillow.
I found myself back at the temple. None of us have been back here since that day, but how did I get here in the first place?
I turned and saw... Kai? He was just standing in the middle of the ground with his back facing me. I ran up to him and grabbed his shoulder, but before I could say anything he fell on top of me, covered in blood. His eyes were closed and had blood dripping from them. The giant stab wound was dominating his chest.
I froze at the sight, he didn't look like this earlier. I slowly pushed him off me, before grabbing my arm. He opened his blood red eyes and tried to say something, but he dissolved into ash. I tried to stop it and keep him together until someone grabbed my shoulder and pulled me away, it was the masked girl.
"That is pointless." She said in a hollow voice.
"But I can't just let him die again!"
"You can't help him. You're not strong enough."
"I have to be strong enough. My team count on me!" I pushed away from her.
"Still doesn't change the fact that you are weak." She got really close to me, but that didn't matter since I was suddenly falling.
I woke up in a start, panting hard. That was one of the worst nightmares I've ever had. I flopped back and took deep breaths, and once I calmed down I check the time: 6:57.
Well, at least I didn't wake up in the middle of the night. I got up and dressed. After eating breakfast alone I decided that I would visit Wu and my mom.
Ever since that day my mom has lived in a small apartment next to the hospital so she could help take care of Sensei.
It has been a while since I talked to either of them. The new mast wouldn't be here until late in the afternoon, so I had plenty of time before then.
I left a note, took my motorcycle, and left. We weren't that far from the city so the drive wasn't that long and the hospital wasn't that busy. Wu was placed in a special room and we could walk in without having to sign in, due to a favor Borg pulled for us.
Mom wasn't here and the nurses were done checking him and were leaving when I walked in. I grabbed the chair in the corner and sat down. Sensei was lying in the bed like he was just asleep. If I didn't know better I would wait until he woke up so I could ask his advice.
"Hey, Sensei. I hope that you're doing better today. The doctors say that your brain wave activity is strong and you might wake up at any time." I said after a few moments.
"You know. We're all trying hard here to fight whoever did this to you and..." I couldn't bring myself to say his name.
"Well you get the picture. I know that you can't do anything, but I just wanted to tell you that you have been really helpful these past few years. I don't think I could feel stable without these visits. So thank you."
I stayed there, thinking mom would be here soon. She didn't come, but I talked with a nurse that came in and said that she already left because she got a call.
I guess that I wasn't going to talk to her soon, so I might as well cut this visit short. though just as I was leaving I noticed someone suspicious.
It was a tall guy in a black hood and a white surgical mask. His hood was pulled down so I couldn't see his face, but based on his posture and the spot where he was sitting I could tell what room he was watching. Wu's.
I didn't know if he was a member of that group or not, but I wasn't going to take any chances. I pretended to leave and stopped at a spot where he couldn't see me. He got up not that soon after me and walked down the hall. He stopped for a second by the door to Wu's room. His head tilted a little bit and then kept going.
As he walked around the corner I followed slowly. I didn't want him to know that I was behind him. But, I don't know how, he must have find out because I lost him. I tried to find him, he was gone.
I went up to the nurse's station and asked, "Do you know that guy that was sitting here earlier."
"No. He came in, sat dodown, and then left." She said, looking over her papers.
"He didn't have to check?"
"I assumed that he was here to check on the same patient as you." She seems sincere.
It's not like she was wrong. He looked like he was watching the room. After thanking her I went to security and asked them to keep a look-out for him and stay by his room.
Now they were watching Wu. Yet another question to add to the list of things to figure out. Why would they watch a coma Sensei who can't hurt anyone right now? Even more confusion. Great.
