Hashami awoke next when she felt the pain reappear and sat up. She frowned when she didn't see Hanabusa and saw that it was dark out.
Hashami stood up and left the room looking for Hanabusa. She walked down a slightly lit up hall until she heard a girls voice. The girl froze and hid behind a wall before listening in.
"I think my prank upset the other students, they all hate me now"
"I'm sure if you apologize they'll forgive you"
'What is Yukki doing here?'
A hand wrapped around Hashami's mouth and pulled her struggling body into a room.
"Shh" a familiar male voice demanded.
The hand released the girl and she turned, ready to yell, when her voice caught in her throat.
There, stood Ichiru.
Hashami's eyes widened and she covered her mouth. She reached out with her free hand and glided her fingers on his cheek. Tears filled her eyes and she hugged the older, crying softly in relief that the boy was alive.
She wasn't worried that Zero would die, but she was afraid that Ichiru's body would fail.
"You're alive" she breathe, "thank God you're alive"
Arms slowly wrapped around her lithe form and a chin laid on her head. Small droplets of salty water landed in her eyes and the two siblings cried as they hugged each other.
