"Psst Hikaru, over here."
Tears stinging my eyes.
"Kaoru?" I said.
"Hikaru look at the cabinet." He said.
I looked over at the cabinet and instead of seeing my reflection I saw Kaoru. I couldn't hold in the tears anymore.
"Come on Hikaru, you have to stop James before he ruins the future."
"I...I can't, I'm too weak right now." I said.
"No your not, If I was there I would slap some freakin sense into you, you've taken worse. You've fallen out of a three story building and you're giving up just like that?" Kaoru said disappointed.
I tried to get up again, but I fell back down. "I'm so sorry." I said.
"For what?" Kaoru asked looking confused.
"I'm sorry for everything, for trying to take Haruhi, for hurting you, and for letting you die"
I started to cry harder.
Kaoru gave me a sad smile. "It's not your fault, none of it is, I'm sorry I started the fight. I love you Hikaru and please stop James before everyone else is in danger." I looked into his eyes. "I love you Hikaru."
"I love you too Kaoru, I miss you." I choked.
"I miss you too and Hey don't worry I will always be with you, even if you can't see me ok. Now go stop James." Tears rolling down his face.
"I will I promise."
"Bye Hikaru."
Tears trailed down my face harder. "Bye Kaoru." I choked.
After I said that he gave me a slight smile and waved good-bye and he was gone. I only saw my reflection again.
"I'll always miss you Kaoru, I will never forget you."
I looked back at my reflection one last time, then I tried to get up, this time I succeeded. I grabbed my shoulder and started to walk as fast as I could to where James was but when I reached him I saw him with his wife, with the cure in his hand.
"I got the cure honey now you'll no longer be sick."
"I...I don't...know. Marylyn said."
"Honey please trust me."
Marylyn hesitated then nodded.
"No!" I screamed but it was too late.
James had already injected the cure into her. Within seconds Marylyn started violently coughing and hacking.
"Don't worry honey, this only last for a bit, then you will be fine." said James.
After a bit Marylyn stopped coughing and started to calm down.
"See, better honey." James said with a smile.
But then she stopped breathing.
"Honey?"
Then her heart meter went off which indicated that her heart had stopped.
"Honey, Honey, wake up, Marylyn?!" James pleaded.
I walked up to them. "Get away from her." I warned.
James glared at me. "Don't come near me or Maryland, just go away."
"James." I said.
"Get the hell out of here!" he yelled.
I looked sadly at James as he turned back to his wife. I was about to walk over to him and then I heard a moan. I knew that moan. It was very familiar.
"Marylyn?" James asked hopefully.
Probably if you had seen the look on my face you could tell I was scared. Marylyn opened her eyes, but instead of her loving blue eyes, they dead.
"It worked". Then he turned to me. "I told you it would work." But when he saw my face he got confused.
Then Marylyn sat up. James looked over at his wife confused by how she was acting.
"Marylyn?"
Then Marylyn attacked James.
"Marylyn, what the hell? Stop!" James yelled. "Help!"
When she was about to bit him, I quickly grabbed my gun and shot Maryland in the head.
As James pushed Marylyn off the bed she fell limply to the floor. Then he looked at me in shock.
"You were right, you were right, I'm so sorry, I just didn't want to lose my wife." he said.
"I know you wanted to James, I would have probably done what you did if I was in your situation." After I said that I started to feel light headed and my legs gave out on me.
But before I could hit the ground James caught me.
"I got yah, don't worry."
I looked up at him.
"I'm sorry I stabbed you, I shouldn't have done it, you were just trying to warn me." he said.
"It's okay, if I could I would hit you right now, but let's just get out of here." I said.
He helped me up and let me lean on him while we walked towards the door. He pushed the button to open the door. When the door opened everyone ran to us.
"Hikaru you're hurt." Haruhi said in a worried tone.
"James, you put the whole country at risk and you cannot stay here. You are." Before Mr. Ootori could finish I interrupted him.
"Don't fire him." Everybody looked at me in shock.
"But he hurt you and almost made the virus happen. Why don't you want him to be fired?" Kyouya asked
"Because I get why he didn't want to stop the cure. He lost his daughter to cancer and didn't want to lose his wife to the same disease. So he tried to finish the cure to save her which only backfired. His wife died and came back started attacking him, but I shot her in the head before she could bite him. Yah I'm mad at the point that I want to strangle him. He was being stupid and made a bad mistake. I've made stupid mistakes also, but the mistake I made was totally opposite of what he did. He was helping someone, while I just did it so I could get what I wanted." I looked over at Tamaki, even though it won't happen now, I still feel bad about shooting him…. But also a little not.
"What happened to your shoulder?" Haruhi asked with concern.
"I stabbed him in the shoulder, but I am about to treat it." James said.
"Let me take a look to see how bad it is." Kyouya said as he walked up to me.
He started to examine my shoulder. "Um Hikaru?"
"Yes?"
"I don't see any stab wound."
"What?!"
I moved my hand to where my stab wound was and it was gone.
"What, but it was here just a minute ago, unless." My eyes widened, does that mean?
I quickly ran out of the room and went into the elevator and pushed the button for the lobby. When the elevator reached the lobby I quickly ran out of the building stumbling a bit and back into the forest, where I last saw Kaoru, but I when I got there the grave was still there.
"No." I whispered. "No please."
Hey guys I hope you enjoyed this chapter, sadly I only have one or two more chapter left. I am thinking of doing a prequel if I get enough reviews requesting it, but if I do make one it will be after my other story My Angel of Massachusetts. Thanks for reading and until next time.-HH1957
