I hope this story is going to gain a few readers, cause it is one of my first tries on a somehow sadder story, if you know what I mean. Anyway, read and review!
"Are they ever going to wake up?" Max asks Rei. Rei looks up, his face wrinkled up in worry and he sighs. "I don't know. I really don't know." He looks at the two other boys in the hospital chamber.
Max frowns and balls his fist. "Why?" He asks. A small tear finds his way down his cheek and he closes his eyes. "Why?" He yells, banging with his fist on the wall, shocking Rei.
"Max, calm down. That is not going to wake them up." Kenny tries. But it looks like Max didn't hear them. "Then what is going to wake them up? I want to know. What in this world is going to wake them up!" Max bangs the wall again, successfully hurting his hand while he does it. Tears are falling freely from his eyes.
Rei closes his eyes and walks to his friend. He takes Max in a big embrace and keeps him close to his body. "Calm down Maxie. It is going to be alright. They will wake up, they will." He says, but deep down in his heart he knows that what he is saying is far from the truth.
And Max knows it too. And so do Kenny and Hilary.
Max has stopped his yelling and is now softly crying in Rei's embrace. "Why Rei?" He asks with his voice so soft, you can barely hear it. "Why did it happen? Was there no other way? Why did they both..." He stops his sentence, to afraid to speak the words. Rei hug him even closer.
"I don't know. Tyson... Tyson was standing there; totally unaware of what was going on. But who could have known?" Rei looks at the Dragoon holder in the white hospital bed, still unconscious. "And Kai... I don't know. He noticed it, to late of course. But he tried. Max he tried. Without him there would have bin nothing left of Tyson."
Max break free from Rei's embrace and starts to cry loudly again. "But now there are both unconscious! And there may be a chance that they will never open their eyes again!" He yells.
Rei feels his own tears falling and he quickly wipes them away. He looks to Kai, who is lying in the bed next to Tyson's, in the same room.
'He looks even paler.' He realizes. 'Is that because of the white sheets? Or is it of something else?' Rei can't even think clearly right now.
All he knows is that two of his best friends are lying in that room, unconscious, and they will probably never open their eyes again.
Kenny gets up and walks tot he glass that separates them from Kai and Tyson.
"Don't you guys wonder... why Kai did it?" He asks. Rei, Max and Hilary all look up, towards him. "What do you mean?" Hilary asks, she seems the only one who can think straight now.
Kenny sighs and takes a deep breath. "Don't you wonder, why Kai run towards Tyson, and tried to save him?" He asks. "Kai must have seen that it was murderous. He must have seen it. But why did he try to save Tyson, when he must have known it?"
Hilary frowns. "You're right." She says. Max wipes away his tears and looks at her. "And what do you mean?" He asks, his voice sounding creaky.
Hilary turns to him. "They love each other." She says. Max blinks and sniffs. "You mean...?" Hilary nods.
Max frowns again. "That isn't going to wake them up!" He yells. Rei grabs him again and hugs him again.
Suddenly Kenny shakes his head. "Guys... aren't your Bitbeast the special Bitbeasts?" he asks. Max and Rei look up and nod. "They are… but I don't see what this has to do with anything?" Rei says.
Kenny moves his glasses up his nose. "Well… This may sound crazy… But maybe, if we lay their Bitbeasts next to them, they will help them wake up." He says. "Do you think that is a good idea?"
Max blinks. "Kenny! You're the best!" He suddenly yells, before grabbing Dragoon and Dranzer out of Kenny's bag and running into the hospital room.
Kenny smiles. 'I really hope this is going to work.' He thinks.
