"Baby steps, Hiwatari, baby steps." sighing, I glared at Ivanov out of the corner of my eye, who's arm laid resting across my shoulder to keep me up.

"You do realize I'm not in Bryan's condition, right?" I remarked, hoping to show him I didn't need help. Yeah, I was being stubborn, but hey, at least I wasn't like Tyson. Without warning, Tala's support instantly left me, and I fell forward, quickly landing on my knees and elbows. Staring wide-eyed at the floor beneath me, I took slow breaths, as to try and show the cocky red head up there that I hadn't been scared. Glaring again, when I saw his wide grin infront of my face after I'd lifted my head, he chuckled.

"Not in Bryan's condition, eh?"

"A little warning would've done some good."

"Well then, come on, stand up, ever oh-so-great, Ice Prince...I still wonder why they gave you that name, I mean wouldn't you be the Fire Prince and oh-so sexy I the title of Ice Prince?" continuing to ramble, I ignored him and felt my way up the wall, for support, as I shakily stood up. My legs literally felt like lead, and I put all my support onto the wall. Stupid Ivanov. "--and you know, I do have the more sexier eyes, and sexier ass, AND sexier nose, mouth, tongue, fingers--"

Scoffing, I couldn't help but smirk. Stupid same old Ivanov,"You know, for the current situation, you don't seem pretty worried."

He stared at me, eyes suddenly drowning in emotions, yet his facial expression, and voice tone, emotionless,"This has happened more than once, yet this was the first time in which his leg hasn't shattered." I stared, blinking. Bryan..why did he do this to himself?! "He would be in bed for months, two years at most, before his leg healed itself. Each time he does it, the wait grows longer and longer." turning his head behind him, and started walking towards the only occupied room,"He's awake. C'mon." I blinked again. How did..? Struggling, I turned my body around, slowly following, my legs lightening, although it didn't really feel like it, with each step. Finally, after what felt like hours, I reached the room, Bryan staring at me, wearily.

Struggling once more, as I didn't have a wall to support me this time, I slowly got to the chair next to Mariah, which was also next to Kuznetsov, and sat down, watching as Bryan took a deep breath. "Kai...I know you think you've caused this whole mess...But...you didn't...I...I did." I grew completely wide-eyed, I thought my eyes were going to pop out of my head! I opened my mouth to speak, but no words came out, and Bryan continued,"You see...Balcov made two diaries, each connecting to different fates of the world and person it belonged to when each entry was read. Yet he made Ray's different...I'll get to that later...But, I picked up the first diary. I didn't know, I wasn't thinking, but once somebody touches it, they're compelled to read it, whether they read two entries or one, they'll still cause destruction. Some entries are majorly corny, a lot, miserable and depressed. After reading one entry...it made me do something I didn't want to...It...it made me..kill Ian...Tala, I'm sorry.." I looked over to the redhead, who stared blankly.

"I...it wasn't your fault...don't be sorry..." he murmured, biting his lip. I turned back to Bryan, suprised to see him crying.

"Once..Once I comprehended what I did, I went back to the diary...I learned it was what it was once memories flooded back about Boris telling Kon and I about them. I kept the diary, because I knew it wasn't the one with stronger effects, I knew that you or Tyson or somebody on your team would find it, Kai...The diary I read brought the diary to where you guys where...alive, so to say. When it was wherever it was, something most likely clicked in Ray's brain, the murderer, to do whatever it took to get somebody to read it. And then...the events happened...I wanted to tell you, Kai, way back then, on what was going on...but...I never got the chance to speak, everything went so fast..." he sat up, shaking and wincing as he did so. I wanted to push him back down and tell him to stay there, but I was still registering everything he'd said. Staring at me long and hard with his lifeless, crying, eyes, I did something I didn't think he'd do. He hugged me, sobbing into my shoulder, screaming muffled apologies to everyone in the room. Hesitantly, I returned the hug, only then realizing exactly how skinny he was. Rubbing his back, I could only ask one question.

"There's a way..we can fix all of this, right?"

I hope you still like this horrid chapter in the least.
