Mamori: Okay, Kisara. Do you have it all done, yet?
Kisara: Not quite all done. But soon.
Mamori: You better be correct.
Kisara: After that small vacation, yeah. I'm continuing. I do not own the characters except for Kaitlyn. The characters belong to their rightful owners. Gomenasai for the very late update.
Previously… Kaitlyn went back to the hospital and now staying there until she gets better. Meanwhile the team becomes 'crippled' for a mysterious reason.
Chapter 7 An Unexpected Death
"What is going on here? Hiruma! Explain why the team is broken and crippled!" Kaitlyn screamed at the top of her lungs. After Kaitlyn yelled at them, she started to have a coughing fit. Suzuna and Mamori walked over to her and tried to calm her down. After a while of trying to calm her down, Mamori turned to face the team.
"Don't you think you played this prank on her today? Take those bandages off and wash off those marks. We wanted it to be a small joke, but it's kind of hard to see it as a joke, when she worries about all of you this much," Mamori stated strongly in her motherly voice. All the boys looked at what had happened, they saw her skin paler than usual. They gave Mamori and Suzuna a hurtful look then changed their facial expressions to an apologetically look at Kaitlyn. Kaitlyn was huffing and puffing as she tried to catch her breath and saw they all gave her an apologetic look.
"Mamori give me my inhaler, please. I am not able to breathe correctly any more," Kaitlyn asked in a weak voice. Suzuna slowly and carefully laid her down and Mamori did the favor that was asked of her. The boys did as they were told by Mamori, as that all went on. After they did their jobs that were given to them, someone knocked on the door. Kaitlyn starred at the door for a couple of minutes. Sena walked to the door and answered it. More people were standing outside of the room; Coach Apollo and the American team, that Hiruma's team played against entered the room.
"Oh, Panther-kun. What are you guys still doing in Japan?" Sena asks surprised that they are still in Japan.
"Well, we heard about Hiruma's little sister being very sick," Panther explains. Hiruma walks to the window and sits on the window sill. 'Even though he is acting like he doesn't care, he really does. I think he's very thankful for the support he gets from his friends that he, himself has made during this year.' Kaitlyn thought at that moment.
"How did you hear about Kaitlyn being in the hospital?" Mamori asked them curiously. She gave them a confused expression. Panther showed her the note they had gotten from Suzuna. She quickly read the note, and looked straight at Suzuna. Hiruma saw this and gave Suzuna a death glare. Kaitlyn sighed out of pity for the poor girl, and turned to thank the American team. She graciously thanked them and laid back down. Soon after that she fell asleep. Everyone crowded her room and talked a bit. After about an hour of chatting with each other, the heart monitor detected a flat line. Hiruma sat straight up still not showing any emotion but started panicking on the inside.
"Ladies, lets leave the room so the doctors can come in and check up on her," Hiruma said as he walked out the door. Mamori silently followed and Suzuna had a very worried look on her face as she kept looking back at Kaitlyn's body. Everyone slowly walked out. They all had sorrowful looks on their faces. They all watched the doctors and nurses rush into the room, but after about ten minutes, they came out and told everyone that they can go back into the room. As everyone walked in with solemn facial expressions, they saw her sitting up and breathing normally. Most of them sighed in relief, but Hiruma was ticked off.
"What is it, Yoichi nii?" Kaitlyn asked in a tone that said she was tired but tried to keep a peaceful atmosphere. She looked at him with expectant eyes that waited for an explanation. After a couple of seconds, Sena cleared his throat and everyone looked at him expectantly.
"Kaitlyn, we thought you just died. What happened?" Sena asked a little shyly. Kaitlyn looked around the room, and just shrugged. She looked down at her hands which intertwined with each other.
"Honestly, I'm not sure myself. I mean, I know I died, as my soul tried to leave my body, I heard everyone rushing in to preserve my life. I don't remember much after that," Kaitlyn explained as she recalled the events that had just happened in her perspective. She noticed Suzuna had a small stream of tears running down her face, and Mamori looked like she was about to cry along with her. Suzuna couldn't take it anymore and walked up to the bed, wiping the tears away and hugged Kaitlyn, who was surprised by her sudden actions. Soon after Suzuna let go of her everyone else gave her a small hug, including Hiruma Yoichi. Which shocked everyone besides, Kurita, Mamori, Musashi, and Doburoku-sensei. 'So he does have a heart. Then why does he put on an act in public to make it look like he's cold-hearted to everyone?' Monta thought to himself. He shrugged off the thought and put to the side for later questioning to Hiruma. After the hugging fest, Kaitlyn asked if she had to stay here for another few weeks. Mamori shook her head to notify her that she is staying here for as long as the doctors say that she needs to stay there.
"So, Homer-kun, and Panther-kun, are you coming up with certain ideas to make your special tactic stronger?" Kaitlyn asks to break the truth-binding silence. She looked at them with a small smile. Both boys answered her with their own smiles and nodded their heads.
