Shigure's POV
I was still humming high school girl when I opened my eyes.
The light had turned red when I had my eyes closed and what's worse than that is there was a girl right in front of me!
I slammed on the brakes as hard as I could, but it didn't help.
I heard a sickening scream from that girl and then a thud.
"Oh no, oh no. Did I kill her, did I really kill a girl with Hatori's car?" I asked myself worriedly as I quickly got out in the pouring rain and ran over to her side.
She was soaking wet and she had blood running down her side and her chest.
There was so much blood that it was being swept up in the sewer drain nearby along with rain.
"Okay, think, just think Shigure. Get a hold of yourself. Maybe there's a chance that she's not dead. Maybe she's still alive!" I said, trying to calm myself down after seeing her get hit.
"Shigure!? So you did it! I knew that Hatori wouldn't be that stupid to hit a girl! I'm gonna kill you for what you did!" I heard Hatsuharu yelling at me as he went black while running towards me.
"Wait! Calm down maybe she's still alive! Hatsuharu! Are you listening to me!?" I yelled to him as I dodged him as he threw a strong punch at me.
"I don't care! I'm going to kill you for doing this! You should have been watching the road!" He yelled at me as he kicked me in the side.
"Ugh!" I grunted as I landed on the other side of the road.
I quickly got up and blocked his next kick.
"We don't have time for this! I have to get her back to the house so Hatori can look at her! We'll finish this later!" I yelled at Hatsuharu as he stopped and went back to white.
"Fine. We will finish this later." He said angrily without looking at me.
He ran over to the girl and carefully picked her up and ran over to Hatori's car.
"Well are you going to open the door or not?" Hatsuharu asked me with his arms full.
"Right." I said as I dashed and opened the door and then I closed it and I got in the drivers seat.
Hatsuharu's POV
I layed the girl down on the backseat, once she was laying down I carefully picked her head up and sat down and buckled up while gently setting her head on my lap.
Then I shrugged out of my jacket that I always wear and draped it over her so that it covered her body.
Shigure was all ready driving fast through the empty, cold, and lonely streets.
I looked down at the girl.
She had short dark brown hair just like Yuki; her face was cut and bruised up, she was cut up bad on her face, but that's not what worried me the most on her face.
There was blood running down her eyes, she had long, deep gashes across her eyes.
"Shigure! Hurry up!" I yelled worriedly at him.
"I am! How's she doing?" He asked me sadly while focusing on driving.
I checked her pulse, it was very weak and her breathing was raspy, like she couldn't breathe right.
"Not good… Her pulse is pretty weak and she's having trouble breathing." I told him while getting my cell phone out.
"Oh no, well I'm going as fast as I can without breaking the speeding limit. Hey! Who are you calling at a time like this?" He asked me once he saw I had my cell phone out and I was dialing a number.
"Yuki." I replied emotionlessly to him as I put my cell phone up to my ear.
Ring, ring, ring, come on, Yuki, please pick up I thought to myself as the rings just kept going on.
"Hello? Hatsuharu?" I heard Yuki say as his voice came on the line.
"Yuki? Is Hatori at the house?" I asked him urgently.
"Yes, why? Is something wrong, Hatsuharu?" He asked me.
"Yeah, Shigure hit a girl with Hatori's car. She's still alive, but she won't be for very long if she doesn't get medical attention right away." I said sadly as I looked down at her.
"What!? Are you serious!?" Yuki gasped out loud, shocked.
"Yeah, anyway we're bringing her to the house right now. So tell everyone to not get in Hatori's way. If anyone does she could die. Remember Yuki it's a matter of life and death here, I'm serious Yuki. Don't get into any fights with Kyo." I said sternly.
Yuki's POV
"Y-yes. I understand." I said a little shaky as I hung up the phone.
"Who was that, Yuki? Did something happen?" Hatori asked me as he walked towards me hastily when he saw the expression on my face.
"Y-yeah, something's wrong, Hatori. Shigure hit a girl with your car while coming home from the high school. Hatsuharu's with him, and they're coming here. She's still alive and they want you to save her." I said while I looked up at him.
"What!? Well for Shigure's sake I hope that she's still alive once they get here. In the meantime I'll start getting things set up for her arrival." He said surprised and then walked away.
"Torhu! Kyo! I need you both right now!" He yelled out and then they both came running.
He explained to them what had happened and Kyo got mad and worried at the same time while Torhu was really worried.
"Shigure you are such an idiot! I'm going to kill you if she dies!" Kyo said angrily.
"Kyo, I think Hatsuharu's all ready claimed that." I said to him.
Knowing him he has all ready tried to kill Shigure I thought to myself.
"Oh no! I hope she's okay! I'll help you set up Hatori!" Torhu exclaimed with a worried look on her face.
"I'll help you, too." I said and we went upstairs and started setting stuff up that he was going to use.
Hatsuharu's POV
I looked out the window and I noticed that we were a lot closer to Shigure's house now.
Hang on, come on just hang on a little longer I thought to the girl as I looked down at her shattered form.
Will they make it in time to save her? Please review and if tell me in your review if you think they will make it in time or not to save her.
