Chapter Eight: The Hospital

Mokuba came back after lunch (and after doing some other business since Kaiba took the day off) and heard ambulances and cars blazing to Domino General Hospital.

"Seto?" Mokuba asked as he went into the apartment. Kaiba woke up again with a start at the sound of his brother's voice. He went back to sleep for 5 minutes after he felt something inside saying something was wrong.

"Whats going on?" Kaiba's voice had a little bit of concern in it as he got off the couch.

"I was going to ask you that as well." Mokuba said and smiled slightly. Kaiba smiled slightly as well and looked out the window to see cop cars a few blocks away.

"Seto I think someone got hit. Theres a small clutch there." Mokuba said as he pointed to small clutch in the middle of the road.

Just then Tea called Mokuba. "Hello? Yes Tea what is it? She hasn't come yet? Are you sure? No we don't know. Did you hear the cop cars? No…no she wouldn't be... Go check by the scene to make sure and call me when you know. Thanks bye."

Mokuba hung up and looked back out the window.

No please. Kaiba begged. Not her. He thought about overhearing her convo with Tea. She said she would be there at 7:30pm and its 8:00pm now. Then Kaiba looked out again and heard Tea's scream and saw Mai and Serenity crying.

Lily he thought before going on his knees shaking.

"Seto? Whats wrong?" Mokuba asked with concern. Kaiba couldn't respond.

"Seto please say…" And his phone rang.

Over the phone Kaiba heard Tea's hysterical voice. "It's her! Lily got hit! Her phone and everything is in here! Oh my god!"

Mokuba heard Tea's cries before he hung up. Kaiba was still shaking but his voice was low and serious. "Mokuba listen closely. I want you to find the scum who did this! Get all of our best men to look for him or her! I don't care if it takes all night…" He turned to Mokuba with his eyes watering. "We'll find this person."

Mokuba, who was starting to cry, nodded and left. Kaiba got her picture and looked at it.

"Lily please stay strong." He said as he closed his necklace. He then wrote a quick note to Mokuba.

Mokie, I'm visiting her. I think Domino General Hospital. Don't follow me, please. I need to do this alone. Page me if you find anything out. Thanks, Seto. He put the note on the table and ran out of the building to see her.

"Please you can't do this! I'm Seto Kaiba and I need to see Lillian Samaya!" He said angrily at the doctors at the hospital.

"Mr. Kaiba please, we need to operate on her." The doctor told him

"Is she going to…?"

"Time will only tell. But for now she's in critical condition. She has a concussion and she has a broken arm and bruises and scratches." The doctor left the room and Kaiba went to the lobby and hung his head.

Please Lily. Please stay strong. He thought. Tears started coming down when his phone rang.

"Hello?" He said in a serious voice.

"Seto, its Mokuba. Listen we found the man who did it."

"Who?"

"Kazan Saukuray. He wasn't under the influence. He was doing it for the joy of it. He did a few hit and runs before remember?" Kaiba tried to think back about other events but Lily was just in his head.

"Yes." He lied.

"Well the good thing is that Kazan will get 30 years minimum but since he did so many he'll be there for life."

"Good, let that scum bag rot in jail."

"Did you get any news about Lily?"

"The doctors won't let me see her. They said she's in critical condition." Kaiba's voice was cracking.

"She'll be ok Seto. Shes strong."

Kaiba didn't respond. He hung up the phone after the doctor came in.

"Well is she ok?" Kaiba asked with concern.

"Shes ok." The doctor said. "However the concussion knocked her out and we don't know if she'll wake up."

"Can I see her?"

"We don't allow friends to visit this late."

"But I'm her best friend and I need to see her. Her parents died long ago and she's an only child. Please." He never felt this much compassion for a human before in his life, except for Mokuba.

"Fine you may go. Go on the left. Room 88." Kaiba nodded and went into the room.

He closed the door slightly and turned to see her. Her hair was out of place and her face had a scratch on the right side of her cheek. He noticed her arm in a white cast. He looked closely to see her breathing. She was and he sighed. He turned to the small bedside table and found her clutch, which was a little bloodstained and dirty, and opened it. He found her phone, a compact and a picture of her (she looked to be about 7-8) in the arms of her mother who had blonde hair and sapphire blue eyes getting kissed on the cheek by a man who had midnight black hair and green eyes. The parents looked paler than Lily but the three were happy and healthy. Kaiba put the picture back into her clutch and turned to Lily. He sat on the small chair next to her bed and took her non-broken hand into his shaking ones.

A/N: So what's going to happen now? Will Lily survive? Will she not make it in time? Will Kaiba finally admit his feelings for her?
