Chapter 14: Daze in, daze out

The emergency room was hectic. People with swollen arms and broken legs, or in Tk's case a black, oozing chest filled the room.

Matt carried his brother inside and reluctantly gave him up to the nurse shortly. The nurse carried Tk off not allowing anyone to fallow. Instead Tai, Matt, and Kari were directed to a waiting room.

Kari twisted her fists in her oversized T-shirt nervously; she refused to answer any of Tai's questions. In fact, she hadn't spoken at all since they first left the road. Matt too was in silence. Eventually Tai let them be, and walked outside to call Joe.

Ken and Yolie were on the lakes edge, the water up to their ankles. They held each other's hands and stood face to face.

"Ken, how would you react if I splashed you right now?" Yolie asked sweetly.

Ken glanced down at her and gave his own sweet smile, "I'd have to tackle you down and make you pay."

"Pay what?" Yolie asked while slowly treading away from him.

"It's up to my own discretion," His voice was delightfully sweet and sinful.

"Is that so?" Ken nodded; Yolie then swooped up a handful of water and tossed it at him. Because of the now 10 feet difference only a few drops hit him.

Ken pretended to be insulted, "How could you?" Yolie gave a small chuckle, that was interrupted by her sudden sprint in the water. Ken was chasing after her and because of his soccer skills soon was side by side. He reached out his arm and grabbed onto Yolie, causing them both to tumble into the water.

Yolie looked straight up into Ken's eyes, he was directly on top of her, and gave a long giggle. Ken looked a little embarrassed and made a move to get up. Yolie grabbed the scruff of his shirt and didn't let him get far. "Yolie, I—"

"Shut up!"

Ken had a sullen look on his face, "What?"

"Shut up and kiss me." She repeated a little softer.

His eyes suddenly twinkling, he bent down and kissed her hard. While he explored the contents of her mouth she explored his upper body. She ran her wet hands along his supporting arms causing him to fall with all his weight onto her. She let out a gruff, causing him to break away the kiss and straighten his arms again. "I'm sorry," he apologized whole heartedly.

"Don't stop." She said, obviously ignoring his apology and dragging his mouth into hers again. After a little prodding from her, he moved his kiss down to her neck. Yolie giggled endlessly and pushed his head down and away. For a moment they just stared into each other's eyes, getting lost in the overload of emotions.

"KEN, YOLIE, WHERE ARE YOU?" Ken jumped off of Yolie as soon as he heard the voice and good timing, too, because Joe had just came into sight. "There you guys are!" He shouted across the 40 feet distance while jogging out to them.

Yolie got to her feet and together Ken and Yolie met Joe half way. "What's happening?" Yolie said, obvious concern for her friends coming into place.

"Tai called."

"OH MY GOSH, ARE THEY OK?" Yolie interrupted screaming.

"They found Tk and Kari, but things don't look so good."

"What do you mean?" Ken asked coolly but concern clearly evident.

"Well, they're alive—"

"WHY WOULDN'T THEY BE ALIVE!?!" Yolie freaked out.

"Tk's in the hospital and Kari won't talk."

"What happened to him!?!" Ken said now starting to show more emotion in his voice.

"All Tai said was that his chest was scratched and oozing black puss."

"WE HAVE TO GO SEE HIM!"

"Well, we're just waiting for you—" Yolie was already sprinting to the campsite before Joe had even finished talking. Ken fallowed after her, and Joe behind.

Tai walked back into the Hospital after talking to Joe, he went over to his sister and sat down grabbing her shaking hand in his.

"He'll be ok, Kari." Kari looked up at him with tearless eyes. Tai was shocked, why wasn't she crying? What had happened in the forest that could change her so much? She nodded her head.

Tai held onto her hand for a while later and was then shocked by loud rumble of Kari's stomach. "Kari, have you eaten at all?" she shook her head, "Not since before we left?" Kari nodded her head.

Feelings of unrest and protectiveness came over him and he jumped up and ran over to the nearest vending machine. Luckily it was a good vending machine with full meals, so he bought her a turkey sandwich and Doritos.

"Here!"

Kari accepted the food and began to scarf it down like a starved hyena. Tai was startled at the crumbs that replaced the sandwich in little than a minute.

"Do you want more?" Kari shook her head and stared worriedly at the entrance door. "The doctor will be out soon, don't worry." Kari nodded.

Tai took his attention away from his sister and looked to the other side of him, there sat his best friend. Being awake for more than 24 hours had gotten to him and his head hung over in sleep. Tai hoped it was a dreamless sleep, but by the pained expression on his face he knew it wasn't.

Tai soon realized how tired he was, too. His eyes slowly sunk down in exhaustion.
