Ryoma was placed in intensive care overnight. When he reached the hospital he fever of about 105 degrees f. That was two days ago.

His fever broke late this morning and he is to be released this afternoon.

Ryoma was still hell bent on going home and making sure it was not just a fever induced illusion that caused his to see whatever it was and the fact his mother and Nanko have not even visited rose his suspicion and fear.

"Yo, Ryoma!" Momoshiro yelled walking into the room the regulars close behind.

"Fssshhhhh...Oi peach head your disturbing the other patients" Kiado spoke a little louder then Momo had.

"You wanna fight Viper!"

"Both of you stop!" Oishi yelled causing Kikumaru to jump behind Fuji.

"Nya, Oishi is so scary" Eiji said clinging to Fuji.

Ryoma giggled lightly, taking full note that laughing would cause him to start coughing.

"Seimpai-tachi are weird." Ryoma said causing all eves to land on him.

"Ochibi~" Kickumaru ran to the boys side and gathered him in a long brotherly hug that left said boy gasping and coughing by the time Oishi pried the cat like boy away.

At that moment two elderly people walked in and smiled sadly at the boy who looked like a child on Christmas at the sight of the two.

"Obaa-chan! Pop pop!" He scrambled out of the bed to give them hugs.

The regulars looked in awe as Ryoma began to ramble on about ho much he missed them and how he never gets to see them.

The woman laughed lightly with a sad twinge to it. "Ryoma we have to talk to you, it is highly important that you understand we are not lying and you have to give us an honest answer. Your parents and Nanako-chan were found murdered at your house" she said willing tears away as the room fell silent and sad.

The man stepped up "We need you to pick who you will live with,you can come with me back to the states or go with your grandmother to England."

The room was silent and everyone stood bracing themselves for Ryoma's answer or tears.

"I-is Karupin" His voice was barley a whisper.

"I'm sorry honey" the woman stepped forward to hug her grandson. But instead just barley caught him as he passed out.

The man picked him up bridal style and lay him on the bed.

There was a sad silence when Kikumaru and Momo broke into simultaneous sobs. "Pl-please let Ochibi stay!" Kickumaru exclaimed running to said boy.

Oishi and Taka let a few tears slide and asked to let him stay as well. Even Fuji let a tear slip. Kaidoh kept his head down and let a single tear fall while Inui moved in to comfort the kid. Tezuka even dropped his poker face and let sorrow tint his eyes.

"I think we can arrange something" the woman said warmly.

With that the two left only for the man to stop and turn at the door. "Please look after him when he wakes up. Especially if we are not here"
