Axel and Roxas arrive at the hospital with Sora and Riku within 10 minutes. They were lucky that they hadn't been farther from the beach. The doctors immediately took Sora and Riku away, leaving Riku and Axel to wait impatiently in the waiting room.
Roxas just kept pacing, while Axel sat down, his head hanging in his hands. Roxas looked like he was going to burst out crying any second and Axel was trying not to. They were the only people in the waiting room, so they didn't have to worry about making a scene.
"Roxas, I'm sure they'll be fine."
"But you don't know that! They could die or be hurt horribly or…" Roxas continued to rant to himself while pacing.
In another room Riku and Sora were fast asleep. Riku blearily opened his eyes, wondering where he could be, but then it all came crashing back. The cliff, what Kairi said, how they had fallen. Riku looked next to him and saw Sora also there fast asleep. Riku smiled a small smile before falling back to sleep.
Back in the waiting room Roxas and Axel had both gotten the news that Riku and Sora were alright, they just needed their sleep. With this news they both relaxed, and started to try to piece together what had happened. While discussing their theories they remembered that Kairi was supposed to be with them on that trip and that maybe she had some answers.
"Hello?"
"Kairi its Roxas. Hey you were on the trip with Riku and Sora, do you know what happened to the both of them?"
"No I don't but whatever happened to them I'm sure they got what they deserved."
"What?"
"You heard me."
"Okay well I am going to go." Roxas hung up before he could get a response.
"Axel I think that whatever happened to those two, Kairi had a big part in it." He said to Axel.
Before they could continue the doctor came in. "Roxas and Axel? One of your friends is awake." They followed the doctor into the room to see not just one but both Riku and Sora awake and talking.
"Sora, Riku, what happened to you two?"
"Well we had a big confrontation with Kairi about you know, coming out of the closet. She freaked out. I went up the cliff and it started storming then I almost feel off but Riku caught me and saved me. Then we woke up here." Sora explained.
"I'm just glad to see both of you guys alright." Axel said.
"So are we." Riku answered before he took Sora's hand. If Axel or Roxas were surprised they hid it well.
"Not that I know you two are alright, I have something to discuss with Kairi." Roxas said, starting to walk out of the room.
"Roxas…" Axel said warily.
"Don't worry Axel, I'm only going to talk to her." He said before leaving.
Needless to say Kairi wasn't in school for a month.
