Chapter 12: Another Loss (Short Chapter)

"I'm so sorry Mr. Awayuki, we've done all that we could," the doctor let out a guilty, stressful sigh.

"W..what do you mean," Kaoru stuttered.

All the doctor did in response was shake his head and apologize again before turning the other direction to walk away.

"No, this can't be happening," Mayune shrieked in frustration and fear. "This cannot be happening! Unforgivable, unforgivable, unforgivable!" Nastue pulled her daughter in to an embrace, while she herself was trying to fight back the pain.

Everyone else was in shock, they couldn't believe what their ears have heard. The younger knights were balling up in tears, while the older knights were trying to hold back the tears.

Hayate fell to his knees, wanting to scream and punch a hole in the floor right in front of him. 'This can't be happening... How can we lose her so shortly after we got her back? I haven't even gotten a chance to tell her..'

Mannen watched Hayate's tears overflow on his face. Hayate looked so desperate when the salty tears stained the skin on his face.

"D*MN IT ALL!" Hayate punched a crack in the tile floor.

"Hayate, calm down," Sasame put his hands on his older brother's shoulders. "No Sasame... I can't lose her another time. Not another time!"

Hayate stood up on both feet and ran for the exit.

The knights just stood and watched the hurt Wind Knight dash down the stairs to the outside court year where no one was watching. He transformed in to his battle uniform and took off in the sky faster than lightning striking the earth's crusted ground.

"Guys.. I think we should follow Hayate," Sasame broke the silence over the other knights.

"But how about Himeno," Shin wept.

"I think Fenrir has to do something about Himeno's cause of death."

"And Hayate's going out to seek revenge," Goh yelled.

"Exactly.."

Hajime tugged on Sasame's arm. "But we need a Pretear to defeat the new Fenrir!"

"This isn't no ordinary Princess of Disastor like we've fought in the past. She may have lost power from the recent battle or gained more power over Himeno's death."

"So you're saying there's a chance if we try to revive Himeno, Fenrir will lose power," Kei choked out his question.

"If my predictions are correct.. we can bring Himeno back."

"Then we should have no time to lose," Mannen started running towards the exit.

"Mannen," Goh yelled after him.

"We should go, Hayate may need help with this one. Hajime, Shin, stay here and do everything you can to feed leafe to Himeno's body. We can only count on you boys for now."

Sasame rushed behind Mannen and Kei followed through while Goh was lost, not knowing what to do.

"Are you coming or not Goh," Kei yelled across the hall.

Goh flinched and raced towards the others, "Coming!"
