The doctors just managed to save Yuki before his heart completely gave out, and vanished from this world. Yuki was in a new room, with big machines helping him breath, and providing water and a food substance for him to live. Yuki's hands were bound to the bed, as were his stomach and legs. Hatori, Shigure, and Ayame sat there in silence holding each others hands tightly. Yuki had little suckers attached to his bear chest, tracking his heart rate along with blood pressure, and tracking his vitals. A tub was placed in his neck.

"He was doing so well…" Ayame said in a whisper.

"Aya…." Hatori said back, not looking at Ayame.

"How was I so bind? Blind to see it was all an act?"

"Ayame, the bond you made with Yuki wasn't an act. But- but pretending that he was getting better was… We knew he was the verge, we did nothing… He hid how he really was behind his mask. He would have got up even if I hadn't disconnected him. I hoped to give him a little freedom with all the tubes- but I was wrong." Hatori said gravely.

Shigure looked at his side to see the picture of Yuki, trying to hold the giant lollypop, while Shigure was helping Yuki hold it. Shigure sighed and turned his head away from the picture. "We are the worst family ever." Shigure said with his head cast down. Ayame and Hatori looked up from the ground and looked at Shigure. "We live in fear, letting a fake god- Akito run this family. Ruining the lives that don't need to killed- and we let Yuki suffer alone. We let Akito hurt Yuki, and we all play apart. The curse doesn't help in the least." They all sighed in agreement and listened to the beeping of the machines.

"When will Yuki wake up?" Ayame asked.

"Not for some time…. We sedated him to sleep for along time. It's not like he could do anything even if we woke up anyway…. We could slowly stop the med so he could wake up though…"

"Would it be right to ask that?" Ayame said downcast.

"Not at all…. It has been six hours now." Hatori broke the held hands, and adjusted Yuki's med.

Many hours latter Yuki started to slowly wake up. All the men looked up startled by the muffled grown from Yuki. They watched Yuki, not wanting to overwhelm him with faces and movement. Yuki tried to move his arm, but found it restrained. Yuki started to panic, and began to moved his legs and torso; also finding them restrained. Hatori ran to Yuki's side ready to calm down the frightened patient. "YUKI STOP, I'M HERE YUKI, IT'S HATORI" Yuki was looking at Hatori with horror stricken eyes shaking. "Yuki, shhhhh. You have a tube in your thought, so don't talk ok? Your on life support, everything with be fine." Yuki thinking Hatori was Akito

Yuki thinking Hatori was Akito became enraged; not liking at all what Hatori had said, struggled again to break the bounds that held him to the bed. Yet with no prevail. Ayame and Shigure ran to the side of the bed were Hatori stood. Yuki's eyes instantly filled up with hate and rage. The men were all taken back with the sudden hate and anger from Yuki. Yuki tipped his head back gritting his teeth. He was struggling violently; causing his heart rate to go up greatly. Hatori grabbed Yuki's chin and held it firmly. "You will stop, and calm down right now." Hatori said in a firm and aggressive tone. At this remark, Yuki managed to come up with a huge amount of saliva and spit right in Hatori's face. Ayame and Shigure gave a gasp in surprise and covered their mouths; watching Hatori wipe off the saliva on his face. Hatori looked at Yuki, with great anger. Yuki gave a small smug smile. "Your done Yuki!" Hatori yelled and pulled a gag out of the upper cupboard and with struggle; attached it to Yuki. "I will sedate you again if you don't right this second calm down right now!" Yuki stopped and laid quietly on his back with still an anger look in his eyes, with his brow down. Still thinking it was Akito.

"Ummm Har'i.. you have some…" Aya pointed to his own side of his chin. Hatori wiped off the spit and slumped in a chair tired, covering his eyes adjusted.

"No one touch him." Hatori said still covering his eyes.

Ayame looked at Yuki with a sad face. Yuki looked his brother still frowning and started to move his hand making sighs. Aya watched Yuki's hand move fast. He looked at Yuki who was now had annoyed look on his face. Ayame backed up and walked to Hatori. "You OK?" Aya asked worried.

"Yea, yea I'm fine. It's just he's gone off the deep end." Hatori sighed. "He might be lost to us for along time though. I think he thought I was Akito….."

( much time has passed )

A doctor came in to see how Yuki was doing. He looked at the men who were sleeping clustered together, like a litter of puppy's trying to keep warm. The doctor smiled and looked over at Yuki. He jumped slightly when he saw Yuki give him a complete evil eye. He walked to Yuki with a questioning look of why he had a gag on. "I'm going to take out your neck tub Yuki, you wont be able to talk for a little bit, but we give you some tea and you will be talking in no time. He whispered so to not wake the men sleeping on Ayame's bed. He gave a smile that made Yuki relax. The doctor put the bed in a sitting position, and making Yuki comfy still restrained. He took off the gag and instructed Yuki to open his mouth. Yuki opened his mouth and after a moment, the doctor got the tube out. The doctor gave Yuki a mint and then left the room for a big blanket to put over the three sleeping men. He then made sure Yuki was restrained again and left. Yuki thought to himself. One way or another, even if I have to break there trust, I will die. No matter how much it hurts the people I love.

Yuki had fallen asleep sitting upright, but not at all getting any rest. Yuki was having a nightmare of his past, and the monitors caught it. The monitors went off loudly; causing the three men to sit upright fast simultaineously. Untangling from the blanket and stumbling to stand, they all ran to Yuki who was moving the best he could through the restraints. Yuki's face showed great distress and his head tossing itself to the side, his chest heaving greatly; tears about to overload onto his face. The heart monitor showed he was by far in stress. Ayame shook Yuki violently. "WAKE UP, WAKE UP, WAKE UP YUKI!" Ayame screamed. Yuki's eyes opened wide and he let out a loud long screechy scream, tossing his head back. Yuki was throwing himself in complete panic, finding he was still restrained. The men undid his restates fast, causing Yuki to hunch over gasping and screaming in pain. "I'm here Yuki, I'm here." Shigure said kindly. Shigure held Yuki to the bed. "Yuki, it was a nightmare, just a nightmare. We are here, no need to be afraid anymore OK?" Shigure said trying to calm Yuki down. Yuki started to calm down and reached his hand to Shigure's arm and held tightly. A scared expression was still frozen on Yuki's face shaking.

"Yuki? You with us?" Yuki cast his eyes to Hatori, and shook his head no. Yuki tried to talk but all that came out was a painful cracking whisper. Yuki stopped in shock holding his through, his voice sounded nothing like he had ever herd before. He held his throat looking at Hatori shocked.

"The doctor must have took out the tube, not to worry Yuki." Hatori said with a small smile. Yuki nodded and laid back trying to relax.

"Yuki?" Ayame said wondering how Yuki was really feeling. "Can we get you anything?" Yuki looked at Ayame wondering how stupid he really was. I can't talk, how does he really think I can tell him what I want? Yuki thought. He gave Ayame a raised eyebrow and looked at Hatori. Yuki sat up and started to sigh language to Ayame. Ayame just stood there not understanding a thing, but was entranced in Yuki's hand movements.

"Yuki." Hatori said, getting Yuki's attention. Hatori started to sign to Yuki. Yuki smiled and signed. "Can I have something for my sore throat?"

"Of corurse you can, let me find something that you will like." Hatori said.

Thanks- Yuki stopped, didn't know how to sigh Hatori, So he spelled out the letters to his name and started over. Thanks H.A.T.O.R.I

"Your welcome Y.U.K.I" Hatori spelled back.

"How do you to know sigh language?" Shigure ask.

"I took it for fun in high school, and decided to learn more about it." Hatori replied.

"How does Yuki know?" Ayame ask.

Hatori looked at Yuki, signed to me and I'll tell them. Hatori said. Yuki began sighing to Hatori. "He says he got bored one day at home and got the idea of learning sigh language for fun."

"That's so cool!" Ayame said happily. He looked at Yuki, and Yuki sighed a new sigh. "What?" Aya said hoping his brother would make it easy for him to understand what he was trying to say.

Yuki pointed to his brother and sighed Snake. "Snake?" Aya said with hope that he got it. Yuki nodded with a smile. "Do Shigure!" Aya said happily like a little kid. Yuki sighed dog and then dragon with just letters. "Wow Yuki I didn't know you could do that!" Aya said with a hug smile. Yuki nodded and watched Hatori leave to get something for Yuki's throat. Yuki pointed to himself and sighed rat. An awkward tension came in the room and Yuki looked down sad.

"Yuki….. You are you. Not an animal. You're my brother." Yuki continued to looked down at his lap. I know what I did. I know they remember. Why are they acting like nothing has happened?" Yuki thought.

Hatori came back in and came into the room feeling all the tension in the room. He handed Yuki the meds, and Yuki took them gratefully. Yuki looked around the room at the concerned faces and looked down afraid. Shigure put his hand on Yuki's shoulder but Yuki pulled away. "Look Yuki….. We – we can't leave you alone anymore….. You have been put on Suicide watch, and will be watched at all time." Hatori said in a professional voice.

Yuki looked up with (pear) pleading look eclipse his face. Yuki shook his head no fast coving his face. Yuki looked up at the men and sighed. Your all sick, you are just like A.K.E.T.O. Your all just like him. You like to watch me suffer. Hatori's turned angered and signed back.

We are helping you, so don't you sign or look at us with hate. You will thank us one day.

When I'm dead I might Yuki signed back with and unimpressed look.

"Watch him! I'm going out for a smoke!" Hatori said in raged and slammed the Yuki's hospital door.

"Why did Har'i sigh to Yuki even though he could talk to him? He can hear…." Aya said dumbfounded.

"I don't think he wants us to know what Yuki, sighed to us….." Shigure said looking at Yuki.

Yuki watched every move the men made, and made sure to think of a plain to leave.
