Yumi-chan Hamano: Chapter 4! One more to go! I also changed the chapter title from 'Alive or Dead' to 'Dead or Alive'!
A LITTLE LATER.
Wolfram entered the king-room with a cold and wet cloth as Gisela had requested. Yuuri lay in bed and was unconscious. Günter sat on his knees and was praying. Gisela took the cold cloth from Wolfram and placed it on Yuuri's forehead. Wolfram held on Greta who sat at Yuuri's bed-side.
"Yuuri..." She said quietly. Wolfram hugged her from behind. She looked at him and a tear fell down her cheek. Gisela held Yuuri's hand and tried to heal him but she couldn't do anything. Conrad came in the door together with Gwendal.
"We've gotten some information from the soldier who now has recovered." Gwendal said and closed the door behind him. Yuuri woke up slightly, but nobody noticed it. Wolfram stood up and held firmly in Greta's hand.
"We got some information on what might have cause this illness." Conrad said and looked at some papers.
"We were told by the soldier when he was woken, he went with His Majesty and the 3 guards to the forest to collect those flowers..." Conrad said, looking at Wolfram who was blushing. Yuuri saw with deep closed eyes and smiled slightly.
"The guard told us that he found a flower reminiscent of a violet which was just a little Dark yellow and orange. It was just him and King Yuuri who have had contact with the flower." Gwendal said and gave the papers for Gisela. She was shocked when she saw what kind of a flower it was. Patialinu. The flower is poisonous and can lead to death, but only on small children and weak people.
"I hope His Majesty has been injured before or after the ... or else ..." Gisela said, looking down at Yuuri. Yuuri closed his eyes when he felt a pain. They all looked at him with worry. Wolfram had Yuuri's hand and held it tightly.
"Yuuri... Do not... give up." He said as he smiled slightly and sat down on his knees beside the bed. A tear rolled down Yuuri's cheek.
"Sorry... Wolf..." Yuuri said, still with a hoarse voice. Wolfram's smile disappeared when he saw the tear. Gisela and Greta looked a little worried on them.
"Yuuri ..?" Wolfram asked and noticed that Yuuri's hand was colder. Günter stopped praying and stood up.
"Gisela!" He yelled as let go of his hand and stood up.
"Yuuri's hand ... It has been colder ...!" He shouted again, and it startled her and the others. Gisela hurried to Yuuri's hand and placed his hands on his chest. A light came out but nothing happened with Yuuri. The light disappeared suddenly and Gisela fell to her knees. Günter hurried over to her.
"Are you okay Gisela?" He asked worried and helped her up and stand on her legs.
"Yes, Father. But..." She said and looked at Yuuri. Wolfram looked at her and waited for an answer.
"... I didn't manage to rescue His Majesty's life..." She said and shed tears as she looked down. Conrad was shocked by the news. Greta began to cry. Wolfram went to bed while he was in shock.
"Yuuri? You promised that we would go on a long trip with Greta ... didn't you?" He asked and sat on the bed and leaned over Yuuri. One tear fell from Wolfram's cheek, down onto Yuuri's.
"... And when you gave me those flowers ... Yes... I'm so crazy in love with you. More than I ever have ... You made me so happy ..." Because of this, he had everyone looked at him. Greta had tears all over her face. Conrad also had a little frown.
"... You also said that you promised me you would not leave me ..." Wolfram said and smiled a little. But soon became upset again and closed eyes in order to loosen the tears in his eyes.
"… Do not... Do not leave anyone... It makes them sad... Yuuri... It makes me sad..." Wolfram said, and lowered his head and kissed Yuuri on the lips lightly and quietly. More tears fell down Wolfram's cheek as he raised his head again.
"Come on... Let Yuuri rest in peace ..." Conrad said and grabbed Wolfram and pulled him away from the bed.
"NO!" Wolfram shouted with tears in his eyes and reached out for Yuuri.
"YUURIIIIIIIIIIIIII!" He shouted. A sudden a light came out of Yuuri and gave everyone in the room a little push back. The light dazzled them and made them to close the eyes. Yuuri still felt pain, but worse than before. He felt torn. Suddenly, the light disappeared and everyone opened their eyes again. Yuuri raised himself up in the bed and looked at them. Wolfram saw shocked to see Yuuri. So did everyone. Greta ran to him and jumped up to him. Yuuri was shocked at first, and then hugged her. But just after, Günter took her off of him. Wolfram was first to recover but only stared at Yuuri.
"Yuuri...?" He asked and joy-tears fell down his cheek. Yuuri got up from bed and spread his arms. Wolfram jumped into his arms with a lot of joy, tears and smiled a lot. They both laughed with joy. Conrad stood up and smiled, wiping away a tear. Gwendal discovered he almost shed a tear himself, he hurried and wiping it away before anyone can see.
"I thought you were dead!" Wolfram said, looking into Yuuri's eyes and smiled a sad smile. Yuuri looked away with a little smile.
"I was too... But..." He said and looked at Wolfram again.
"But you saved me ... Thank you ..." He added, smiling. Wolfram smiled widely and kissed Yuuri on the lips. Yuuri blushed, closed his eyes and enjoyed the moment. All stared at them and made their faces look like someone who watched TV.
"Wolf ..." Yuuri said just after Wolfram had let him and pointed at the others who stood and stared at them, Günter, Greta, Gwendal, Conrad, and Gisela. Wolfram looked at them and blushed. Yuuri smiled and looked at them.
