"If it is something serious, you don't want to get in the way." Reborn continued. "While we wait, we're going to discus how we could attack the enemy."
~With Addison~
"Sit here, I'll be right back." Dr. Shamal said as he took Addison into a small room and left. Addison looked around the glossy white room as she took a seat in the chair that sat in the corner.
'God, I hate hospitals.' Addison thought just as Dr. Shamal came back into the room.
"Don't move, I need to take a blood sample." Dr. Shamal extended her arm and stuck a needle into her. Addison sat there silently waiting for him to finish. After about a minute, Dr. Shamal removed the needle and placed a small piece of cotton on the spot where the needle was.
"Alright, I'll have the results by the end of the day." Dr. Shamal smiled.
"Can I go back?" Addison asked, even though she had already stood up and started for the door.
"I don't know if y. . ." he was cut off.
"I'm going back." Addison walked out of the room and headed towards Tsuna's.
"Can I at least get a small x-ray first?"
Dr. Shamal got an x-ray and Addison left the hospital.
~Tsuna's~
Everyone stopped talking when they heard the front door open and close. Addison walked back into the room. She took her seat that she was in before hand.
"What did Dr. Shamal say?" Lynn asked, sliding Addison her house key.
"Nothing yet, he just took some blood." Addison laid her head on the table.
"What is he testing you for?" Tsuna questioned.
"He said that what ever liquid thing I have in me can be dangerous at high amounts."
"Then were you allowed to leave or did you leave on your own?" Reborn asked.
"I just left, I feel fine and Dr. Shamal said he wouldn't get the results until later tonight."
"That's probably not safe." Gokudera crossed his arms.
"Yah, well I wasn't ready to sit in the hospital and wait for him to be done."
Yamamoto chuckled slightly. There was a knock at the door. Tsuna stood and walked over to the front door while the rest of them stayed quiet. Dr. Shamal rushed into the room.
"Addison, you need to come back to the hospital, this could be very dangerous for you." Dr. Shamal grabbed Addison's arm to take her out of the house.
"No." Addison jerked her arm away. "I'm not going to the hospital unless I'm going to die."
"But . ." Dr. Shamal was cut off.
"You can have someone look over me twenty-four seven if you want but I'm not going into a hospital unless it is 100% necessary. I've don't like hospitals." Addison laid her head back on the table.
"I'm sure we can all take turns watching over her." Tsuna still stood in the door way.
"I'm tired, I'm going home." Addison stood from her chair.
"Wait, it's best for you to stay here for the night, that way when your results come back we can keep an eye on you if needed." Reborn stopped her.
"Alright, I guess." Addison walked over to the couch and slowly laid across it. She was quickly asleep.
"We should figure out who will watch her when." Reborn announced.
"I can watch her at night since she'll probably be sleeping here for a while." Tsuna offered.
"Serenity and I can do afternoons if she ever goes anywhere." Lynn said quickly, not wanting mornings.
"Which leaves Gokudera and I for mornings." Yamamoto smiled.
"I have to be with the baseball freak!" Gokudera shouted.
"Shut it, Addison's asleep." Serenity slapped him. "Deal with it."
"We'll start now then. All of you can go home and you'll know the results of her blood test tomorrow." Reborn stood up and started for the stairs.
Everyone did. All of the Vongola's were home eating dinner with their families, except for Addison who was asleep on Tsuna's couch.
"Ne~ why does she keep sleeping Mama?" Lambo asked, poking Addison slightly; which made her roll over to face the other way.
"Her mama is away for a while and she's a little sick. She'll probably be asleep most of the time she's here." Tsuna's mom picked up Lambo and walked out of the living room. There was a knock at the front door that slightly woke Addison. She never opened her eyes, but she could here everything.
"The blood test came back." Dr. Shamal told Reborn. In her body is about double of what if can tolerate. You need to convince her to come back to the hospital."
"It won't happen, she absolutely hates hospitals. And even if you just too her, she would find a way to leave." Reborn's voice came closer. Addison pushed herself to a sitting position and opened her eyes to see Dr. Shamal and Reborn sitting on the other couch.
"She heard, keep going." Reborn told Dr. Shamal.
You have about twenty-four hours before you become really sick." Dr. Shamal stood up. "I can't make you, but I highly suggest you to come back to the hospital with me."
"No." Addison said immediately after he finished. Addison stretched herself across the couch again, ready to go back to sleep.
"Don't bother going back to bed. Tsuna will be waking up any minute." Reborn said as Dr. Shamal left the room.
"Your point?" Addison asked.
"I know that you're going to school anyways."
"You're right. I've got to get a change of clothes." Addison stood off of the couch and started for the front door. Reborn went up the stairs to wake Tsuna. Addison slid the door open and took a step outside as she closed it behind her.
"Addison, where are you going?" Gokudera stood at the fence gate, about to come in.
"I need to get a change of clothes." Addison continued walking.
"You shouldn't be going alone." Gokudera stepped in the way.
"Then come with." Addison walks around Gokudera and starts towards her house. Gokudera followed closely behind.
"What did Dr. Shamal say?" Gokudera asked as they got to Addison's house.
"That the thing is doubled of what my body can tolerate. And that I'm probably going to get really sick in the next twenty-four hours." Addison opened the front door.
"Then why are you going to school?"
"Because the day I'm gone, he assigns the most homework and if I sat home, I have nothing to do." She started up the stairs. There was a very small knock at the door. Addison barely heard it.
Gokudera opened the door. Lynn, Serenity, Yamamoto, and Tsuna all stood there.
"What are you guys doing here?" Gokudera asked.
"Reborn told me that she came over here, and thought she was alone, so I came to check on her." Tsuna announced.
"Oh, well she's upstairs changing right now."
"She sh . . . ." Serenity started, but was cut off by a series of large coughs. The Vongola's downstairs waited for the coughing to stop but after a minute, it didn't happen. Up the stairs they all rushed to Addison's room where she was holding herself up with her dresser and covering her mouth. The coughs slowly started to die down as Yamamoto ran across the hall to get a cup of water.
"Are you alright?" Lynn asked, helping Addison over to her bed so she could sit. Yamamoto came back with a small cup of water. Addison took a long drink of water.
"I'm fine, it's alright." Addison got off of the bed and put the cup on her night stand.
"No I don't think you are." Serenity tried moving her back to the bed.
"I'm fine, let's go before we're late." Addison pulled her hand away.
"But. . ." Tsuna started.
"I understand that you guys are worried, but I'm fine." Addison started walking towards the door.
The Vongola's walked to school silently. The only thing that happened was that Addison began to have chest pain. Addison sat at her desk breathing heavily.
Half way through the first lesson Addison not only had the chest pain, she was beginning to get a head ache. Towards the end of the second lesson she was getting a stomach ache.
The entire day just got worse. On top of all the things she had getting worse, she also began to have muscle pains. Addison laid her head on her desk and blocked out the teacher
"Hey, are you alright?" Gokudera leaned over and whispered
"I'm . . . fine." Addison whispered back, trying to sound normal.
The bell rang. Umeko, the enemy walked up to Addison's desk as the teacher walked out of the room.
"Are you okay? You don't look too goo." She smiled.
The class room was mostly empty, so Addison stood from her desk. Dizziness rushed over Addison, but she had her mind set. She rose her fist and slammed down on the girls nose. The girl fell to the ground, Addison almost hit the ground too, losing her balance.
"Whoa, are you alright?" Gokudera asked, stopping Addison from falling.
"Yah I just lost my balance." Addison stood on her own again. Ichiro, the girl's brother, helped her off of the ground and left the room.
"What did you do that for?" Tsuna ran over to Addison and Gokudera.
"I was mad." Addison stated. "I wanted to get it out before I wouldn't be able to."
"Nice." Lynn laughed.
"How are yah feeling?" Tsuna asked.
"Fine." Addison sat on her desk, trying to even out her breathing.
"She's lying." Serenity pointed out.
"How can you tell?" Yamamoto questioned.
"Listen to her breathing. She's having a hard time breathing, she's dizzy, and by the looks of it, she has sore muscles too."
"Also a stomach ache and a head ache." Addison coughed.
"I guess it's a good thing tomorrow is Saturday." Gokudera stated.
"Let's get going, I don't plan on staying here any longer." Lynn started for the door. Addison pushed herself off of the desk and almost toppled over from dizziness.
"Hey." Yamamoto caught her from hitting the ground.
"Maybe we should take her to Dr. Shamal." Tsuna wondered.
"No, I'm fine." Addison automatically stood herself up and began walking after Lynn.
The Vongola's began walking to Tsuna's, everyone keeping a close eye on Addison. They were only a few houses away from Tsuna's house when Addison stopped and stared straight ahead. Addison's vision went black for a moment but then she saw herself being carried on Gokudera's back. She was unconscious. She was carried into a hospital room
Addison's vision came back to see the other Vongola's staring at her in confusion. Before she could explain what had just happened, her vision went black again, but this time it stayed black. She felt her self being lifted, assuming it was onto Gokudera's back.
'Did I just see the future?' she asked herself as she emerged into the darkness.
The Vongola's began walking to Tsuna's. Half way home, Addison stopped dead in her tracks, staring at nothing but the air that was two inches in front of her.
"Addison are you ok?" Lynn stepped in front of her.
"What's wrong with her?" Tsuna turned. Addison began to fall backwards. Gokudera, who was standing behind her, caught Addison in his arms.
"Is she alright?" Yamamoto asked.
"She just passed out, she was probably really dizzy." Gokudera got Addison on his back as if she were getting a piggy-back-ride.
"She really needs to accept that she's sick." Serenity laughed.
"You would be the same." Lynn crossed her arms.
"We should take her to Dr. Shamal." Tsuna announced.
"We'll see how mad she'll be when she wakes up." Serenity giggled.
"She'll just have to deal with it." Gokudera started towards the small hospital Dr. Shamal was at.
"Dr. Shamal?" Tsuna called.
"What? Who's there?" A voice shouted from the back room, shortly after, Dr. Shamal walked out. "Oh, what do you want, I'm very busy." Dr. Shamal put a clipboard on the small front desk.
"Doing what?" Serenity asked.
"Not important. What do you need?" Dr. Shamal didn't notice Addison on Gokudera's back.
"Addison passed out on the way home from school." Tsuna announced.
"Why'd you bring her here, as soon as she wakes up she's going to leave."
"We just wanted to know why she passed out and maybe have her rest here for a while." Gokudera snapped.
"She was probably just standing too long. Was she dizzy at all today?"
"Yah she almost fell over at school."
"Right after she punched a kid." Serenity mumbled.
"Well then all I can do is have her rest. Anything else would have to be done while she's awake and she won't let me keep her here long enough to do anything." He paused. "There's no reason to keep her here. I could come by later and do a few more blood tests to see what I can do for her."
"Sure, that'll be fine." Tsuna nodded.
"But what ever I learn that I can do for her, doesn't mean she'll let me do it."
"That's fine." Reborn appeared on Tsuna's shoulder.
"What time?"
"About what time should she be up?"
"Probably an hour or so."
"Around then, we'll be going then." Reborn nodded. "Let's go."
~About a hour and a half later~
The Vongola's all sat in Tsuna's house. Addison lay unconscious on the couch.
"Dr. Shamal's going to come after she wakes up right?" Tsuna asked.
"Yep." Reborn nodded.
"What are we going to do about the enemy?" Serenity questioned.
"Nothing, at least not now. We'll need everyone we've got, which means Addison."
"But. . ." Tsuna started, but there was a large thud on the ground.
"Ow!" Addison's voice complained. Addison stood up off the ground.
~Small back track~
Darkness. Addison was still unconscious. Right before Addison woke up she saw something. All of the Vongola's were on the roof top of the school. Even Hibari, Chrome, and Ryohei were there. They were being attacked. Addison sat in the corner, too weak to fight. There was a mist and Chrome disappeared, being replaced with Mukuro. . . . . the image evaporated. Pain hit Addison's back and her eyes shot open. She was staring at Tsuna's ceiling.
"Ow!" Addison complained, standing up off of the ground. Addison slowly made her way over to the dining room table where everyone else sat.
"Are you alright?" Lynn asked.
"Yah, I just rolled off the couch." Addison nodded.
"I don't think that's what she meant." Serenity pointed out.
Addison saw a quick picture of Yamamoto sneezing in her mind. Not realizing at first that it was in her mind, Addison said, "Bless you." Then she realized no had sneezed yet.
Yamamoto sneezed. There was a long awkward silence.
"How did you do that?" Gokudera broke the silence.
"I . . . . don't know." Addison looked very confused. "Gokudera, did you carry me into the hospital earlier?" Addison asked, thinking about what she had seen right before she passed out.
"Yeah, right after you fainted we all took you, why?"
"Maybe you should rest some more." Tsuna shrugged.
"Are yo . . . ." Addison was cut off with a knock at the door.
Tsuna stood from his seat and walked over to the front door.
"Alright, I'm here, is she awake yet?" Dr. Shamal asked Tsuna once he opened the door.
"Yah." Tsuna let him into the house. Dr. Shamal walked over to Addison.
"How yah feeling?" Dr. Shamal kneeled in front of her.
"Fine, what are you doing here?"
"We had him come to check on you after you passed out." Reborn walked across the table.
"Relax." Dr. Shamal mumbled when Addison tensed up slightly. "I'm only going to take a little more blood." He pulled out a few different tools, one of which being a needle.
"Alright fine." Addison stretched out her arm.
Before they knew it, Dr. Shamal was walking out the door.
"You know, you should really let him take care of you." Lynn suggested.
"No." Addison said plainly.
"Why not?" Serenity asked.
"Because one, I hate hospitals you already knew that. Second, I'm feeling a million times better than I did before I passed out." Addison explained.
"Tomorrow everyone is going to meet at the school rooftop and we're going to discus how to beat the enemy." Reborn announced.
"Everyone, like Hibari and Chrome?" Tsuna questioned.
"And Ryohei." Reborn nodded.
"We have to go to school on a Saturday?" Lynn complained.
Addison started coughing. She got up and walked into the kitchen to get a drink of water. There was a knock at the door.
"I'll get it." Addison started towards the door with her cup of water. She slowly opened the door. Hibari was standing there with his usual glare on his face. "Hibari, what brings you over here? Come on in." Addison started back for the dining room.
"I was told that you punch another student earlier." Hibari said monotone.
"She deserved it she got me sick. And it was after school so it doesn't matter."
"That's why I'm giving you a warning. Do it again and I'll bite you to death." Hibari started for the door.
"Lighten up some Hibari."
Yamamoto laughed.
"You're too serious about everything." Addison joked, laying her head on the table. Before anything else happened, Addison was slammed against the wall.
"I will bite you to death." Hibari whispered.
"Hibari, knock it off." Reborn commanded.
"I was only kidding Hibari." Addison shrugged him off, sitting down again.
