Rin's Mind:
"W-what where am I" I say out loud as I look around.
The place looked totally different now. Before it was nothing but darkness, now there were flashes of images flying were of events, places, and people that I didn't know.
"Well at least I think I don't know them. What is going on here"? I wonder out loud.
Shima's POV:
"Hee hee ummm yea sorry I haven't visited you but you know, I've been busy lately" I say but the truth is that I could bring myself to see him.
I heard his condition from Shiemi after she helped patch him up. I was surprised to hear that Okumura had suffered all those injures from that one attack.
From what I heard, that demon was called a Zallor and that it's a middle- high class demon and that its rare to see one, much less survive an attack by one. One stab of its claws can kill you. Even though Okumura is half demon, he is also half human And is lucky he survived.
I look down at him and wonder if he will ever wake up. Just remembering the fight between him and sent shivers up my spine. The words had to have hurt Okumura pretty badly, especially since they are brothers.
"Everyone is wondering when you'll wake up you know. You have already been asleep for 4 days. Even for me that's a bit much don't you think"? I say laughing a little.
Still there is no response, just silence. All of a sudden I just can't take it anymore and I say what has been on my mind.
" It's all 's fault. Though I think went a little over board there with the punch, but she did have a point. Oh speaking of what she said when Bon comes to visit you, he is gonna be pist that you didn't tell us why you did all that hard training. Well I've got class so I've gotta go but someone else will be here with you. I just hope you'll wake up soon, ok Okumura? Well see ya sometime" and with that I leave.
Rin's Mind:
"What's this sound? It almost sounds like whispers of voices, but who do they belong to"?I wonder as I float around watching all the images pass by.
The whispers continue to surround me, rapping around me like a rope, they tye me down, holding me in place.
The images get closer, the whispers get louder, more persistent, like they are trying to get me to remember them.
"I'm sorry I still don't know who any of you are" and with that, the pressure gets to be to much for me and I black out.
Bon's POV:
"Damn it Okumura why didn't you tell us that you were training? We are your friends so you can tell us anything and trust us to help you. Damn this is what pisses me off about you. You never tell us anything because you want to protect us even if it means you get injured in the process. Sheesh you're such an idiot" I growl out through clenched teeth.
It has been 5 days since Okumura was injured and he still showed no sign of waking though Shiemi's antidote took care of the poison, his flames still were slow to heal his injuries.
"Its all 's fault that this happened in the first place. Seriously what type of brother his he to say those things to you. I bet he didn't even apologize to you, that coward. Well he better apologize when he gets back in 3 days or I'm gonna make him regret it. Well it's late and I still have to study for the test I've got tomorrow. I'll visit you again some other time" and with that I leave.
Konekomeru's POV:
I sat in the chair next to Okumura's bed, looking at Okumura not knowing what else to do. The only sound that can be heard is Okumura's wheezy breathing.
It has been 6 days now and Okumura still hasn't shown any sign of waking up. Each day that passes, is another day that everyone is left wondering if he will ever wake up.
"I must admit that what said to you was wrong. I never thought that he would ever loose his temper like that or that he would say those things to you. You know, I along with everyone else hopes that you'll get better soon. Well I have to go meet with Bon and Shima. I'll visit you again when I can. Bye" I say as I walk out of Okumura's room.
Izumo's POV:
"Well I guess it's my turn to babysit you. Man I so didn't want to do this" I say out loud but inside I'm worried about Okumura Like everyone else.
It has now been a week since the attack and he still hasn't woken up.
Lately I have been wondering whether or not it was because of what said to him that he hasn't woken up. Maybe if gets the guts to apologize to him, then maybe just maybe he will wake up.
"I hope you wake up soon Okumura because class isn't the same without you and that hot-head Bon yelling at each other" I say quickly as I leave to go meet up with Paku.
Shiemi's POV:
"Good morning Rin, how are you feeling today"? I ask has I walk into his room. I have been coming here everyday to change his bandages and check on his wounds. Everytime I do, I talk to him thinking that he would wake up if he hears the voices of friends.
" Well looks like your wounds are finally closing up so that's good" I say as I finish bandaging him up.
When I feel his forehead though, I'm disappointed to see that his fever hasn't changed a bit. Knowing that there is nothing else I can do, I wet a new cloth and place it on Rin's head, hoping that his fever will go down.
" You know Yuki called me yesterday asking how you were doing. I told him that you're healing well but you still have the fever and that you haven't woken up yet. He's really worried about. He said that you should have woken up by now because your flames should have sped up your healing and that you being asleep for 8 days isn't good. Luckily he's coming back from his mission today. Maybe when he arrives he can apologize to you for what he said to you. I still can't believe Yuki would say those things to you. I hope that you don't believe what he said about you because he was just angry and lost his temper that's all" I say as I re-wet the cloth.
I look at the clock and am shock that it was already noon. I yawn and without realizing it I fall asleep.
Rin's Mind:
The whispers have started to become clearer. I can now recognize voices in the whispers and I'm also starting to recognize the people in the images.
After what seemed like hours, one of the voices became louder then the rest, more persistent. Then all of a sudden all I felt was pain. It was so intense that I thought that I would pass out, but just as soon as it came it was gone.
With the disappearance of the pain, the loud voice became clear. I recognized it and the image that belonged to the the voice. It was Yukio, my brother.
With that revelation, came another more intense pain then before.
When it finally disappeared, I realized that I could recognize who the people were in the images and their voices.
"I remember now, everything. Finding out that Satan was my father, the old man's death, Yukio and I getting into that fight my first day at True Cross Academy, my friends, I remember it all." I said as I was smiling.
Then, just as soon as I was happy that I remembered everything, the most resent events came to me and I froze.
The training mission with Shura and Yukio and my friends tagging along as well, the fight with Yukio, what he said to me, me running into the forest, me jumping in front of Yukio, taking the attack for him and then nothing but darkness and the voices of my friends talking to me, telling me to get better and wake up.
But what hurt me the most was that I never once heard Yukio apologize for what he said to me in the fight.
"Maybe he was right. It was my fault that the old man died. Its also true that I never listened to him and because of that I had put my friends in danger. Maybe they would be better off it I was dead" I said as I felt tears slide down my face.
Not knowing when it happened, I fell back to sleep, not knowing if I would wake up again or if the wound to my heart would heal.
Shiemi's POV:
I woke up to the sound of Rin's heart beat slowing down until there was barely any sign of one.
"Oh god Rin no" I say as I start to panic.
I felt his forehead and discovered that his fever was higher then it was 's when I noticed the tears. Rin was crying.
I thought " Maybe he's remembering what Yuki said to him". So I each end for my phone and called Yuki.
Yukio's POV:
"Shiemi what's the matter? Is there something wrong with Rin? I asked as I entered the dorm Rin and I live in.
"Wait what do you mean his heart rate lowered And his fever rose? What Rin's crying? Ok im in the dorm now. I'll be there in a minute" I said hanging up the phone.
"Rin please don't die please. You're the only family I have left" I whispered as I entered our room.
Shiemi's POV:
The door opened and to my relief it was Yuki.
" What exactly happened Shiemi?" I asked as I walked up to Rin and looked at him worriedly.
" I accidently fell asleep and then I heard Rin's heart beat slow and that's what woke me up. I went and checked his fever and found that his fever had risen and that's when I saw that he was crying. Oh Yuki will Rin be ok? I asked as I started to cry.
" I don't know Shiemi. Everything looks alright but for some reason his heart rate went down and his fever spiked" Yuki said.
I started crying harder, but then I got an idea.
" Hey Yuki do you think Rin could be sad about what you said to him in the fight? Maybe if you apologize to him then maybe he will get better and wake up"I said as hope began to blossom inside me.
" Maybe he is, I don't know. Do you think I hurt him that badly because I didn't mean to I was just angry and upset" Yuki said with a look of unease.
I got a little angry at Yuki and began to yell.
" Yuki just stop being a coward already and apologize to Rin. No offense but it is your fault that this happened. Anyway I better tell the others what happened. You better have apologized by the time I come back or I'm going to bring Shura with me" and with that I turn and leave.
Yukio's POV:
I watched as Shiemi left, feeling worse then I did before. I looked down at Rin and sighed.
"Oh Rin Shiemi's right it is my fault that this happened. If only I had never said those things to you, you wouldn't have left and we wouldn't have had to look for you and you wouldn't have had a reason to have protected me. Oh Rin I'm so sorry that this happened. I'm so sorry that I said those things to you. I didn't mean them, I was just upset and angry. Please Rin just don't die, please. You're the only family I have left since dad died. Please I can't loose you too" and with that I crumpled into the chair beside Rin's bed and started to cry.
I don't how long I was crying before I fell asleep with my head next to Rin's arm.
Rin's POV:
"I'm so sorry I said those things to you. I didn't mean them,I was just upset and angry. Please Rin please don't die. Please I can't lose you too" the words Yukio had said rang inside my mind.
"He apologized and he was crying" I thought as I opened my eyes to the now dark space I was floating in.
"I can't just give up. What about all my friends and Yukio. They would be upset if I just give up and died. Ok that's settled now how the hell do I get out of here" and as I said that a light appeared.
Seeing as there was no other exit, I headed toward the light and allowed it to lead me out of the darkness.
The next thing I became aware of was the intense pain in my chest and back. It felt like someone had shoved a white hot iron into my chest and back.
I then became aware of something warm by my arm. Opening up my senses I realized that it was Yukio.
"He must be asleep" I thought to myself.
I then tried to open my eyes, but my eye lids felt to heavy. After awhile I decided to try and move my arm. I tried and tried but I couldn't get to move. When I was about to give up, I felt my hand twitch. Feeling satisfied, I relaxed and let the exhaustion take over and I felt myself fall back to sleep.
Yukio's POV:
I was starting to wake up when I became aware of movement next to me. I immediately jolted upright and looked at Rin.
What I saw made hope bloom inside my chest. His eye lids fluttered and then his hand twitched. I grabbed his hand and in a whispered voice asked"Rin, Rin are you awake?"
To my disappointment I felt his hand relax, but I was relieved that he had briefly shown signs of waking up.
I checked his heart rate and fever and was relieved to find that his heart rate was normal and that his fever had went down. His breathing was still wheezy but it sounded stronger.
Relieved that his condition had improved I decided it was best for me to go to bed and get some rest so that I would be well rested to take care of Rin tomorrow. With that in mind I changed into my pajamas, turned off the lights and slipped into bed. Before I closed my eyes, I turned towards Rin.
"Good night Rin" and with that I fell asleep.
