Here is the second chapter for forgotten pasts.
Sorry it took me so long, but I'm in my first year of A levels so I get a lot of work, especially since I decided to do biology (OHH GOD WHY?) I will try and upload chapters more often, sorry if they are rather shite, they may be slightly rushed due to the immense amount of work we get in A levels ( I think A levels are like the equivalent to American high school, not sure, I'm English not American so I may be wrong :) )
I in no way own Karneval and probably never will, no matter how much I wish I did.
Warning of some altering of the actual manga so AU of course ( I know nothing of Gareki's past this is all made up from my head so I doubt there would be any spoilers).
I also need to thank everyone that reviewed it ….. ghost I-I'm not a-a-afraid, UkeGarekiFan, KuroiSpade, and 2 annonamous people.

The sound of the sheep grew louder as it came closer to the two. A short distance behind the sheep was a very anxious looking Nai, his face was a portrait full of emotions, mainly fear etched into his features. His eyes were filled to the brim with tears and his usual smile was now a sorrow filled frown.
"YOGI, TSUKUMO ..." was all that little Nai could muster up and say before the tears began to cascade down his face.
"baa Gareki has fallen ill baa emergency baa" announced the sheep in its usual monotone robotic voice.
Yogi did not waste a single moment before running to where Gareki was. With his speed it only took him a second to reach the half conscious boy. As he got closer he noticed his body falling to one side. He sped up to catch the falling boy before he could come in contact with the cold hard ground, as Yogi grabbed the boy he caught a glimpse of his expression before he lost consciousness. It was that of discomfort and pain. The blonde checked to see if he was fully unconscious before laying him slowly and softly to the ground, he took special care in making sure that his head was in a comfortable enough position to ease him at least a little of the pain he may be feeling.
Yogi's eyes scanned the area to see if Hirato was making his way to the scene. As he did so his eyes wandered to the pool of sick that had come from the teen. He could not help but notice the large blobs of blood among the remains of his breakfast.
Yogi felt repulsed by the fact that he hadn't detected a problem with the teen until it had escalated to where it was now.
Surely he was capable enough of looking after his friends health at least, or was he, he thought to himself, maybe he was not worthy of looking after them maybe they were better off with staying with the 1st ships crew.
Doubts started to cloud Yogi's mind as he pondered whether he were truly worthy of such responsibility, until he was snapped back to reality, to the current situation by the sound of Hirato's footsteps coming closer to where they were situated.
"what happened to him?" Hirato asked in a rather dull manner but still with a hint of concern.
Everyone turned to Nai to explain what had happened on there journey to their rooms.
"well.. erm.. we were walking and... uh Gareki was s-shaking and uhh kind of moving from side to side.. then umm it looked like h he was in p-pain and he held his head and started shouting"
to say that Yogi was discomforted by this news was an understatement, he felt a mixture of fear, anger and worry for his friend that was currently unconscious and lying on the ground. He was snapped out of his train of thoughts as Hirato bent down and placed a hand to the top of Gareki's head.
"he's burning up, get him to the medical bay" Yogi did as he was instructed and wasted no time in hoisting the surprisingly light figure that hung loosely in his arms, he looked like a rag do that had been tossed aside and found by a kind hearted person. He lay unmoving in his grip, it was rather unsettling seeing how still he was, usually if Yogi got this close to him, he would be pushing him away telling him to go play with Nai or something.
As they made their way to the medical bay, Yogi noticed Nai trailing behind. He couldn't stop to ask what was the matter due to the fact that he was still carrying an unconscious Gareki.
The walk there was excruciatingly slow to Yogi as they reached the doors to where the doctor was, they slowly opened the doors to reveal the doctor reading through some files.
"Hey doctor, take a look at Gareki he seems to have a fever or something"
"You know Hirato you should be more respectful to those that take care of you when you're sick" said the doctor as he made his way to where Yogi was standing, still holding the unconscious Gareki.
"Hmm, lay him down and i'll take a proper look at him" Yogi did as he was told but was reluctant to let go of the figure in his arms, as he moved away the doctor got out his thermometer and stethoscope.
"Hmm, his breathing seems rather fast and unequal, heart rate also seems faster than it should, lets see what his temp... hmm take him to Akari" the doctor ordered with a hint of urgency in his voice.
"What, why, what's wrong with him, how high is his temperature?" Yogi started to panic at the doctors sudden change in demeanour.
"Yes, i'd like to know this as well, is there something wrong with him?" asked a surprised Hirato.
"It's just that with a temperature this high he shouldn't..." he began before glancing at a very distressed Nai sitting in the corner of the room forgotten by the other two "..be.. with us, if you know what i mean"
Thankfully Nai didn't follow what he meant, but the other two, even Hirato had shocked expressions plastered onto their faces.
"Wait, if it's that bad then why is he still 'with us'?" asked a rather shocked Hirato, sure he acted like he didn't care but that didn't mean that actually didn't.
"That's what i would want to know to, but unfortunately i don't have the equipment here to find out, so quickly, take him to Akari...GO, what are you waiting for?" Yogi was snapped out of his shock induced trance and sprang into action, picking the unconscious boy back up again and leaving the room and headed to the shops.
"Nai i need you to go find Tsukumo and tell her where we are going, ok? You think you can do that? for Gareki" Hirato instructed the nervous Nai as he got up from where you had placed himself.
"Yes, i can do that. Is Gareki going to be okay?" but Nai did not receive an answer as Hirato stood straight and ran to where Yogi was headed.
~~~~~~~~~Gareki~~~~~~~~
Meanwhile the inside of Gareki's head was a mess of mixed up dreams, were they dreams? they felt too real to be dreams, different faces popped up at random times, different scenes and situations, confusion set in and he didn't know what to do, so he did the obvious, he covered his eyes and shouted. He shouted as loud as he could, what he was shouting for, not even he knew. Help? maybe, but from who. There was no one there.
Come to think of it, where was he?
Slowly he opened his eyes, but all that he could see was darkness, he could see no floor, no walls, no ceiling or sky, just darkness. He didn't want to admit it, but he was scared, too scared to make a sound now. The questions still stood strong in his mind.
"Where the hell am I ?"
"Home"
Gareki almost let out a startled gasp but stopped himself from making any further sounds as to not attract the mystery voice that seemed to come from nowhere.
"Long time no see"
He couldn't help but be nosy and ask "Who's there? where am I and what the fuck is going on?" the last thing he remembered was walking back to his and Nai's shared room before everything went black.
"Aww, you don't remember me, that's a shame, i'll just have to remind you" the voice said in an almost whisper.
"What're you talking abo...AAARRRGGGHHH" he couldn't help the scream of pain that escaped his lips as a sharp burning pain erupted in his head, images began to appear at such a rapid pace that he could not even make out what they were, but as suddenly as they had appeared they also disappeared, and the dark room he had been in had turned into a blinding white room. He let his eyes adjust to the change in brightness, and soon enough he could make out a blurred figure in the distance. Making his way towards the figure he began to make out the figures features, but soon he had to stop himself from coming any closer to them as he recognised the person that now stood in front of him.
Not being able to say anything he just stood there with his mouth slightly agape.
"Look familiar?" the person said as the brought their hand to his face and cupped his cheek.
Gareki was completely immobile, he couldn't bring himself to move a muscle in the presence of this person.
Finally he was able to utter a few words "You, you're...no..
