"What a moron am I" Sakito muttered to himself from underneath his blankets of the hospital bed in wich he was lying. "The whole place is in flames! Quickly! Jump inside and save the day for that guy!" He rephased the thoughts he had when he jumped in to save Kagai in a comical matter. He pulled the blankets of his face and looked around. From what he had heard in the small time he had openend his eyes in the hospital, was that Kagai had been send to Itensive Care. Some hero he was. He didn't remember receiving a nasty burn, but he had, luckily the damage wasn't bad, he wouldn't have any burnmarks, not big ones atleast.
He wondered how that guy was doing. He already had noticed that the rest also had made it safely. Infact they where now in the same hospital room as his, although they probably didn't noticed him yet, or perhaps they didn't WANT to notice him. Probably because he had failed to save Kagai. He let out a deep sigh and tried to close his eyelids. He should get some sleep, just go off to dream-world and forget about the stining pain in his leg and arm...it just was so difficult.

Seimei had woken up, though he kept his eyes closed. Partally because he wanted to rest, but also because he had an enormous headache. Had he been drinking yesterday? He tried remembering, but it was all a bit vague. Then he remembered fire. It was everywhere. He jumped. Was everyone okay?
He heard something to his right and turned his head in that direction, though when he opened his eyes everything was dark and he could hardly see anything. However, it was clear he was lying in a hospital bed. He saw a little lamp on his bedside table and turned it on. The bright light made a new wave of pain hit his head. When his eyes accustomed to the light and his headache was bearable again, he noticed that the sound came from Natsumi trying to sit up. Maybe that was the reason why he woke up? Seimei tried sitting up too, experiencing dizziness and nausea in the progress. Realizing he wouldn't make it all the way up he placed his pillow underneath his back and started looking for that remote control thingy that hospital beds always had. After a lot of headache and unpleasantness he found it and lifted his head end to a comfortable height.
He had a good look around. Kikyou was lying in a bed behind Natsumi, and someone else, probably the extinguisher boy, was in a bed in the opposite row. He saw a clock hanging on the wall. It was past twelve already. Seimei wanted to start a chat with Natsumi, but somehow didn't. He just sat there hoping someone else would start the talk.

In the darkness of the room, Natsumi had been dozing off again, until suddenly someone put on a light. She blinked a few times, her eyes adjusting to the bright light. It had been Seimei, and he was now sort of sitting up in his bed. He wasn't looking well, as his complexion was awfully pale, and he'd closed his eyes tight in a way you do when you're having a bad headache. She noticed he used the remote control to lift the upper part of the bed a little, in a way he would be able to sit up comfortably. She reached down in order to do the same. After messing around with the various buttons, she managed to get her bed in the position she wanted. Now she was able to see the rest of the room, and also the row of beds on the other side. There was the boy that used the fire-extinguisher. Hmm it seemed like everyone was sleeping except for Seimei and her. She looked at the boy lying next to her again.
"Hey, you alright? What happened when you jumped out of the window? Sorry I ran off right after, but it's just... I felt so guilty over forgetting about Shuu-chan..." She looked down at her hands, neatly folded on the white sheets.

Kagai opened his eyes again, blinking against the light that came from the hallway. Who left the door open? He wanted to have his sleep! .....Besides...... Where was he? He looked around, his sight still as blurry as before. Damn it, he thought, I should've known.... The hospital.... That's where he was. That's right...... The fire... Flames... Smoke... The heat... It continued to press against his lungs. His insides felt irritated, his head felt heavy, and his limbs felt as cold as ice. He began to breath heavily. However, it made him cough. And he coughed badly. But, he suddenly felt a warm, big and reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Kagai-kun. Don't worry, Kagai-kun. You're safe." That voice... It was familiar. Kagai recognized it as the voice he heared earlier. It was probably a doctor or something. "W.......Wh....What...." Kagai coughed again, his throat feeling like it was ripping. "...ha....ppen...ed...." "Don't talk, Kagai-kun. You inhaled a lot of smoke. Had you been there for only a few minutes longer, it would've been resulted in permanent damage, if that's not the case already." Kagai gave up, his throat demanding rest. "Anyway, Kagai-kun. Do you have any family? Anyone we should contact?" But Kagai shook his head. He did not want his father with him right now. "...M.......My.....F...Fr...ien....d...s...." "Don't worry, Kagai-kun. They're safe. They're in the same hospital. Just in a different room. So, don't worry." Kagai felt somewhat relieved. They were okay. He was... glad. Suddenly, the person stood up and began walking towards the doorway. Stopping, the man turned around. "Kagai-kun, please try to get some rest. When you wake up, in a few hours, I'll be able to explain the entire situation. But for now, take it easy, okay?" And with that, the figure walked away. And Kagai was alone again. He looked around, but his blurry sight prevented him from recognizing anything. He gave up and let his blurred world slowly be replaced with the cold darkness of his restless sleep.

Kikyou still had her eyes closed, but sleep wouldn't come. She tried to think about what happened during the fire, but the memories from the accident were blurry. One thing she was sure of though; it was her fault. What would she do if her new found friends had any permanent damage? How could she ever face them ever again? Thinking about this only made Kikyou's head hurt and confused, but she couldn't stop thinking about this. Tears formed in her eyes and silently fell down on her pillow, were they were soaked in by the fabric.
From her left she heard a light switching on and one, then two, other moving sounds. She figured the sounds came from Natsumi and Seimei, which made her feel a bit relieved; at least they had regained conscienceness. "Hey, you alright? What happened when you jumped out of the window? Sorry I ran off right after, but it's just... I felt so guilty over forgetting about Shuu-chan..." Natsumi's voice sounded. Kikyou let out a small sob, not knowing if she cried because of what happened, or because 2 of her friends were okay enough to move around. She tried to lift the upperpart of the bed, so she could sit up too, but it seemed the control was on the right side of the bed so she couldn't use it.

"Hey, you alright? What happened when you jumped out of the window?" It was Natsumi. "Sorry I ran off right after, but it's just... I felt so guilty over forgetting about Shuu-chan..." Seimei thought it would be best to just answer the first two questions to try and lead Natsumi's thoughts from her guilt. "Yeah, I'm pretty fine I guess", Seimei lied. "I don't remember the details of what exactly happened, but I think I cut my arm on a shard from the window when jumping." He pointed at the white bandage on his right upper arm. "I remember twisting my ankle and I think I hit my head when landing... but everything's still very vague... Maybe because I hit my head....." Seimei realised he had been talking a lot about himself. "So, what happened to you?"

Although Seimei had started talking to her, Natsumi still kept staring down at her hands. It was not like she was feeling too guilty or embarrassed to look him in the eyes, but she was so tired all of the sudden. Her head seemed too heavy to move, although she actually had the thought in mind that it would be polite to face him when having a conversation. She sighed. Then, with some effort turned her head and looked at him, though her eyes didn't seem to see him.
"Me? Oh, I guess I'm fine... Don't really know... and I actually don't care either. I just hope Shuu-chan is alright. If... if something really bad happened to him... I wouldn't know what to do." Suddenly she shook her head. What was this? She was feeling... a presence. The presence of Kagai. At least, she thought it was him. It was like a warm blanket was wrapped around her. Yes, she knew for sure, he was safe. She sighed, and with that the sensation evaporated like mist on a sunny morning. The haze lifted from her eyes, and a smile formed on her lips.
"He is alright." The words came out clear and certain, though a bit dreamy. "He is alright..."

"I just hope Shuu-chan is alright. If... if something really bad happened to him... I wouldn't know what to do." Kuso. They drifted back to Shuu-chan again. He had to think of something to make her think of something else. He tried, but that seemed impossible with his headache.
"He is alright."
Suddenly Natsumi sounded confident and at rest. "He is alright...", she repeated. Somehow these words soothed Seimei. For a moment he forgot about his headache, and he too felt at ease.
He looked at her and smiled. "Yokatta."

Ittai was done working at his house. So he walked outside to the garden and saw it was empty. Only some birds and the fish in the pond were there. Ittai walked over to the gate and opened it. While stepping outside, Ittai closed the gate and locked it.
When Ittai walked in the direction of the gate he saw people whispering and walking fast. Ittai walked over to a group of girls standing beside a candy-shop. "What is going on? Why is everyone in such a hurry and all?" The girls looked up surprised. "Don't you know? The dorm nr 17's kitchen was all in flames. Some people got out and some gotten into the hospital. The fire is contained and stopped. But it is all black and gone." When the girls told Ittai this story he was shocked. The dorm nr 17's kitchen in flames? Who could have been hospitalized? Not his the people he just met?
"Do they know who was hospitalized? And how is the school building doing?" Ittai asked in a hurry. "We don't know who they were. But they say it were some new comers. And the dorm building is fine, it just need repairs. So they say." Ittai thanked the girls and ran off. Would those new comers be the same people? Are they okay? And the dorm building? Is grandpa doing fine after this?
Ittai passed the building and saw the blackened windows. "Hope it will be okay..." Ittai said to himself and ran further down the path. There Ittai saw his grandfather. Ittai stopped running and stopped beside the old man and looked at him. Grandfather was talking to a bunch of people. After a while, grandpa turned around and smiled at Ittai. By seeing Ittai's look, grandpa begun to talk. "It is alright Ittai. It were new comers to the island. And they are in good care of our doctors now. The kitchen need to be replaced, but it is fine. It didn't get out. We were lucky. Now go. If you need to, go to the hospital, but don't make it a big of wuss." Ittai bowed and told his grandfather he was going to the hospital.
Ittai run off again and made his way toward the hospital. He ran trough the door and stopped, catching some breath. "Are you alright?" A doctor asked. Ittai nodded and smiled. "I'm fine. I'm only worried about the people who came from the dorm nr 17's kitchen accident." The doctor nodded and told Ittai the way to the new people. 'Let them be okay. Let them be okay!' Ittai hoped so hard. He passed a door and saw Kagai. "NOT HIM!" Ittai stopped his own scream. And Ittai walked toward the closing door. 'Why? Why him?... And all the others?... Why?...' Ittai couldn't stop thinking about it. He opened the door and stood in the opening just watching Kagai. What should Ittai do now?

Kagai opened his eyes, waking up from the sound of his door suddenly closing and opening again. His world was still blurred, yet he could make out a figure standing in the doorway. He tried focusing his eyes, but had a hard time figuring out who it was. After a while, he recognized the person. He wanted to speak up, but he ended up coughing instead. His eyes became a little watery, yet he motioned for the person to come in. Damn it, he thought. Ittai-sempai! He's seeing me like this... It's so embarressing! Kagai wanted to blush, but he didn't even have the strength to do it. Instead, he waited for Ittai to come closer.

((Sorry to spoil the fun for a little sec here but I am a bit of an perfectionist and I know this is going to bug me in my sleep. The school's kitchen didn't catched fire, it was the kitchen in dorm nr 17, also a hospital would never allow visitors during midnight, wich it still is. Sorry for this ranting.))
"Alright thanks for your order. They will arrive tommorow morning." The voice on the other side of the mobile phone said and closed down.
Kensa looked at his phone for a few seconds before he put it back in his pocket. He was very worried about Sakito, and the rest, although the doctor from the hospital had said that everyone had minor injuries, except for Kagai, he still was worried.
After he had saved both Sakito and Kagai from the burning dorm, he was now the local hero of the school. Altough he didn't care anything about this fame, not with Sakito still in the hospital. He hoped that Ittai would return soon to tell him their state, he was just too afraid to go see for himself...
Meanwhile Sakito let out a sigh of relief from under the sheets. The tone Natsumi had just spoken with was full of confidence. If she was so certain about it, it had to be true. The night however was still long and it took quite a while ebfore he was able to shut his eyes and dream off.

((Okay Infnyte. You are right. I misread the place. For now it can still be crossover with the story. So it doesn't need much correction. But the hospital outside Europe DO allow people after midnight. As long as you are of certain status. You are allowed to enter. Of course rules still stand. Inside Europe it is harder to do so, but it still happens sometimes.))
Ittai saw Kagai moving and looking at him with a strange look. 'What should I do now? I want to comfort him... I want to help him... But maybe he doesn't want it. What if he would hate me for that if I did it now?' Ittai wasn't sure. Gathering courage, Ittai stepped forward and tried to say something. Nothing came out of his mouth.
Ittai closed his eyes and let out a light sign. 'Do it Ittai. You want it. You need to do it. It is part of your obligations as well.' Ittai opened his eyes again and had a look in his eyes. Strange. He was sure now. He really wanted it. "Kagai are you okay? Can I help you with anything. Don't speak, just nod or shake your head." Ittai layed his hands on Kagai's shoulders, in such a way he could embrace Kagai if the time would come. Ittai really wanted to take care for Kagai now. A strange feeling and still so warm. He wanted to comfort Kagai, make him feel okay. Wanted to make him better. But what could he do?
((O if anyone thinks the part of the kitchen should be fixed, you should say it out loud. So I for instance, are still able to fix the stories a bit.))
((Okay. I fixed my posts. Is it alright this way now? Beside the others posts. What can I do?))

((Kitchen part should be fixed. I understand that Ittai can visit. But I somehow can't agree with Lenna being there. If someone is just frightened, they don't bring them to a fricking hospital. >.< Besides that, she doesn't have a special status on the island or whatever so wouldn't be allowed to visit anyway. ^^'' Sorry for the rant, but like Infy it was bugging me.))
Kikyou heard both Seimei and Natsumi talk, saying that they weren't hurt badly and felt relieved. She let out a sob when Natsumi said Kagai, too, was alright.
Details of the fireaccident came back slowly bit by bit, but Kikyou didn't know if she wanted to remember. Knowing all her friends were still alive was more important right now and another pair of tears rolled down unto her pillow.
It was around midnight and Kikyou could feel sleepiness coming back. Soon she was drifting alone the border of awake and asleep. Not restless this time, but comfortable.

Kagai's eyes widened in surprise as Ittai laid his hands on his shoulders. Oh crap, he thought. What do I do now? I'm........ Kagai smiled weakly. He leaned to his left and groped around until he found the pen and paper he'd previously used to talk to the doctor and nurses. Of course, his blurred sight didn't really improve his handwriting. With slow, messy letters he wrote:
Ittai-sempai, why are you here?
Kagai looked into Ittai's eyes, looking for an answer. He then gripped the pen again and wrote:
Do you know what happened?

Ittai nodded and looked concerned. "Yes, I do know what happened. Well for a part. The kitchen in dorm nr 17 got fire and it seems that you got into it. And for the matter why I am here..." Ittai sighed. "I came to see who had gotten into it. And now I found you, I am here to be there for you... I want to help you... I-..." In a reaction, Ittai tried to hug Kagai. Ittai wanted to hold him and comfort him. "I wanna help you and... I~" Ittai just couldn't say it.
