The fun begins

[Kenji]

Kenji's eyes went wide and he let go of Mika and pushed through the doctors as he heard the monitor. He looked down at her, everything seeming to slow around him, he leaned over his body arching over hers as he took her face in his hands and kissed her sweetly, that famuliar warm energy flowing through her. He would give his life for hers, hed die for her without a regret in the world.

[Royce]

It was over. It was done. Hawatha was gone, and Royce was on her knees, holding to her stomach as she sobbed softly. Keira, and both Tristan's moved over to her, kneeling beside her and hugging her tight.

"Now Royce...you've got to go back now.."

Royce looked up and sighed. "But..."

"No buts, Roycey...you've got to go back. Can't you feel it?" Keira cut in worriedly as she glanced to Tristan.

"Feel what?" Royce asked wearily, looking between her two old friends.

It was Little Tristan that tugged on her hand, pulling at her as his little nose scrunched up and eyes filled up with tears. "Momma...go back. Daddy's dying. He's dying..go back NOW..."

It was then that Royce grew still, lifting her eyes. It took but a moment, as she realized what they were talking about. "Kenji NO!"

And she immediately seemed to fade from that clearing.

As that energy moved from Kenji to her, well, it only lasted by a mere few seconds as Royce's hands suddenly shot up, shoving Kenji up as those eyes opened. The heart monitor also in that split second began to beep once again rather rapidly as her heart seemed to...kick start itself. "Kenji no!"

It had meant to be forceful...but it came out sounding extremely soft and weak. Green rimmed pupils looked to Kenji, then slid shut as her arms fell back to the bed. Her body was exhausted from the inner struggle. She murmured just as soft... "It's...o'er. I'm..fine..." And with that...she drifted to sleep.

[Kenji]

He looked down at her and his body seemed to let all the worry go and he almost collapsed against her his arms wrapping around her and holding onto her softly as she slept. "Dumb bitch... you scared me.." he murmured and caressed her cheek softly.

[Royce]

Mika brought her hands to her face, rubbing at it as she trembled. Kenji's words were mirroring her own. Finally she looked up and around at all the doctors and nurses who just looked lost. It wasn't them, afterall, that managed to make a difference, and now it was her turn to be the mean bitch. She gave a sudden snarl, those brown hues flashing yellow. "Alright..nothin' more ta see her. Get th' fuck out...and you...nurse...get some fresh sheets an' bedclothes for her.."

Eventually everyone had left, and Mika came walking back into the room with the fresh sheets and stuff, moving over to set them down on the chair near Kenji. "Look..I need ta go..I'll stop by tomorrow, alright?" She looked to Royce, and patted Kenji's shoulder, before turning and leaving.

As for Royce, she was back to breathing evenly, this time truly asleep ..not in a coma.

This drama was at a close.
