Project: Finding Vory; The Beginning

Level 3

Ryu's POV

Bang-Dgg-Dgg-Dgg ...

A loud thud was heard from the first floor. Aji and I both looked at each other while mouthing, "Kiro". Fucking Shit Kiro, What are you doing? Aji and I both rushed outside the room as were hoping nothing bad happens.

As we nearly walk towards the stairs, we saw a red liquid dripping from the top stairs down to the bottom. "Fuck, Kiro, Okay ka lang?" Aji shouted loudly, but no response. Kiro is a prankster but he definitely won't go that far to scare us.

"Kiro, Pre, nasaan ka?" still no response. My heart was pounding loudly as we slowly walk downstairs. The light was out and our only light source was the lamppost creeping from the nearby window.

"I'll go first, Hanapin mo yung switch, Ryu" Aji looked at me intently while whispering. 

"Copy that, let's go" My heart won't stop pounding as we slowly reach the end of the stairs. At the very end, we saw an unconscious body lying down, with broken glass in his hand.

"Fuck, Kiro, Gising" I lost my strength to even stand up. The sight of my unconscious friend lying down brings back many unsightly memories. I was panicking and it's getting too hard for me to breathe.

"Ryu, snap out of it" I can hear Aji shouting but I was panicking. "Fucking Shit Ryu, are you okay? Can you hear me Pre?" Aji's panicking voice made me snapped out of my reverie. My mind's a mess but I have to take care of Kiro first.

"Yeah, I'm okay. I'm sorry. I'll check Kiro's pulse first. Go and wake up Yaoi and others" Aji nodded and hurriedly went upstairs. I quickly found Kiro's pulse. 40 bpm, Fuck that's so low." Kiro, bud. Hang in there". Seconds later Aji came back with Yaoi and Kei.

"Punyeta ang dilim gago, wala man lang nakaisip magbukas ng ilaw?" Keiji's loud voice echoed throughout the first floor. "Tangina buhatin niyo muna si Kiro, dalhin natin sa hospital".

We hurriedly carried Kiro's unconscious body towards the resort's parking garage.

"Fuck, Fuck, susi" All four of us was panicking. My palms are all sweaty and my breathing's getting shorter and shorter as Yaoi drove towards the nearby Hospital.

"Kiro, pre, hang in there. W-we can get through this o-okay?" I quietly whispered in Kiro's ear as we head towards the hospital.

The nurse quickly transferred Kiro to the stretcher and called the doctor. They all left towards the Emergency room, leaving all of us in despair. We quietly sat in the nearby waiting room, praying that nothing serious will happen to Kiro. We notified Kiro's parents as well as ours. They told us they will be here soon. As per Yuji's parents' request, we didn't call Yuji. He's under a lot of stress so we'll tell him once he wakes up.

30 minutes have passed and still no news from the doctors. We're still in a state of shock and no one dared to talk. We just sit still, quietly praying for Kiro's safety.

"Teka, meron bang may dalang phone sa inyo" Keiji suddenly asks, breaking the unending silence.

"Naiwan namin ni Kiro yung samin, nagulat kami eh" Aji told the two. 

"Hala oo nga, shit yung phone ko"  I quickly remembered my phone, which I think I left in Yaoi's van even before we arrived at Yaku's resort.

"Saan mo ba naiwan?" Yaoi asked me intently

"Sa van mo ata, kanina ko po hindi hawak eh"

"Hanapin natin dali, Kei takbuhin mo kami 'pag may news na kay Kiro ah"  Yaoi and I hurriedly went to the hospital's parking. After a minute of walking, we finally arrived at Yaoi's van.
