Super Sekken Story 1: The Ki to the Headmaster

Vol. 4, Ch. 9: The Hot Tamale

Volume 4 POV: Third Person POV

In the beginning, there was darkness.

Then one day, there was light.

It was a bright light, one that pried the shut eyelids of Miyuki's open to see the world around her. It was another evening at the hospital, one that was filled with vast pain her chest, taking medication, and resting in the hospital bed. There were bandages wrapped over her chest where she had surgery to fix two broken ribs. Her ribs weren't the only things bandaged, Miyuki's nose had some treatment too after it was crushed under the strength of Erin Seijo.

Though it was three days later, she still remembered that day like it was yesterday. The anxiety, the pain, the destruction... it was all over, though. That was what she had hoped, at least. She recalls not killing the man who was trying to kill her, just knocking him out, so there was still some residing fear in her heart that Erin Seijo would return to finish the job. Miyuki wanted to be sure that he wouldn't see her again. The last thing the first year wanted was to get into another fight, especially with these injuries she has sustained from that last.

    "H-heeey..." Miyuki weakly called out to the nurse in the room, waving a hand. The nurse would wave back, then walk over to Miyuki.

    "Hi! How are you feeling? Have you ate anything yet today?"

    "I- I'm fine... actually, scratch that, my chest hurts. I have a hard time smelling anything either... having a broken nose sucks"

    "Yeah... good to see that you're recovering from that nasty fight."

    Miyuki sighed, lowering a hand to grip the bottom of the bed frame, then attempting to pull herself out of the bed. Though she wanted to get up so badly, the pain in her chest told her to rest otherwise.

    "Careful there! You have a few days before it would be safe for you to go."

    Miyuki just laid back in the hospital bed, taking another deep breath. After gathering her senses and taking a short break, she wondered if the nurse had the answers to the necessary questions Miyuki needed answered. "H-hey... how's... he doing?"

    "Who?"

    "Seijo. Y-You know, the red haired kid in karate robes?" Miyuki explained, then stretching her neck out to look around the room for that boy. "The one who attacked me" she'd point to the hospital bed just a few spots down.

    "Oh! That boy... we've taken care of him too. He's been treated for brain damage from the fracture in his head. He's been out in a coma since he's been here." the nurse explained, looking at the red haired boy that Miyuki was pointing at.

    Brain damage? She hit him against that window so hard that he sustained such a life changing injury... would he remember their fight? Would he remember I-35? Manaka? Megami? She didn't know...

    "W-What about the police?"

"The police? What are you talking about?"

    "The police. I heard sirens before I passed out"

    The nurse looked at me with confusion, then looked back at Seijo, then back at me. "I'm sorry, I don't recall hearing anything about the police getting involved. You may check with the front desk."

    ("Really? No police? Those sirens couldn't have just been a coincidence. I need to know... I don't want to be surprised by police men when I walk out these doors.") Miyuki would then grab the bottom of her bed frame once more, beginning to pull herself harder off of the bed she rested in.

    "Wait, Miyuki, what are you doing? You can't go yet!"

    "E-Errgh! GOD that hurts!" Miyuki winces, pulling herself onto her feet and looking up at the nurse. "You said I could go check with the front desk, right?"
