Scattered Wishes

Chapter 2

Last time in Scattered Wishes:

"Kuroko! God damn it, Kuroko!" Kagami screamed at his friend, who was barely conscious that time. "Stay with me! I'll call for help! Kuroko, stay with me!"

"Why... did you guys... l-leave me...?"

Riiing... Riiiiiing... Riii-

"What do you want?" Aomine asked harshly, annoyed at the fact that his sleep was interrupted.

For once, practice was canceled and now Bakagami had to interrupt it.

"Don't you 'what do you want' me, Aomine." Kagami said in a very cold tone.

"What's with that attitude? If you called just to-" Aomine's sentence was cut off when he heard Kagami's shout of "ARGH! CAPTAIN YOU TALK TO HIM! I JUST CAN'T!" followed by a "Hello," from Seirin's captain.

"This might come as a shock," Hyuuga said as he sighed. "But please, come to Tokyo General Hospital-"

"What happened to Tetsu?!" Aomine gripped the phone very tightly as he said this, eyes wide in shock and anger.

"You will know once you and the other members of the Generation of Miracles are here."

With the tone of Hyuuga's voice, Aomine immediately knew that it was very serious.

"We'll be there soon," Aomine promised as he ended the call. He started dialing Kise's number.

"Aominechii~ You remembered meeeee~!" Kise's annoying singing voice was heard but didn't pierce through Aomine's blank mind.

After throwing his cellphone to Hyuuga, Kagami paced in front of the emergency room's door, punched a nearby wall, mutter to himself, stop himself from screaming in frustration, and then start again from pacing.

Riko, who would normally reprimand Kagami and tell him to sit down, was lost in her thoughts. Why did Kuroko try to commit suicide?

"Why did he..." Koganei, for once, was lost and didn't know how to finish his sentence.

"I don't know... Koganei-kun..." Riko answered blankly.

'I do,' Kagami thought darkly. 'wait until those bastards come here. You'll know Kuroko's reason.'

a painful hour passed for the members of the Seirin's basketball team when they heard a familiar shout of:

"Tetsu/Kurokocchi!" which came from Aomine and Kise themselves. Midorima was running behind the two with a straight face but in his eyes, you can clearly see the panic hidden in those green eyes.

"WHAT HAPPENED?!" Kise demanded as soon as they reached the Seirin team.

Riko was about to tell the three members of the Generation of Miracles when Kagami punched Aomine on the face.

"Kagami/Kagami-kun/Kagamicchi!" Everyone said in shock.

"You bastard-!" Aomine said angrily but was cut off by Kagami.

"NO! YOU! YOU AND THE REST OF THE MIRACLES AS THE ONES WHO ARE THE BASTARDS!" Kagami fumed but controlled his voice knowing that they were in the hospital.

"Kagami-kun...?" Riko said.

"Kuroko... Kuroko jumped off our school's rooftop... Kuroko committed suicide because of YOU!" Kagami said with pure venom laced in his voice.

Kise, (who was about to help Aomine stand up) Midorima, (who dropped his lucky item for the day) and Aomine (who was about to stand up from the floor) all froze when they heard the word suicide.

"Kuroko/Kurokocchi/Tetsu... committed suicide...?" The three of them didn't want to believe it but with the looks from the Seirin members and how angry Kagami looked, they knew it was true.

"Kuroko muttered before he lost consciousness... 'Why did you leave me?'" Kagami said as he turned his back on them.
