  Megumi stared in shock before hurriedly pushing away Momiji gently. Momiji was frozen, the reassuring beats of her heart were absent.

"Heart...Girl?" He whispered hoarsely.

She didn't move. Her chest was still, her skin was slowly being sucked of warmth. Her warm, honey colored eyes were blank and staring into nothing.

Megumi pushed down on her chest three times before blowing air forcefully into her.

He never paused while addressing Momiji.

"Go up." Blowing air. "Get ready to lead them-" Blowing air. "Here. Be quick." Before he turned back.

Hinata's blank eyes broke their spell they had entranced him into and he ran, he ran faster than he thought was possible.

A few tense minutes past before an ambulance came.

He led the paramedics to where Megumi was still trying to pump life back into the lifeless body.

Momiji closed his eyes and turned away as they began to shock her back to life.

1 shock.

2 shocks.

3 shocks.

4 shocks.

5 shocks.

"We've got a heartbeat!"the paramedic feeling her pulse suddenly said.

"Hurry, take her up."

"Kids, I know this must be a distressing situation but I need you to answer a few questions." The paramedic said gently.

Momiji turned to her with his shell shocked eyes and barely managed a nod. Megumi was shaking but he clenched his fists and nodded.

"Does she have any medical conditions?"

"She...she has a weak heart." Megumi murmured.

"How weak?"

"She can't run without it acting up."

"Ok, is she on any medication for it?"

"Her doctor, Hatori Sohma prescribed her medication." Momiji spoke up, his hands were shaking violently.

"We know him, we'll call him down don't worry. Now, do you know how this attack may have been triggered and what exactly happened?"

"We...we..." Momiji's voice broke and he hung his head.

"We were going to watch a movie together. I was waiting for them at the theater and Momiji had sent her ahead so he could get ready. When he got there and saw Hinata wasn't there he was anxious and we went to go look for her. We found her phone on the sidewalk next to a trench that led in the forest and we came down to find her here. That's all. I...we think she may have fallen or was attacked." Megumi said, clutching Momiji's shoulder in reassurance.

Momiji tried for a smile but came up with a grimace.

"Ok, thank you for your time. One of you can come with us but be quick." The paramedic smiled before hurrying to the ambulance.

"Megumi." Momiji murmured.

"It's okay, you can go. I know-"

"No, I need you to go." He whispered, looking pained but determined.

Megumi stared at him for a moment before understanding dawned on him.

"It was that Akito guy, wasn't it?"
