Please Don't Forget Me ... Please

Chapter 2

Beep... Beep... Beep

The sound of the heart monitor filled the room as a gravely injured, but still unconscious Seiya laid in her bed with the healers scrambling around her to find a way to help her heal faster.

"How long is she going to be out?" asked a very concerned Princess Kakyuu as one of the healers passed by.

The healer looks at Kakyuu, carrying a bucket of water within her arms and said," We're not sure. But Lady Fighter's condition is very severe so far, My Lady. We're not sure if she'll be able to recover. However would you like to know more?"

Princess Kakyuu bows and said," No, but thank you for the information. Please take care of her."

The healer said," You're welcome." Then walks away to join the other healers so that she can cool Seiya's fever down.

Princess Kakyuu walked out of Seiya's room, tears welling up within her eyes.

Yaten looked up at Kakyuu from her place at the window, her hair falling into her eyes and said as she and Taiki looked at her anxiously for more information on Seiya's condition," How's she doing?"

Princess Kakyuu bursts into tears and said as Taiki wraps her arms around her," They're not sure if she'll be able to recover. Her health condition is very severe."

Taiki looked away from Yaten's saddened eyes, her eyes filling with distress and sadness as she continued to soothe Kakyuu and said," It's our fault that Seiya's in this condition. We should've tried harder, then Seiya wouldn't be in this state at all."

Princess Kakyuu looked up at Taiki, who had tears flowing out of her eyes, and then at Yaten, who was avoiding eye contact while playing with her hair and said," But it isn't. You two couldn't have done anything to help her or else you both would be in the same condition."

Yaten looked up at Kakyuu and said," Demo we wo-."

Princess Kakyuu moves away from Taiki and said," No ifs, ands, or buts, Healer. Fighter wouldn't want us blaming ourselves for her condition. She cares too-."

Princess Kakyuu was cut off sharply by the sound of a scream coming from within Seiya's bedroom, followed up closely by the sound of machines falling onto the floor.

Yaten and Taiki looked at each other and said in unison,"Seiya." Then ran into Seiya's room with Kakyuu and a couple of guards following behind them and stopped sharply in their tracks at the scene before them.

Seiya, who was no longer connected to any of the machines, stood in front of them in only her black spaghetti-strapped nightgown that went mid-thigh, her right hand holding an iron grip around one of the healers' neck.

Princess Kakyuu steps out from behind Yaten and Taiki, smiling hopefully at Seiya and said," Fighter, you're finally awake... Demo let go of her, onegai."

Seiya looked at Taiki, Yaten, and Kakyuu with her intense midnight blue eyes, glaring at them before looking at the struggling healer in her grasp and lets go of her.

Yaten scowls, noticing how naturally tense Seiya was and asked,"Seiya, why are you so tense? It's just us."

Seiya turned towards them, her eyes narrowing on them as she takes up a defensive stance and said," Who in the hell are you? Why do you keep on calling me Seiya and Fighter?"

Princess Kakyuu's smile fades off of her face as worry, fear, and sadness washes over her body and asked the dreaded question that everyone's wondering about Seiya,"Don't you recognize us, Fighter? We're your friends."

Seiya eyes them suspiciously, not dropping her guard and said," What are friends? And my name's NOT Seiya nor Fighter!"

Yaten narrowed her eyes back at Seiya and opened her mouth to retort back to her when all of the guards came charging at Seiya with their swords from behind them.

Princess Kakyuu gasps, watching as the guards charged at Seiya without being aware of Seiya's prodigal, yet brutal fighting skills and cried out," Don't! You'll just anger her!"

Seiya smirked at them, flipping over two of the guards' heads and drop kicks them on the back of head before following it up closely with a knee to both their backs, snapping around on time to catch a sword between her hands before delivering a drop kick into the guard's face. Then, twisting around, kicking three of the guards in the face while using the sword from one of the guards to block all of the guards' aim for her stomach.

Princess Kakyuu looked at Taiki and Yaten distressingly, who nodded at her before running towards the leader as she continued to fight with all of the guards.

Seiya snapped around once knocking out the last guard, facing Yaten and lunged towards her, twisting around to deliver a spin kick to Yaten's face when she finds herself wincing in pain when a stinging feeling started to develop on her neck before falling to the floor from sudden dizziness while clutching her neck.

"Do you suppose that she'll be OK?"

"I don't think so since surely she's suffering from amnesia from our fight 5 weeks ago."

"Should we keep watch of her?"

"Hai, demo I think it's best for Seiya to be put on..."

Taiki's voice fades out of Seiya's hearing range as her world was consumed by darkness once again.
