Life After Hope's Peak

Chapter 15 - Hospital

*Kyoko's pov*

After leaving I went straight to the reception desk to find out where Toko was because I was finished with that jerk.

I went up to the desk and asked the receptionist "One of my friends was brought here earlier today I was wondering if you could tell me where she is"

She looked at me and said "Yes I can tell you but is that child your's?"

"Yes she mine" I told her.

She gave me a disapproving look but then looked on her computer, "what was your friends name?" She asked.

"Toko Fukawa" I told her.

"There's no one here with that name" she replied.

"She had multiple deep wounds, she may not have been named as she wasn't awake when she was brought here" I explained.

"Oh her well she is being kept an eye on by police so you will have to talk to them if you want to see her, she is in the room at the end of the corridor" she said pointing down a long hallway.

"Thankyou" I said as I quickly began to make my way down to find Toko.

*Makoto's pov*

Kyoko and Lydia had been gone for some time now but we were still with Byakuya. I didn't know where she had gone but I was sure I would see her soon, probably at home. That was if we were allowed home.

Byakuya was seeming to be better in spirits and not as depressed or upset like he was earlier. The nurses said that they would need to keep him in tonight to keep an eye on him but he should be fine tomorrow to go home.

I wasn't sure what we would be doing tonight with sleep wise but hopefully we would find out soon.

Asahina had said she was going to go and find Kyoko so that left me and Byakuya alone.

"How did you ever form a relationship with Kyoko?" Byakuya  asked.

"Honestly I'm not sure we just sort of clicked" I replied.

"I can tell she doesn't like me, but that's fine I've never needed her to like me" he said.

"I think she does like you, I mean she is just a bit frustrated and worried at the moment that's all" I told him.

"What does she have to worry about, last time I checked she was fine and her life was going well" he remarked.

"She's okay but work hasn't been very nice to her recently and she has a kid to look after and not even to mention she cares a lot about all of us" I told him, "I'm sure even you could tell she is desperately worried about Toko, with her injeries also now the police are onto her"

Byakuya was quiet for a while before saying "Hmm I guess you are right Makoto, she does take us into consideration a lot"

I just smiled at him because I could see him slowly changing to become more considerate of others.

*Kyoko's pov*

When I got to the end of the corridor I peered into the room to see if Toko was there. I saw her lying on the bed motionless with a doctor and police officer talking over her. I was about to knock until I caught what they were talking about

"Is it even worth helping her, she is a serial killer" the officer said.

"Well I've given my word to help all of my patient's no matter what they have done" the doctor replied.

"But if we just leave her and say she died from her injeries then we will have one less criminal on our hands" he tried to convince the doctor.

This was being completely unprofessional and there was no way I would let him kill her. I just walked in without knocking and the pair of them looked at me.
