Promise ME (leopika fanfic)

Voices

'Wake up you son of a bitch! You have never given up on anything in your whole life! I won't let you die in a place like this! You stubborn bitch breathe! Breathe!' That voice sounded so familiar... Why was it so dark? I slowly opened my eyes and looked at the white flowers that surrounded me. The sun beating down on my face and the wind smelled sweet instead of like smog. " Kurapika! Where are you?," I heard my name slowly echo from off the wind and my heart stopped. It sounded so familiar as I rose to my knees and looked up at the forest that surrounded the flowery medow. There was a lot of pain in the voice that I heard, and for some reason it reminded me of... My heart stopped as I watched a female walk towards me. Her blonde hair curled around her chin and her white dress hugged her body in such a way that it made her curves pop.

"Kurapika," she said my name sternly and my heart stopped as I slowly stood up with a shaky hand reached out to her. Tears stung my eyes as I shook my head in disbelief because it couldn't be her, that would mean that I was- "Mom?," I whispered softly and she gave a smile that made her brown eyes shine. Her teeth were white and there were no scars on her face but I could never forget the ugly deep gashes that they had mutilated her with. They would all pay for what they had done to her. The would all pay dearly for what they did to her- But I was... if I could see her and touch her that meant that I died before... "Kurapika? Where have you been?," she asked again with a small smile as I rushed into her arms trying to hold back tears that stung in my eyes. She was so warm and I could hear her beating heart against my ear as she ran her fingers through my hair while humming to herself.

"I've waited so long to see you again. You've grown so beautiful," she said as she held my head to her chest and I bit my lip to hold back tears that fell anyway. I stopped as I pulled away to look down at my bloody robes that hugged my body tight and stained the front of her white dress. She gave a weak smile and sadness filled her eyes as she stared at my clothes as if they were going to magically changed. Judging by the hope in her eyes I had to assume that was what normally happened when people woke up in this strange place. I didn't care where I was because she was here and well in front of me, which meant that everyone else had to be here too. "Kurapika...," she whispered as she closed her eyes allowing a couple of tears to fall down her slender face and I watched them gleam gold against the sun that blinded me.

"Mom? What's wrong?," I asked slowly and she wiped her eyes with her wrist before looking up at me once more. Her once rosy cheeks had turned pale as she looked up at me with a slight smile trying to shake away the tears. "Nothing is wrong. There is so much to tell you and me and you don't have much time. Just like before," she said with slight regret in her voice and I looked down at my feet to see them bare and bruised. "I'm sorry that I wasn't a better mother to you. I am sorry that you didn't fit in anywhere, and I'm sorry that your father still hasn't changed his opinion on you. You are always welcomed in my heart but his only grew colder when you were taken from his hands so hastily. I hope that you understand Kurapika that we will always love you, and no matter what you do or say...".

"Mom? What are you talking about? We are together again. We have all the time in the world now that death has taken both of us in his hands," I said in slight regret because a part of me wanted still vengeance while the other part of me was glad to be home. I could tell by her eyes that she was thrilled to see me but that didn't changed the fact that me and my father never did read the same page. I didn't care what he said as long as I could lay in her arms for a little while longer before I would wake up alone in my bed. "...You'll always be a part of this clan. You will always be loved from everyone in the village and we are proud to call you our new angle that watches over our graves. You have lost your way my son but I know that you will find your own medicine that will save you from your illness. I cannot stay by your bedside like when you were a child but I will watch you to make sure that you behave," she smiled.

"What are you-," I stopped as I heard something shout in the distance and looked over my shoulder to see nothing but more field. "Kurapika!," I looked over my shoulder again as I heard the voice but this time I could tell that it was a male but it was to fuzzy to completely understand. "You have to go back Kurapika, it isn't your time," she said and I looked back at her with wide eyes before shaking my head. I couldn't leave her again, not when she was just able to be held in my arms again so alive and warm. "Mom!," I shouted as she slowly turned away and walked away, with each step she became what she had always been, light itself. Tears stung my eyes as I shook them away and closed my eyes before screaming to the sky as loud as I could. It was so unfair!

"Kurapika!," I opened my eyes to look into a pair of brown eyes that were covered by a mask and brown reading glasses. My eyes wondered as I listened to the sound of mumbled voices and the people around me talking to each other while they pushed me along. Where was I? I looked over my shoulder at the white walls and people in white lab coats, I had to be at the hospital but I didn't remember the ride. My body pulsed and I looked at the wires sticking out of my arm and my eyes tightened as I felt something sharp go into my neck. I screamed out as two hands pushed my shoulders down and a mask was forced over my mouth while I bit my tongue. My eyes flew opened and I looked at faces covered by light and gloved covered hands holding me down as they held up needles. Tears arose in my eyes as I fought with my heart racing and pounding in my ears almost as loud as my heart.

"Let me go!," I mumbled through the mask and my chains wrapped around my wrist because my mind was so hazy that I wasn't able to control my nein. I could taste vomit on the back of my throat as they released me to held me over the side of the bed as my body heaved. I felt a pair of strong hands on my back as they held me steady as my vision went blurry because I could taste blood on my tongue. "Get some pain killers! Don't give up on me Kurapika," I heard a voice whisper in my ear and I looked over my shoulder to see a pair of sharp brown eyes that looked all to familiar. Leorio? I held my breath as I fell limp in the man's arms as he tried to lay me back down to put the mask back on but I turned my head away. I didn't want to go back asleep because I knew that it was possible that I would never wake up again.

"Kurapika you need to take this," he urged quietly to me so that the many doctors around us wouldn't be able to over hear on our conversation. I looked at him from the corner of my eye with tears lightly dripping down the side of my face, stinging my contacts. I stopped as he slowly used his finger to make me face him and it was then it was clear to me that the man in front of me was Leorio. His mouth covered my a thin blue mask and his glasses had been replaced by a think pair of blue glasses that matched his blue surgery uniform. His hair wasn't spiked up so it fell around limp making him appear a thousand years younger than he looked when we had first met. His skin was tanner than when we had met last and he had gotten muscular from carrying patients from one place to another. I had to smile a little, his dreams had came true and a part of me was jealous that he seemed to be doing just fine without me there.

"I promise that when you wake up I will be right here beside you. You have glass in your chest that has to be removed before it reaches your heart or...," he stopped as I parted my lips lightly and I could feel my body slipping to numbness from the drugs that they had given me earlier. My eyelids felt heavy and every word that he said sounded like a loud ringing in my ears as I forced my eyes open so I could watch his mouth move. Why did he care? Oh, that's right. This was his job for him to be nice to me, and I knew that if we were alone he would apologize for how he treated me. It was always a human habit to be nice to people when they were laying on their death bed and they had to get their say in things. I bit my lip to make pain so that I would stay awake and I felt the plastic slowly touch my skin and a tube went into my mouth lightly. I opened my eyes into slit to see him hanging over me with his eyes studying my face to make sure that I wouldn't die on him.

"Hold on Pika," He whispered and looked over at the nurse that was holding a needle with yellow liquid in the pusher. He bit his lip as she grabbed my limp arm and my eyes slammed shut as they whole world became more and more fuzzy. 'Leorio...' I thought to myself before the whole world went silent, once again alone in a world full of black with tears streaming down my face.
