Celeste walked out of the room and went back to the group
"Ma'am is Himeko doing okay?" Mei asked
"Yes she's doing just fine but she can't move that much so if she tried to move tell her to rest only" Celeste said
"You don't mind if I go right?" Mei asked
"Of course not. You two have known each other for years. You can go and see her" Celeste said
"Okay. I'll be back" Mei said and walked down the hallway heading to Himeko's room
"Has Shai shown up yet?" Celeste asked
"It's worse than that. Shai ended up in the hospital" Harumin said
"Wait what!? She's in the hospital? What happened to her?" Celeste asked
"I'm not so sure. She just came in with severed injuries. She was even bleeding a lot" Harumin said
"Oh dear...why is this happening?" Celeste said and started to cry again since she cared for Shai as well. Yuzu looked up and noticed the same doctor that was working with Himeko
"Hey! Sir! Doctor!" Yuzu said calling the doctor. The doctor stopped and looked behind seeing the blonde haired woman
"May I help you ma'am?" The doctor asked
"M-my cousin Shai. How is she? Is she doing okay?" Yuzu asked
"Well there are some broken bones which is the right arm and left leg. She has lost a lot of blood so she must rest for an entire week. We were able to patch up her wounds so she'll be okay. She just needs a lot of resting before she can leave" The doctor said
"Okay. Thanks doc" Yuzu said
"No problem" The doctor said and walked away. Yuzu sighed in relief and walked back to the others
"Is she doing okay?" Celeste asked
"Yes. The doctor said they were able to patch up her wounds and everything. Though she did lost a lot of blood but all she needs is rest now. She'll be able to get out in about a week" Yuzu said as she smiled. Meanwhile Mei sat down next to Himeko
"Meimei...is it true about the police and Shai?" Himeko asked
"Oh...your mother told you?" Mei asked
"Yes...she said Shai was in the doctor's office and when she came out. She was handcuffed by the police and taken away but managed to escape. I want to see her..." Himeko said
"Don't worry. You will see her soon" Mei said
"Is she at the hospital?" Himeko asked
"Yes but...she's in the emergency room" Mei said
"Wh-what? Wait what-ugh!" Himeko groaned as she tried to get up
"No Himeko. You have to rest. You still can't move or get up" Mei said grabbing her by the shoulders
"B-but I want to see Shai. Pl-please just once..." Himeko said
"Himeko please lay back down. You will see Shai soon and she will be okay. Once the doctor allows us to visit her I'll use my healing powers on her and she'll just need to rest since the impact on the attacks must've been painful and severe" Mei said. Himeko sighed laying back down and stared at the ceiling
"So people think that Shai tried to kill me?" Himeko asked
"Yes. You know how the news spread around here. In a minute...everyone knows" Mei said
"Meimei...?" Himeko asked
"Yes?" Mei asked
"What did the doctor spoke to with Shai? I know mother said the doctor had to speak with her and after that she was handcuffed. It feels...odd and a bit wierd. Don't you think?" Himeko asked
"Yeah you are right" Mei said
"And that doctor is the same doctor that helped Shai too. Remember that incident with the three girls back then? I remember that the doctor knew Shai's father..." Himeko said
Flashback
"We will do our best to cure their wounds. They have deep cuts especially the youngest one with a deep cut near her chest area. She is lucky that they didn't stab her directly on her chest or else she could've died. As for Yuzuko she has a wound on her stomach from the back and we're hoping it didn't damage her spine. On the other hand we have Shai Okogi, she was shot and slightly stabbed but.." The doctor paused
"But what doctor?" Kallen asked
"Ma'am are you the mother of Shai Okogi?" The doctor asked
"Y-yes I am" Kallen said
"Is there by any chance her father is Shailung?" The doctor asked
"Y-yes" Kallen said
"That would explain it" The doctor said
"Explain what doctor?" Celeste asked
"Shai's body seems in a good state. Better than the rest. It seems she has some kind of special strength to keep fighting even with injuries in her body. Shailung had that as well when I checked him once..." The doctor said
End Of Flashback
"He knew her and I don't like that doctor one bit. If he talked to Shai alone and Shai came out handcuffed...then that means the doctor put the blame on her telling the police that she did it" Himeko said
"You're right and there is no evidence that she harmed you in any way but...he must've had some type of evidence to throw her in jail" Mei said
"But what's the evidence? I mean Shai didn't do anything at all" Himeko said
"One way to find out. We must have someone sneak into his office" Mei said
"And who will that be?" Himeko asked
"There is someone in mind" Mei said and smiled a bit
"Better make it quick. I don't want Shai to go back to prison. I don't want to lose her again..." Himeko said
"Don't worry Himeko. We'll make sure to help Shai out of this. Trust us" Mei said
"Heh of course I trust you guys" Himeko said and smiled
"Alright. I'll be right back and try not to move too much. Just lay down and relax" Mei said before she walked out of the room. She walked down the hallway and went back to the group
"What happened?" Yuzu asked
"Alright. Remember that doctor was the same doctor who helped you three out with the incident? You three were injured after the fight with Riana's father" Mei said
"Oh you mean that incident. What about the doctor?" Yuzu asked
"Himeko told me that the doctor knew Shailung. The doctor took Shai into his office and she came out handcuffed. That's a bit odd don't you think?" Mei asked
"Hell yeah it is. Shai would never do such a thing and I know for sure she would never hurt Momokino-san" Yuzu said
"The doctor must have something in his office as evidence and we need to find out what it is" Mei said
"How do you plan on sneaking in?" Yuzu asked
"Matsuri is going to sneak in" Mei said
"What?! Me?" Matsuri asked
"I can tell you're the perfect one for this job" Mei said
"Ugh...do I really have to?" Matsuri asked
"Yes. Do you want to Shai stuck in prison again?" Mei asked
"Fine I'll do it" Matsuri said and walked down the hallway. She looked around a bit then vanished hiding into the shadows
Now time to find this asshole's office...
Matsuri crawled towards the vents and entered inside it. She looked around until she found the doctor in his office
Hm? He's here
Matsuri got out of the vents and kept hiding in the shadows. The doctor sighed and walked up to his cabinet and pulled out a bottle. He put it down and started laughing
"I'll finally get my revenge. This is what you'll get Shailung for killing my wife and my daughter. You are going to pay for what you've done to them...by taking away your daughter's life. This is my perfect chance. I won't get another opportunity like this again" He said. Matsuri's eyes widen and covered her mouth as she felt her body tremble
Shit! Help me damnit!
The shadow within her got out holding the phone
"What are you doing?" Matsuri asked
"You need evidence if you want to help your friend out" Devil said
"Hey do you know what that liquid thing is? I have a feeling that it's bad..." Matsuri whispered
"Yeah it's some poison thing" Devil whispered
"And you're not stopping him?" Matsuri asked
"Don't worry. Just trust me on this. Not only will that liquid help your friend but it'll make her stronger..." Devil whispered
"How do you know that?" Matsuri just
"Trust me..." Devil whispered
"I have killed many patients with this treasure. Hehehe people are so pathetic. I should've probably killed that Momokino but whatever..." The doctor said and walked to the door leaving his office. Matsuri got out and coughed blood
"Hey hey calm down. Deep breaths" Devil said
"Yeah yeah. I know. Should I tell the others about this?" Matsuri asked
"I don't know but..you should check out your friend" Devil whispered. Matsuri groaned and hid in the shadows crawling back into the vents. She headed towards Shai's room and found the doctor in her room
"Hehe...I hope you said last goodbye to your bitch because you'll never see her again" The doctor said and injected Shai the substance. The doctor laughed softly and walked out of the room leaving Shai. Shai groaned and started to open her eyes
"H-hime...ko...where...are y-you?" Shai asked. Matsuri got out of the shadows and appeared beside Shai
"Shai are you feeling okay?" Matsuri asked
"Y-yeah...and...I heard that bastard. H-he tried to...kill me right?" Shai asked
"Yeah...he used some wierd liquid thing and injected you with it" Matsuri said. Shai just smiled and started laughing softly
"Why are you laughing?" Matsuri asked
"Because...I read my father's book about that liquid. He made it immune to himself which means...I'm immune to it" Shai said and giggled
"Oh so you're not going to die?" Matsuri asked
"Of course not but that bastard will still blame me about Himeko" Shai said
"Don't worry. I have evidence about him talking about his plan to kill you and that he kills his patients with it" Matsuri said holding her phone
"Hehehehe thanks" Shai said as she smiled
"Hey...can I ask what happened and how you ended up like this?" Matsuri asked
"Oh I had a fight with Diane and a bunch of guys. I guess I lost control over my powers and over did it" Shai said
"Wait...Diane?" Matsuri asked
"Yeah...that fucking bitch...but wait. How is Himeko? Is she okay? Is she alive?" Shai asked
"Yeah Eyebrows is doing okay. She finally woke up and is doing okay but she's worried about you..." Matsuri said
"Awww...hehe tell her that I miss her" Shai said
"Sure thing. Oh and Mei-san will probably help you with your injuries and heal them" Matsuri said
"Hehe okay then and thanks" Shai said

Himeko was in her room breathing heavily. She gripped the bedsheets tightly and groaned feeling odd
Sh-shit...why does everything hurt even more? Ugh...i-it feels like I can't breathe. I need to g-get out of here...
"Sh-shai...come back..." Himeko whispered and trembled. She grabbed her head and groaned
"F-fuck!" Himeko said and growled a bit
"How's the little bitch doing?" Someone spoke beside her. Her eyes widen and turned around seeing herself but the other her had her hair down and her eyes seemed much more dull
"Wh-what? No...huh? What the hell? What? Y-you...who?" Himeko asked
"I'm you and you're me. You and I are the same person" She spoke
"N-no I'm hallucinating! This isn't real" Himeko said and shut her eyes tightly trying to clear her mind. She opened her eyes and saw the other her gone
"Oh so I was hallucinating..." Himeko said and sighed in relief
"Who's hallucinating?" She spoke. Himeko gasped and turned around seeing her again
"Wh-what? What's wrong with me? St-stay away" Himeko said
"I'm not going to hurt you or anything but let me ask you something...do you want to kill?" She asked
"K-kill?" Himeko asked
"Yes. Kill. There are many people out there that you could kill" She said
"Wh-why would I want to kill?" Himeko asked
"Huh? You don't want to kill for Shai?" She asked
"What? Kill for Shai?" Himeko asked
"Yes...because you know...many people want Shai. People like..Diane" She said whispering Diane's name. Himeko's eyes widen and trembled a abit hearing her name
"Th-that woman...Diane who...claimed to be...h-her girlfriend.." Himeko mumbled as she stared at the ceiling
K-kill Diane? For Sh-shai?
