Virgil and Roman were snuggled up in bed, ready to go to sleep. That's when Virgil's phone rang out Welcome To The Black Parade. Virgil tried not to cry and cursed at himself for putting it as his ringtone. He grabbed his phone and answered it.

"Hello?" Virgil said, sitting up.

"Virgil, I need you to come quick!" Virgil's mom yelled through the phone.

"Why? What happened?" Virgil heard the panic in his mother's voice.

"Your father... he's had a heart attack," Virginia said.

"What!?" Virgil yelled, causing Roman to sit up and look at him.

"Please come quick, Bane and Synn are already here," Virginia said.

Virgil thought for a moment. His father was known to have heart problems since his blood sugar was always high. Virgil sighed, "Alright, I'll be there in ten minutes."

Virgil hung up. Roman looked at him and asked, "What happened?"

"My father had a heart attack, I need to go to the hospital right now," Virgil said, getting out of bed.

"Wait for me," Roman said, also getting out of bed.

Roman and Virgil ran into the hospital and saw Virginia, Bane, and Synn. Virginia was crying in her seat while Bane was resting his head on Synn's shoulder, trying not to cry.

Virgil walked to his mother and spoke up, "Mom."

Virginia looked up at Virgil. She stood up and hugged him.

"Is he dead...?" Virgil asked.

"N-No... he's still alive, let's hope he stays that way," Virginia muttered and cried on Virgil's shoulder.

"Darkson?" A voice spoke up. Virginia, Virgil, Roman, Synn, and Bane looked up and saw the nurse.

"I'm Virginia Darkson, is there any news about my husband?" Virginia asked.

"Yes, some very good news. He's going to live, but he's just resting for now." She said.

"Thank God..." Virginia muttered. She looked at the nurse and asked, "When can we go see him?"

"When he wakes up, which will be in about thirty minutes." She smiled.

"Alright, thank you."

"No problem." The nurse said and walked away.

Everyone sat down and waited. Virgil rested his head on Roman's shoulder. Roman grabbed and held Virgil's hand, softly playing with Virgil's fingers.

"He's going to be alright, Virgil," Roman said.

"Yeah..." Virgil muttered.
