Also sorry for no updates for more than a freaking month ;-;
I've re-read Momma CQ and GOD I feel so much resentment towards Fresh yet at the same time he's brilliant.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I squealed in sheer joy. Momma and aunt Xed hugged me while Fatal was making surprised and excited noises. "Yo yo! What's with all the tears?" Someone called, stepping into the room.
Fresh, with Error behind him.
"Geno?!?!" Error asked in disbelief. "You're back?!"
I couldn't respond from being smothered my momma and aunt Xed. I hugged them back, missing them all more than anything. "Oh, Geno sweetie!" momma smiled broadly, tears in her eyes.
"Why are you crying momma?" I asked in worry. "W-what happened?"
"Oh, Geno!" she hugged me again. "You were in the hospital for the past few weeks! A-and now you just appear out of nowhere!!"
rrrrRRRRRIIINNGGG!!!!
Aunt Xed looked over her shoulder and scurried to the phone. "Yes? Yes, he's here! Thank you so much! Yes, of course. Again, thank you!" she hung up. She turned to momma and smiled. "That was the hospital. They were asking if we had Geno."
"We got him!" momma hugged me tighter. Error was reaching up, clearly wanting to hug me as well. Momma set me down, letting Error and Fatal embrace me.
"WE MISSED YOU!!" Fatal squeaked. He rarely raised his voice above a whisper, so it was a surprise to hear him shout.
"I missed you too!"
~~~~~Time Skip~~~~~
It had been a few days since I came home. Everything was normal, I felt completely safe. Everything was great!
I woke up to my alarm. It rang every few hours, telling me I needed to take my medication. I looked over to my bedside table as I turned the alarm off, where I had all my things. On it was a picture of momma, aunt Xed, Fatal, Error, Fresh, and me. But today it looked different. It had a picture of me and someone else. Another skeleton that wore a black cloak. He was hugging me from behind, and we both looked happy. He looked like Death himself. It scared me, but when I blinked, it changed back to normal.
Maybe I was just seeing things, but it felt as if I've seen him before. I shrugged it off. He could've very well been someone I've seen at the hospital.
I opened my drawer and took out my medication. I grabbed by bottle of water and took my meds. I layed back down, still tired.
~~~~~A few days later~~~~~
Everyday something changes, only to go the way it was before. Sometimes the photos would change to the cloaked skeleton and I. Sometimes I would find little sheets of paper that said things like 'wake up'; 'please wake up'; 'don't leave me'; or 'can you hear me?'. As son as I blinked or looked away, they vanished. Once, I even woke up with a book of stories on my bed. I still have it with me.
It felt like someone was trying to tell me something, and it made me feel like something was missing.
I never dreamt. The nights would go by fast. No one else seemed to be seeing what I saw, so I didn't say anything, hoping it would go away.
Then one day, I thought of everything while lying in bed. I really took time to think about everything that I've been seeing. I was awake, so what was it trying to tell me? What was the 'it'? Was it the cloaked skeleton? If so, what was he trying to tell me? Am I just loosing it?
Then, a little sheet of paper landed on me. It fell from nowhere. It was a full note that read -in semi-bed hand writing-:
"Geno? Geno...? Can you hear me??? I h-hope you can hear m-me...."
Small dots of water dotted the paper, as if someone was crying. For some reason, I wanted whoever it was to stop crying. I wanted to make them feel better. The way it was written was as if someone was speaking.
"Please....p-please....wake up....please wake up....they've started t-to give u-up....you h-have to wake up....p-please Geno-...wake up soon....please th-they're only going f-for a-a few more days b-before they...be-before they......"
The note ended. Who was they? Before they what? I'm awake! Just then, another note fell from nowhere.
"Please....Geno, don't leave m-me....please d-don't l-leave...I-I've stayed with y-you as m-much as I could...th-they think I-I a-am weird f-for t-talking wh-while y-you're not a-awake...b-but I-I kn-know y-you can hear me...I-I can feel it.... I know you can hear me... You're soul...it's trying s-so hard to stay together-G-Geno...? Geno! GENO-"
The rest was a jumble of things, from "DON'T TAKE ME FROM HIM!!"; "GENO!!!"; "DON'T DIE!"; and...on the last line... "Please don't die..."
~~~~~Reaper's P.O.V.~~~~~
"STOP IT!!!" I screamed, kicking. The doctors pulled me away from Geno. I was scared senseless. Geno's soul was breaking. It was shattering. "LET ME GO!!!" I shrieked. "HE'S STILL ALIVE!!!"
"Get him out!" one of the doctors sighed. "He shouldn't see this-"
"GENO!" I shrieked in pure desperation. Several blue attacks appeared from nowhere. They shot out in different directions, pinning the doctors to the wall.
I sprinted towards Geno. His weak blue soul was hovering above his chest, slowly tearing apart. Only about half was left. I went to his side, the doctors demanding for me to let them go. I barely heard them, barely processing my movements.
I cupped what was left of his soul in my hands. Only a shard. Only a shard of his soul was left...and it wasn't shattering. I prayed and begged for him not to die, tears rolling down my face. It was incredible how Geno still wasn't awake, but he looked like he was struggling to hold on.
His soul shard stopped breaking. I wasn't near relieved, till scared for him. It glowed a soft green as I healed him. It wasn't enough to bring the rest of his soul back, but he was alive...and that's what matters.
"-the problem is his soul isn't producing enough magic to run his body like it needs to- this is what's causing his breathing problems, his frailty-" the new voice stopped. I turned around to see a new doctor walking in with nurse CQ. They both froze for a moment, then CQ began to run forward.
"STAY AWAY!" I scream, scared. "STAY AWAY FROM GENO!!!!" She and the other doctor became held in place by magic. I turned back to Geno. I gently and carefully continued to heal him, not knowing if it did anything. I didn't care if I was loosing HP from using so much magic and healing at once. All I wanted was for Geno to be alright. I never left his side ever since he entered his coma. I barely ate, only making my HP go down faster.
