Amon
Where on earth had Michael run off
to? Robin had already been admitted and was now receiving care, but where was
Michael? Amon couldn’t remember when he’d left. He remembered helping Sakaki
get Robin from the back seat, then carrying her inside. The nurses at the desk
had rushed over, and gotten help for her. Amon moved the car, filled out papers
for Robin, and then joined Sakaki in the waiting room. When he entered the
room, he expected Michael to be there with Sakaki, but he wasn’t. After asking
around, Amon found out that the nurses hadn’t seen him come in.
Amon needed Michael. All Michael
would have to do is sit there and Amon would feel better. But Amon was
distraught. His stomach hurt. He needed Michael there with him. He looked over
to Sakaki.
Sakaki was staring at the floor, his
legs bouncing nervously and his hands gripping the arms of the chair he sat in.
He hadn’t moved from that position since Amon came in the first time. Amon
wasn’t even sure that Sakaki noticed he was sitting right next to him. Amon
sighed. He needed a break. He patted Sakaki’s shoulder. Sakaki looked at him, and
the bouncing ceased.
“I’m going outside for a little
while.” Sakaki’s nod was automatic; Amon was sure he hadn’t heard a word. He
patted his shoulder again and stood up. He walked out of the room and looked at
the signs that told him where to go to reach certain places. One of those
places was the cafeteria. Cafeteria.
Amon hurried towards it, snaking
through a series of halls to get to it. To reach the cafeteria’s entrance from
the side of the hospital Amon stood on, he had to walk down a long hall. The
left wall was all windows, and through the windows was the cafeteria. They were
several people inside. Amon didn’t see Michael. He went inside to get a better
look, but still didn’t find him. He got a small cup of coffee and headed back
through the halls to reach the lobby. Through there, he left the hospital.
Outside was cool. Not to say that
the hospital wasn’t cold, but outside, it felt natural. Amon sat down on one of
the benches and sighed to himself. He took a sip of his coffee and leaned back.
He looked among the different people standing out there. Some were smoking and
others were looking impatient. Amon noticed he was the only one sitting. He
didn’t mind that. He was tired and he didn’t feel like standing up. He took
another sip of his coffee, perking when he heard the click clack of heeled
shoes on the pavement. He looked up and saw that Touko was running over to him.
He stood up quickly. She stopped in front of him and grabbed on to his arm.
“Amon,” she said, her breath coming
out in heavy pants. “I’m so glad I caught up with you.”
“What is it?” Amon asked.
“Where’s…where’s Robin?”
“She’s inside, getting treatment.”
Touko placed a hand on her chest and sat down on the bench. “What’s going on?”
Amon asked her.
“You…you should be okay here,” she
said.
“What do you mean by that?” Touko
swallowed hard, then looked up at Amon.
“I’m…I’m sorry,” she said. “I… There’s
something I have to tell you.”
Michael
“So, what are we waiting for?”
Michael asked. “This is kind of awkward…being in a hospital room and all.”
“Be patient,” Zaizen said. Michael
could tell Zaizen was more anxious than he was. He stood up and walked around
the room.
“Why here?” he asked. “Can’t we turn
on some lights?”
“Just be patient.” Zaizen looked at his
watch and then went over to the window and looked out.
“We should talk,” Michael said.
“It’ll help pass the time.”
“I have nothing more to say to you.
You’ve been nothing but a pain since we’ve acquired you.”
“Well, what do you expect, with
someone like you as my boss…?” Michael said. Zaizen went quickly over to
Michael and struck him in the face. Michael, caught off guard, stumbled back
and fell over, knocking several items down with him as he fell.
“Shit,” Zaizen said. Michael figured
it was because of all the noise he’d made on his way down. Zaizen went over to
the door and opened it. He looked up and down the hall, then
came back in. Belatedly, Michael felt the pain growing in his jaw. He worked it
slightly, and held his hand to his mouth. He remained on the floor for the
time.
Zaizen went back over to the window.
He pulled out his phone and dialed a number, then put the receiver to his ear.
“Where are you?” he asked. “Good.
Come up here right away.” Zaizen hung up and turned to Michael. “You realize I
can’t let you go?”
“I don’t remember you ever setting
me free,” Michael said. “You own me, remember?” He shook his head and picked at
his shoes. “This really sucks,” he said. “And it’s not a good idea to use cell
phones in hospitals.” Zaizen didn’t respond. Two minutes later, someone knocked
on the door. Zaizen walked over and opened the door. It was Touko. Great.
“You’re late,” Zaizen said to Touko.
Touko walked inside, shrugging her jacket from her shoulders.
“Somehow,” she said. “I feel my
timing is perfect.” Touko looked down at Michael. “What’s he doing here?” she
asked.
“Minor setback,” Zaizen said. “He’ll
be easy to dispose of. Did you bring what I asked?” Touko nodded and removed
her gun from her jacket. Double great. Now Michael was
going to get shot. He watched Touko very closely. She looked at the gun, then went to hand it to Zaizen. Before he could take it, she
pulled it back.
“You know…?” Touko said. “There’s
something wrong with this picture.”
“What are you doing?” Zaizen asked.
He was becoming annoyed again.
“The gun is now in my hands, not
yours. I think I quite like it this way.” She held the gun correctly and aimed
it at Zaizen. “Yes,” she said. “I like it much more this way.” Michael’s eyes
widened and he watched with interest.
“What are you doing?” Zaizen asked
again.
“Perhaps…I’m doing exactly what it
looks like. There’s someone here to see you, pops.”
“Touko…” Zaizen trailed off as Amon
came into the room. Michael stood up quickly.
“Amon!” he said.
“Get out of here, Michael. Sakaki’s
sitting in the waiting room.” Michael hesitated. Amon looked at him. “Go on,”
he said. Michael slowly left the room. Amon closed the door behind him and
flipped on the light. He returned his eyes to Zaizen’s. He was going to enjoy
this immensely.
