Chapter 8: Transplant

Tohru put her hand on Kyo’s shaking shoulder.

“Kyo-kun, what is it?” asked Tohru becoming even more worried.

“He’s dying...,” cried Kyo, “And it’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have made him come back with us.”

“You didn’t make him come,” said Tohru, “He wanted to. Do you remember how happy he was when he found out that he could come home with us?”

“Yeah,” Kyo gave a small tearful smile, “I haven’t seen him that happy in a long time.”

Just then a nurse ran into the room, “Kyo Sohma-san we need your help,” she called.

Kyo jumped up from his chair, his eyes were wide, “What is it?”

“I apologize for putting this so impolitely but, we need one of your lungs,” she said, “Koi-san’s body has rejected the lung that was given to him. We didn’t understand at first but then we realized that the person didn’t belong to the zodiac, and that may be the reason why. So we checked all the possible members to see if they had matches and only your name came up as a match.”

Kyo just stared at the nurse, processing everything that she had just said to him.

“Please Sohma-san, we don’t have much time. As we speak Koi-san is dying.”

Kyo looked over at Tohru. Tears were already streaming down her face as she nodded, “Go,” she said quietly.

Kyo looked back at the nurse, “What do you need me to do?”

The nurse immediately started to pull him down the hall and into a room. She spoke to him a mile a minute, telling him everything that he would need to know before the surgery happened. Usually he would have to fill out some forms first but there wasn’t any time, plus he and Koi were related.

o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o

Within fifteen minutes Kyo was being rushed out of the hospital room on a stretcher and being put under anesthesia as he disappeared behind the doors of the operating room.

Tohru was left alone in the waiting room. Her heart hammered in her chest in fear for both Kyo and Koi. She had over heard the nurse when she was speaking to Kyo. She had said that there was a possibility of death for both him and his twin brother. It scared her, the thought of loosing them. Even though she had only known Koi for a small amount of time, he had made a special place in her heart along with all the other members of the zodiac.

O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O-O

Tohru sat for hours upon hours in the waiting room. She jumped at every noise that sounded like a door opening or closing.

Then finally, after over several hours the operation doors opened and a doctor with a serious expression emerged.

Tohru quickly got up from her chair and went over to the doctor. “Excuse me doctor-san how are they doing?” she asked, her eyes searched the doctor’s face for any signs.

The doctor took a deep breath before speaking. “We almost lost them, but we were able to both of them. It was strange; they started to have similar problems then their hearts stopped at the same exact time. But thankfully my staff and I were able to get their hearts started again,” the doctor said. The corners of his mouth twitched up for a quick small smile. “They both will be sore for a while and will have to remain here for at least several weeks to recover.”

“Oh, thank goodness....” breathed Tohru. “Thank you very much for saving them.” she said as she bowed to the doctor.

“You welcome,” said the doctor with a more relaxed smile, “Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to bring my patients into their rooms.”

“Oh, yes! I’m sorry!” exclaimed Tohru, blushing and bowing apologetically.

Just then she felt a hand on her shoulder. She quickly looked up and stood up straight when she saw Hatori standing behind her.

“It’s getting late. You should go home and get some rest. They won’t be awake for a while now,” he said in a calm tone.

o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o

“Thank you for driving me home,” said Tohru as she climbed out of Hatori’s car.

“You’re welcome, I promise that I will call you to let you know if anything happened with them,” he said before Tohru shut the door.

“Thank you...,” said Tohru as she watched Hatori drive away.

A/N: Do not worry this isn’t the end! I have at least one more chapter planned.
