Leo Hayakawa: (HT) Chapter 4

== Chapter 4 ==
- Leo and Koyuki arrive at the front gate of Bogano's Surface Base, the two clones troopers helping Rengoku arrive shortly after. They panic watching his case worsen as Leo shouts on comms for medics to take Kyojuro to the emergency operation room and collapses after shouting. Quickly after, medics arrive with a stretcher, carrying Rengoku and Leo to the room. The clones, Koyuki go to a hospital room to get checked on. -
- Koyuki now with a plaster on her face, and some others on her body, sits watching the clones be attended to, Kobeni rushes in and checks on her -
KOBENI: (panicked) Koyuki! are you okay? we heard about the mission and-
- Koyuki looks up at her and her eyes water. -
KOYUKI: Iki and Nayuta didn't make it..
- Kobeni freezes in shock, she then sits next to Koyuki and begins to cry, Koyuki cries too. They both comfort each other -
- CROSS CUT -
- Inside Emergency Operation Room 1 Rengoku is being treated. Akaza's arm has been removed and is on a tray to the side of them. -
SURGEON 1: (eyes widen) the wound sir.. can we even heal that?
SURGEON 2: Make sure his vitals are manageable. We need to try stop the bleeding-
- Rengoku's eyes open and he places his hand on a surgeon's shoulder -
RENGOKU: (strained) did- the others- live?
SURGEON 4: they're being treated.. you shouldn't speak you're-
RENGOKU: tell- Haya..kawa,,, - to set- his heart-... ablaze.
SURGEON 3: sir! sir! his vitals are dropping!
- CROSS CUT -
- Inside Emergency Operation Room 2 Hayakawa is being treated. His wounds are covered in bandages and his vitals fine, however he lays unconscious -
SURGEON A: His vitals are okay.. but he's been out for a while.
SURGEON B: His body is okay on this end.. let's hope his mind catches up.
- *beep* -
- *beep* -
SURGEON A: oh he's awake.
SURGEON B: Welcome back Hayakawa.
LEO: where's the others?
SURGEON B: Rengoku is in surgery.
LEO: Let me go see him.
SURGEON A: Hayakawa.. we suggest bedrest for now, you've only jus-
LEO: I don't care. Let me go see him.
- The surgeons eyes widen and they look at one another, then they look back at Hayakawa and nod. He gets up from his bed and walks out of the surgery room, down the hall and towards the other. -
- As he arrives at the doors for the surgery room, his eyes widen in shock and he's at a loss of words. He stares in disbelief at the "in surgery green light" now shone red and a group of surgeons walk out in defeat. One walks over to Hayakawa and relays the news -
SURGEON 4: ..Kyojuro Rengoku didn't survive his surgery.. his last words were aimed at you Hayakawa..
- Hayakawa stands listening staring in disbelief -
SURGEON 4: .."to set your heart ablaze" those were his words to you. I'm very sorry.
- The surgeons leave, Hayakawa stays staring at the ground after hearing the news. A minute later he walks into the room in front of him. Upon entry he sees Rengoku's body, covered in blood. He walks slowly over to it and shivers while staring at the huge hole in Rengoku's chest and the blood still wet that leaked from it. He grits his teeth and then looks over at Rengoku's face, watching the colour slowly leave his face. He then turns and leaves the room. -
- As he closes the door upon his exit, he sees Shinobu, Kanao, Kobeni and Koyuki looking at him all with a sorrowful look. He nods with a rageful look in his eyes and walks past them. -
- CROSS CUT - TIME SKIP -> 2 Days Later.. -
- Hayakawa walks onto the broken and charred ground of his last fight. He looks to his side, observing the bodies of the dead. Watching them he grits his teeth and clenches his fists. After a few minutes of staring, he walks to the most destroyed part of the land and begins searching. Seeing a pool of dried blood, with an object next to it he walks over and crouches down. Picking up the object and staring at it solemnly. -
LEO: (under his breath) I'll make him pay.. they'll all pay.
- Wiping some dirt off of it he stands up and walks back to the base. Upon arrival he goes to his old hut and sits down at the table. -
