Soul Fusion Online…

"Any word from our two leaders?" WhiteLotus asked Rose and Violet.

"No. I haven't heard anything. I wonder if something happened in the real world..." Rose said with a frown. They had come upon a huge bounty, but they couldn't take it on their own with their current strength. They needed Ryu and Chi's help.

"Ummm..." Violet raised her hand. "I think I might know..."

A few days passed, and after crying her eyes out and talking with Tina, Trisha was back to normal. She was still staying at the hospital with Yuki, but she would also go home to clean the house so that it was not filling up with dust. She was also sleeping and eating properly now too. After hearing what the doctor had to say from Tina, some of Trisha's concerns were answered, and now she could hardly wait until the day Yuki opened her eyes. 

Because Yuki had to keep going to treatments and operations, Yuki's head had to keep being shaved down to the bare skin. To match her so Trisha would not feel sad about not having any hair, Trisha did the same.  She did not do this alone. Even Tina joined in on this. So now, both wore baseball caps when they went outside. 

Things began to settle down as Trisha got into her new daily routine. Every day she would go home when Yuki was taken in for treatment then return when Yuki was just coming back. She had timed it perfectly for when she was normally done. Some days treatment took a little longer than normal. 

Like this, 2 weeks passed, and Trisha was cleaning the room like normal. Yuki was laying in bed with equipment monitoring her condition. As she took her occasional glance at Yuki to make sure everything was okay, she saw movement in Yuki's eyelids, causing Trisha to drop the duster in her hands and rush to the bed. "Yuki!?" Tears welled up in Trisha's eyes, along with a surge of anticipation. Trisha held Yuki's hand and stood beside her waiting to see if it was not just a trick of her mind. As she stood there, Yuki's eyelids suddenly began to flutter. Slowly but surely, her eyes began to part. Trisha's lips quivered as she gripped Yuki's hand. "Yuki! Yuki!" Trisha was so happy to see Yuki slowly waking up. She didn't let her happiness cloud her judgment though, she reached over and pressed the nurse call button right away so that the doctors could be notified.

Yuki felt like she had been stuck in an everlasting darkness. After spending an unknown time in this darkness, a light suddenly appeared before her. Seeing such a beautiful bright light which she had yearned for what seemed like an eternity. Yuki reached out and tried to grab it. It was then when she heard a familiar voice. A voice filled with concern, happiness, and love. Yuki wanted to open her mouth to call out that person's name, but she felt like she had no energy at all. But she was already struggling in trying to open her eyes. It was as if her brain was not allowing her to do so. 

But Yuki was determined she wanted to see the face of the girl who called her name. She wanted to see the smile of that girl. The girl that she fell in love with. Yuki had remembered everything that happened up until she blacked out. She knew that Trisha must have freaked out. She knew the feeling of watching someone you care for coming to harm. But no matter what, she would still have done the same thing. She would have tried to protect Trisha even at the cost of her own life. 

After struggling for a few minutes, the light of the room slowly pierced through the darkness. Her eyes slowly opened to reveal the teary face of the girl she loved so much. Although the world around her was now grey, she didn't care as long as she was able to lay eyes on her loved one. Tears welled up in Yuki's eyes. She was happy to be alive. 

"Yuki!" Trisha couldn't hold back and hugged Yuki. Yuki wished she could speak, but it seemed her ability to talk was no longer working. She could only frown at this but knowing today's medical advancements, she hoped it wouldn't be long before she could do this. Luckily she was still able to swallow. This meant she could push air up her throat for acknowledgment. It was her tongue and lips that seemed to not want to move. 

"She's awake!?" Tina came running into the room with the nurses. She was still wearing her uniform and had just gotten off work and was coming for her daily visit. 

"Mmm… Tina, Yuki is back!" Trisha stood back up and nodded her head. She couldn't control the happy tears running down her face. 

"That's good! That's good! Trisha, come here and let the nurses do their thing." Tina wanted to hug Yuki too, but right now, it was best for the professionals to do what needed to be done. 

"Mmm..." Trisha was slightly reluctant but still did as Tina said.

The nurses quickly transferred Yuki to a gurney and took her in for a check up. At this time, Trisha and Tina could only sit and wait for results. Their wait was a long one. The doctor did not come back to the room until almost midnight, six hours later. "Miss, your daughter is a fighter. Her brain cells are doing excellent with this new treatment and are rebuilding at a very fast rate. For now, she will not be able to talk, eat or drink on her own. These motor skills should come back in time as her brain repairs itself with each treatment. It will be a long process, but if we are lucky, she will have complete movement in her upper body back in six months to eight months. This means being able to walk again, maybe within two years. For full recovery back to how she was before about three years. These are all estimates and may take more time." 

"When can she come home?" Trisha asked.

"One week. After we watch and monitor everything, it should be one week. When she gets home, she will need help with eating, bathing, and bathroom. So she will need someone with her 24 hours a day. But it seems we got that covered already." The doctor smiled warmly at Trisha. He knew this girl had been here every day taking care of Yuki. This kind of dedication was not something you could just find anywhere.

"That's excellent news!" Tina began tearing up. This was the news she wanted to hear the most. Just knowing things were going to be okay and Yuki could return to how she was before made Tina so happy as if she had just won the best prize in the entire world.
