The four sighed as they picked up the cleaning equipment and headed up to the dojo. Higashiyama had not been pleased when they showed up in the morning with their cleaning duty assigned for the weekend unfinished. But he had been gracious enough to let them continue the punishment in the evenings instead after hearing what happened to Ohno. They had barely finished cleaning half the dojo floor when Kanjani8 showed up, reeking of alcohol. Apparently they had smuggled sake onto campus after their weekend trip, and had gotten completely smashed after dinner.
“Why if it isn’t those losers!” Yokoyama smirked.
“What a bunch of useless weaklings! Scums! That’s what you lot are!” Uchi leered as he sent a bucket flying, water spraying out in all directions.
“Just what the fuck was that for!” Matsumoto yelled, angry at the mess that was being made in the dojo.
“You wanna try me?” Yui challenged, stepping forward to threaten Jun.
Jun bit his tongue as he took a deep breath to try and keep his cool. He could tell that Kanjani was drunk, and they were badly outnumbered. If their practice fights in training were anything to go by, picking a fight with Kanjani would be a very bad idea.
“You guys are drunk!” Nino spat.
“Say that again!” Uchi sneered as he picked Nino off the floor by the collar. Nino had been kneeling on the floor and scabbing the dojo floor when they came in.
“Drinking on campus is against the rules! I’ll see how Higashiyama likes it when he finds out what the hell you guys have been doing!” Sho yelled angrily as he ran out of the dojo through the door opposite to where Ohno was standing.
Not liking the look of things, Ohno started moving forward towards the group. The fight began abruptly when Uchi gave the defenceless Nino a hard slap in the face followed by a heavy punch in the gut, causing Nino to crumble onto the floor in pain. Ohno sprinted across the dojo floor as fast as he could, gripping the shinai he picked up from the weapons rack tightly in his hand. The illness had taken the wind out of his lungs though and Ohno could barely manage more than a jog. The sudden outburst of violence had shocked the rest of Kanjani at first, but high on alcohol induced bravery, the rest soon joined in the rumble apart from the more peace loving Nikishido and Maruyama. Jun and Aiba had rushed to try and protect Nino from the mob but they were soon getting beaten up themselves by the rest of the gang.
Ohno reached Nino’s side first, as he was the nearest of the lot. With a smack on the back Murakami came tumbling down. Yokoyama received a smack in the stomach with the shinai followed by a knee in the balls as he turned around to find out who was the new intruder. While Murakami and Yokoyama were caught by surprise, Uchi had time to prepare himself as Ohno smacked his teammates. Turning his focus away from kicking a fallen Nino, Uchi took up a fighting stance. The sound of Ohno’s intrusion had surprised the rest of the Kanjani members, and they stopped their fight with Jun and Aiba and everyone turned their attention to the showdown between Ohno and Uchi. Uchi aimed a kick at Ohno’s right hand, intending to disable his opponent. Under normal circumstances Ohno would have no problems dodging the attack. But he had barely recovered form his illness and his stamina had been completely sapped from taking down two opponents earlier, unable to move fast enough, Ohno took the full force of the kick on his wrist. Ohno gritted his teeth in pain. He’d completely forgotten about the IV plug that was still lodged in his skin, and the plastic plug had dug deep into his skin. Nonetheless he had been well trained, even that smack was not enough to make him release his tight grip on the weapon. His fingers could barely move after the large impact however. Ohno used his left hand to prise open his fingers and took the weapon on his left hand as he moved his feet and dodged out of the way of another attack from Uchi. Steadying his grip on the weapon, Ohno lifted the shinai with his left hand and narrowed his eyes. His strength was draining rapidly, he had to end the fight fast or else he’d be in deep trouble. His chance came immediately as Uchi made a clumsy lunge at Ohno. Ohno stepped backwards to avoid the attack, but at the same time started swinging his shinai down, aiming for Uchi’s head. He swung down with all his remaining strength and the weapon made a satisfying crack as it hit its target, and Uchi dropped like a piece of lead onto the dojo floor, knocked out cold by the blow to his head. Ohno panted hard, exhausted by the exertions. A wooden clang sounded as the shinai slipped off his limp hand and onto the floor. Ohno looked down and was surprised to see that the tip of the wooden shinai had broken off from the impact of the hit. An ugly lump was starting to form on Uchi’s forehead. Bracing himself, Ohno walked towards the dojo door, determined not to show any signs of weakness in front of the Kanjani brats. Everyone merely stared at Ohno in shock, unsure of what to do. Ohno had just stepped out of the dojo entrance when a furious Matchy came charging in with Higashiyama and Sho following closely behind.
“Ohno-san!” Sho exclaimed.
“What happened to you! Why are you bleeding!” Sho cried in alarm.
It was only then that Ohno noticed the blood that was dripping from his right hand. He turned around and looked into the dojo to see a trail of blood on the dojo floor, and his anxious teammates rushing out after him, having recovered from their initial shock. Ohno tried to lift his right hand up to inspect the wound, but his hands were trembling so badly he could barely lift it. Then, Ohno felt the strength leaving his body as he slumped down against the wall. He was vaguely aware of people yelling his name before...
Ohno realised he must have blacked out when he realise he was lying in bed when he woke up. Panic started raising in his chest as he realised he was not in the sickbay on campus, but in a hospital. Sho seems to have read his mind has he held Ohno’s hands and started speaking in a calming voice.
“Its alright Ohno, we’re all here, everything will be fine. Now take a deep breath...” Ohno calmed himself down when he realised that all the rest of the members were sitting in the sofa a little ways from the bed.
Nino had fallen asleep on the sofa and Aiba was poking him in the stomach and trying to wake him up. Ohno allowed Sho to adjust his pillow so that he could lean back comfortably. He tried to sit up but the sharp pain in his bones made Ohno groan. Ohno noticed that his right wrist had been bandaged and a new IV had been set up on his left hand.
“What happened?” Ohno croaked, he voice felt raw and his mouth was parched.
Sho helpfully poured some water for Ohno as the rest of the members gathered around the bed. Sho made sure his teammate was comfortably settled down before he started explaining.
“You collapsed by the side of the dojo last night. You were running a high fever so Higashiyama-san called the ambulance…” Sho explained.
“What about you guys. Nino are you alright?” Ohno asked.
Nino widened his eyes, “Yeah? Why wouldn’t I be?”
Ohno coughed as he continued “You were getting kicked like a soccer ball last night…”
“Ah that…” Nino replied as his face turned red in embarrassment.
“I’m fine, just a few bruises… they didn’t actually kick that hard…” Nino replied.
Sho nodded in agreement. "Yeah, no broken bones and no internal bleeding, he'll be fine."
"That'll teach him not to slack off during physical training though..." Jun chided, making Nino wince.
They stopped arguing immediately though, when Ohno took a sharp breath and had an obviously pained look on his face.
"Ohno-san are you alright?" Sho asked as he got up to check on Ohno.
"Arghs bone hurts..." Ohno muttered.
"Ne Ohno-san... hate to tell you this but... you're down with dengue fever, so the pain could last for a while... I'll go get the doctor" Sho said apologetically before leaving the room.
It was a good 20 minutes before the doctor finally appeared. He gave Ohno a thorough examination before giving him strict orders to rest, and drink as much fluids as possible. Ohno nodded obediently as he sank back to the bed, exhausted. The pain came in waves, and seemed to attack different parts of his skeletal system each time.
"How long will I have to be hospitalized?" Ohno finally plucked up the courage to ask his most dreaded question.
"That'll depend on how fast you get over the dengue. It differs in every patient, but considering how you were already badly dehydrated... hopefully everything will go fine and you can go home in say... a week?" The doctor smile warmly in encouragement but the words still sounded cold and piercing to Ohno. Something about the way the doctor said it made Ohno feel that he'd be extremely lucky if he could make it home in a week.
"Can't I go home any earlier?" Ohno whined after the doctor left. Sho shook his head before replying Ohno firmly
"No. Do you even know you dangerous your situation now is?" Ohno looked at Sho blankly, waiting for an explanation.
Sighing, Sho explained "Fluid balance is the key to treating dengue fever. In your case however, you were already suffering from heat exhaustion and dehydration, making the likelihood of your illness worsening to dengue hemorrhagic fever and subsequently dengue shock syndrome higher."
Four blank faces were staring at Sho.
"What that means is, we need to closely monitor your condition and you need to cooperate with the treatment, otherwise it'll get much worst. Dengue shock syndrome can even be fatal..." Sho continued.
While the four didn't know what hemorrhagic fever or shock syndrome meant, they certainly understood the word fatal. Sho shook his head in disgust.
"How can you guys know know about this? Especially Ohno... you've been with the Agency for so long... don't they teach you guys this stuff?" Sho asked.
"Not really..." Ohno shook his head in embarrassment.
"Hmm..." Sho mused... that was something he'd like to do about. Once they aren't so busy with their physical training that is. Ohno soon drifted off to sleep, but only after he'd made the members promise that they'll still be around when he wakes up.
"Sure, as long as its not midnight by the time you wake up or something. We need to sleep too you know..." came Nino's bratty reply, earning him a nudge in the ribs from Jun. Before Nino could complain about the pain cos Jun had nudged him right in his bruise, Jun had dragged him out of the room to give Ohno some peace and quiet.
A/N: Yay! Some action at last! I hope you liked it! This is a late post I know! But in my defense I was busy with the subs! Triple release weekend for DNA subs hohoho!
PS: Sorry if there are any K8 fans! But its totally K8 VS Arashi here and it'll stay that way for... quite a while I guess! XD This is just a fic so don't take it too seriously ok! XD
