[Episode 81828] [Episode 81828]Ryoga couldn’t finish the phrase. His expression didn’t leave place to doubts of what happened. But he hadn’t the courage to express it with words, because it could be the destiny of Akane.
“So, are you telling me that Akane can die at any time?” Ranma asked. His voice betrayed his worry.
Ryoga lowered the head, agreed quietly.
“Tomorrow I will take her to go to Dr. Tofu.”
Ranma’s words alarmed to Ryoga.
“You won’t tell this to Akane, will you?” “No.” Ranma answered simply. “Then?”
Ranma remained thinking a little while before answering.
“I don’t know how, but I will take her there.”
'Damn headache' Akane complained quietly while she continued copying the explanation of the teacher.
Until that moment the day had passed calmly, except for the little incident with Kuno at first hour. Nevertheless in the last minutes, which had begun as a slight annoyance, had become a strong headache. Unfortunately this had become something normal since her return of China.
‘ Shit! I can’t continue with this. I need to go to see Dr. Tofu after the classes. ’
The minutes passed but the pain didn’t disappear. Akane rested the head on her left hand, while she continued writing with the right one.
‘Is that it isn’t going to disappear? It is stronger each time.’
Akane began to hear a noise, as a buzz, that growth until cover the voice of the teacher.
‘What now? My ears ring? '
Suddenly a little red spot appeared in the notebook where Akane was writing.
‘What is this? ’
Other spot appeared near the first one. She got a few with her fingers and she looked at it.
‘It seems… ’ Before that she could finished the phrase a third one appeared. There isn’t any doubt. ‘… Blood. Where? ’
Akane instinctively touched her nose; when she looked her hand again, her fingers were stained with blood. She drew out her handkerchief and plugged her nose with it. She tried to forget it and concentrate again in the explanation. During a few minutes she was able to do it; until suddenly everything acquired a reddish tone, as if she watched it after a coloured lens. Akane rubbed her eyes, trying to clarify her vision. But she was only able to stain her hands with blood. Akane began to be scared.
‘I can’t wait. I had to go to the infirmary.’
This simple thought supposed a great effort to Akane, who felt dizzy. In spite of all she was able to stand up slowly, leaning her hands in the table.
Ranma watched distracted by the window, without paying attention to the explanation. Since the previous night he hadn't been able to stop thinking about his conversation with Ryoga.
‘How could she become so ill so suddenly? I can’t understand it. Luckily everything will be solved as soon as Dr. Tofu sees her. Now, I only have to wait until the end of the classes, and everything will be solved.’
So optimistic thoughts were interrupted by the noise of a strong hit and a shout:
“Akane!”
Immediately Ranma rose of a jump and he darted on the writing desk of Akane. Supported on the empty table he could see the motionless body of Akane fallen between the rows of tables. Her head was tipped, whereas of her eyes and ears flowed small trickles of blood that slid by her face.
