Sam's POV:

"Taurtis I Am Leaving!" I Shouted from The Living room, As I Approahed the Front door, "Sam wait up!" I Heard him Yell from atop the Stairs, I Heard his Feet hitting the wooden stairs, as he Quickly ran down, Honestly It sounded more like He was Tumbling Down.

"I'm Coming aswell." He Told me, I Sighed Smiling, "You Can't, You have to Work at the Restaurant" I told him, He Groaned, "Whyyyyy" he Asked me whining, "I Wanna Work with you!" I Said, I Giggled and patted his Shoulder, "Why don't we just stay Home?" He asked me, He Tried to grab my Wrist And pull me towards the Sofa, I Kept my Stance, as he wasn't Trying very Hard, "Come on, if were late we won't be able to pay for the Lawsuit." I Told him, He stopped pulling on my Arm confused for a Moment, "What Lawsuit...?" "The one with Mr.Dorito" I responded to His Question.

He Sighed, And Nodded, "Let's hurry up and get to work then!" He insisted, and Pulled me out the Door.

For about a Week the same process repeated, After school Sam Would Go to leave, Taurtis would Complain, Taurtis Would walk Sam to Work, and then Hop on the Train to Get to His Own.

Sam Worked in a Medium Sized Grocher near the Back of Town, He Stacked the Shelfs, and Retrived stuff from the Freezer, while as Taurtis Worked in the Town over, at a Restaurant called, "Okashi Watashi" it was a moderate sized restaurant, but it Paid Twice as Much As the Grocher Sam worked At.

He didn't enjoy being or working so far away from His Home, Or Sam.

Everyday after work insisted of Coming Home, Eating playing some Game Crab, Chatting a little About Work, and then Crashing Together on the Couch.

Today There Chat about Work wasn't the Usual Banter, Today it Seemed that the Grocher Sam Had Been Working at Was Invaded By (Invader) Burglars, "And Right After that The Police Arrived, And Fought them," Sam Told his Story, Taurtis Sat there Not Enjoying this story Very Much.

Sam Yawned, It had seemed the Story had went on Past there Usual Gaming Time, "I Think I am Going to Go To Bed Early.." Sam Said Stretching, Taurtis Nodded, and they Headed off to Bed.

Later in the Night, Taurtis Laid there Awake, Thinking, about Sams Story, He Tried Closing his Eyes, but it Didn't seem to affect him, Finally he spoke up, he wanted to Get something off his Chest.

"Sam....Are You Awake Still..?" He Whispered, he got a Fainted "Yea" "You Do Know I won't Let Anything Happen to You.......Right?" I Asked him, It Was Silent For a Moment, "Y-Yes.." he Heard A Small Answer, He Felt himself Smile softly, and was Finally able to Close his eyes, while on the Other Hand, Sam Couldn't help but Feel a Slight Warmth on his cheeks.

The Next Morning, After School, Sam Went To head off to work again,  as usual Taurtis Ran up, But This time Didn't Complain, He Walked with Sam to the Grocher, And then Headed off to the Train station.

Sam Was Immediately met up With The Supervisor, Like Dude we need some More chicken from The Freezer" he Told Sam, Who Nodded, And Headed off Towards The Freezer.

He opened the Door, and Walked inside, It Closed behind him. But he didn't think anything of it, He Walked Towards the Back of The Freezer, and Opened the Box's, He found he Chicken, and Went Towards the front of The Freezer, he Tried to hurry, as he was sure he would FREEZE if he Spent anymore time there.

Sam set down the Chicken, And grabbed the Door handle, He Tried to open it, but it seemed locked, Slightly Confused, And Starting to Panic, He Tried it Again, and Again.

"Oh Gord.." He Mummbled to himself, when he Remembered The Strict Teaching the Managers tried To implant into his mind. "The Door Only opens from the outside."

"Edward you Numbskull!! How many times have I told you! Bring the Food To The Baking Area!" A Tall Man Nagged a Smaller Man, who nodded slowly, and Grabbed Another Box, They were Performing their Clean out, As the Store Was Closing Down.

Once the Smaller man, Edward, Left the room, the Taller one Jacob, Saw something Near the Corner of The Room, the Box Edward had just moved seemed to be Blocking it.

"Edward Hurry Up! I think I found Something." Jacob Called, as Edward Ran Back into the Room, "What is it Boss?" He asked Walking up beside Edward, "I Don't Know Move the Box NumbSkull!" Jacob Scowled, as Edward Pulled the Box out of the way.

"Hello This Is The Japan Regional Hospital" came a Voice from the Red J-Phone, "Yes, How can I Help You?" Asked Grian, who had a Expression of Slight Confusion imprinted on his Face, "We Found you in the Emergency Contacts List Please come Asap" they Instructed him, "Excuse me but Who's Emergency Contacts?" He Asked The Woman on the Phone, "Sam Gladiators." With that the Woman Hung up, And Grian Was left there in slight Shock.
#################################
J, And Grian Both Arrived at the Hospital. pushing there way threw the Crowd of People, They Approached the Receptionist, "Hello Welcome to Japan Regional Hospital how can I Help You." The Woman asked, Adjusting her Glasses as she looked up at the Two.

"We Were Called in...For Sam Gladiator..?" Grian Said Skeptically, the Woman Nodded, and Typed something on her Computer, "Yes, Yes, Room 45 Floor Three," The Woman Told them. They Thanked her, and Headed off Towards the Stairwell.

They Finally Made it to the Room, They Opened the Door Slowly, And Peered in, There Sat Sam, Sitting up on the Bed, a Confused look was Plastered Across his Face, Grian, and J, both walked in, and Over Towards Sam, "Guys Your Here?!" Sam Asked them, and they Nodded "What Happened..?" He Asked the Boys, Right as a Doctor Entered the Room, "Let me Explain Sam."

It Had Turned out That When Sam Had been Locked in the Freezer, That He Had Froze, It Was Very Phenomenal, And Had only Happened in a few Rare Cases.

"How long was I Frozen For..?" Sam Asked Them, And Grian Spoke up. "Two Years.." Sam Was Suprised, "T-Two Years..?" He Asked, and they nodded, Wow... two Years.....

After he Doctor left. Sam Looked around the Room, and then Asked the Question they Had been Dreading, "Where's Taurtis..?" "Well... You see.." Grian Began, Trying to Avoid answering the Question.

"Perhaps That's A question Better Answered Later on.." J Told Him, Sam Looked at Them Confused, "What Do You Mean..?" Sam Asked Them In Return.
#################################
I Had been a Week, They Had been going to School, Sam Was Still Very confused on why Taurtis Was No Where to be found, And On Why J, And Grian started Avoiding Him.

Everybody in School Refused to Talk about Taurtis, Even Okami, And Rowan, While as some Students Refused to Talk to Sam All together.

Sam Decided he Needed to Get some Answers, So After School, He Showed up at J's House.

J Answered the Door, it was Obvious from his Expression That He Was Nervous, "Hey Sam What are You Doing Here...?" He Asked, "J I Need Answers." Sam Demanded, And Pushed into the Home.
#################################
J, and Grian had Agreed to Take Sam to see Taurtis, Sam Still didn't Know Where he was, But he Was Excited to Finally see His Best Friend Again.

But he Didn't Know what Everybody Refused to Talk About him, Did He Do Something? Something Wrong..?
#################################
School Had Ended, Grian, and J, Met up with Sam, They Lead Sam Down the Sidewalk, Until they Arrived At The Hospital.

"Why are we Here..?" Sam Asked, Grian, and J both turned to look at him, "Were bringing you To see Taurtis," J Told Sam, Who was still Confused, "What..? Did something Happen?!" Sam Asked Quickly, And Grian Nodded, They turned back Around, and Walked into the Hospital Entrance.

"Guys What Happened??" Sam Asked Them, but they Didn't Answer, Just Continue Walking.

In a Matter of minutes They Approached Room 934B, "Guys..?" Sam Attempted one More time, But Didn't Receive a Answer, instead They Just Opened the Door, And Walked inside.

The Sunlight Shone Brightly Threw the Window, Brightening the White Room, A hospital Bed Laid Flat n Center Of the Room, Some Machinery Sat beside the bed on the Left, And A Bed Side table on the Right.

On the Bed side table Was a Vase with multiple colored Flowers, Most of them Blue, The Flowers Did there Work trying to Brighten The Mood of who ever Entered, but they didn't last for long.

Sam Stayed in the Door Way, His Gaze Swept over the Figure Lying in the Bed, He Felt his eyed Start to water, as he tried Blinking away The Tears.

"W-What Happened To Him...." He Asked, Lookin Over At Grian, and J, Hoping to Receive a Answer, but not Expecting One.

"Well...You See..." J Began, But Grian Finished off where he could not, "a Year After You Went missing.....He Hung Himself."

"W-What" Sam Mummbled under his Breath, and Looked back over at Taurtis, who lied in the bed, "He's in a Coma." Grian Finished Off.

"W-Why would he Do That...?" Sam Asked them, He Could Feel Himself Tearing up Once Again.
#################################
Sam Sat at home, Alone, He Watched as the Characters Moved across the Television screen, He Couldn't Stop Thinking About Taurtis, So he Tried Watching TV To Distract Himself.

He Grabbed his Phone off the Table as it Vibrated, unlocking it, to See a Message From Grian.

Grian: Come to The Hospital.

Sam: What? why?

Grian: It doesn't Matter just hurry up!

Sam: Grian.

Grian: Fine, The Doctor Said That Taurtis is Waking Up.

Sam: coming.

At that Sam Had Dropped his Phone on the Couch, And Ran To the Door.

#################################

Sam Arrived at the Hospital, to find J, And Grian Waiting outside Of Taurtis's room Door, They Exchanged Knowing looks, and Sam Entered the Room.

The Door Latched Behind him, he Smiled Slightly once he Saw Taurtis Siting on The Edge of the Bed, and Looking out the Window.

He Walked over, and sat beside him, Taurtis looked over at him, Sam Ignored the Look of Confusion, and Wrapped his arm around Him in a Tight Embrace.

Afterwards Taurtis Still looked at him Confused, but even more so then Before, "Excuse me, But Who Are You?"
