I couldn't think of anything. No, maybe I just couldn't... My blood vessels were tightening, my circulation was failing, and my yellow haori was slowly turning red. My head began to throb. Ah, is this how I die? As I dragged my immobile legs along, I saw you—my reason for living, my hope. I tried to reach out, but my body wouldn't follow. I just collapsed right into your arms.
