Girls Und Panzer - The Missing Heir

Kuromorimine Arc: Chapter 89 - Decision

"Eiji-kun? You finally remembered?" Erika asked

"Yes..right Eiji-kun?"

(Gero didn't answer and was just standing there in front of them)

"Gero?"

"Eiji-kun?"

(All of a sudden Gero started to tilt backwards, falling. Both Erika and Kaede quickly rushed to his aid catching him right before he hit the ground)

"Gero! Gero?!" Erika shouted

"Eiji-kun! What's wrong?!" Kaede shouted as well

(Gero was unconscious but was breathing heavily. Erika placed her hand on his forehead and felt that he was burning hot. The reason for this was because of Gero using Sacred Possession even for just one second after using resonance was too much of a toll to his body)

"He's heating up!"

"Fever? What's going on?!" Kaede reacted

"It's the backlash from using Sacred Possession..come on help me! We need to get him to the hospital immediately!"

"Of course!"

(Kaede and Erika carried him to the car and they drove off quickly towards the nearest hospital. At the same time Gero's crew also collapsed from fatigue and were brought to the hospital as well)

[Hospital Recovery Room - 2 Hours Later]

(After arriving at the hospital and receiving treatment for his wounds, Gero was now sleeping at one of the beds and his crew were also with him in the same room. Their friends were there with them waiting for them to wake up. All of them worried for Gero and his crew and all they could do was wait)

"Darling.." Kay softly called out to Gero

"Any word from the doctors?" Darjeeling asked

"Nothing yet.." Erika answered

"Don't worry..they're just dead tired after the match..Gero-kun and Ono-kun just got back with us from a twelve hour flight.." Ray said

"While Ken-senpai and Ono-senpai just got out of the hospital yesterday..I'm sure they were still not a hundred percent when they fought.." Sheska said

"Wait..did you just say twelve hour flight and were just from the hospital?!" Shiori reacted

"Yeah..why?"

(Shiori was just too shocked that Gero and his crew was able to move and perform as they did during the tournament after travelling for 12 hours and where not at their best. It made her feel worse about losing to a crew that wasn't even at their best condition)

"N-Nothing.."

"I'm sure all they need is rest..then soon we'll see him in his usual happy go lucky mood!" Katyusha said

"You're right about that.." Nonna agreed

"Why do you guys have to be so noisy.."

(Everyone was surprised when they heard Gero's voice from across the room. They looked and he just woke up and his crew as well was just waking up)

"Yo everyone.."

"Ono-senpai! Thank goodness you're awake.." Sheska said

"Hey Sheska.." Ono smiled

"How are you feeling?" Leila asked
