Inner Trinity (12/?)
By Max Ikari
"What do you mean he is gone?" asked Yohji getting angry.
" We were having a session with him since he woke up but it went
wrong," said doctor Tagashi.
"What happened?" asked Omi quietly.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Doctor, the patient Fujimiya has woken up," said the nurse in charge.
"Great, I've been meaning to have a chat with him," smiled the doctor.
Entering the room where Fujimiya is the doctor notices that the
patient is not thrashing or fighting anymore.
" I am Doctor Tagashi, who would you be?" asked the doctor.
"I am Aya. Could you tell me what the hell I am doing here?" asked
Aya irritated.
"Your friends were worried about you, you disappeared for about a
month," said the doctor taking some notes.
"What month is it?" asked Aya eyes wide with fear.
" November 12th," said the doctor.
"November? What the fuck is going on?" asked Aya glaring at the
doctor
as if it was his fault.
"Will you let me hypnotize you to find out? asked the doctor.
Aya regarded him for about a minute and then nodded.
"Okay Aya, just relax, breathe through your nose and exhale through
your mouth," said the doctor.
Aya stared at him as if asking if he was kidding, but did it anyways.
He started to relax.
"Feel all your muscles relax, each of your muscles loosening.
Relax."
said the doctor.
Aya visibly relaxed. His shoulders loosened and the tenseness on his
body left.
"Now Aya, tell me why do you need help?" asked the doctor.
"Help?" asked Aya quietly
" Yes, help. Why do you need help with having other personalities?"
asked the doctor.
" Other personalities?" asked Aya quietly.
" Yes, a personality named Ryo, Gendo, and Ran according to your
friend Yohji." Said the doctor.
"They help me, help me," said Aya quietly
"Help you what?" asked the doctor.
"Escape, escape from her," said Aya
"Who is she? Why do you need to escape?" asked the doctor
"Help me escape my mother," said Aya
"Your mother? Did she hurt you when you were little?" asked the
doctor.
"No," said Aya
"Then why do you need people to help you escape her?" asked the doctor
"Because she wants to take me to hell," said Aya. Immediately after
saying this Aya tensed and snapped his eyes open.
"She is here," said Aya quietly
" Aya calm down, nobody is here," said the doctor, " Its all in your
mind."
"I am not Aya," said Ryo quietly, " If you are quiet she won't hear
us."
"Are you afraid of going to hell?" asked the doctor
" I am afraid of spending hell with her," said Ryo. Then his eyes
widened and a scream tore at his lungs and then all that remained was
silence.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"What the hell did he see?" asked Yohji angry.
"Calm down, you have to understand that whatever was happening in
your
friend's mind is real to him. Probably his mother took him to hell
like he believed she would," said Doctor Tagashi.
"Then how do we get him back?" asked Yohji
" Well there is where you guys come in. He trusts you more than he
trusts me, maybe if you talk to him he may respond. However, it is
not for sure, he may remain for years closed off," said the doctor.
"Years?" asked Omi surprised.
"Yes, it all depends how deep the trauma is," said the doctor.
" I have one question, why would he think his mother wants to hurt
him? He loved his mother and she loved him from what I hear," said Ken
"Its the fear of abandonment, he takes what he trusts will never
leave
him and twists it around," said the doctor, "It is a natural defense,
that is why the personalities returned. Something triggered
emergence
of the personalities."
"Maybe it was his sister leaving to Spain, they were very close,"
said
Yohji.
"That could be, but he needs help right now," said the doctor.
"Should we all go in?" asked Ken
"No preferably his best friend should go in, or the person closest to
him," said the doctor.
"That would be Yohji," said Ken.
"Well the young man, you can go in," said the doctor.
Yohji entered the room and saw Aya sitting in a chair his eyes glazed
open staring into nothing.
"Aya, can you hear me?" asked Yohji walking closer to him. He could
see that Aya was not responding. I certain fear seemed to suddenly
grip him and not let him go. He feared he would lose Aya forever,
never be with him again.
"Aya please don't leave me. You've got to fight, for your sister,
for
you, for us," said Yohji brushing the hair from Aya's slack face.
"Aya please, the doctor thinks you may be trapped forever in your
mind. You have to fight it." Said Yohji and he hugged Aya tightly.
Fearing that if he let go he would be gone.
/He is crying for Aya/
/Aya is gone, his mother took him away/
/We are never getting out of this hell hole/
/I know how we can/
/Well fucking do it! /
"Yohji? What are you doing?" asked a very annoyed Aya
"Aya?" asked Yohji unbelieving
"Whom the hell did you expect?" asked Aya trying to untangle himself
from Yohji, but Yohji wouldn't have any of it. He pressed his lips
to
Aya's kissing him deeply. Aya first tensed up but then visibly
relaxed starting to respond to the kiss.
Yohji released Aya's mouth needing some air.
"You really scared me, " said Yohji nibbling at Aya's bottom lip.
"Why? Because you weren't going to get any?" asked Aya irritated.
"Yohji smiled and hugged Aya again. " Ai shiteiru Aya."
Aya relaxed into the hug and smiled.
