The Charm of the Pirate

Wounded

Rayons Island, March 1500.

BRUGH...!!!

Hades managed to untie the horse rope from the carriage. Then the train crashed into a pile of rocks that are quite large with very hard. The train was blown away and almost destroyed. Hades managed to jump off the train.

Gusto crawled up from inside the Horse carriage, his head bleeding and severely injured due to being hit by the roof of the carriage very hard.

Hades tried to stand up, his shoulders dislocated, and his ribs seemed to be broken. He watches the Horse and Richi disappear at the corner.

"Sir..."

"Sir.."

Gusto trudged along, He pressed his head which still felt swirling.

"Sir.."

"Where is Mr Richi?"

Gusto looked left and right, he couldn't find Richi anywhere.

Hades walked by holding his chest which was very painful, his breathing was tight, He almost toppled over a few times.

Gusto helped Hades walk to a slightly shady spot and helped him sit on a rock.

Hades coughed several times and spat out blood.

He spits sideways and bites his lips. Hades was breathing slowly, his chest hurt even as he was just breathing.

"My shipwreck will catch up in a while, wait a minute.." Hades coughed again as he tried to speak.

"Bye.."

"What about Mr Richi??" Gusto's body trembled when he imagined that something bad was happening to Richi.

"Pray.."

"I don't know where He is now.." Hades covered his face with both of his injured hands.

"I hope you're okay ..."

"really.." Mumbled Hades.

They sit with an unsettled mind. Every sound of the Horse approaching, they looked up, but unfortunately it was not one of the crew of the Ship of Hades. Passers-by won't stop even just asking no questions, because they don't want to get involved with things that will hurt them.

It was only about an hour later that Ben's screams were heard from a distance. Ben looked at the nearly destroyed carriage and looked around closely.

"Captain!"

"Captain Hades!"

Ben got off the horse and ran towards Hades and Gusto who were almost unconscious because of blood loss or because he could no longer bear the pain.

"Captain!!"

"Respect.."

Ben moved Hades' hand quite tight, Hades opened his eyes and hit Ben's head tightly.

BUKS!!

"Sick Captain!" Ben stroked his head.

"Hurry up and find Richi!"

"He disappeared in the corner!" Hades pointed towards the corner and Ben followed his direction.

Ben stood up and ran towards the corner. He looked towards the trampled bushes and looked down at the cliff.

"God..."

"Sir...!!"

"Mr Richi!!

"Mr Richi!

It was seen that the horse that was driven by Richi died horribly with the abdomen that decomposed because it hit a sharp stone.

Richi was lying next to him with a bloody head and a leg that was seriously injured by a horse.

Ben came down carefully. The cliff was steep enough that it could make him slip.

"Gosh.."

"Lord.."

"What should I do?" Ben could not help his tears seeing Richi who did not move in the slightest.

Several crew members were seen on the cliff. They watch Ben crying beside Richi. Bamus went down quickly.

"What happened Ben?"

"Mr Richi.."

Bamus holds Richi's cold body, but the pulse on his wrist is still felt even though it is small. Blood kept flowing from his thighs and head.

"I'll carry him, you go up first.."

"And stop crying, I can't stand to see it.." Bamus wiped the tears that had come out of the corner of his eyes.

Hades and Gusto had already boarded the Horse-Carriage that Cefo had brought. Cefo himself drives it.

The rest of the crew had already gone ahead to look for lodging and doctors.

Ben opens the horse-drawn carriage and helps Bamus raise Richi.

"How's the condition?" Hades observes the unconscious Richi.

"Not good Captain.." Ben did not dare to look at his Captain.

"Relove fast, but be careful.." Hades was unable to see his cousin in such a condition.

He was so upset that he couldn't say anything. The anger reached the top. He regretted letting ******* insane it came home.

They arrived at the inn a few hours later. The sky was already late in the afternoon so Cefo had to really take extra control of his Horse.

Doctors quickly helped Hades and Gusto down. Then bring a cage to bring Richi down from the train.

There are 3 nurses who help the doctor, they work quickly and do not waste time. Richi's life depends heavily on their speed at work.

Richi was transferred into the room. He did not move in the slightest, his breathing was weak and his body was cold. Doctors remove disinterested people, only nurses are allowed inside.

Hades was in the same room as Gusto. Gusto had already started to speak clearly, another nurse had already stitched up the wound on his head and given painkillers.

Hades was lying on his back, he had also taken the same painkiller as Gusto. The nurse advised him to rest without doing any activities.

"How is Mr. Richi, Captain?" Gusto began to ask questions that Hades did not know the answer to.

"I don't know.."

"Doctors say nothing?"

"They haven't been out of there since.."

"Really?"

"Yes.."

"I won't let ******** it pass this time.."

"Let me kill him Hades.." Gusto clenched both his hands tightly.

"Don't do that.."

"Go home.."

"Sure, after killing him." Gusto lay down with difficulty.

"Richard will do it.." Hades looked at the white ceiling.

"Well.."

"Of course.."

"Mr Richard will do it.."

"But.."

"Maybe he'll wake up?"

"Don't say such a thing.."

"You're scaring me.."

"Yes.."

"Mr Richard will return.."

* * *

The doctor came out a few hours later with a forehead full of sweat.

"Sir.."

Hades woke up and was surprised to see the doctor looking at him.

She fell asleep because the nurse gave her sleeping pills.

"Yes.."

"Sorry, Sir.."

"What's wrong?"

"Mr Richi is in critical condition."

"He lost a lot of blood."

"3 ribs on the left are broken and 2 on the right are broken."

"His leg was hurt really bad."

"It would have been better if Mr. Richard had been taken to an adequate hospital."

"Can't you do it?"

"I'm.."

"I'm not sure I can do it, it'll probably be very time-consuming.."

"And also.. He was truly in a state of crisis that at all times had to be monitored."

"His head hit hard.."

"Well..."

"Will he die?"

"Is that what you mean?"

BUKS!

Hades hit the table next to him, Gusto woke up to hear his loud voice.

"I'm.."

"I don't know Mr.."

"I can't predict such a thing.." The doctor was terrified to see the frightening look in Hades' eyes.

"You need to make it stable!"

"That's your job!"

"Do your best!"

"I'll pay you anything!"

"Do it!" Hades' tears just flowed. She can't remember the last time she cried, but seeing Richi lying helpless like that left her devastated and weak.

"Do it!"

"Do your best!"

"I beg you.."

"Save Him.."

Hades wiped away the tears that kept coming out. He remembered back then, when both his parents drowned, He didn't even cry in the slightest.

"I'm.."

"I'll try, sir.."

"Really?"

"You're really gonna do it?"

The doctor nodded. He didn't know why He accepted it, but He didn't want to see anyone else just die in front of his eyes.

The doctor went back to see the nurse in Richi's room. He gave instructions quickly, then they nodded simultaneously.

Hades had not been able to breathe in calmly before seeing Richi open both his eyes.
