Past Trauma
The audience roared loudly as Aomine slammed the ball into the hoop. Each miracle showing off their talent and stopping their opposition. Their opponents weren't a violent team but they were quick on their feet and caught onto the Generations plan. Akashi changed his strategies every now and then to keep them from guessing their next move. They were playing very well with their scores ranked much higher than their opposing team. Everything was great but no one expected this to happen…..
The ball had missed the hoop and hit the board. Akashi had jumped up to catch it but his eye miscalculated the speed of the ball. Everything happened to quickly for anyone to have reacted. The ball pushed his head right back and enough for him to hear and feel a crack. His body fell back landing on an arm and leg bad and heavy. His body bounced off of the floor and continued rolling to a stop halfway down the court. He laid on his front head facing the teams. A hand by his face and the other stretched out, one leg was straight and the other bent. His head began to paint the polished floor red.
"Akashi!" his team had shouted, their eyes shocked and frozen on his still beaten figure.
"He's not getting back up." Aomine shouted as he raced towards his fallen captain. Kneeling down he gently and lightly placed his hand on Akashi's wounded back and leaned down. "Oi, Akashi." He said calmly but was too afraid to shake him in case if the severity of the injuries. He felt, however, his body was shaking slightly and his breathing was quiet but hitched.
"Sei!" Kuroko shouted as he rushed from the bench with the coach and subs. "Aomine, is he ok?" Kuroko said with shivers as he stopped by Akashi.
"All I know is he needs a doctor immediately."
"Everyone back!" the coach had ordered as he reached the front of the crowd. "Move back, give him some air!" he eyed the students as they moved back.
The audience were in confusion while the other team kept to their end and watched from afar. The player, who had attempted to score, knew this was his fault but his captain had reassured that it could've happened to anyone in any game and that he was sure Akashi wouldn't hold it against him. Aomine had moved away from his captain but Kuroko just fell to his knees in shock. His eyes full of fear and water. He could feel the tears falling from his eyes. They didn't mean to have an argument and they didn't mean to fight one another. He loved him dearly but they gotten into a stupid argument and that they were going to talk after the game. But now this! Kuroko felt like his heart was break. He reached out and gently held Akashi's weak and motionless hand. The coach had checked the red head over but his head needed sorting urgently. He had instructed one of the players to bring over a towel to help stop the bleeding. He also pulled out his phone called for paramedics and explained briefly the situation.
"Alright, let's keep back. Can I have two volunteers to watch out for the ambulance?" he asked and two players offered. "Ok great. Kuroko…" he watched the frozen boy perk up upon hearing his name. "…can you hold the towel and stop the bleeding please?" he politely asked and Kuroko slowly took the towel that was offered and crawled round to Akashi's head and dapped it before carefully lifting his now light head to place the towel underneath and folded. He held it there unless he was told to take it away.
"Akashi Seijuro." The coach said to see if the captain responded. No response. He then placed two fingers to check for a pulse. It was weak. He was worried that he had a dying child but worried him more was that he didn't know what type of injury Akashi had or the severity of it. No matter how hard he tried Akashi just wasn't responding.
When the paramedic's arrived with their kit and collapsed stretcher, they immediately rushed towards the fallen boy and took action. Kuroko stayed where he was as support but the coach was taken to one side to explain to them what had happened. They checked over his by eye before they poked and prodded him for a reaction.
"No response." Medic one said.
"Keep trying, we need his conscious to know how bad the pain is and here it is." Medic two replied. "What's his name?"
"Akashi Seijuro." The coach answered.
"Ok." Medic two leaned down and tapped the boy's back. "Akashi Seijuro, it's the paramedics. I know you can hear us but we would like a physical response. Now, you're not gonna like this but, we're gonna apply pressure on your body to see where the damage is, alright?" he spoke in a calm manner. The man began to apply pressure around until he reached his neck. He stopped when he heard a loud moan. "Does that hurt?" the medic said looking to see the boy slowly opening his fazed eyes. "It's ok, does that hurt?" he earned another moan. "Ok, are you able to speak and if you can speak slowly, alright?" he advised.
"…urts…" Akashi spoke weakly and a croaky voice.
"Sorry?" the medic leaned down to catch it again. "Hurts, ok, are you able to tell me where?"
"A-All….ver….."
"All over, alright. On the scale of one to ten, how bad is the pain?"
"…..ten…."
"Ten, ok, now I'm gonna feel your neck for any swollen or broken bones ok?" he said knowing that was the cause of Akashi to react. He carefully felt the boy's thin neck while his ears heard the moans growing louder and louder. "Ok." He man sighed. "I think he might have a small fracture. Can I get the face mask." He said and the first medic gave him it. He carefully place it on Akashi's face. "I've noticed your breathing is off, is there anything causing this?" Akashi couldn't reply. The first medic had done a feel over his body while the second was communicating. "Right, we need to stop the bleeding in his head and get him on a stretcher. Radio for air ambulance the roads would be too hard for his injuries." The first medic reached into their bag and pulled out a head brace.
"We need to turn him on his back." She said.
"Gently and carefully." The second man replied.
Kuroko moved when the medics told him to and they took position to turn the red head. The two counted to three and with great care turned him round onto the prepared stretcher. Akashi screamed with pain as he was moved. The scream was sharp in their ears and they could sympathize with out much pain he was in. once he was on the board the female fitted the head brace and strapped it. Once she had done it she then radioed for a helicopter to come to the scene while the male tried to patch up the split on the boy's head. Now he was on his back he could see the problems clearly. His arm and leg were in weird positions and he could see his neck starting to bruise. "Ok, I'm going to straighten your arm and leg before we go anywhere, alright?" he then proceeded to pop his leg and arm into place and again, Akashi screamed. "Alright, alright. That will feel much better now. Once the helicopter is here, we're going to air lift you to the General Hospital and thee you will be treated."
The air ambulance had arrived and within minutes Akashi was on his way to the hospital. The game didn't continue and none of the players spoke of it. The Generation however, raced to the hospital where Akashi was currently being treated. When they had arrived they spotted a posh looking businessman talking with Midorima's dad. The doctor had explained that Akashi's injuries where severe. His neck had a fracture, an arm and leg were broke in three places and his head had suffered a lot of trauma. It was a very bad fall and something the team didn't think that half of those had happened from their vision. But what had caught their attention the most was that Akashi was now in a coma. He had suffered seizures during the surgery which had led to him have a serious attack before the coma settled in. All they knew is that his wounds were beginning to show signs of healing but when he would wake up, they didn't know. The older Akashi was trying hard not to break over his son's ordeal and the doctor knew this. The coloured group could tell this serious and strict man was breaking because his son would not be home and would be missing time away from his future studies.
At the moment Akashi was stable.
I'm sorry for not updating any of my other stories but I have been back at college and things have gotten hectic lately, so I will update soon when I get the chance.
