Giroro ran over to his comrade, watching as the bullet hole leaked blood onto the ground, frowning in dismay.
"Kururu! What happened?"
Kururu looked up at Giroro and smiled weakly, his glasses hiding his eyes.
"Ku ku... Enemy bullets... They were heading towards the base... So I tried to... hold them off..."
Giroro picked up the yellow keronian and carried him carefully to safety behind a rock, out of the way of potential threats. He set down the sgt major and pressed a button on his communicator, hoping to contact Pururu but not being able to. He looked frantically around for bandages or something to act as a bandage, but found nothing, so he looked down once again at the almost still sgt major.
"Kururu... I can't get medical assistance... Hang in there"
"Aww..." He spoke quietly "Senpai finally... cares..."
Giroro blushed lightly but said nothing, wondering how bad the wounds were. Kururu spoke
"Senpai... The wounds are... really deep, I don't... know how long I can stay alive without medical... assistance."
Giroro frowned as a wave of emotions hit him, he tried to prepare himself for the worse but had never really considered the concept of Kururu dying... He WAS Kururu, the yellow devil... But here he was, as mortal as anyone else, bleeding and hurt, and that sight hurt Giroro, it hurt him a lot.
"Please try Kururu..."
"Ku...ku..."
Kururu took of his glasses and placed them on the ground, knowing the end was sure to come and that there was no use hiding anymore, he looked up at Giroro and smiled weakly again, trying to ignore the pain. Giroro looked into the emotion-filled eyes of the sgt major and frowned, what he had dreaded being expressed in the yellow Keronian's green eyes. He was dying. Kururu was really dying; Giroro shed a singular tear, watching as Kururu watched it roll down his cheek and onto the floor.
"Don't... cry senpai... Ku ku" Each word got quieter and weaker.
Giroro said nothing, hugging Kururu close and begging Keron to let him live. Kururu blushed deeply and moved back, kissing Giroro on the lips suddenly and making the corporal blush.
"Ku ku... Stay strong... senpai..." He whispered before eyelids closed for the last time over green orbs, earning a choked sob from the corporal, the last thing Giroro whispered before breaking down into hysterical sobbing and hugging the body tight was:
"Sleep well, Kuru-chan..."
