Chapter 1 The End

The clouds filled the sky, casting a dark shadow across the city. The city lights burned and guided her on her way to nowhere. The cold of the night caused chills throughout her body. Lighting flashed and thunder roared but the night was still silent. The skies would cry the blackest tears tonight and this was the moment she lived for.

"Just a ghost to the world is exactly what I am," She said to herself looking into the black clouds.

No one will ever reach their dreams, be anything worth being or make a difference so why try?

Sprinkles of rain fell onto her face. Only a few drops and then it all starts coming down.

She stood in the middle of the street and stared into the sky. She reached in her jacket pocket.

"Hotaru you always said tomorrow is another day but-," She cried as she pulled out a dark object from her jacket pocket.

"There is no tomorrow for me." She said as she held a gun to her head.

This pain I feel, it will end now...forever.

She hesistated and then she slowly pulled the trigger.

Through the whole city, no one heard the loud bang and when people saw her body laying in the streets, no one cared enough to check if she was alive.

The Next Morning

The morning came and shined through Hotaru's windows. Hotaru rolled around in her bed, trying to dodge the light. Annoyed, she sat up.

"Another beautiful morning..." She sighed.

Rubbing her eyes, she looked around her room and at the edge of her bed was her thirteen year old sister.

"Talking to yourself again?" Rin snickered.

"What hell are you doing here? Get out of my room!" Hotaru yelled as she pointed at the door.

Rin giggled the whole way out and pointed at Hotaru's hair. Hotaru crawled out of bed, pulling at her hair. She walked into her bathroom, already picturing the worst in the mirror. Everything in her bathroom was on the floor.

Mom's gonna kill me...

She had a rough night and she thought about everything she said. She threw water on her face and gazed into the mirror. She frowned at her reflection. She bended down and picked up her comb.

"Kusso!" Hotaru cursed when she cut her finger on the broken glass.

She put pressure on her finger, she watched as the crimson blood expelled from her cut.

"HOTARU! Came Here Quick!" Hotaru heard her sister yell from the living room.

Hotaru walked slowly out of her room but when she came to the living room, Rin was crying.

"What's going on?" Hotaru asked and then Rin pointed at the T.V.

"This morning a young girl at the age of 15 was found dead in the middle of the street. The residents of the area state that the body had been there since last night but yet no one had called the police and reported it. This looks like a common teen suicide. A gun shot to the head and this young girl ended her life. No idenification has been-wait wait, we have just heard from our resources that a teenage girl had been reported missing yesterday and they believe this is the girl. Oh dear, the teen who commited suicide has been idenified as Lynn Shouri. A student from Fukoma High of the age of 15 has commited suicide. How sad, to throw her life away like that. She leaves behind her mother. This is Jennifer Portman with the news."

Hotaru fell on the couch and she held her chest, feeling her heart race. Her heart pounded against her chest and feeling as if she couldn't breathe. Gasping for air, she rested her head in her hands and sobbed.

"I'm so sorry," Rin whispered as she caressed her sister's back.

Hotaru hit her hand away.

"Don't touch me," Hotaru commanded.

Rin frowned and strided away into the kitchen.

"Lynn...Why?" Hotaru sobbed and whimpered.

Over and over again she asked why, and demanded answer. When she realized that there would be no answer, that she was truely gone, forever. Her only true friend, her best friend, the only person who ever understood her had dissappearred and left her. Leaving her on her own free hurt Hotaru the most but Lynn's pain hurt more. Hotaru understood Lynn but not what she had done.

Hotaru pulled her hair and tightly shut her eyes, hoping, praying she'd wake up.

"Hotaru? Are you okay?" Rin nervously asked.

Hotaru opened her eyes slightly and growled.

"Do I look okay? My best friend commited suicide all because of wha...t I said!" Hotaru yelled as grabbed her sister's shirt collar.

Rin stared into her sister's cold hurt eyes. As her sister breathed through her teeth and Rin held her breath, she understood what she felt.

"Because of what I said to her..." Hotaru trembled.

:FlashBack:

"You don't fool me one bit Lynn," Hotaru smirked.

Lynn gazed out the window and then turned to Hotaru.

"You want everyone to believe that you got it bad! Huh? Everyone's got problems Lynn! You just want pity! Well Lynn I do pity you!" Hotaru shouted in Lynn's face.

Lynn stood up with tears in her eyes and put her hair behind her ears.

"You don't know how it feels that you will never EVER be happy! And when you finally understand that concept and step out of your little box, then you can tell me what to do!" Lynn sternly said as she walked towards the door.

Hotaru intercepted and stood in front of the door.

"You only feel that way cause you let yourself...I'm tired of your drama and to tell the truth I don't care what you do anymore." Hotaru glared.

Lynn walked out and slammed the door.

:End Of FlashBack:

I lied Lynn. I do care, I do!

Hotaru let go of Rin and sauntered out of the kitchen.

I do...

Hotaru fumbled with her school uniform and grabbed her book bag.

"Ho-Hotaru, you don't have to go to school today. I promise I won't tell mom," Rin whispered.

Hotaru turned back and looked at Rin, who was trying to put a smile on.

"I won't tell.Okay?" Rin promised.

Hotaru smiled but only half way and replied," No its okay."

Tears rolled down Hotaru's cheeks.

"I'm going now," Hotaru quickly said as she ran out the door.

Hotaru ran down the street and past all the people then fell on the street curb.

Why?

Her knees burned and her clothes were wet but she didn't care because as people walked past her, no one said anything.

Hotaru picked up herself from the floor and crossed the street.

When she got to school, everyone stared.

I guess everyone watched the news this morning...

People came up to her and asked her of she was alright. She would nodd but she wasn't alright. People were surprised to see her at school and so was Hotaru. Hotaru's intentions weren't to come to school but to see Lynn's mom. On the other hand Hotaru and Lynn's mother never really seem to see eye to eye.

Hotaru sat at her desk and laid her head down. She cried the whole class with the occasional whimper. She listened to the rumors in the halls when she walked to her next class.

"Word is that Lynn was never there in the head."

"Really I heard she was always suicidal."

"I heard she commited suicidal cause Hotaru said something awful to her."

"Really, and she was suppose to be her best friend."

"How could she be so mean?" is all Hotaru would hear.

And it was only the first day of the angonizing torture, she'd endure for the next year and a half.

One Year and a Half Later...

"And what did you say to Lynn the night before she commited suicide," Dr. Terry asked Hotaru.

"I said I didn't care about her anymore," Hotaru replied looking at the ground.

Before the 'Dr.' could ask another question, a buzzing sound filled the room.

"Oh, seems like time is up." Dr. Terry stood up and held his hand out.

"Seems so Doctor." Hotaru sacrastically replied.

Hotaru shook his Dr. Terry's hand and reassured the 'Dr.' she'd be there same time next week.

"Yes, that's fine as long as you have the money to pay." The Dr. smiled.

Hotaru nodded and the a man enterred the room to escort Hotaru out of the office.

I'm not crazy. I know where the door is.

Hotaru walked down the hall when Dr. Terry called to her.

"Hotaru! Yes, Hotaru catch!" the out of breath man yelled and then threw a bottle to her.

Hotaru caught the bottle and was puzzled.

"To help you sleep!" He said.

Hotaru smiled and thanked her therepist.

I never said I had problems sleeping...

Stupidly she put one in her mouth.

If the doctor thinks it is necessary. It'll take awhile for it to kick in...

When Hotaru arrived home, her mom was watering the plants in the front porch.

"How was therepy dear?" Hotaru's mother asked kindly.

"It was therepy mom.." Hotaru retorted and enterred the house.

Hotaru never forgived herself for what happened to Lynn or what Lynn did to herself. Better yet what Lynn did Hotaru. Hotaru collasped on her bed and in her right hand held a picture of Lynn and Hotaru laughing like they always were. In the hallways she could hear her mother looking through the hallway closet.

"Oh dear," Hotaru heard outside her door.

Hotaru's mother opened Hotaru's door slightly and then peeked her head through.

"Look what I found." Hotaru's mother held up a plank of wood.

The plank of wood wasn't just wood but it had 'FireFly' carved into it.

Hotaru's eyes flooded with tears. On the bottom right hand cornor of the wood it had 'From your best friend, Lily Pad.' carved into it. Hotaru envisioned the day that Lynn gave her that, she remembered their nicknames, she could still hear Lynn's soft voice calling her.

"Look what else I found." Her mom held out her palm and it was Lynn's and Hotaru's best friend key chain.

Hotaru couldn't take it anymore. She snatched ther keychain from her mom.

"What's a matter with you Hot-" was all she said untill she push ed her mother out of the way.

Hotaru ran down the hallway, she out her hands against her ears to keep from hearing her mother calling. She kept running, past her house, past everyone, past everything. She ran along side the road and never stopping. The rain began falling, hard. Her vision got blurry but not from the rain but from the pill.

No not now, I can't stop. I have to keep running. They can't catch up to me.

Her body didn't feel tired or at all fatigue till now but she continued to push herself.

Keep going. Keep going. I can't stop now. Lynn...

Her vision continued to get more and more blurred but she didn't stop, her mind was strong, her body weak, her will stronger.

Lynn...

A car sped down the highway, the people didn't see her there. When they did it was too late, they honked their horn but this girl kept running, straight for them.

Hotaru saw the light and she tried to stop but her feet were to slow.

Then an angelic voice said, " In the end, you will find the beginning..."

The car's brakes screeched and the tires swerved on the wet road but the efforts were useless. Hotaru's body flew over the hood of the car and into the air.

The car finally halted and Hotaru's blood soaked and mangled body laid sixteen feet away from the car.

"In the end, you find the beginning..."

Good? Bad? Plz review and tell me. I know it doesn't seem like it has anything to do with DBZ but it will! Bare with... This is Jura, See Ya Later ; )
