Noise,
It rained down
On me,
Crushing me.
-
Like hail,
It pounded its way
Into my ears,
Scurrying inside my
Already battered
Brain.
-
My head buzzed
Like a timer,
As if the
Slightest thing
Could
Start the countdown
To destruction.
My destruction.
-
The noise
Emitting from the
People around
Me
Seemed to
Drastically
Increase
As if my senses
Had
Tripled
In mere moments.
-
My heart
Pounded
In my
Bruising
Chest
Like a frightened
Animal
On the bad
Side of a
Gun.
-
Some guy from
Geometry
Passed me
Another joint,
At least
I think it was
The guy from
Geometry,
(I have reached
The point
Where I
Could not
Tell my own
Mother apart
From
The creepy guy
Who works
At Blockbuster),
Asked if
I was
'OK'.
-
Was I
'OK'?
I'm not
Exactly
Sure.
-
I nodded anyway
Taking the
Pipe,
Ready to take
A nice long
Drag,
But I
Think
He sensed
My nervousness,
Because he
Snatched the
Pipe
Away from me
And replaced it
With
A plastic cup
Filled with
An amber liquid.
-
He told
Me to
Drink it.
-
So
I
Did.
-
Cheers
Vibrated
Off my
Eardrums
As I downed
The filled-
To-the-rim
Cup of
Liquid fire
Which only
Added fuel to
My inner
Trauma.
-
I staggered to
Lean on
A nearby
Oak
So
I wouldn't
Make a
Donkey of
Myself and
Sat on the
Ground with
My head
Between my
Legs, taking
Deep and calming
Breaths with
My eyes
Closed.
-
When I
Finally thought
I was calm
Enough and the
Noises were
Gone,
If not
Slightly tuned
Down,
I slowly rose,
My body
Leaning against
The tree for
Support.
-
I opened my
Eyes
Slowly,
Only to be
Assaulted by
Strange colors
And sounds.
-
Sharp oranges,
Blues, and
Reds twirled
Joyously
Behind hazy
Black blotches
Moving to the beat
With the loud,
Thunderous
Bass.
-
Gulping for
Fresh air,
I ran toward
My car,
Any car.
-
I battled my
Way through
People,
Getting drinks
Spilt on me
And a string
Of general
Curses being
Shouted at my
Fleeting
Back.
-
I jumped in
A banana
Yellow truck,
Wondering
Why I
Bought this
Bright ass
Yellow piece of
Crap.
-
Starting it
With the
Oddly shaped
Brass that
Dug relentlessly
Into my left
Hip,
I bolted
Out of the lot
Going
Anywhere
I
Belonged.
-
Gunning across
Deserted streets
I questioned
Myself and
Anyone
Who would
Listen
Just why it
Was deserted.
-
Just what
Happened
To my
So-called
Friends.
-
Just why,
Why was
I Left
Alone.
-
Suddenly,
As I was
Crossing
The bridge
Between myself
And
Freedom,
The past
And
The future,
Hell and
Heaven,
My right leg
Randomly
Vibrated.
-
Startled,
I
Jerked the
Wheel to my
Right.
-
This caused
My truck to
Crash into the
Right side
Barrier of
The bridge,
And,
With nothing
Else in its way,
My banana yellow
Truck
Dove engine first
Into the
Pacific Ocean.
-
I,
Being in
The driver's
Seat of
The truck,
Got front row
Tickets
To my own
Drowning.
-
Panicking,
I tried to
Undo my
Seat-belt,
Only to
Remember that
I didn't put
It on.
-
The water
Was rising,
My breath
Quickening,
And
My mind whirling.
-
Then
It stopped.
-
I stopped.
-
Sighing,
A low
Content
Sigh,
I chuckled lowly,
Remorsefully,
Almost
Boredly.
-
I know what's
Coming,
I may not
Like it,
But I can
Accept it.
-
The truck
Was now
Completely
Submerged in
Water.
-
The air vents
And
Windows
Leaked.
Water slowly
Cascaded down
To the
Floor and
Began to
Invade and
Conquer
Every single
Inch of
Leather and
Upholstery.
-
The dark
Power
Of
Water
Slunk slowly
But surely
Up to my
Neck,
My chin,
My mouth,
My nose,
Engulfing
Me
Whole.
-
My lungs
Started to
Burn with
The lack
Of oxygen.
-
And without
Any last
Thought,
I let go.
-a-oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-a-
PHONE CALL:
-
Ring…
Ring…
Ring…
"…
Just leave
A message at
The beep,
And I might
Call you
Back,
Got it?"
…
*BEEP*
-
"Hey,
Anko…
It's Kurenai…
And...
Well…"
-
"Anko,
I know you
Went to that
Party with Mr.O
And I know
You really like
Him
And all…
But…
Could you…"
-
"Arg!
Forget this!
Anko,
We're all
Really worried
About you,
We being me,
Asuma, Genma,
Kakashi, Tenzo,
Gai, Iruka,
And even Ibiki,
Though he
Won't admit it
Out loud.
Hell,
Even Tsunade
Is scared
Shitless that
You're going
To do
Something
Extremely stupid!"
-
"Damn it,
Anko!
Get it
Through your
God-damned
Head
That we're
Your friends
And come
See me!"
-
Sigh
-
"Anko…
Talk to me,
Just call
Me back
When you
Can,
I really
Miss you…
We all
miss you…"
