Disclaimer: I dont own -man.
Everybody dies. No matter how you look at it. But i didn't think that i would die this way. I always thought that i would die peacefully in my sleep or that id piss somebody off so much that they'd decided to kill me. Well...i suppose the second is kind of relevant. I didn't think that i would lose myself inside myself...it sound confusing i know but maybe you'll understand as i tell you my story.
It all started with a phone call.
Chapter one.
I sat on my bed looking out the window. It was winter, and snow was falling from the sky. I wanted nothing more but to go out there and throw snow balls and build snowmen. But i couldn't. Instead i had to stay inside and finish my course-work. Its not like i could even get out after that. Mrs Galuier had locked the doors to stop all us girlies from getting out and doing 'vulgar things'. Fat cow, it was only because she couldn't run away if we decided to pelt her with snowballs.
I live at an all girls boarding school in Kent. I was thankful that being in sixth form had given me the choice of having a room of my own. First year I had to share a room with three other girls, none of which I particularly liked.
It was one of those school that taught girls to be strong figures in society. Most of the teachers were feminists.
I turned away from looking out the window and back to my algebra. I jotted down the last few answers before collapsing on my bed.
Ring, ring, ring, ring.
I sat up and stared toward the sound of the ringing. My phone. I stood up and lightfooted over all my junk until i could hear it more clearly.
Ring, ring, ring, ring.
Where the hell was that thing? I threw clothes out my way and finally at the bottom of the pile I found the little silver distraction. I glanced at the screen. Unknown number.
Do i answer it? Somebody could just be prank calling me. I shrugged and flipped it up.
" Yellow?" I said putting it to my ear.
" Yes or No?" The voice said on the other side of the line. It didn't sound familiar. Hell, it didn't sound female or male. More like a strange mixture between the two.
"Yes or No to what?" I asked. I was bored and my curiosity was getting the better of me.
" Yes or No?" The voice said again. I rolled my eyes. It didn't seem as if i would get anywhere with this.
" Yes" I said. Watching the 'Yes man' with Amy had left an impression on me. Yes to everything. Why the hell not?
" Thankyou for your answer." Then that was it. The phone went dead. I pulled it way and looked down at it. Did the battery go? The phones screen flashed red, then yellow, then blue, then a white so bright that I had to shield my eyes from the glare. Bright spots burned into the back of my eyelids.
I heard voices and...horses? I opened my eyes to see that I wasn't stood in my dorm room anymore. I was in the street.
What the hell is going on here? I spun in a slow circle taking in my surroundings.
It looked like something off a film set. Horse drawn carriage and cobbled streets. Even the people looked strange to me. The women were wearing long dresses and ,I almost laughed, bonnets. Then men had suits and top hats. What messed up world have I opened my eyes to? I must have passed out. Its the only explanation to all this crazy.
I turned around and bumped into something...or more like somebody. Before I could fall flat on my butt the person steadied me by putting their hands on my shoulders. They were big hands. I looked up..and i mean up. This guy must be at least 6 foot to my 5 2".
"Sorry. " I said totally embarrassed that I'd walked right into a stranger. Normally I was more co-ordinate than that. The guy smiled at me and it was the smile that made women everywhere swoon. He was tall, dark and very handsome.
"Its quite alight miss." He said and tipped his top hat. His eyes were such a dark brown they were almost black.
" I seem to be a little lost. could you tell me where I am?" I asked. he seemed like as good as any person to ask.
"Your on Gold street." He said. I frowned and he chuckled. " London." He said. Oh so this is my imaginary London. I normally have vivid dreams but this is unbelievable.
"Thanks. that really helps allot."
" Not a problem miss.." He obviously wanted me to introduce myself.
" Cassandra Walker." I said holding my hand out to shake it with him. Instead he held it and kissed the top of it. I felt my checks redden, which is strange because I don't usually get embarrassed easily.
" Your aren't related to an Allen by any chance are you?" He asked as he dropped my hand. I thought for a minute. My dad is an only child so i didn't have any cousins and i don't know what his new family are like.
" No i don't belive i am."
" Well miss Walker i must take my leave now. oh, i didn't introduce myself." He bowed a little. What era was i dreaming'? " I am Lord Mikk" He said. Why does that name sound familiar?
" It was a pleasure meeting you. Lord Mikk" I said he smiled at me.
"The pleasure was all mine, fair lady." and then he bowed again and left. I watched him walk down the street and he seemed to disappear. I sighed and started walking towards the park across the street. It wasn't snowing i noticed. The weather wasn't that warm though and the trees were bare. I looked down at my clothes. I was still wearing my skinny jeans and leather jacket, I was glad i hadn't decided to change into my p.j's.
As I entered the Park the air seemed to get cooler and I shivered. A man and a woman in Victorian clothes were walking ahead of me. The woman turned around and grinned at me. The smile split her face. I screamed as instead of the woman's pretty face there was this... thing. I couldn't even explain it to myself. As i was watching her the man changed as well. Two big ball like..things with chains and a face with a star on the forehead. Suddenly they had guns and they started shooting. The first bullet i dodged and it hit the tree behind me.
I didn't stick around. I ran outta there at full pelt. Into the woods hoping that I could change my dream and lose them in the deep forest. I screamed as the tree infront of me exploded but i didn't stop. I zigg zagged, getting faster and faster. A boy with white hair and a boy with red hair suddenly appeared infront of me. The red head stepped infront of me with a big mallet type hammer.
"Grow, Grow, Grow." As he said the words the hammer got bigger and bigger till it was almost the size of a house. How did he hold it? He whacked it down on the two monsters and they exploded. I was breathing heavily now, nearly hyperventilating. A hand grabbed my upper arm and I felt something cool press against my head.
" Oh Exorcists." The high pitched voice sang. The two boys turned around. It was the first time i had a good look at them. the redhead was really good looking. Pale skin and emerald green eye, the other was covered by an eyepatch. The white haired boy had a red scar running down his left side of his face.
" Let her go." The White haired boy said. My eyes widened as the grip on my arm tightened. I gasped in pain. Pain? But I'm dreaming. Aren't I? I heard something snap. And then I felt it. I screamed in pain as my left arm was broken. The bone snapping cleanly. This was the first time I had ever broke a bone and I dearly hoped I would never again. It hurt like hell. But i would'nt cry...no i could'nt cry.
This wasn't a dream. It hurt too much so it had to be real.
The white haired guys left arm suddenly changed into a huge white gun. He shot at the person holding me and blue-ish white light exploded from it and the hold on me was gone. I fell to the floor. My knees given way from all the running.
They both ran forward and the red head knelt down on the floor next to me.
"You alright?" he asked. I nodded.
"My arms broken i think." I gasped in pain as i tried to move it. " Yep...defiantly broken."
" We should take her back to the black order. They can fix it for her." The white haired boy said with a kind smile. The red head nodded.
" Agreed" He said and then he picked me up off the floor.
" I can walk." I said with a light put me down on the ground.
" So whats your name? any family in town we can call?" The white haired guy asked.
" No family. I'm Cassandra Walker." I said with a small smile. It was true i didn't have a family. my dad had shipped me off to boarding school when i was eight and moved to Spain with his new wife and her awful children. But Canada is my middle name. i don't like going by my first name. Don't ask...Its a long story.
" Walker?" The red head said. he looked at the white haired boy. " Relation of yours?" He asked. the boy shrugged.
" I'm Lavi and Thats Allen Walk-" But he didn't get to finish because a small green light shot out of the trees and straight into me. I gasped and then everything went dark. I was only aware that Lavi had caught me before i blacked out totally.
