Prologue
Sachiko lay amongst her ebony-black sheets, listening to her iPod... currently set on Rise Against. As the punk music played through her orange ear buds, she contemplated... well, everything. Her mind was a million places at once. She was thinking about how meaningful the lyrics were, how her parents always seemed to cook chicken for dinner, how it seemed impossible to beat her little sister in a game of cards, but most of all, she wondered about her crush, Axel. They were friends, extremely close friends at that, but that was all they'd ever be. Axel was positively in love w/ one of her other friends, Roxas. Not that Sachiko was mad at Roxas or anything... just... she envied him. They way Axel looked at him... she wished that it was her getting that look. That--oh speak of the devil. Said red-head was at her window now. Mumbling about how some people just didn't understand the concept of a door, she sat up in bed and waited for him to come tumbling into her room. The window swung open with a small "whoosh", followed by a soft thud as Axel climbed in and tumbled to the floor. Sachiko sighed and shook her head at her best friend.
"Axel!" she complained. "There is such thing as a door!" Glancing exasperatedly at him, it was then that Sachiko saw the broken, devastated look on Axel's face.
"Sachi... R-roxas... he..." he attempted to say, but quickly broke down into sobs. Sachiko was at his side in an instant, hugging him consolingly and whispering words of comfort in his ear.
"Shh... tell me what happened, I'll help you through it," she murmured, suspecting that Axel's boyfriend had broken up with him. Axel took a deep breath and then spoke again.
"Roxas is dead."
Author's Note: Yeah… pretty extremely short. Look, I'll make a deal with you. If I get at least 1 review today, I'll post the first chapter. If not, you guys might have to wait a while… AND to encourage you to review, I'll play a little guessing game with everyone. First correct answer gets themselves mentioned in one of the chapters in the near future… what fun! (btw, my dear friend Miyoko, you are not eligible for this as you already know the answer) Alright… and the question is… What color is Sachiko's hair? (HINT: the color is mentioned somewhere in this fanfic) Good luck everyone!
