Lavi trucked his way through the thick snow. He was heading home, after another boring day at school. It was the same as always. Lavi wasn't very popular at school. He had only friend and her name was Lenalee. She was a sweet Asian girl, who has obsessed with anime and thus had introduced it to Lavi. Now they were referred to as "anime freaks." No one really liked those two. Lenalee had said it didn't matter, and as long as they had each other they could be happy. But deep down inside Lavi had always wanted to be popular. The most popular guy in the school (even if he didn't know it) was Yuu Kanda. Kanda was cool and mysterious. He had an air around him that drew you in and made you want to know more about him. He didn't talk very much, but people still hung around him anyways. Kanda got everything: invitations to parties, sports games, and he was popular among the cheerleaders. If Lavi could be associated with Kanda….If only…He'd be so popular!
Whenever Lavi tried to flirt with girls, they would laugh, or call him a klutz and walk away. No thought Lavi thought about it, he was real goofy sometimes. Lenalee had said it herself, but afterwards she said she liked his easy-going nature. She also said people don't know what a friend they were missing out on, because they're "judging a book by its cover."
Basically she was saying Lavi looked weird. Now that he thought about it…I do look a bit strange… He had an eye patch over one eye and a bandanna holding up his hair. He kind of looked like he belonged to a cult or something. Maybe that was another reason stayed away from him?
He chuckled to himself. Good old Lenalee…He appreciated it when she tried to cheer him up, but sometimes you just don't want to hear that kind of thing from your friends. Sometimes you need the opinion of other people. "Oh well, it's not like it's going to change." He continued his walk home, and then he heard something. He listened. It sounded like sobbing.
"Please...help me…" A voice squeaked.
It was a kid! Oh, God. Lavi took a detour from his path "Hello?" He called. More sobbing. "Where are you?" he called again. Lavi walked closer towards the sound. "Please..help me…" The voice said again. "Hold on, I'm coming," Lavi said. He walked even closer towards the sound and then…Crack
Lavi looked down. He was standing on ice and it cracked. Sweet Jesus, he thought. As soon as he lifted his foot to run off, the ice broke. He was pulled down into water. Freezing cold water…Colder than you can imagine. He opened his mouth, as if to gasp for air. Bubbles filled with floated to the surface. He held his breath. This is no good, he thought. I have to….make it…to the…surface.
He tried to move his hand and foot, as if to swim upwards. It was no good, the hypothermia was setting in. He body felt so cold…the water felt so cold, that it literally stung him. He felt his conscience slipping away. He looked up one more time. There was some light coming from the hole. Is this it? Am I gonna die? Good bye Panda-Jjiji and Lenalee...I didn't even get to see the new episode of Mobile Suit Gudam...he thought. That's ok. Suddenly, Lavi just wanted to sleep. He closed his eyes.
Should I feel bad? I killed Lavi! *sob* Don't worry he'll be fine…Maybe *evil laugh* You'll have to read the next chapter to find out. Hehehe….
