Chapter 1: The Forgotten
The sunset was shining beautifully upon the town. From the sidewalk in the park, I had the perfect view of watching the sight of the shine making hipnotizing colors upon the surface of the ocean from the beach that was right next to me. Every evening on my way home from my college. I was the kind of girl who preferred a house to a small dorm room. And there was no room mate to bother me.

I had been in college for about a year or so. Even in college we had to wear uniforms. But thankfully that was optional. I preferred my own outfit. It was a red T-shirt and black skintight capris. Well that was today's outfit anyway. I liked the color of red and black. Had it's own personality to it... Plus it also reminded me of...

Anyway, my name is Hikari. Hikari Tokagouwa. With blue shoulder length hair and blue eyes to match. My life seemed so boring. More boring than I ever could imagine. However... Strange things had been happening, recently. Stranger things than I could comprehend. But I'll save that for later.

I walked out of the park and onto my block. Passing doors and alleyways. My eyes closed a moment and felt that I was passing a strange dark presence. I opened my eyes and looked back behind me. Nothing was there. Nothing at all. So I shrugged and kept going.

Many people called Kodani The City of Ghosts. However, some didn't believe in that sort of thing. One thing I do know is that I believe that might be true. Because at that very moment. I could have sworn I saw one.

I finally reached my door. Opened it and went in. Kicking my shoes off and dropping my back before going into my living room and collapsing on the couch. I layed back, thinking. I looked at the clock. 5:15 PM. I was thinking of getting up to make myself dinner. But before I could do that I drifted off into sleep.

Then
The vacation of summer was barely beginning, and I was 18. I was walking beside a dear friend of mine. He had spikish red hair, with green eyes to match. I always teased him about his hair. I used to call him "Alex the Hedgehog" when we were little. Due to our haircolors, people always referred to us with the nicknames of Fire and Ice. Alex being Fire and me being Ice.

Alex loved the color black and red. Understandable really since he was always a punk at heart. And we were bestfriends... until the end.

It was night, and we were walking back home. We lived right next door to eachother so it was no biggy. We had to go through the park by the beach in order to do that though. When Alex stopped. Something had caught his eyes. He looked over toward the beach.

I stopped and looked at him. " What is it?" I had asked. "There's something down there.." He said almost quiet. It confused me because he was never usually this quiet unless something was really wrong. Before I could stop him he went down to the beach. "Alex! Hey wait!" I called. He just looked back and shhhed. He continued down the beach. I could barely make it out but there seemed to be a dark figure there. Dressed in a black leather trenchcoat. I couldn't see his or her face because they had a hood up.

I started following Alex. Both to drag him away and to see who this person was at the same time. Alex was getting closer to this figure. Why? I wondered that. Why was he using this fraction of time on a stranger he did not know? Someone that perhaps was just watching the ocean... At... Night.

I saw the figure turn their head slightly toward Alex. Alex stiffened slightly but he did not move. He had this strange facial expression. That kept changing with every passing moment. As if the figure was mutely talking to him, and that he could hear it.

Alex growled slightly. " What the hell does that mean!" He yelled out of the blue. And I froze slightly behind him. I wondered at the time, what he was talking about. Was the figure speaking to him in a way that I could not hear?

Then, suddenely, the figure made a hand gesture. And a strange little black creature appeared. It was short, had a frog like appearance, with antennas. It was black with yellow eyes. It's appearance screamed evil. Alex made a face and stepped away. " What is that thing!" He demanded. I watched as it circled around us. My eyes on it at every moment.

Then suddenely it came at us so fast I couldn't even blink. Whether it was coming at me or Alex didn't matter, because Alex got in the way anyways. The black thing tackling him, and before either of us could react, it shoved it's little hand inside Alex's chest, without injuring the skin or making it bleed, right where his heart was. His eyes became hazy, and in a silent instant, he disappeared inside a vortex of darkness. The attacking creature dissapeared and I could see that an orb was coming from where Alex had been and I reached to touch it, it dissapeared inside my palm and seemed to spread through me.

The figure dissapeared as the vortex that swallowed Alex dissapeared as if it was never there. I was angry, sad, and lost. I collasped to my knees. " ALEX!" I screamed as loud as my lungs allowed.

Now
My eyes shot open as I sat up on the couch. A drop of sweat on my forehead. I covered my face with my hand. That dream.. It was no fantasy dream people have. That was a memory. One that so often I would try to forget. That was a year ago this day. But now I was 19 and still hiding my grief from that night. I looked at the clock, which now said 6:45 PM.

I looked outside before turning on the TV and going into the kitchen that was in the same room so I could make dinner and watch TV at the same time. I started cooking some chicken. Watching television. It was currently on the music channel. That singer Kelly Clarkson was on. And she was singing a song that was perhaps what I felt right now. "Because of You". I sighed and turned it off.

After dinner I took a shower and went into my bedroom. I sat on my bed a few minutes, looking over out the window. Perhaps to look for a sign of what I should do next. I sighed sadly and and layed back in my bed, turning off my lamp. Attemping to fall asleep. Trying to hold back my tears from remembering that dreadful day.

The day Alex died.
