Chapter One: An Experiment Gone Wrong
{Mizuki's P.O.V.}
Hello wonderful readers, assuming this story has any. If not, then I'm just wasting my breath... Anyways for the maybe one or two people reading this, I might as well introduce myself. My name is Mizuki Nakamura. I am sixteen years old. I have chestnut brown hair that goes down to the middle of my back and emerald green eyes. I'm pale (not exactly unusual for the people of Japan), tall and lean. I live in the Kanto reign of Japan in an apartment with my three best friends, Aimi, Emiko and Haruko, or Haru for short.
Now, I bet you're thinking: 'Aren't you a bit young to be living by yourself with just your three best friends?', and I totally agree. But you see, we have no choice on the matter.
Two years ago when I was fourteen, and still living in my original hometown of Windsor Ontario, my best friends and I had all come to my house for my birthday party/sleepover. It was almost a tradition that all of our families did for our birthdays. We would spend all day shopping or watching movies and spoiling ourselves, then we would stay up until one o'clock in the morning or so, whispering and giggling with one another. But that year was different.
My grandfather had come for a visit from Manitoba, but this was no ordinary visit. You see, my grandfather is an inventor. Not the traditional old guy that sits in front of the television all day and occasionally tells you stories, that you really don't want to listen to, about when 'he was our age'. So when my grandfather came down for a visit, it was to show us his newest invention: a device that allowed a person to transport themselves anywhere in the world with a click of a button. Pretty cool right? I thought so too. Key word there is thought as in past tense.
My grandfather begged my friends and me to try it out by transporting ourselves from my bedroom to the living room, and of course, we agreed. He set up the machine and told us to step up onto the platform. We did as we were asked.
It had been raining all day so far with the chance of thunderstorms lingering.
As my grandfather pushed the button to transport us, the first bolt of lightning came down. When he heard the thunder his eyes widened, leaving all of us panicked. What was he worried about? My grandfather rushed over to the machine, pushing buttons as fast as he could.
Nothing happened.
He looked over to us, one pair of terrified eyes meeting with four pairs of confused ones.
"Grandpa!" I had called out. "What's going on? Why do you look so... afraid?"
My grandfather just shook his head mutely, pain lurking in the depths of his eyes. "I'm... I'm so sorry! There's nothing I can do now! It's too late!"
A sudden pain had then exploded in my head and I swayed on my feet. I heard my friends gasp and fall to their knees behind me, but I was determined to stay standing. I needed answers.
"Why are you sorry? What's happening?" I shouted over the noises coming from the machine.
"It doesn't matter right now! You need to get off of the platform!" My grandfather yelled back to me. "Please! Grab your friends and come back!" His voice told me that his heart was breaking, though I didn't understand why. My vision blurred, but I saw my grandfather reach out to me.
The pain in my head was becoming almost too much to bear as I listened to my friends laboured breathing. I weakly raised my own arm, reaching out to him as if that would help. I groaned and brought both of my arms up and clutched my head, falling to my knees as well.
"No!" I faintly heard my grandfather's voice cry out, but could not reply. My throat burned, my vision blurred, my head pounded. I fell forward, and had to remove my hands from my head to catch myself.
"G-Grandpa..." I murmured quietly, straining against my sore throat. I could barely hear myself, so I doubted he could. I looked over my shoulder at my three best friends that had stuck with me through thick and thin. People often joked about us being sisters because of how close we were and how all of our names started with 'A'. Aubrey and Ashley lay unconscious on the platform while Alia struggled to stay on her knees. She looked up at me with questioning eyes.
"A-Alex... What's...? What's g-going on...?" Alia questioned me softly. I had to strain to hear.
I weakly shook my head, saying I was wondering the same thing, without words. She nodded her head weakly and groaned as she too fell unconscious. I struggled not to lose consciousness, but knew I was slowly losing the battle. I looked back at my grandfather to see tears streaming down his face. His mouth opened in speech, but I could hear no words. Suddenly my parents came running into the room. When they saw their daughter and her best friends on the ground, they too started to cry. My father turned to my grandfather with an angry expression on his face, his mouth opening and closing, so I assumed he was shouting. I still could not hear them over the noise of the machine and the pounding in my head. My mother just continued to sob.
I saw my grandfather shake his head sadly and looked back at my friends and me. My father did the same, tears streaming down his face once more. I didn't understand what was going on, and with my pounding head, did bother to try to comprehend. I knew I wasn't going to be able to stay awake much longer. I raised my right hand weakly and shook it slightly, a farewell wave.
I fell down and stayed like that. I didn't have the energy to get back up, or to even try. I was so tired... I just wanted to rest... So without a second thought, I closed my eyes stopped fighting with unconscious, and welcomed it...
AN/
Well... That's chapter one... How'd you guys like it?
In case you got confused, Alex (stands for Alexis) is Mizuki. Also, Alia is Aimi, Aubrey is Emiko and Ashley is Haruko (or Haru). Alex, Alia, Aubrey and Ashley were their names before they got stuck in the Kanto reign of Japan in the anime Death Note.
The next chapter will be in Alia's/Aimi's P.O.V, then it will be Aubrey/Emiko, then Ashley/Haruko, then back to my P.O.V. Rinse and repeat. (Lol)
Please review!
