Chapter 1

Haruhi was working at the hotel get a way. She couldn't help but love the feeling of the sun on her face. Her hair was to her shoulders now, but she kept two simple pins to keep her face clear.

The host club members kept showing up to make her day more hectic. So when she had moments without them, she savored them.

She worked during spring break, but this is exactly where she wanted to be.

"Haruhi!" the lady manager called. Haruhi smiled to herself and hurried to the back door. "I need you to go into town and get these items." She instructed, giving her a list.

"Sure, no problem." Haruhi agreed looking over the paper. She went up to her little room she stayed in while she worked here and changed her clothes. She flipped her hair up into a pony tail and with a light sun dress and a pair of sandals, she was ready for a quick shopping trip.

In her own mind while she walked, she didn't realize she was making wrong turns. Soon she looked up and saw nothing familiar. She turned around and walked back where she came. Again nothing looked familiar.

The stores around here were boarded up. Some even had broken windows. She heard a creek behind her. She flipped around.

"Hello?" she called out, her heart beat accelerating. A cat ran through a window, moving a wood shutter. "Stop being stupid." She demanded of herself. She walked left then right and ran into dead end alley.

The clouds covered the sky.

"I hope it doesn't rain." She said out loud. 'Or thunder.' She yelped at the thought. The sky opened up and the rain started to pour.

She tried to push her hair out of her face. The alley got darker, and the line of sight lessened.

Out of options, she climbed up a ladder to a roof. Her thinking was seeing more area, find the right way back. She was careful not to climb to fast or lose her grip. She was half way up when the ladder began to pull away from the brick wall.

Panic set in. she started to climb down, but it wasn't fast enough. The ladder ripped away from the wall.

She couldn't even yell before she hit the ground, the ladder falling on top of her.

When she opened her eyes, it was dark. With a grumble she began to get up. Her leg hurt, her back ached, her head pounded. She was having real trouble moving she leg. The rain lessened to a trickle. She was soaked and the cold started to affect her with a shiver.

She looked around her for help, but there was no one. Just shadows.

The ladder was still on her one leg. A quick shove the ladder clattered away. The sound echoing in the alley.

She tried to stand but moving her leg was excruciating painful, walking was impossible. She was racking her brain of what to do.

At this moment, she'd give anything to have the annoying, overcrowding group of boys to bombard her. The slowed more giving some kind of sight.

The door down the alley began to open. In this part of town, god only knows who was swatting here. She looked around her for a weapon. She held onto a lead pipe for dear life.

Her heart was beating so hard in her chest, she held her breath and she was shaking everywhere. She wasn't expecting to see a familiar red head knock out of the door.

Completed.
