Chapter One
Life's So Hard on Me
I'm tired of spinning my wheels
I need to find a place where my heart can go to heal
I need to get there pretty quick
Hey mister what you got out on that lot you can sell me in a pinch?
I rode my red corvette, trying to out run the memory. No matter how fast the car could go, it was not fast enough. She stayed right where she was comfortable: on my mind, and in the passenger seat like she was really there.
Who am I? I asked myself. I couldn't stand being Kaioshin anymore. No longer would that be a part of who I am.
My mind thought of aliases and several came to mind, but only one stuck to my mind: Shin Grey.
Ok, I'm Shin Grey, and I came from a place far to the north and I didn't know what the name was anymore and I came to...wherever I'd stop, because it looked like a nice town. What did I need? One thing came to my conscious mind:
Speed.
I needed to get over her. I needed to fly away, but I wouldn't risk it.
I needed to get away from the memory. Go faster than the winds. Anywhere. Anywhere but my home.
Home isn't where my heart was anymore. No longer did I feel welcome.
My hair blew back in the wind, almost a white blur. My eyes were distant, focused on the road, mind on the memory I was trying to outrun.
The fight and flight of the girl with black hair and enormous power, and a heart that was bigger then the entire Earth was the memory that plagued me.
Katarel... The name sounded in my ears. My car zoomed on.
That's what I need.
It was killing. My heart was hurting and bleeding, and it would kill me soon if I didn't stop the flow. But the person she knew was cast in stone. Only she could reveal me.
All I need is an open road and a whole lot of speed.
I signed up for the first high school in the next town I came to, signing up for ninth grade.
I walked into my first class the next day, and stood in the doorway, unsure of where to sit.
I was wearing a hologram-watch, creating the illusion that I was a normal boy with short spiked hair.
It was study hall, and there were no free seats at first glance.
A girl stood up, 5'10" about, nearly my height, looking at me. She offered the chair next to her, and I quickly realized that was the only seat not taken. She was smiling and a brief thought fluttered in my mind. It disappeared quickly. I took the seat and she wrote something on a clean sheet of paper. She handed it to me and opened a book that had strange symbols written in it. She was writing more of them, and I quickly averted my eyes and read what she wrote:
New student? Welcome to Red Oak High. I'm Cass, but my friends call me Yami. What's your name?
I smiled. Yami. Dark. That really described her. She wore dark clothes and she had an almost misty look in her eyes. She was a mystery. Most people I could figure out, but not her.
She wore blue glitter on her cheeks, and her hair was cut to her shoulders and layered. It was an almost honey color. She wore glasses that had clouded silver frames. They made her look smart. She wore only one earring: A simple silver hoop with a plain, heart-shaped locket. I sat at her left, staring at her face for a moment before I wrote a reply to her:
I'm new here. I'm Shin Grey, but call me Shin. Do you have many friends here?
I slid it to her and she closed her book and read the paper silently. Then she frowned and wrote a response. I didn't like it when she frowned. She was so sad with only so simple a gesture.
Sliding it to me, I read,
No I don't. I just moved here with my gramma. I'm a new student too. What's yur next class, Shin?
I smiled and replied:
Spanish.
Cool! Me too!
And so my first day went off well. I made a new friend, and she had someone to be with her. We were great company for each other. And the more I watched, listened, and learned, the more and more I was convinced.
But I wouldn't be thoroughly convinced without proof. I would obtain that soon.
Neko Kai: How was that for a first chapter? A bit on the sappy side... Oh well. What is Shin convincing himself of? And who exactly is this Yami girl? Find out soon!
Later Dayz!
