A/N: You know what this section needs? A suspense story with mysteries that need to be solved and explosions and conflict and battles! I could just go on about it. And you know what show that would fit that description perfectly? KA. Okay, lets get started! I don't own Cirque du Soleil: KA or any characters.
Naomi [Chief Archer's Daughter]
It was a dark and stormy night. I lay on my side in a cold sweat. I have no clue how long I have been awake, but as far as I'm concerned, I should be sleeping like a baby like I usually do-storm or no storm. Tonight has just been so odd. I feel like I am being watched by some sort of creeper person. So not only I don't feel the need to sleep, but in case I do, I will refuse to sleep. I don't want to look behind me either. Gosh, there's too many things to think about tonight!
Should I look back? Should I run and find somewhere else to sleep? Better yet, find someone for help? Suddenly, there was a bright-strobe of lightning that lit up the whole room. Me, being on edge quickly looked on the wall in front of me, and what I saw nearly made me pass out, right there. Oh my, there was a silhouette-shadow of someone. Plain in black in white, a tall man stood still.
Oh dear, where should I go? What should I do? Gah! Okay, I'll try to find. . .Karasu! Yes, he has so many experiments and inventions and weapons. Another flash of lightning revealed the same silhouette, but now the man was more crouched over on my bed. A surge of adrenaline rushed through me, and that was my cue to run. I Ran as fast as a Ferrari, and never looked back.
I tried to yell, but I was too shocked and afraid to even whisper. I ran down three flights of stairwells to the main floor-where the Counselor and his son, Karasu stayed. I sprinted through the hallways that seemed to be more maze-like now. I backed up against a wall to catch my breath for a few seconds. But that didn't help at all, because I heard footsteps a few hallways away from me. Heh, extra boost of adrenaline, extra energy for running. Just down this hallway and to the left, just down this hallway and to the left, I kept thinking to myself. And when I reached my destination I felt the best I ever felt this whole night.
Karasu's room was lit up by a few lamps; probably working on some other contraption. "Karasu! Karasu!", I yelled, which caught his attention fully.
"What is it, Naomi? Why do you look like you just ran from your room?" He just kept throwing me questions, but I was more focused on closing and locking all five locks on the door until it was like we were trapped inside.
Still questioning me, I slid down the door and wheezed heavily, the air being knocked out of me. "The-. There's s-some, one, sta, lking. Me", I managed to make out.
"Wait, come up", he gestured to a stool next to the bed. "Who's stalking you? W-hat's going on? Breathe a little", he said when sitting down next to me trying to make my nerves settle. I calmed down after a few minutes. And I have never felt more happy to be in the presence of the Counselors' son. I clenched his hand and moved in a bit, I just couldn't bear to be alone or a distance away from someone.
"First of all, I didn't get any sleep so far. And then the lightning came and there was a man and then he crouched over me, and I ran down here. And he's still following me! Help, please!"
"Wait, so this person is still looking for you?"
"Yes, I just got over that!" I was so irritated.
"Well!" he loosened his hand out of mine and started going back to his machine thing.
"Karasu! Hey, I'm just way too stressed out, and I have a creep stalking me, just please try to bear with me for a moment."
My friend looked up at me from the desk with these strange little screws and tools. "Now you know I was just joking around with that bit. And you're going to have to bear with me on that. Follow me." I did so. He opened up this big closet to reveal lots of unusual weapons that ranged from bows and arrows, to the explosive bone powder (Which I'm surprised how it hasn't exploded yet)
Karasu continues to dig in the closet, when I noticed something odd about the door. Hadn't I locked all five locks? Now there seemed to be one lock undone. And with these. . .different locks, if you break one, than you break the rest. Please tell me its not what I think it is. Then, before my very eyes, the lock above the undone one just collapsed onto the floor like someone who got fork-eyed. This made me more freaked out.
"Karasu", I poked his back.
"Ah, what is it, now?" he turned around, and I showed him the two locks, just in time to see that the next one fell to the floor. He was just as astounded. "Okay", he whispered. "Take this, and I'll take this. Stay close to me, if someone breaks in, he doesn't stand a chance against these babies!" he handed me something that looked a dog-legged hammer, thing. Karasu took my hand, and wrapped us both in a dark blanket next to the door. Then he blew out the lantern lights.
"Karasu, what the hell did you just do?" I frantically whimpered.
"Shhh! Keep it down!" The next lock fell, Only one more lock left. Same as when I entered his room, I got into him closer and now both our hands clenched with each others'.
The last lock fell off, and the door slowly creaked open. What is going to happen?
A/N: Oh my gosh, I was just jumping all around and getting all scared just writing that! Hehe, what's going to happen next? Not even I know that. I just made this up in like a half hour. I like this start, and I want to learn what's gonna happen next, even tough I'm writing it. Suspense is awesome! ~Cristy.
