Author Note: This is collaboration of only reading/watching the manga/spinoffs/movie. I kinda hope the characters aren't too OOC, but I wanted them to be a little improved since Alice came. Hope to download the game(s) soon, so if anyone knows a way, PWEASE TELLZ. Oh, and this is just the beginning story of how my OC's get there and meet the different Role Holders. I will write corresponding stories so my OC's can end up with different people. The OC's are based of me and my very good friend, but are no way US. No one is as kewl as me...XD

(P.S.: Alice is in this story, too.)

Chapter 1: The Art of getting into Deep Shit

HIKARI'S POV

*Zelda Theme song*

I groan as I reach over to my work desk beside my twin size bed to cut the alarm off on my cellphone. I bump around for a bit before eventually smacking at it, causing it to abruptly end in the middle of the theme. I sigh in bliss as I snuggle back under my super cozy blanket and nuzzle my pillow to find my comfy spot again, and begin to drift back into unconsciousness. In the plane between asleep and wakefulness, I hear a strange male voice.

"Hey, did you know?"

I decide to go with the stochasticity of the half-dream 'Know what?'

"Games always have rules"

'...Of course...it wouldn't be much of a game without them...duh'

"Rules that are meant to be broken."

'...Broken?'

"There are rules for those who don't play as well. I look forward to both of your participation. You can't refuse."

'Says you, random ass voice...I'll do what the hell I wanna...wait...both of us?'

Suddenly, I feel someone shaking my shoulder, and the slightest sound of a familiar female voice reached my sensitive ears.

"-ri"

I try and answer, "mmmmm?"

"-kari"

I grunt in response and roll over closer to the wall, burying myself under my cover trying to get away from my awaken-er. But that only serves to make her try harder in her endeavor, as she pokes at the patch of brown hair peeking up from underneath

"Come on, Hikari. Wake up."

I moan, "Nuuuuuuuu"

"Aha! I knew you could talk. Now get up! I know it's Friday, but that doesn't give you the excuse to sleep all day"

I roll back over and peek at her from underneath my purple cover and tiredly give her a stank eye, however, it only makes her laugh in response, and even if I can't exactly see her straight, I can tell her whole face is lit up in a bright smile.

"You're cruel to me, Kida." I sigh as I bring myself up to a sitting position, my brown hair sticking up at odd angles and my pink Minnie Mouse PJ's crumpled from sleep. I reach over again to my desk, only to hear something crash to the ground. I mumble a curse under my breath as I reach for my blue-rimmed glasses, delicately balancing them on the bridge of my nose over my melted-chocolate colored eyes. When I glance down, sure enough, my cell is face down on the floor. But it's ok, that phone is a survivor on many a deadly desk falls, so I pick it up, dust it slightly, and put it back where it originated.

As I do this, I say, "We don't even have classes today and you still wake me up at 8 in the morning, like clockwork. You could have waited till...i don't know...10 or something"

She shrugs her shoulders in indifference, her slightly curly boy-cut black hair bounces and her own rectangular violet-rimmed glasses slips down her tiny brown nose as she does so. She pushes them back up over somewhat serious dark brown-black eyes, saying, "There's only so much you can do in a dorm, you know. And your phone is supposed to wake you up at 7. Didn't you hear it?"

I shrug, staring into space, "Barely. I probably need to change it again."

I sleep very deeply and It's almost impossible to wake me up, but my ears are very sensitive to sound. And being on a collage campus in a girl's only dorm with your best friend, you can't help but hear some strange noises. Weather it's the animals outside...or upstairs. I remember the first few weeks where I barely got any sleep, listening to God-know-what in the wee hours of the night. But after a while, my ears got used to the sound and now I sleep like a babe. Now the only problem was waking me up so I'm not late for class. (Which, by the way, I HATE.) My solution? Have your cell as an alarm clock. Only problem with that is that I have to change the sound every week, because eventually my ears get used to the sound and I end up ignoring it.

The sound of here giggling registers and snaps me out of my reverie.

"Really? Week before last it was the Mario Theme. What's it going to be this time?"

I grin, "I dunno. Might be the Sepheroth Theme this time. I've been feeling all 'Final Fantasy' for a couple of days now. Just imagine it."

We glance at each other before busting out laughing. Being the nerds that we are, that's a joke that I supposed only us and a couple others could get. After a couple of minutes when we eventually get the morning giggle out of our system, Kida says, "V-very funny, Hikari. Are you going to get up yet?"

A idea suddenly pops into my head. I give her a quick smirk as I nose dive back underneath my coverlet.

"5 more minutes"

KIDA'S POV

She's always like this, ALWAYS.

Hikari is such a goofball, but I suppose that's what makes us the perfect friends. Whereas I am quiet and shy in nature, unsure how to approach others, she is high-spirited, her silly antics never creasing to make me laugh, although her more curious nature gets her into more crap than she can sometimes handle. But she's always friendly and kind toward everyone she meets, and unlike my other friends, she listens, always having an open ear to those who have problems in their life and giving helpful advice in return. And, even though I'll never admit it out loud, her personality has rubbed off on me in more ways than one. Ever since we meet in drawing class last semester, we have been the best of friends ever since.

And the best thing about friends is that you know what makes then tick.

"Ah well" I sigh dramatically, a typical Hikari-like gesture, "I wanted to go to the park today and have a picnic and do a little sketching. I was even going to bring a couple of pieces of that cake my mom made."

If she was an animal, I could have hear her ears perk up.

I continued "Yes, that delicious, sweet cake would be good with a nice cup of sweet tea. Oh, and I think I have some left over cookies from that Halloween Party we had-"

She threw the covers off over her, quick as a flash, and rushed to her closet where she proceeded to speed change into a blue tee-shirt and a pair of black jean with orange and red butterflies and green vines decorating the backside. I sat calmly on my own neatly made twin size bed, nearest the door, crumpling the red and white comforter in the process. I sip at my cup of hot coffee, being careful not to spill any on my purple and white shirt and blue jeans. Ah, coffee...the life-giver.

The sound of a *thud* followed by an 'almost' curse as she bumps into the door of her closet makes my eyes glance up from the cup and stifle a giggle. Another thing about her is that she has a nasty habit of cursing. I must admit though, since meeting me she has improved, making her own language to take the place of them instead. I watch as she rubs her elbow, her white skin darkening slightly to what will become a little bruise later in the day. A complete contrast to my chocolate brown skin tone.

"What happened to '5 more minutes'?" I ask, sinking deeper into my drink. She glances over at me, her shirt only halfway put on and her pants slipping slightly off her pelvis.

She coughs into her fist as she tried to look a little more dignified, "Ahem, let's just say I was thoroughly convinced otherwise." Her pants decide at that moment to slip all the way down. All in all, it was a hilarious sight. I can't help but laugh at her as she desperately pulls them up again.

"S-sorry...Ahahaha... gawd that was funny...", I titter

She blushes, "S-shut it, Kida, and hurry up with that picnic!"

I brush off her half-threat, finishing my coffee and getting up to do precisely that, "OK, ok."

HIKARI'S POV

Curse her for knowing my weakness for sweets! That's right! I have a gawd awful sweet tooth. I can't help it! My Paw-paw spoiled me on Hershey's chocolate since the day I was born, and my Maw-maw...I won't even go there. Let's just say she has a library of nothing but baking cookbooks.

I grumble as I finish dressing, finally putting on my favorite black jacket over it all. I take my messy dark brown hair and pull it back into it's signature low ponytail, being careful so as to not get it tangled when I wrap my bright orange scarf around my neck. I know it's going to be cold out there, it being close to winter and all, so I make sure to bundle up, nice and cozy like.

After a couple of minutes of me struggling to find a decent pair of matching socks, which I ended up failing in so I settle with a green M&M sock and a red M&M sock, (Hey, they both have the same logo.) I lean against the door and wait as she stuffs her Mary Poppins approved shoulder bag with various foods and art supplies. I grab my own bag as she bundles herself up and we headed out the door, being sure to grab our keys and lock it on the way out.

One long hallway, a grumpy security lady, and about three dollars each in the snack machine later, we finally escaped the slightly heated building into the chilling air of the collage campus. Red, orange, yellow and brown leaves scatter around, blown by a rouge wind that puffed against our faces, making them slightly blush. We turn right and start walking down the side of the road, following the curve until we can see the glistening of a pond in the distance.

"Crap, it's cold!" Kida mutters, shivering a tiny bit.

"Is it?", I ask. I happen to like cold weather, so I don't get cold like most people do. There's a difference between her cold and my cold. "I think you're just too skinny. Wind blows right through people like you" I snicker.

"D-daw, Shud-d-dup Hikari!" She half yells, half shudders. I take pity on her, so I take my own jacket off and drop it on her head.

KIDA'S POV

I jump and almost stumble when my vision is suddenly blotted out. After maneuvering the strange cloth out of my line of sight, I realize it's Hikari's jacket and smile at her for her kindness. I give her my bag to hold and start putting the oversized clothing on, it's fuzzy interior a good protection for the unfriendly wind

"Thanks, but isn't this too big?" I ask after zipping it up and getting the bag back. The arms are way too long and the tail goes past the back of my knees

"Hey, no prob. And it's probably because it used to be my...uh Dad's. I always get hand-me-down stuff. It was supposed to be my little brother's, but it was actually too small on him."

"Oh...that makes sense." If you've ever seen her Dad and brother, you would understand. At least, I believe it's her father. A huge, six foot tall beast of a man with no hair on his head and big muscles. At first, this seeming young man would seem very intimidating, but once you get to know him, he's actually kicking sixty or maybe seventy, a big softy and a kind father to his two children. Her brother, eight years younger than her, had surpassed her height at his age of thirteen. I don't know if she has any other sibling, and I never hear her talk about her mother. But I've learned to keep my nose out of people's business. Anyway, she is the shortest of this trio, only reaching five foot four-or-five.

But don't tell her that she's short. That will only start an hour long needless argument.

"Kida, are we there yet?" she ask, snapping me out of my daydream.

I sigh, "Just a little longer, Hikari." We continue walking in silence, down a steep hill, following the cemented path that lead us, eventually to the park. The best thing about a campus life is that everything is closely bundled together in a community-like setting. Which means that the park isn't even half a mile away.

"See? We're already here."

We arrive at a little triangle shaped inlet of land, the pond surrounding in a sloppy crescent shape. To our right is a wide arc bridge that leads to a forested area covered in a dress of late fall foliage, trees of all kinds scattering here and there, naked of their leaves. To the left is a sort of pier-like structure over the small lake, along with a long building of sorts on the opposite side, another dorm for the opposite gender.

After spreading the blanket that I had conveniently packed, we settled down onto it. First, I pulled out our drawing books, pencils, and color pencils to which she accepted awkwardly. I knew she would forget hers, being easily distracted by the idea of sweets in the near future, so I packed both of ours just in case. As I started spreading out bagged sandwiches, chip, two canteens (once with tea and one with hot chocolate), and finally the plastic-wrapped pasties down onto the ground, Hikari's eye's widened.

"Oh boy! Yummeh to da Max!" she squealed with joy, reaching for a cookie.

I lightly smacked her hand away, "Lunch now, desert later."

She pouts, but none-the-less concedes, muttering "Awww... you're a meanie." as she reaches for a ham & cheese instead.

We eat in comfortable silence for a couple of minutes, enjoying the simple tastes of sandwich meat and bread, when Hikari suddenly speaks up.

"Hey, Kida"

I swallow my bite before answering, "Hmm?"

She rubs the back of her neck, and embarrassed gesture, "You didn't happen to...fall asleep with the TV on again, did you?"

HIKARI'S POV

"What?",she asks, a confused look on her face.

"The television...did you fall asleep studying last night and forget to turn it off?"

"Uh..." she pauses, thinking a minute, "I might have. Why?"

I pause a moment before answering. I'm not sure if I should tell her about my weird dream and the guy's voice. It didn't really make any sense at the time, but the more I thought about it the more uneasy it made me. My sixth sense was beeping like crazy for some reason, probably warning me of some unseen danger. I don't want to upset or worry her or anything...but she's my friend, and deserves an answer.

"I had this, well, weird dream last night. One about games and rules and broken rules. A-and there was this guy's voice too, see? But I couldn't see his face. It didn't really make sense, so I thought I was hearing a commercial or something."

She gasps, "You heard it too?"

My eyes widen,"Huh? You mean..."

"Yeah! I heard it too! The guy's voice and the talk about a game...it was strange."

I scoff and reach for the canteen filled with tea, "More than strange. Twas FREE-KEH!"

She laughs, "Maybe you're right. Maybe it was a strange commercial. Probably about a new video game coming out or something."

Finished with my sandwich, I go and grab a cookie and nibble at it "Hmmm...I guess when you put it like that Kida..."

But something still isn't right...what is it?

"I can see that you're still thinking about it.", she states, poking my forehead, "Maybe some drawing will get your mind off of it."

She turns around so her back is facing me. I smile, and turn so that I'm facing the bridge, our backs perfectly in line as we use each other as a prop. I grab my drawing pad and flip to a clean page, then with my favorite pump-pencil, I start with a light sketch of the scene in front of me.

For minutes upon minutes, my eyes flicker back and forth between the subtle details of the bridge, from it's perfect arch to the tiniest portion in the wood pattern. From time to time I would reach for a sweet treat or sip at my tea. Only the sounds of wind, crunch of a chip, and lead against parchment was heard. Morning turned to noon before I got done with my black and white sketch, and then turned mid-evening before I finally get finished with the colored drawing. I took a deep breath and leaned my head back, my neck stiff from looking down to long. I could still hear Kida's pencil as it vignetted across her own paper. I glanced over her shoulder and, sure enough, I could see her near perfect replica of the boy's dorm, along with the rippling water of the a part of the pond that curved in front. She's always been a much better artist than I am, but I'm not jealous. It just makes me want to strive to get better!

I yawn and look back down at my own drawing, when I notice...wait what IS that?

I twist my body around so that my back is to said bridge and turn my page so that I can get a better angle with the sunlight, and glance back down at it

I repeat...WHAT IS THAT?!

On my page is a replica of the arched bridge, it's aged wood giving it a deep brown and green coloration. Yellow-orange glittered off the blue-green-brownish water reflecting the little bit of sunlight it could catch. And on the very peak of the arch was a...bunny? But this wasn't any ordinary bunny, oh no. The bunny in my drawing had a pair of glasses and was wearing a waist-coat with a red checker design on it.

"Uh...Hey...Hey, Kida" I nudged at her, not daring to let my eyes leave the page, afraid that it would disappear.

"Hmm? What is it, Hikari?" she mumbles, not looking at up from her drafting.

"No serious, Kida. L-look at this." I nudge her again. She sighs and looks up from her pad, rolling the stiffness from her neck.

"Well, what is it?" She asks. I hand her my own drawing, and her eyes get wide upon looking at it more closely. She too has to maneuver to get a better light, so she scoots over and sits to my right, our backs to the bridge.

"Please tell me that's not a rabbit in a waistcoat." I say.

"Uh...well...", she clears her throat

"Come on, Kida. Say that's not a white rabbit in a red waistcoat. Please, for the love of all that is sweet and yummy!"

"S-sorry, Hikari, but that's exactly what it is."

"Okaaaay" I say slowly "WHAT THE MATH DID YOU PUT IN MY TEA?!"

"I-I didn't do anything to your tea! But I DO think that it's gone to your head! W-what the heck were you thinking about when you were drawing?!" she exclaims, slightly flabbergasted.

"I wasn't thinking about bunnies, if that's what you mean! I was just drawing what I was seeing, like I always do!"

...

A awkward pause follows my short outburst as we both reach an equilibrium. For a minute or so we just stare at each other until she decides to break the silence.

"So that means that..."

I give her a look, "You don't think..."

Very slowly, we turn out heads toward the bridge, unsure of what we will see. And sure enough, on the apex of the bridge is the rabbit, it's ears twitching this way and that, catching any if not all sounds, as the wind slightly ruffles its short white hairs and red waist-coat. On its small pink nose is a pair of round, wide-rimmed glasses hiding its dark crimson eyes.

"Huh...what do you know" I say out load, and watch as it's ears twitch in my direction. I slowly put my supplies in my bag, so I don't startle it. I smile and pat my knees, calling it to me like I would a dog.

Kida grabs my hands and takes this chance to speak up. "Hikari, what the heck are you doing?!"

"What's it look like? I'm calling it."

She looks utterly dumbfounded, "Why?!"

I laugh at her, "Why not? Oh, don't give me that look. It's just a bunny, Kida. It's not like its gonna...i don't know...kidnap me or something." She reluctantly lets go of my hands, and I pat my knees again.

"Come here, little thing. Come on.", It's ears perk up and it hops eagerly in our direction, jumping straight into my lap and nuzzling my neck. Even Kida laughs as I struggle with the over affectionate animal.

"Hey, whoa, down boy down." I laugh and grab it underneath it's tiny arms, picking it up and plopping it in my friend's lap instead where it snuggles her just as dearly. "See, Kida? Just a rabbit, nothing weird."

"OK, ok!" she giggles, "J-just get it off! It's whiskers tickle! Hah-aha!" I laugh at her distress for a minute or two before picking it back up and setting it back in my lap, warning it to "Behave, little thing.", where it stops it's cuddling and settles down.

Kida starts gathering the blanket and things together in her purse, talking while she works, "Where do you think it came from?"

"Hmmm...", I pause and, using my index and middle finger, carefully lift it's chin to reveal it's neck. "It doesn't have a collar. Which makes no sense considering your outfit. What gender are you, anyway?" It's eyes widen, but before it tries to escape I scoop up under it's arms for a third time. His cheeks darken, and I can almost swear it's blushing.

"Hikari, leave it alone. You're embarrassing it." Kida chides, finishing up with her cleaning.

"He."

"...Huh?"

"Yup." I state bluntly, turn the wriggling rabbit a little, "Defiantly a boy. Let's see... I'll name you Peter, like the Easter bunny. For now, anyway."

"For now?" she asks, "What do you mean?"

I stand up, careful not to drop Peter, and turn toward her with a grin on my face. "Someone must be looking high and low for Mr. Peter, here. So, as my good deed of the day, I'm going to figure out who that someone is! ARE YOU WITH ME, KIDA?!

She giggles and shakes her head, "I don't have much of a choice, do I?"

I pout at her, "You're such a meanie. If you don't want to go, you don't have to, you know that."

She sighs, "But in the end, I go anyway."

I grin, "I know. Now come on before-AH! NO! PETER!"

Peter takes this moment, while I was distracted, to bound right out of my arms. I try as I might to catch him, I cant and end up tripping and falling on my face in the process. He hop and hops right over the bridge, only to stop next to the bank on the other side and stare at us.

"Ah...fudgebutter that hurts." I say, rubbing my nose. I look up and see him, just sitting there. But I could tell that it was MOCKING ME! I immediately jump up, startling Kida, who was knelt beside me to see if I was alright, and yell out as I ran over the bridge,

"OH, HEEEECK NAW! Get back her, you rabbit!"

KIDA'S POV

"HIKARI! WAIT! WHERE ARE YOU EVEN GOING!" I yell as I see her disappear across the bridge, only to see her reappear on the other side.

"IMMA GUNNA CATCH THAT RABBIT!" she yells, not bothering to stop as I see her disappear deeper into the woods. I scramble to pick up the rest of the stuff, stuffing it haphazardly into my bag, repeating 'Oh no, here we go again. Crap, crap, crap!' over and over in my head.

Once done, I immediately follow her, rushing across the bridge. In the distance I could see her chasing the rabbit that, for some reason, I couldn't see anymore.

"Hikari! HIKARI!" I shout, as I try to catch up to her, "W-wait...*pant*...up...*huff*" I chase after her for as far as my legs can take me, deeper and deeper into the forest. Eventually, they give out on me, and I bend over to catch my breath.

"Sto-stop already...*huff*",I gasp out as I sit down on a nearby stump. So engrossed in catching my breath, I didn't hear anyone come up behind me until it was too late.

"Are you alright Miss Kida?" says a deep, male voice behind me as he taps me on my shoulder.

I jump away in instinct, shying from his touch and cry out shrilly, "E-eep!"

"Please don't yell." He says simply, "My ears are very sensitive."

I turn around to find the face a strange, snow white haired man with round glasses and red eyes. He wears a red checkered coat, his undershirt a pinkish color that peeks out at the bottom and around his collar, and to finish off a red tie with the design of a clock and heart decorating
it. Around his right shoulder is a golden chain connected to an unusually large watch that rests comfortably on his left hip, hanging over dark brown khaki style pants and with red-ish brown dress shoes.

But that's not what creeps me out. On the very top of his head, matching his white hair, was a similarly colored pair of rabbit ears.

"W-w-who ARE you?", I shout at him in near hysterics "H-how do you know my name?!"

His ears drop a little, "You've forgotten me already? We were together only moments ago, though. You and your friend were so kind to me, too. E-except that part about...m-my gender." he blushes.

I have no idea what he was talking about and, thoroughly freaked, I yell, "Perv! A-A pervert! G-get back! I might not know karate but I know whoop-ass!"

He sighs, his ears flat to his head, "I asked you nicely not to yell. Oh well, I suppose it can't be helped. The game wouldn't be fun if it were easy, and since there are two of you, it will be twice as hard, which means twice the fun. So, for now, I'll pick you up and off we run!" he claps his hands enthusiastically.

I try and back away from him, but bump into a tree, "R-run?! Where?"

"I'll tell you when we get there!", then he suddenly scoops me up and throws me over his shoulder, where it presses uncomfortably into my gut knocking the wind out of me. We rush past multiple trees, my body jostling up and down as he jumps over fallen logs and such.

'I'm being KIDNAPPED! I'm being kidnapped BY A COSPLAYER! I'M BEING KIDNAPPED BY A PERVERT BUNNY COSPLAYER! OH-OHMUHGAWD! W-what do I d-do?!'.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, I see a flash of bright orange.

'HIKARI! That's right! She's still out here! M-maybe I can get her attention!'

Desperate, I pound my fists into the rabbit guy's back and start kicking my feet wildly, "P-put me down! PUT ME DOWN NOW, YOU PERVERT! H-HELP! HIKARI!"

"I'm not a pervert!", He replies, not even bothered by my tiny fists as he continually jogs deeper into the woods, "I'm Peter, Peter White!"

HIKARI'S POV

I lean against a tree, completely out of breath. I had been chasing that rabbit for a good two to three minute when I suddenly loose sight of him. And of course, me being stubborn, I thought if I just continued going in the direction I saw it go last, surely I would see him again. But, nevertheless, I completely lose him. I mean, come on! How do you lose a white rabbit in a red business suit?! Who does that?!

I turn and press my back into the cool trunk of the tree.

'Damn it...and now I go and get myself lost. Kida's gonna chew my ass out for leaving her by herself'

I hoist myself away from the tree, mentally preparing for the battle ahead, "Might as well get ba-"

"P-put me down! PUT ME DOWN NOW, YOU PERVERT! H-HELP! HIKARI!"

I twist my head around, trying to use my sensitive ears to located the well-known voice, 'I-is that Kida?! And what's this about...a PERVERT?!'

"I'm not a pervert!", a somewhat familiar male voice responds, "I'm Peter, Peter White!"

I quickly rush in the direction of the voice,

"KIDA?!"

"HIKARI! OVER HERE! PLEASE HELP ME!"

"KEEP MAKING NOISE!" I shout as loud as I can, swiftly turning and following her voice, "MAKE AS MUCH NOISE AS YOU CAN! I'M COMING!"

She starts yelling out random lyrics to her favorite anime/game theme songs, and I want to both laugh at her and yell at her because this wasn't the time for that! She gets thru couple of themes (which by the way, consisted of a Soul Eater opening, a Blue Exorcist ending, and the opening of Kamisama Kiss) and I still haven't caught up to her. I mentally curse myself to hell and back, and push my body into second gear, my chest aching from the rush of cold air into my overheated system.

Then, in the middle of Sanctuary by Utada Hikaru, I spot her, her eyes scrunched up and brown cheeks unusually flushed as she tries to beat the ever-lovin stew out of her kidnapper, who just so happens to be wearing a similar attire of the rabbit I was chasing early for some strange reason.

'Now's not the time for that, Hikari! HURRY YOU'RE ASS UP!'

"KIDA!" I yell out, running at high speed.

Her eyes flash open as she abruptly ends her solo and tears stream unabashedly down her face, "H-H-HIKARI! P-PLEASE H-HELP!"

The sight of her tears makes my sight go temporarily red.

'NO ONE MAKES MY BEST FRIEND CRY AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!'

I force myself into an unknown third gear, pissed off beyond belief. The sound of my heart-beat echos in my pounding skull and my chest constricts from not enough of air. My thighs start to burn from pressing them too hard as my feet smack harshly into the earth, pressing myself to go faster.

"I'M ALMOST THERE! HOLD ON!"

Closer and closer I get. She reaches out her hand so I can grab it and yank her out of this lunatic's hold. I glance ahead of the strange man, past his white rabbit ears ('WHAT THE FUCK?! HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THOSE?!') to see if I can cut him off.

And then I notice the hole...the very deep hole...that this guy is headed right for.

'IS THIS GUY SUICIDAL TOO?! OH FUCK!'

We still have a way's off before he get's to the inevitable drop. So I try to think, since I think better in tighter situations.

'OK, Hikari. What are you going to do now?! Calm down, but don't slow down baka! OK. The hole doesn't look very wide. THINK OF A PLAN, YOU RETARD! OK, so maybe...maybe with enough force...w-we could propel right across it! Yeah, that could work! Oh shit, but how am I-'

Then it hits me...or better yet, I'm going to hit him. Big time.

Tired and exhausted beyond belief, I forcefully press my body to go even faster. Closer and closer we run, straight to our doom.

I'm close enough to the guy that mine and Kida's fingers touch. But I don't grab her hand.

"H-Hikari, what are you-?!"

"HOLD ON TIGHT, IT'LL BE BUMPY!"

Kida gives out a shrill cry right in my ear as she clinches her eyes shut and, with one last final firm push against the ground, I push myself off and football tackle the guy. He gives out a surprised grunt as we go flying over the hole. The world seemingly goes in slow motion.

'We're gunna make it!'

But then something unexplainable happens. Something I could not have calculated because it just ain't effin possible.

The hole grew wider. Wide enough so that, no matter my effort, no matter my struggling, not matter my strength, we still pivoted toward it'd dark depths.

My body's only reaction, being over exerted and past exhaustion, is to pass out, the sound of my name being cried out being the last thing I heard before a second darkness encompasses me.

'Sorry, Kida'

OK, here's the first chappie! I'm particularly proud of it, but I would still like reviews! If I get over...lets see...5 REVIEWS I will upload another chapter (I have like 6 typed out, and counting, so don't worry)

Also, read anything peekodemeeko writes. She's the one that influenced me to start with her Jackie stories, and they r all AWSM!
